Best Romantic Restaurants in W. University / Med Center

A unique experience in Houston full of elegance and refinement. The service is outstanding and the ambiance very cosy. There is a lot of creativity in the plates and everything is delightful and very well presented. The story around the different courses is very interesting and the whole experience is real journey. We highly recommend this address.

We really dug the vibe. The interior is really stylish. The only thing we thought that was lacking was our particular server’s service. When I requested a second cocktail and asked him to surprise me with something vodka based, he brought a “French 76”, made with vodka instead of gin. Notwithstanding whether or not such a drink exists vis a vis the known “French 75” drink, he should have known that I had JUST finished a French 75, in part because I had the same gin style glass on my table. This is not service I would expect from a Michelin level restaurant (I know this one did not get one, but maybe you are gunning for it), many of which me and my wife have been too, including multiple Three Star restaurants! The waiter should be more aware as being delivered such a drink might be thought of as being lazy or dismissive towards the diner. My wife and I are well prepared to pay large amounts for a top notch dinner as well, and we are more likely to do so when a restaurant succeeds in ALL categories.

Our waiter provided superb service and allowed us ample time to enjoy our meal. The food was amazing and reminded me of my trip to Florence. The wine selection can’t be beat and all at a great price point. Great restaurant!!

We always enjoy our time at this intimate romantic restaurant that feels like you are eating in someone’s home! Try the homemade lemonchello!

Our dinner at Drake’s was just what we needed for a date night and a special time together for my boyfriends birthday. I appreciate the grace as we were running late and the team was accommodating and kind, even though we were behind schedule and closing was at 10p. Thank you for the hospitality. A little bit of kindness goes very long way.
