Our server was very helpful and reviewed all the different types of food. He also brought me a taste of two different wines so I could choose the one I liked best. We never felt rushed and we were able to talk with our friends even when the dining room was full. That is rare in most Houston restaurants. Everyone enjoyed our drinks and food, including the carefully packed leftovers.

A early lunch with friends was made most enjoyable by the tasteful decor and sound dampening ceiling installed in the Bistro. We were able to converse easily. The menu offered both light and hearty dishes. The potato and manchego cheese balls appetizer provided enough for three people. The French Onion soup did not satisfy the traditional expectations. Rather than brûléed cheese atop french bread, the cheese sank to the bottom. Flavor was good though. The entrees of trout, quiche Lorraine and chicken and artichoke crepes were delicious and well cooked. The mash of cauliflower and potatoes was served with a generous dollop of butter. The cold zucchini side was very tasty as were the chunky Bistro fries. The side salad was fresh but the oil was too strong. Acid or salt would have helped brighten the flavor. Staff was attentive without being intrusive. Prices were reasonable for an elevated dining experience.

Second year in a row for Galentines. We very much enjoyed the food and the tea.
