Elegant, award-winning steakhouse serving dry-aged prime beef, seafood & exceptional wines.
We usually go to the original location on Westhiemer. We had a concert to go to this evening. Been here a few times.Easy to get a reservation on a Saturday night, luckily. Easy valet parking, great bar area with a piano player. Seated quickly. Celebrating my sisters birthday..Waiter was pronto, asked about allergies, told us about the specials, brought our drinks and their awesome hot loaf of bread with real butter.We usually order and share. The filet are the best, though they have a complete assortment of dry and wet aged choice and cuts of beef. We split a 12 oz filet medium rare, and my favorite and best anywhere flash fried gulf oysters with a remoulade and cocktail choice of dipping sauces. Lightly battered and delicious. Order of the au gratin potatoes and the monster asparagus. All cooked to perfection. They asked us earrly on if we had a celebration and when we ordered dessert, the sticky gooey pecan pie alamode, they comped the desert. Great food, great night was had..

We loved our Power Lunch yesterday in this pretty restaurant! The lunch consisted of a starter, an entree, and dessert! The Lobster Bisque was awesome....maybe the best I have tasted! The house salad was very large. Beef Medallions were very good....a bit over cooked for rare, but very tender! Fried Shrimp were amazing! We took dessert âto goâ! Chocolate Cake and Carrot Cake weâre both wonderful! Our experience was delightful, partly due to our server Norma Jean! She was great!

Eddie Vâs is a fabulous seafood restaurant.I started with the Maine lobster tacos, they came with with plenty of lobster and were absolutely delicious. My second course was the halibut in a miso broth with shiitake mushrooms and just the right amount of chilies. The meal was spectacular. Excellent service, I thoroughly recommend Eddie Vâs

Chef-owner Mike Tibiâs vision for an upscale, yet relaxed, fine dining restaurant is a must-visit for locals and visitors looking for the best dining experience in Houston. Since opening our doors in 2005, Mezza Grille excels at pleasing our guestâs taste
For about 10 years, I have been going to Mezza for lunch about twice a month and the food is consistently excellent. I love the fried pita chips they bring when you are seated - but canât eat them anymore on my current diet. The lunch specials are large portions and a decent value. My favorite is the kefta beef kebab - usually as a salad, and sometimes as a wrap. The wrap comes with French fries, which are crispy and delicious. The chicken swarma is also very good. Service is usually attentive and fast, unless the place is full. Highly recommend Mezza. Thank you so much paulnL3625KW for this GREAT REVIEW and for your patronage in the past 10 years.We are extremely glad & honored to know that we still meet your high expectations of food & service all these years.Thank you again & we are looking forward to seeing you & serving you soon.

Wonderful atmosphere and service! If you want a good steak, it's here but a bit pricey. A really neat spot with many historical artifacts (you can get a guide). Food was fresh and served hot. We collectively had the tenderloin medallions, the prime rib, and a burger. Burgers and medallions were great. Prime Rib was good - a little tough and bland but overall tasty. Salad bar is nice offering fruit and cheese in addition to salad fare. Homemade mini bread loaves were to die for! Cornbread a little dry and cheese rolls were good. The waitress was attentive and knew her business, but honestly lacked personality. All her responses seemed practiced and often was removing items before we'd finished with them.

Monnalisa is a must visit! Great atmosphere and amazing service. You cannot go wrong if Patrick is behind the bar. He is phenomenal. Make sure to ask for him!! Solid happy hour with a variety of drink options.

Wonderful steaks and great sides. Good selection of wines. Great bar at both locations. Although the Westheimer location has been open for decades I think I prefer the downtown restaurant. Food is great at both locales but downtown dining room seems more spacious.
