Company Christmas party!! Went very well. Great drinks, great food!! Thanks for the great service

Unique place for Houston and a must go as the weather improves. Upstairs, is exactly what this is from their sister restaurant Hungry's. The bartender was amazing with a lot of suggestions and had great knowledge of the mixed drinks as well as the beer. Had a little appetizer pizza while sitting and enjoying the indoor / outdoor vibe that overlooks the Rice village area.

The food is great, and the service is quick and helpful. It's definitely a quiet place to visit, eat calm, and listen to the long rock fountain with rocks. 4 stats because parking was difficult, took 30 minutes for food, and I was not able to go on the second floor because it wasn't ready

Did not eat at this establishment? And that is why I gave no rating for food.
Stopped in for a quick drin Possibly they need an additional bartender on weekends.
The atmosphere is a cool looking place. It is upstairs and they do have outdoor patio that I would intend to come back during the fall while it's cooler outside.

Nice place we went only for a drink early evening, the balcony outside is big good for private special event like shower, birthday gathering. The waiter was very polite and helped in picking the drink, brought 3 samples to try from. Both floors have inside and outside. Recommended.

I liked the vibe and feel of the place. Big spot and seems like a good social spot.
Food was okay. Nothing blew me away about it.
I'd give it a 3.5 if that was an option but I'll go with a 4 since there isn't.

I went here with my mom for lunch and happy hour yesterday. We started downstairs and had a wonderful lunch. We both had the fried chicken and mouse cake for dessert. The gimlet cocktail on happy hour was excellent and all made with fresh basil. We had a great time and love the patio upstairs!

Different atmosphere upstairs. Great food and service was bad. The group was too big for one waiter. He was overwhelmed and it showed.
