We went here for Christmas dinner and this place did not disappoint!! Beautiful restaurant w special details everywhere down to the cutlery, glasses and beautiful cocktails along w food presentation. Our server was very professional, efficient and friendly, especially being it was a holiday. I cannot remember her name but she made our experience that much better! Only complaint was we arrived at 5pm and were told cocktails and wine was half off, which we found generous. However when our check arrived, my dirty martini was not half off and quite pricey, nor was my red wine. When my husband mentioned the fact, server said ordered after HH ended, but not the case! We got our check at 7:11 and I ordered my martini upon arrival and my wine around 6:20. So something went wrong w the drink prices but my husband’s both drinks were HH prices. We will definitely return!

We visited on Christmas Eve at lunch and enjoyed a nice meal served by Carlos Sabogal. Carlos was knowledgeable and helpful with selections, with everything from champagne to appetizers and mains. We had a great meal, well worth the drive of 3 1/2 hours from Wimberley.

As always, everything was excellent. The service was attentive but not intrusive, the food was delicious and the sound was cushioned so voices didn’t carry.

Great lunch menu reasonably priced for quality. Must is the Cajun Hot Crab Dip and crispy chicken salad. Attentive, friendly service.

Always excellent - everything about a fine-dining restaurant. The special Opulence 4-course meal was great. I thought the oysters intro dish was too salty. The salad had more apples than usual. Steak and lobster were perfect. This is one of our most favorite splurges in Houston.
