    Delicious food! Great place to eat for groups. The location is great, and atmosphere was fun. Our waiter did an excellent job as well. Try the spinach dip for an app, the steak, or the scallops, and definitely give the brussel sprouts a go. Everyone at our table cleared their plates!

    I always enjoy going to the Rustic. The portobello mushroom with Chimichurri is so delicious. The chicken tortilla soup is so delicious, I wish I could get a pint to go. Our sever was very kind, attentive and friendly. Valet is very efficient and friendly. We are going back at the end of the month.

    At one point, I was one of the top 10 customers at the Houston Palm in their old location. I have never been to the downtown location under the Landry‘s group. I was very pleasantly surprised. The food was exceptional and well in accordance with what I have been used to in the glory days of the palm. I’ll definitely be back although downtown it’s a bit of a hassle.

    Fantastic dining experience. We took our daughter for her birthday. Her first time. Service from Jillian was top notch and the steak and sides could not have been any better. We will be back soon.
