    What a horrible experience! This is a nice restaurant, don’t take me wrong. However, yesterday’s visit was absolutely horrible. The hostess was simply obnoxious, aggressive and wouldn’t cooperate with any of our requests. First of all, we were told to wait outside until all 5 of us are together. Then she declined our request for a patio seating, where there were still lots of open tables. Eventually a waitress took us there, but it took 20 min just to get there. Then we had to wait another hour and a half for the food to show up. We used to pop in to il Bracco often, especially for lunch, and it was nice. It’s sad to see a good place going down like this.

    We enjoyed our meal here. The food was pretty good, but honestly overpriced for what you get. I can’t say it is the best Italian in the area. The Italian sundae was delicious!

    My wife and I had a fantastic dining experience at Il Bracco - Post Oak, and I can’t wait to return. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, and the service was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive. The highlight of my meal was undoubtedly the center cut filet mignon—perfectly cooked to a tender, buttery finish with just the right amount of seasoning. Each bite melted in my mouth, making it one of the best steaks we’ve had in Houston. The Al Limone (linguine, shrimp, lemon, chives and bread crumbs), while beautifully presented, could have used a bit more depth in flavor. A touch more seasoning or a richer sauce could elevate the dish to match the restaurant’s otherwise high standards. I would not order this dish again. Overall, Il Bracco - Post Oak delivers an elevated dining experience with top-notch ingredients, expertly prepared dishes, and a sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend it, especially for steak lovers.

    Delays to be sorted and delays during service on a busy Friday night. Waiters were professional and manager was very attentive and professional. Overall a good experience.

    The food was wonderful!! My Chicken Piccata was the most tender chicken I have ever had. It was so nice to have an excellent waitress with knowledge of the menu AND who watched our table without interrupting conversation
