Relish Restaurant has removed the B.L.T. sandwich from their menu. It was probably one of their most popular items. I do not understand why owners or management delete favorites of the customers. I will enjoy my B.L.T. in another restaurant and not be returning here.

Relish is our FAVORITE spot in Houston for Bistro cuisine. We appreciate the friendliest, most-attentive service, excellent cocktails and an exceptional warm welcome each and every time. WE also love to sit at the bar! We never have to worry about sacrificing attentiveness and we enjoy the friendly, accomplished bartenders. Food is dependably good and something for everyone. Relish is our go-to most any night of the week, better than home because we don't have to do the dishes - but equally comfortable and exceptionally welcoming.

Relish is a regular go-to! I own a business in Upper Kirby and enjoy taking clients and friends there for lunch, dinner, and even breakfast on Sundays. There is a wide-ranging, excellent menu, with something to please everyone. The cocktails are great. I'm especially fond of the East Side martini! The service is always tops and I'm never disappointed!

A neighborhood gem. My 2nd, my husband's 1st visit. It was lunch on a Tuesday. It was busy. Our waiter, Megan, was very nice and attentive. She made great recommendations. The devil eggs and crab dip appetizers were both on point. My husband had spaghetti. He loved it! I had the lobster roll. It was ok. The serving size was good, but it could use a bit more flavor, so I added some of the crab dip to it. Michael, the GM, was nice as well. Love the weekday happy hour. I'll certainly be back to experience more menu items.
