    My husband and I have been dining here for years now. We come here on special occasions only but every time we come the food is always good and we are always happy and satisfied. First of all, we love the aesthetic of this place and patio dining here on a cool day is relaxing. We came here for lunch because it was my birthday and it's Houston Restaurant Weeks. We ordered the summertime salad, snapper, chicken fried chicken, gumbo, and warm croissant bread pudding. We have not been here for months now and everything we ordered was delicious! I highly recommend ordering these items if you are going to eat here for lunch during HRW. The service was great and because it was my birthday they gave me a complimentary carrot cake which was delicious also. They have self-parking during the day in their small parking lot and valet only at night. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant.

    Food was fabulous , atmosphere was great, service was perfect. Definitely great place for date night! I noticed people dress up or go a little business casual. Nicer restaurant prices but worth it!

    Wow! What a special treat. We were invited here for a birthday dinner with friends. The atmosphere is unique with lots of taxidermy mounts surrounding the main dining area. Being that my husband and his friend are avid hunters, we appreciated seeing all the unique game animals. I particularly thought the reindeer mount was cool. Next, the food! Every dish was a work of art. Most reviews raved about the gumbo and boy was it worth raving about. Delicious! You can get it to go by the quart if you wish. I had exotic meats I have never tasted before like fallow and red stag. It was an adventure to try all the meats prepared in lots of delicious ways. My main course, the Nilgai was prepared perfectly. So tender and perfectly seasoned. I hardly had room for dessert, which was the croissant bread pudding. So good! My husband and I shared that. Our waiter made nothing, but wonderful recommendations to us as to what to select and how to have it cooked. It was an incredibly pleasant experience and we hope to dine in again and will recommend to all adventurous friends.
