Adair Downtown is a nice sit down restaurant located in the Tunnel Level of the Wells Fargo building. They have a variety of offerings for breakfast, lunch, and little treats for in between. They have fresh pastries, breakfast tacos, breakfast entries (my favorite being their oatmeal). They have several grab and go options as well. I've sat down a few times for lunch and enjoy their steak frites. Service is always attentive and friendly. read more

I actually really loved my dish but I found a flying gnat in my dish, after a while of eating my dish. It was disappointing and I will not be returning to this location. Although service was great and environment looked clean it is unfortunate. read more

This is my trash can. This is the turkey burger I usually order. They changed the recipe to a flavorless turkey burger with black beans. Yuck. I rather lick my dog's feet. At least they smell like Fritos (which are delish). read more

Decided to come here with coworkers for lunch after passing it everyday on my daily walk in the tunnels. It always looks packed so I felt it must be decent! And I was right. This place is really good. I love how nice it is decorated and the chairs are padded. The service is really good too. I really appreciated the full service for being downtown and in the tunnels. I had the turkey club which was really big and delicious with sweet potato fries. I think it was around $15 for this plate and I had the leftovers for lunch the next day. I'll be back! read more

Adair Downtown - Turkey club - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Houston, Texas

Love the atmosphere, the service and the drinks are the best!... the food options are the best. My favorite place to sit is at the bar.

Intro: Before a performance at Alley Theatre, we stopped by Adair Downtown for an early dinner. I'm familiar with Adair from their restaurant in the Galleria area so I was excited to check out this location. It's a little tough to find as it's in the basement of a skyscraper but we figured it out. Ambiance (4/5): Dining in a basement can be fun too. You'll see the modern, fresh decor that you're used to at Adair here too. It's a nice dining experience. Service (5/5): We had a fantastic waitress. We were in a time crunch and she took care of us promptly and efficiently. With a smile on her face. This is the type of service all restaurants should strive for. Drinks (3.5/5): I had a bottled fresh juice which is always a nice touch. Just a little pricey. Food (4/5): I had the burger with fries and this is a solid burger y'all. The fries were crisp and flavorful. It was a generous portion. And the burger was cooked well with a fresh bun and all of the usual additions. It filled me just in time for the show. Overall: If you're looking for a good spot prior to a show in the theater district, your options are going to be limited. Adair Downtown makes for a fine choice. read more

I LOVE ADAIR'S DOWNTOWN LOCATION!!! BEST Restaurant for Breakfast, Lunch, & Happy Hour after work!!

Thank you Adairs for your amazing food & service! read more

I can't speak for everyone but Johnathan is always very kind. Thank you for always making my experience a good one!

Great place to eat downtown. Good food and good prices. They are pretty efficient at handling wait times.

One of the best nice casual full service spots downtown. In the tunnel but has natural light, full bar, pleasant ambiance and really good food for breakfast and lunch. So glad Adair opened a downtown location. I go regularly for lunch and typically easy seating or a tiny wait. Service is always professional and on point. Very efficient but not rushed. Today I took two guests and everyone had my usual, fish tacos. They are great! You choose your own side and I love either the sweet potato fries or asparagus. Love the artichoke soup and power bowl too. Also a fan of their ice tea. read more

The food is always hot, fresh and delicious - it's a great place for a working meeting.

A group of coworkers and I are very new to downtown working. Downside - commute, upside - shiiiit all these restaurants! We were walking around the tunnels and happened upon Adair. It's in the Wells Fargo Plaza tunnel and is a cute sit down spot. It also has a quick to go section if you're on the move. I decided to go with the Blackened Shrimp & Goat Cheese Salad. I really enjoyed the meal, it was light and since carbs don't work well for me, walking back to my tunnel wasn't a chore. The only thing I didn't like was the salad came dressed. I'd request on the side if I get their salads again. They also offer bottled 20 oz for soft drinks...I wasn't expecting the 3.50/4 price tag but I guess girl! My coworkers ordered fish tacos and Prime Rib French Dip and had no complaints. The service was spectacular. Hispanic gentleman, I wanna say he said his name was Mike but I've been eating out so damn much, I might be wrong. He was funny, super helpful and friendly and when I told him I'm a foodie, we all started discussing good seafood and bbq restaurants in the city to try. Now I was trying to take my whole team back and couldn't find a way to reserve a table. Idk if you can through phone but when we got there, everybody and their mama and mama's mama was trying to eat. It was a rainy day with packed tunnels. Restaurant is rather small so party of 6 was estimated over 30 min wait. Lesson learned... read more

I was in town for the work week. My coworker suggested this place for efficient and good service as well as healthy food which is in short supply in work catered events. I started with a bowl of lemon artichoke soup. It was delicious with a light lemon flavor. Then I had the blackened goat cheese salad. It was delicious with pink in seeds and a light dressing. I highly recommend this place! The server was friendly and service was great! Window design makes for natural light. read more

Adair Downtown - Artichoke and lemon soup and blackened goat cheese salad - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Houston, Texas

Went here on a corporate lunch with my team, as it's located in the middle of downtown. The ambiance gives french cafe vibes and there is a Adair cafe located right outside for a quick drink to-go. The food here is always super fresh and the food is one of the top options in downtown. The fries have a nice crunch, and the burger is moist paired with the buns. The service is questionable to say the least. They need to hire more employees to keep up with the lunch rush. Our whole team had empty glasses that needed to be refilled (which were never refilled). Additionally, it took quite a while for us to even place our order. Overall, Adair is a solid 4.5/5 and would visit more frequently if the service was better. read more

Located underground beneath the Wells Fargo/PWC tower. It looks like a solid power lunch spot with a modern and clean interior that is located in a pretty good spot; downtown wise. We've come by for drinks and for breakfast; Pros: convenient tunnel access, modern interior Cons: Food is pretty average/ non extraordinary, service is very slow. Overall, there are much better and much less desirable breakfast spots. It's convenient in terms of tunnel access but I wouldn't recommend it for the food alone. Coming by with a group for a drinks would be the ideal spot. read more

We decided to go in the downtown tunnels on Friday afternoon, and not get lost.. lol. So we entered the tunnels at the Wells Fargo building. After wandering around awhile, we decided to have a snack at Adair Kitchen. We sat at the bar, and all ordered the lemon ice box pie. I also ordered a lemon drop martini, which competed with my lemon dessert. Both were very good, and we enjoyed talking to people who work there, a very nice Russian lady and a German lady: The restaurant is very clean and attractive. Give it a try.. they're not only in the tunnel; they have other locations. read more

Went here for lunch. Seated rather quickly considering I was told it would be 20 min; it took 5 minutes. Ordered the chicken sandwich and was disappointed. The bun was atrocious. It was hard and crumbled into chunky pieces before even biting into it. It ruined the whole sandwich. It's like the bread wasn't fresh? Our waitress, V, was nice but was never around. We saw her maybe 4 times. Greet, brought waters, took order, gave us check. Never came back to the table to ask how we were or how the food was. If she did I would've had a chance to tell her about my bun. Later I had to flag her down for our check. I probably won't be back. They stay busy though due to their location. read more

The food is a hit or miss to me here. Downtown options I feel like are expensive and the food quality isn't that great - this is not an exception. I've ordered here a few times, including the grain bowl with tuna, salads, black bean quinoa patty. All of these were okay to me. I do give this place has a nice ambiance though for a work lunch. The vibe is nice! read more

I'm already obsessed! I've been longing for a restaurant on this side of downtown where I could grab lunch, a snack, or breakfast and Adair has truly come through (though I haven't tried lunch yet). They have quick grab and go items such as overnight oats or pre-made tacos, salads and sandwiches or you can order from the menu. On my first visit, I ordered the custom breakfast taco and added hash browns and avocado to plain eggs. The eggs were fluffy and seasoned well and the tortilla was fresh and warm. I've since tried a few pastries on different days which were all amazing, the cinnamon roll is more of a flaky croissant roll and my favorite so far. Service Is great and the decor reminds me of a farmer's market on one side, and a laidback bar on the other. read more

A friend of mine and I went to Adair Downtown for happy hour right after a long day of work. First of all, a huge negative was how difficult it was to find the restaurant. It is inside a building in the lower levels. The other was that this very very small spot is made to look much larger and much more attractive via social media, but I don't really think I would recommend it. Where we entered the restaurant, it just looked like an airport convenience store, where I'm assuming this model is conducive to a large flow of lunch traffic from the building employees. It's just a little off putting if you don't work their. You almost feel like you're about to get cafeteria food before you sit down. We sat down and when we asked about happy hour, which was heavily promoted through social media, we were told they did not have one, but they did have bar bites. We ordered drinks, a dirty martini and a sparkling rosé and ordered the Brussels sprouts, a prosciutto flat bread, and the prime rib sliders. The drink section will be rather short. The Brit rose I ordered was MUCH too expensive and came in a very small, barely filled champagne flute. Wouldn't recommend. And the dirty martini, according to my friend, was also pretty lack luster and not that great. If you're just going for a drink after work, we wouldn't recommend. The prosciutto flat bread was actually pretty good, but the prosciutto was very over cooked making some pieces very hard to chew. The prime rib sliders were an incredible disappointment. I was expecting the burger patty like sliders, but received what looked like very thinly sliced over cooked roast beef. Another disappointment was with the undercooked "caramelized" onions. It tasted awful and very much like prepackaged cafeteria food, which is sad because the a jus was good and so was the sauce on the sliders. The Brussels sprouts were however, so of the best I have ever had! They were crispy and not at all oily. To this day I think about these. TLDR: Brut Rose: 0/5 Dirty Martini: 0/5 Brussels Sprouts: 5/5 Prosciutto Flat Bread: 2/5 Prime Rib Sliders: 1/5 read more

I finally moved back to a job in downtown and started going to Adair because it's within perfect walking distance of my office and near some old co-workers. In fact, it was the last spot where I had a happy hour in early March 2020 before work from home became the norm and happy hours were put on pause. I now work downtown 3 days a week and stop by Adair at least 2-3 times for a quick lunch or an after work drink and snack. It has definitely become my new favorite place and I look forward to seeing not only old friends but also the employees who are always friendly, efficient, and professional. I've recommended multiple business lunches/dinners take place here and the people I've brought always come away impressed with the ambience, the food, and the drink selections. Stormy and Vanessa are great bartenders, while Kevin and Arlyne are extremely fast and attentive servers. I would be remiss if I didn't mention Lena the GM who is the engine behind the entire operation and ensures she gets the very best out of her employees. read more

DO NOT use this restaurant! They are thieves! I walked out with a food bill of $49.25, then when the charge posted, it was $54.25. When I called and spoke with management, they wanted to give me the runaround saying that it would take them a few days to find my ticket and "investigate". I wasted 3 days playing around with them until I had to get my card company involved and they took over to get my refund back. This restaurant is super dishonest and I will never be visiting it again, and I don't recommend you guys do it either. read more

Awesome staff, excellent food and desserts. Great atmosphere, very clean and friendly staff. The menu has a good variety of dishes--from salads to steak. I have had about everything on the menu more than once, all dishes were well prepared and reasonably priced. I and my co-workers frequent this location for lunch and the food is consistently very good. Try it you--will not be disappointed. read more

Clean updated venue that stays busy with those of us that work downtown. If you don't work downtown and ate simply enjoying the downtown view, this is a great place to have a nice lunch, dinner or happy hour. Food is delicious and served well portioned.

Adair Downtown is a hidden gem in the tunnel beneath the Welles Fargo Plaza. The food is excellent and at a very fair price.

OMG this place is a gem. I'll start off with the salads, so good! My favorite, but I've never had a bad meal here even when not salads. Everything is so fresh and delicious. Even the baked goods (danishes are my guilty pleasure ). The staff is wonderful as well. There's not a lot of people working there, but Jennifer is my favorite! Always so helpful and friendly. She makes good drinks too! Def check this place out if you're in the area read more

I had to give an update on my review because I just wanted to add another one of my favorites from this place. The breakfast tacos and English tea was *chef's kiss*! It's my staple food for breakfast. If I haven't said this before I will say it now: the prices are reasonable, the food is delicious, the atmosphere is nice, and the servers are friendly. I would recommend 10/10! read more

Good food. Clean. Nice ambiance with the location being in a cool secluded spot. It gets busy there since the prices are reasonable. Oh, and the fresh baked goods are so delish!

They are a hidden gem well worth learning about if you are hungry! read more

Great healthy stop if you're downtown. The sweet potatoes were phenomenal, and the hamburger had great flavor as well. I wish it was a little less cooked however. The salad was also good but I did wish the dressing had a little more flavor as well. Overall I would come back. read more

We wished the menu had more choices and the service was subpar. Our server wasn't very friendly at all. My Chicken Paillard was pretty good but it was a grilled chicken breast so.... I guess it could have been extremely dry. 2 in our party had the steak sandwich which was just mediocre. Another had the Turkey club which she claimed had too much bread. With all the choices in downtown Houston, I probably won't be back. read more
