The ambience was excellent -- dimly lit, cozy, and perfect for a relaxed night out.

It's cute, moody, and has that feeling like you're not even in Houston anymore. It's not a big space, so it does get pretty loud between the music and everyone talking. The music was just okay. If you like house music, you'll probably enjoy it here. The DJ did mix in some popular hip-hop, R&B, and reggaeton songs throughout the night, which I appreciated. We started with shots that were really good. They tasted almost like a shot of honey, but unfortunately I can't remember the name. We all ordered the Dolce Limone next, which was sweet and refreshing. For the next round, my cousin got the Mango something, and I ordered the French Connection. The French Connection was awful. It tasted like straight-up cough syrup, and I couldn't even pretend to finish it. Our last round was Palomas, and those were good. In between drinks, we ordered the meat and cheese board. It was cute and made for a nice little snack, but there was nothing particularly special about the selection. The waitresses were nice, and overall we had a good time. I genuinely don't have much bad to say about the place other than the drinks. They're not bad across the board, but they're also nothing particularly special, especially for the price. There are definitely better cocktail lounges in Houston if you're looking for actual mixology and cocktails that justify the price.

Although I like the Gray St. location a little better taste wise for my dynamite shrimp, I think that the University Blvd location is easier to get a reservation. This is a really good choice for date night, a family event or a girl's night. Always nice, clean and bright. Surprisingly, the chicken Parm is one of my favorite dishes here. It's probably top two for me and I've had a lot of chicken Parm. The burger is my second choice; it is so good! One of my favorite appetizers is the Dynamite Shrimp and the salad that's under has a fire dressing that they should bottle. But overall, I've tried several things with the people I've gone with, and there's nothing bad on the menu. Definitely get a reservation in advance... This isn't really a place you can just walk in unless you're sitting at the bar and you've gotten there at a good time. Parking is valet at the gray street location. It's very hard to find regular parking there. You can find parking pretty easily at the University Blvd location. My only real complaint is the service is slow... And I've had different servers at different locations and they all don't really move with a sense of urgency. It takes them a while to get back to you so you can place an order... It takes a while for them to bring out your drinks. Overall, just slow service and that's why I deducted a star.

The cocktails were O.K, one margarita came out as tequila on the rocks, which was just ridiculous, and the staff have a basic idea of what goes into a mojito, but no real skill at making one. We were five appetizers into the experience when one of the hostesses sauntered over and loudly proclaimed, " Due to very busy, you dining experience is limited to 90 minutes" Yes, she spoke that way. She them proceeded to mean mug us for the next 45 minutes as we pushed past 90 minutes as a form of protest. We quit purchasing food, and drink and just sat there looking at her, daring her to come over and enforce her little power trip time limit. Never happened. The food was amazing, very well done. Thee waiter was amazing, he understood the mission and was tipped very well. But the bartenders, and the hostesses brough the experience down to a lowly one star.

I went on a Saturday night for a friend's birthday, and it was nearly empty. We were given the impression there is a dress code when the venue was picked about a month ago, but they took that page off their site two weeks later. In fact, the who site looks different. We can only assume ownership changed, because it seems like they are trying to be a business casual sports lounge now. The drink I ordered is listed as a virgin drink, so I asked the bartender to add either vodka or gin. It wasn't bad, but the prices make it not worth it.

We (five of us) dropped in on a Saturday night after Clarkwood's cocktails got us into a vibe. No line, no cover... we headed straight to the dance floor. We didn't try any of their craft cocktails by this late in the night--it was straight tequila and soda. The two-story/balcony overlooking the dance floor was perfect for people watching. And there was plenty of open lounge seating for my tired 40-something legs. The DJ--a female, yussss baby!--was amazing. So many old skool tunes and the dance floor was packed the entire time we were there. And yes, I danced. The crowd ranged mostly 20-30-somethings... but we weren't the oldest in the room. Loved seeing a group of ~50-something ladies celebrating something special with bottles popping. Get it, honey!

We arrived around 5:00 PM, but an employee told us we were too early and to come back in about two hours. As they said it, they made a dismissive hand gesture for us to move along, which came across as rude and unwelcoming. No explanation was given for why they weren't open despite the posted hours. Unfortunately, the interaction left a bad first impression, so we decided to go elsewhere and ended up enjoying happy hour at another spot. We'd still be willing to give this place another try, but I hope they either update their posted hours if they've changed or open at the advertised time to avoid confusing future customers.

I had a citrusy G&T, some sort of watermelon shot brought over from management... and wine. I'd def go back for their social hour. My ONLY qualm is the restroom sitch: There are only two stalls. And the line for the women's restroom was always long. Would be great if they made both restrooms gender-neutral... and maybe add a few more.
