    Had a great dinner here during their reverse happy hour! Highly recommend visiting during their reverse HH, for half off glass of wine and pizza. Forgot to get photos of our pizzas, but they were great. We got the Rosie's Supreme (very delicious, our favorite) and the Pizza Alla Nerano (also good). They also give you complimentary small pours of a sparkling red (Lambrusco) upon seating, which we ended up ordering a glass of. Staff were very friendly and loved the ambience. Will be back!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]I really enjoyed the vibes and food![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Deazia was superb! She exceeded all expectations and hospitality was deff served. She was knowledgeable, friendly and bubbly! Excellent recommendations as well. We started with a complimentary bubbly - CLETO CHIARLI (very light and sweet, quite enjoyed it). Also, got a classic margarita with Reposado and Tajin on the rim (stronggg but good). For apps, we got the CARROT BRAVAS & BURRATA (had a nice crunch) and ROASTED CORN (flavorful). My favorite Main was deff the Pepperoni Pizza (the crust was crispy and bread itself was chewy as well, the tiny pepperoni were tasty as well. I'd just come back for the pizza itself). My other favorite was the CAVATELLI ALLA BOLOGNESE (by far my favorite pasta shape of the night and the texture was perf. Very fresh and made in house. The sauce was great as well and paired well). A special note is that they have HH half off pizza and cocktails on Tues-Sun 9pm-10pm dine in only. For dessert, you must try their CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE A LA MODE (brown butter cookie that's homemade and warm with some icecream was keyyyy). Their honey cake was also notable and delish. We also got to try a variety of gelatos (vanilla, mint and pina colada - my fave). Overall, can't wait to be back for more pizza! Parking - Valet or avail handicap parking in their plaza [[HIGHLIGHT]]Restrooms - individual stalls and clean/dark[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Visited Rosie's on a Saturday night for pizza and some wine! I had a reservation and sat at the bar. Austin was one of the bartenders and he was amazing--he did not miss with his suggestions! One of his suggestions was the Cacio e Pepe pizza (added sausage and mushrooms) and it was delicious! No notes really! I really enjoyed the staff, everyone was friendly and had a nice aura! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also, not sure who was on the aux but the playlist was fire. They played songs that if you knew, you vibed![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I am definitely returning!

    Carrots and burrata. I would visit there ten times over for this dish alone!
    Jennifer H.

    All that and then some! This place is a just as spectacular as everyone says it is. From starters to drink to dessert. You can't go wrong with anything. We started with a classic G&T along with this carrot and burrata dish that was such a unique blend of flavor and texture. I could eat about four bowls. Their pizzas are classically great, but don't forget to add some dipping sauces or you are missing out. The honey cake is simply delicious, add an espresso martini to kick it up a notch! Overall A++++ in every aspect!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lovely ambiance!! Perfect for a date or a girls night out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great happy hour at 9pm, half off pizzas and booze. Absolutely loved the cacio e pepe pizza, knew this place deserved the Michelin regard after taking a bite. Cocktails are very fun and strong! On the sweeter side for most, our server gave us great recommendations.

    I went to Rosie Cannonball with a group of friends on a Saturday night to celebrate my birthday, and it was such a great experience. Make a reservation -- it's an absolute must. They also offer complimentary valet, which is super convenient (just don't forget to tip your driver!). Even though it was packed, our waiter was incredibly sweet and attentive the entire night. They started us off with some complimentary wine and we paired that with the focaccia, which was warm, fluffy, and delicious. For pizzas, we ordered two: the spinach artichoke dip pizza, which was good with great flavor, and the hot honey pepperoni pizza, which completely stole the show. It was a 10/10 -- so good that I already have another reservation this weekend just to go back for it. For dessert, we had their famous honey cake, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. It's a must-order -- seriously, save room for it. We also tried the chocolate chip à la mode, which was really good, and since it was my birthday, our waiter brought out some gelato, which was a really nice touch and tasted great. For drinks, I had an amaretto sour and the Montrose Mami -- both were good, but I especially loved the Montrose Mami. It's basically like a piña colada and super refreshing. Overall, this place is popular for a reason. If you haven't tried it yet, you definitely should.

    Chicken Basquaise was delicious.
    Violet H.

    Went to here to celebrate my birthday and it did not disappoint. The food was amazing! Here is what we got and what I would recommend... The Focaccia is a must, 10/10 The tuna tartare also delicious 8/10 We ordered 3 pizzas - the pepperoni 9/10, supreme 9/10, and cacio e pepe 10/10. The cacio e pepe is a must. It was outstanding. Our sever recommended the salsa verde with it and he was right. Btw.. get all 3 sauces and the hot honey. They are delicious and will elevate your pizza experience. We also got the chicken basquaise 9/10 and the bolognese 10/10. All chefs kiss. Dessert - the honey cake was incredible 10/10 and the rhubarb was great 8/10. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Vibe and ambiance 10/10 - cool place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Now, the server was ok. Nothing special, not very attentive. Could have honestly been better, given the fact that they have a bib gourmand recognition and there's a lot of buzz surrounding it. I would definitely recommended this place. We will def be back.

    Pepperoni Pizza
    Jamaal W.

    My colleague Maria put me on to Rosie's. I knew I could trust her pizza reviews and I'm glad I listened. I came specifically for the pepperoni pizza and it was worth it! Fresh ingredients and a nice crust, and I opted for extra pepperoni to make sure I wasn't disappointed. It was a lazy weekend night for me so I placed a carry out order, but next time I'll be dining in. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience of the dining room is perfect for a date night or a solo date to indulge in a guilty pleasure.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall 9/10.

    Complementary Lambrusco Mezcal cocktail
    Mel S.

    I'm really confused as to why the reservation list is booked out a week in advance, because this place simply did not live up to the hype. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While the service was great and the ambience was nice, the food was a huge letdown.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Pepperoni Pizza: The crust lacked flavor and had a cardboard, frozen-pizza texture. The pepperoni itself tasted like a cheap, low-quality brand. The Ham & Pineapple Pizza: It was entirely one flavor, only pineapple was the only flavor coming through. The Bolognese: It wasn't quite as flavorless as the pizza, but it was completely forgettable and I wouldn't order it again.

    Rosie Cannonball is Houston's only Italian Michelin-listed restaurant. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe, ambiance, food, and service is perfect for a girls' night or dinner date.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We received complimentary glasses of rosé and a blistered bean salad upon being seated. I definitely felt wined and dined. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The high tables even have bag hooks![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was amazing (even when they were busy). My friends and I really enjoyed their cocktails and the bone marrow. Their honey cake is a MUST-TRY. Totally melts in your mouth. So flavorful and to die for.

    Charred Cabbage-$20. The best vegetable I've had in 2025 and 2026! lol The duck skin and dressing are addictive!
    Mikhael W.

    I don't even know where to begin... This place is the bees knees.... Bomb.com...... My fire and desire..... Just whoa! The best meals I had in 2025 were all in Houston. I might need to go ahead, Pull the trigger, and sell my Dallas home! PSA!!! Ya'll, YOU MUST GO DURING HAPPY HOUR (9pm-10pm, daily). I know an hour doesn't seem like very long so make your resy for around 8:45 and be ready spaghetti when they call your name 5-15 min later. DO NOT TRY TO BE CUTE AND WALK IN, YOU WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN HAPPY HOUR. The pizzas and drinks are half off! An amazing deal. Please get the charred cabbage. You will thank me! The dressing, The duck, The crispy skin--Oh my! Not a cheap dish, $20 for a small portion but well worth it. The magic in the pizzas is definitely in the crust. I have no idea what they're putting in it, but it can't be legal. A slight sweetness--chewy but tender, not tough! The pizzas are big enough for 2 people to split. The Lambrusco spritz was a little smaller than I had hoped, but for $7 during HH, I shut my mouth! Our waitress was nice, very cool and well versed of how Ms. Cannonball and her team run. Per her offering, we began the evening with a nice complimentary pour of delicious rosé. Finished the evening with the honey cake which is a must get! Pretty small portion there too...definitely could've had my own, but I have a 2 piece to wear in 2 weeks, so whatevs. Even though I'm 4 hours away, yours truly will be a regular!

    Love this little spot! So grateful for complimentary valet in Montrose. The space is comfy and casual but still elevated to make a great celebration or date night spot. Service is great, they give you a sample of an Italian sparkling wine to start. They have plenty of fun cocktails and wines to choose from. The charred cabbage was fantastic- love the duck meat and crunchy bits on top, and the charred edges of the leaves were so flavorful. Lamb ragu was very indulgent but would definitely get again- so flavorful and savory, the sauce was creamy, and i could tackle a whole bowl myself. The pizza options are also fun! The spinach and artichoke dip pizza really did taste like it had the dip on the top. The crust is more of the soft and fluffy variety rather than the crisp type you find at other places. I still enjoyed immensely! The dessert menu is worth perusing. The fig and pistachio clafoutis was so delish, it had savory aspects to it and texture was very unique, like a cake with more body. The crème fraiche gelato wasn't too sweet and paired perfectly! Deserving of the Michelin guide designation for sure! Can't wait to come back and try more things!!

    Pork chop
    Jess F.

    One of the most memorable and delicious dining experiences I've had in Houston. Ambiance is absolutely incredible, lively yet elegantly dim. Servers are so kind with great recommendations and attention to detail. Food is out of this world, every single dish wowed me. I simply can't say enough good things! Focaccia - a crispy flatbread with honey drizzled on top and stuffed with cheese and arugula. A pleasant surprise in texture and flavor that left me wanting more! Charred cabbage - might have been my favorite dish of the whole night, surprisingly. Who knew cabbage could be so amazing? The smoky charred flavor paired with the anchovy sauce and crispy duck skin made every bite literally magnetic, I found myself going bite for bite until the dish was clean. Pork chop - the beauty of this dish was in completing each bite with the bed of black eyed peas and the salsa verde. The pork was thick and tender, the beans were soft and flavorful, and the salsa was a tangy kick. Even though we were already so full, we couldn't help ourselves from wasting a crumb of this. Lamb ragu - rich and gamey, with a tiny kick of spice and a tangy yogurt sauce on top. The pasta was cooked to perfection, and the dish was the perfect size to finish off our meal. Another unique standout! Pear tartine - one of the best desserts I've had. This pear reduction on top of a shortbread cookie, paired with a salted caramel gelato, sent my mouth to heaven. Very important to get some of the gelato in each bite! I was so glad I tried this instead of the honey cake (although I'll have to try the cake next time!). Rosie Cannonball will live in my memory was one of the best meals I've had, and I can't wait to come back again to continue trying their exciting and delicious menu!

    Ask the Community - Rosie Cannonball

    Do they have gluten free pizza or pasta?

    I did not see this option. Phone them and ask.

    Is there a brunch menu?

    Nope, just a lunch menu. They are open for lunch on Saturday starting at 11:30 but they are only open for dinner on Sunday.

    Is it by reservation or can you walk in for a table or sit at the bar?

    I recommend making a reservation but you can walk in and sit at a high top table or at the bar.

    Do they have a dress code?

    I don't think there is an official dress code but because of the ambiance, I would recommend semi casual/semi dress.

    Has the menu changed during the pandemic?

    Does this place have outdoor seating?

    Yes, the have outdoor seating.

    Are there gluten-free options?

    I went with a friend last weekend who is dairy and gluten free and they were able to make some changes to dishes to accommodate her no problem.

    What is green sauce on fennel pizza?

    I can't remember exactly, but the base is broccoli-something! (Broccolini, broccoli rabe--not sure which one) It definitely tastes more bitter than a basil pesto.

Also, we ordered the lamb dumplings, shared the double cheeseburger that comes on a homemade English muffin, and of course, we had some side dish, such as beef fat sticky rice.

We arrived before 6:30pm which meant we were able to order from the HH menu. I had a signature cocktail called So Fresh So Clean (love the Outkast reference). This cucumber based cocktail was very refreshing! I also had a Clover Club which I enjoyed (I love the egg white)! Fried Deviled Egg - I opted to add caviar for an additional $8. It was good, but I just really prefer traditional deviled eggs without breading on them. Market Fish - Absolutely delicious! The fish was tender and flaky, seasoned well, and the tomato bacon broth was soooo good! My only complaint was the small portion. Bees Knees - Delicious! Caviar Tots - Compliments of Chef, Ryan (thank you)! 2nd Visit: I came back for dinner. Our server was Chris and he was really nice. We ordered a bunch of items for the table to share. Drinks: I did a So Fresh So Clean because I'm predictable and I loved it the first time. I also had a Negroni and it was really good. Butter Burgers: It normally comes with two, but Chris was nice and brought out a 3rd burger so that we could each have one. I enjoyed the French onion flavor in the beef, but the burger was too buttery for my taste. Crispy Potatoes - Very good with great flavor. Mushroom Empanada - I didn't try any, but my friends enjoyed them. Hanger Steak - It took 40 minutes for the steak to be brought out and unfortunately, one steak was overcooked while the other was undercooked. I tried a bite of the overcooked steak and the flavor was there. The steak was tender enough for my preference. Market Fish - Red Snapper. It was a larger portion, but the flavor wasn't as good as the first time. Additionally, my fish came out about 10 minutes before the steak and it got cold because I was waiting on the steak to be brought out. I read an article on Culture Map that Riel is closing down at the end of August. If Riel is on your list to try, go now before it's too late.

Located inside the Houston Museum of Fine Arts (MFAH), the space feels artistic, chic, and classy - every detail felt intentional, from the decor to the lighting, creating a genuinely elegant atmosphere without feeling stuffy. We started with the complimentary bread service, which set the tone nicely. For the HRW summer dinner menu, portions were a touch smaller than what I'd expect from their regular dinner offerings, but everything was so rich and satisfying that we left completely full. Standouts included the Atlantic salmon, the zucchini veloute, and the chocolate cremeux for dessert - each beautifully executed and packed with flavor. Service matched the quality of the food. For parking, they validate tickets from the museum garage, which is a convenient and budget-friendly option--though paid valet is also available if you prefer that route. Highly recommend Le Jardinier for a special date night or any occasion worth celebrating with excellent French cuisine.

    Extremely disappointing experience with the reservation process…read more We made a reservation through Resy on July 25, 2026, for August 15 2026, more than three weeks before my planned arrival in Houston. I will be visiting Houston for only two days and specifically planned this trip around experiencing Houston Restaurant Weeks. Today, we received an email informing me that I would have needed a separate reservation specifically for the Restaurant Week menu. Unfortunately, by the time I found this out, those reservations were already sold out. We also reached out directly to the restaurant and spoke with Catherine Park from the Hostess Team. We were told there was nothing she could do, and I requested that she escalate this issue to management, as this situation is extremely frustrating and disappointing. The biggest issue is that this requirement was not clearly communicated on the Resy reservation page when I made my reservation. There was no clear indication that a separate Restaurant Week reservation was required, nor was there an option presented during the booking process. I have participated in Restaurant Week events in many cities across the United States, and I have never encountered a system where guests must make a completely separate reservation just to access the Restaurant Week menu. Typically, guests make a reservation and can decide between available menus when they arrive. Since Restaurant Week was the reason I chose this restaurant, this has been extremely disappointing. I will now be looking for a different restaurant for my Houston visit.

    I really enjoyed my whole experience here. The vibe is unique for Houston. The building has a…read moreunique vibe and i'm obsessed with the front door. After entering, you are immediately greeted like family in a relaxing environment but with top notch food. It was my friend's bday so we celebrated with complimentary bubbles which was a nice touch. We enjoyed a large portion of their limited/rotating menu that did not disappoint. The tuna was my favorite. 10/10. A very extensive, higher end wine list complemented the meal nicely. Definitely need reservations -- book as early as possible. Seating is very limited especially for larger parties. Parking --- street parking around the block. Wasn't too difficult. Definitely a must try!

    I was finally able to try this Houston staple last weekend!…read more Food: 4.5/5 - I loved the tomato toast and warm broth the best! The tomato toast was not overhyped and definitely worth getting. The bread is nice and oily yet still crusty and crunchy. The tomatoes and greens on top paired perfectly with the sourdough. - The warm broth doesn't seem like much from pictures and description but it was just so comforting and had nice umami. The green onions really bring out the rest of the flavors. - Ratatouille: this was one of our server's recommendations. I thought it was pretty good but slightly too sour/over-pickled for me. (I'm also not a big pickle person) - Butternut squash: This was probably the next best dish after the toast and broth. All the flavors and texture were there except the squash was a little hard. It could've been cooked a little longer to make it easier to cut through. I guess it is out of season, but still. - Squab aka pigeon: Also pretty good. The dried raspberries actually pair very well with it. Ambiance: 4/5 - The space is extremely small so you really need reservations. - It's so small that the tables are quite close together. But they were also not evenly spaced out so we tried to move our table away from the people next to us (we were practically touching!) and the staff insisted that we don't move them because they need to access the cutlery in the drawer on the side of the table?? First of all, they could've still accessed it after we moved the table. Second, if the space is that tiny, why not just store the utensils elsewhere? Very odd and didn't like that vibe.

    An Exceptional Dining Experience That Feels Like Escaping Houston…read moreFrom the moment I arrived at BCM Taste & Tradition, I knew this was going to be a different kind of dining experience. I originally noticed that Houston Restaurant Week reservations were completely booked through September, but I decided to stop by around opening to see if there was any availability. Thankfully, the hostess was incredibly gracious and accommodating and was able to fit me in before the restaurant became fully booked. I genuinely appreciated the hospitality because it gave me the opportunity to experience what turned out to be one of the most memorable dining experiences I've had in Houston. The food was exceptional. I tried the ink rice with shrimp, which was beautifully presented and packed with flavor. The dessert was equally impressive--honestly, to die for. It was the kind of meal where every course feels intentional and thoughtfully executed. The service deserves its own recognition. Javair at the bar was phenomenal--professional, attentive, and personable without ever being intrusive. We had some great conversation, and he even shared some fascinating details about the artwork throughout the restaurant. Learning that some of the pieces displayed were original Picassos was an incredible surprise and added another layer of sophistication to the experience. And then there's the ambiance. BCM Taste & Tradition genuinely feels like stepping outside of Houston without ever leaving the city. The interior, artwork, music, and overall atmosphere create something incredibly refined and intimate. The live music was especially beautiful--calm, serene, and perfectly suited to the setting. It created an atmosphere where you could actually slow down, enjoy your surroundings, and be present in the moment. This is more than just a restaurant. It feels like an experience curated around food, art, music, and hospitality. From the gracious hostess to the exceptional service, memorable food, stunning artwork, and serene atmosphere, BCM Taste & Tradition absolutely earned every one of these five stars. I highly recommend experiencing it for yourself. This is the kind of place you remember long after the meal is over.
