I hadn't heard much about this place and considering it's really close to my house isn't usually a good thing. I decided to venture out and check it out. When you walk in, it definitely gives you the vibe of an upscale steak restaurant and the bar is pretty impressive. I went with my normal, a ribeye cooked medium rare. The food was amazing and the steak was one of the best steaks I have had in a long time. The flavor in this bad boy was pouring out with each cut. Our waiter was spot on and recommended a dessert to top off our meal. I wish I would have remembered his name because he was really good at his job. The food and drinks were delicious and so worth the price. I wish I had gone sooner and I will be back.

We watched and supported that transition, so this visit felt especially disappointing. We arrived when the dining room was nearly empty, yet waited **over an hour** for our meals. After no update, I went to the kitchen and spoke to the server; only then did the manager come to our table. By that point we were already upset, and our food arrived **cold**. To make matters worse, the payment interaction felt uncomfortable: the server stood over us with the little card machine while we entered our tip, watching as we decided how much to leave. Between the long wait, lack of communication, cold dishes, and that pushy payment moment, the experience showed a dramatic decline in both service and food quality. It's painful to see so much change and drama after years of loyalty -- I hope management addresses staffing, communication, and basic customer courtesy soon.

The chimichurri had a kick to it from time to time, but I still ate it because it was really good with the slight sourness I like! The guacamole chicharron was so crispy and flavorful! I would come back just for that. We also ordered from the restaurant week menu. I got the Flora di Zucca which is zucchini blossoms. I genuinely thought it would be pieces of zucchini cut into shapes of flowers, but it was the actual flower! It was yummy! When I seemed confused, they let me try their regular zucchini too! I got the soup of the day which was a creamy mushroom soup and upgraded the sirloin to the filet. Both were worth getting. The filet was a little more cooked than I liked, but still pink in the middle, seasoned well, and tender. Their mashed potatoes honestly might be the best I've ever had at a restaurant. They gave me a sauce to go with the meal that they couldn't exactly describe. I can't exactly describe either. It was good though. I feel like it was similar to stroganoff gravy, savory and sour and a hint of something else. I upgraded one of the sides to the strawberry mozzarella salad, but I did not care for the vinaigrette that came with it. The pistachio cake was not what I was expecting. It was ok, but didn't really taste like pistachio aside from the pistachio crumble on top and was slightly dry. For just the chicharron and the mashed potatoes, I'd come here again. But pretty much everything we ate was solid and worth trying.

Everything came out in very generous quantities and perfect temperatures. The fried pickles represented in a light batter that we very much enjoyed. The burger came to the table a perfect medium-rare as ordered. The fish and shrimp were perfect battered, respectively, in a cornmeal and crispy mix.

It was so delicious and definitely something I wasn't expecting to love as much as I did. And the desserts...to die for! The crème brûlée and sticky toffee pudding were both incredible.

First time trying Chef's Table, a South African inspired ambient new American restaurant! The…read moreinterior is dark and moody, and features a lot of the chef's South African memoirs. You can choose to sit either inside or outside. We went with the Houston Restaurant week menu which features some of their most popular dishes. For the appetizer, we tried the sautéed calamari and gumbo. The calamari had a nice creamy garlic sauce which paired well the sautéed bell pepper, onions, and tender calamari. Their gumbo is solid, not too spicy and had nicely cooked rice and a mix of toppings. The rice had a good bite and absorbed the flavor from the gumbo well. I would recommend the sautéed calamari. For entrees, we ordered the wild caught king clip and steak Diane. The very buttery king clip comes with sautéed spinach and is basted in a creamy, slightly lemony sauce which compliments both elements of the dish. The kingclip is garnished with micro greens and comes with an extra lemon for additional acidity, but I felt that it wasn't needed. The steak Diane had a medium cook and was soooo tender to the bite. I would recommend both, but partial towards the king clip if you want to try something unique! Lastly for dessert, I ordered the passion fruit crème brûlée which had such a unique flavor profile! The tartness of the passion fruit goes surprisingly well with the warm vanilla custard. The texture of the creme brûlée toasted sugar top was perfect as well and added a really nice crunch to every bite. My friend ordered their sticky toffee pudding, which was arguably the best one I've had yet. The toffee syrup is incredibly rich and adds a nice caramelized flavor to the ice cream and moist cake base. It's garnished with bits of sugary crumble and fruit. You really can't go wrong with either, but if I had to pick, their sticky toffee pudding is a must try. All in all, such a fun and intimate dining experience!
