    Dined here with two of my girlfriends for a birthday celebration, and the restaurant was beautiful and staff was very friendly. It was the highlight of our visit. On a hot summer night, it was just that... too hot in there. I even asked if the AC was on, and they told me yes. I literally had to break out a hand fan to cool off because it was uncomfortably warm. As for the food, it was good, but I honestly expected more. I wanted to really be WOW'd by this place, but it was just okay. Drinks were definitely made well, though.

    Argentinian Red Shrimp Crudo

    My wife took me to The Marigold Club as an early Father's Day present on the Saturday before Father's Day. And I am one lucky Daddy!!! First of all, the restaurant is beautiful, and it was nicely bustling on this early Saturday evening. Our two top booth was comfortable and looked out over all the action. We both enjoyed the Marigold Martini which is a bargain at $10 during "Golden Hour", we also had some Golden Hour marinated olives. Quite delicious and the marinade which had some sort of mustard in it was excellent. For starters we got the Argentinian Red Shrimp Crudo. One of the best crudos I've had, and was very unique as I don't think I've seen Argentinian Red Shrimp offered in this way before. We also had the Marigold Salad and the Beef Tartare. The Tartare was very flavorful and I actually enjoyed it better without the Sourdough toast that was served with it. For mains my wife chose the Poached Halibut with Parisian Gnocchi. The fish was cooked perfectly and the sauce was delectable. The little gnocchi were a nice complement to the dish. I chose the Striped Bass which had a great crispy skin, again perfectly cooked and the salsa verde and pickled fennel added an acidity that brightened the dish up. I loved this dish. Glad I picked it over the pork chop (which was probably going to be good also). We had a couple of sides - The chilled asparagus salad was excellent while the leeks had excellent flavor they were a little chewy and stringy, so texturally not that good. For dessert we had the Amaretto Chocolate Bar which also hit the spot!! Great meal at from the Goodnight Hospitality folks at The Marigold Club. We will definitely return.

    went to the marigold club for my birthday and was immediately in awe of the decor and ambiance. we sat in the atrium and it was gorgeous! every detail was thought out from the table decor and the wallpaper. we were there for golden hour (their version of happy hour) and got delicious martinis and oysters. for our mains, the duck wellington was phenomenal! highly recommend as well as the spaghetti! would definitely recommend for a special dinner!!!

    Prime Filet of beef

    This was a let down, unfortunately. Start with the good... the restaurant is beautiful and the service is great. We were off to a really good start. I really like the vibe of the interior and the layout. They start you with a house made tea, I didn't like it. We ordered the fish "not" chips and the oysters. The oysters were solid and they had an assortment of different East Coast varieties, which was nice. The fish "not" chips was almost a hit. The shrimp and the scallops were good and fried nice. However, they also included citrus slices deep fried with the peel on. It was lowkey disgusting. It was super bitter and sour and you didn't know what it was until you bit into it. For entrees, I had the prime filet of beef and my wife had the Duck Wellington. I have to admit it was the worst duck either of us have ever had. It was unbearable. The steak was ok. It was literally two slices of filet. If you follow me or have read my reviews, you know we go to a lot of steakhouses. This would be a bottom tier steak in the hierarchy of Houston restaurants. Presented elegantly, lightly seasoned and an overpowering cherry flavored reduction that didn't complement the beef. We also had the the French fries, the onion rings and the shrimp cocktail. The shrimp cocktail was pretty good, fries were good and onion rings were mediocre. The banana old fashioned was a 7/10 as well. Again, great service and atmosphere so I hate to put them down. However, after spending $365 after tip, I'm highly disappointed. I left hungry and unsatisfied.

    Tomato martinis
    Meghana J.

    Went for golden hour on a Saturday and it was an amazing time!! Specifically found this place because we were wanting to try a tomato martini, and their clarified version is excellent. Their golden hour menu is such a steal with everything half off, and you can even request any type of martini you'd like and it'll be half off!

    The Marigold Club has been on my list for dinner service. I didn't realize they offered brunch until one of my close friends suggested it for brunch. We were overdue after all their wedding preps the past few months. We wanted to go somewhere where we could dress up, so this is where we ended up. There's street parking, albeit busy. Valet is the easiest option where they park right across the restaurants (The Marigold Club, March, Rosie Cannonball). Tip what you will, but it's literally 10 steps or less if you parked there yourself. Walking in, we were greeted and saw our friends who were already seated in the middle of the main dining area. I love the decor and ambiance. It was reminiscent of a place called Rosalie's downtown where my friend had a birthday lunch a few years back. It might've been because of the green tapestry. We ordered drinks. I asked if they had any mocktails, and our server Nataly said a few of the cocktails could be converted. They had Ritual gin alternative, which is my fave. I ordered the gin and tonic. It was served in a glass that you would drink soda from. The lemon zest fell off on the table as she put it down, so it was tossed. I was left with what looked like sparkling water but with a tall, rectangular cube. The drink itself was refreshing but could've been presented better. Nothing beats the mocktail gin and tonic presentation at BCN. I always preview the menu and look up photos prior to eating out. I thought I had made up my mind on the Bergamot profiteroles and French omelette, but I went a different route instead of the omelette. We started with both of their flavored scones because my friends wanted it - lemon poppy seed and peach almond. They give 2 small pieces of each flavor for $8. I didn't like them at all. They were tiny, dense, dry, and the flavors weren't good, especially the peach almond. I ordered the Bergamot profiteroles. They gave us 4 for $10 so that we could each get one. It was better than the scones but not what I expected. It was more tart like cream cheese inside. I thought it was going to taste like the description - vanilla chantilly (like Whole Foods chantilly cake) and dulce de leche. I tasted neither...or bergamot. I've had earl grey pie in California, so I was expecting that flavor. Looked pretty, though. Three of us ordered the steak frites, and our other friend ordered the English muffin sandwich with hashbrowns. I ordered my 8 oz flank steak medium (still a bit bloody and would tint the frites), and they had medium rare. The sauce au poivre saved it and added flavor. I enjoyed the frites. I tasted some of my friend's hashbrown and liked that, too. I couldn't finish the whole dish, but my friend took the rest of our steak pieces combined to take home. Loved the decorative takeout bag that matched the wallpaper. They have cute yellow matchboxes that we got on our way out. Service was great even if the steak took a while to come out. We were forewarned. It was fine cause we started with boulangerie first, which was basically half of the dessert menu. We skipped that, though the sundae cart looked intriguing. It's like when you fly business or first class, and they offer Tillamook vanilla ice cream sundaes. We were dressed in shades of red and green which made for a lovely photo of us that they took before we headed out. The different areas of The Marigold Club is great for photos, but I wasn't wowed by the food. Even the afternoon tea menu options didn't look appealing. I don't think I'll be trying dinner here anytime soon.

    Wow... just wow. This place is gorgeous. Definitely date night worthy! We did a girls' NO here and sat on the patio which was so cute. It was a little cold but it was fully enclosed and they eventually turned on the heater. The waiter was very helpful, and answered all of our questions while being very patient. We ended up with an assortment of food. They are known for their martinis and their happy hour is decently priced for their specialty martinis. This place is definitely worth a try!

    came here on a Friday evening around 5pm on a solo date before I went to the movies. I'm a lover of boujee luxurious restaurants so when I went to houston this place was definitely on my list! I was greeted with a birthday card, the place was not totally packed which I liked. I got a mocktail, fish and chips and everything was 10/10. My waiter was so nice and kind to me helped me take my pictures (which is important to me) and helped me decided what to order.

    Afternoon tea savory bites and scones
    Brittany M.

    I loved the complimentary tea served in the beginning. It reminded me of a non alcoholic wine with kombucha. Everyone was attentive and made sure we had a good time. The tea itself was ok. The earl gray was my favorite. A well balanced black tea although I prefer to have a bit of milk which I'm sure I could have asked for. The savory sandwiches were awful. The bread was stale, the chicken salad was too sweet. The pastrami sandwich needed mustard or mayo. The meat tasted cheap. The cucumber tart was great and so was the gougere. Although the savories were a full miss, the sweets were everything. Beautiful, delicate, and complex. The definitely saved the day. I really like the scones and the sweet cream fraiche. Maybe the supplements would have helped save the savory course but I don't think you should need them in the first place.

    Absolutely gorgeous restaurant. The did was amazing...so amazing we dug in without taking pictures. The Parker house rolls were a hit. They also start you off with this delicious tea. I could've bought it by the gallon! Our server was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. We ate the marigold salad, spaghetti, the roasted chicken, with mashed potatoes and the sundae cart and pistachio tart for dessert! 10/10

    We made reservations for Saturday night and they seated us right away. This is probably one of the most beautiful and romantic spots we've ever been to. The walls are hand painted beautifully. The chairs are made of beautiful material and the chandeliers are roses. We started our meal with MUSSEL ESCABECHE TOAST, and Fish "Not"chips. The toast was incredible and delicious, the Fish not chips was not good at all! There was so much salt and oil that every single item on the dish tasted the same way. We then ordered the halibut and Beef Wellington. Both dishes were good. The Halibut was cooked perfectly. And the curry sauce was creamy and delicate, however the seat on top of the fish was overly salty. The onion rings were the absolute worst I've ever had, they where's crispy and the batter tasted stale. We each had one bite and they went to waste. We finished our meal with the peach Melba and ice cream cart. The peach tart was ok, nothing to rave about and the ice cream cart was more for show as the ice cream itself was bland. I'm a huge fan of salt on everything, but these dishes were all just overly salty. Not a fan of coming back.

    My husband and I had a lovely meal here even with their prix-fixe menu on a holiday. Our waiter accidentally spilled some wine on my husband's shirt while serving him, but luckily it was white wine. The entire restaurant was so full, crowded, that we felt we were back dining in New York City (but more reasonable prices). We hope to try this restaurant again on a non holiday to dine.

    Same item repeated twice.  Not the best choice.  These are very small, specially compared to the meat sandwich served on the regular tower.

    The place is beautiful and the ambience is really nice. The service was great as well. We went for afternoon tea. I emailed a few times to make sure that they could accomodate a pescatarian menu since some of the items in the tea contain meats that I can't eat. I was told that they will leave the seafood items and exchange the other items for vegetarian versions. Unfortunately that is not what was done. They serve the normal food to my companion and to me they just double the seafood, not substitute for vegetarian counterparts. I would have been ok with that if I would have just showed up, but I made a reservation and talked to them, emailed them several times to make sure that they knew I had certain restrictions. I would understand if they do not have a vegetarian option, but they do, and that is what they were to substitute my items for. At least that is what I was told over and over on the times that I corresponded with them. I am sorry, but at $100 per person that is sloppy and inconsiderate. It is not that hard to substitute a meat sandwich for a sandwich that contains a piece of vegetable. Substituting a croquette for something else would have been acceptable. Instead, I ended up with 2 salmon small bites and 2 crab very small bites, not a sandwich, not a croquette. Considering those are the heaviest items of the meal, the food was very underwhelming and underpriced. I really was looking forward to trying the Marigold. Perhaps it has better days, but today was not it. I gave it 3 stars because the staff was super nice. But the food is not that great, specially considering that the other restaurants from the same group have excellent food.

    Went to Winnie's on a Sunday during Houston Restaurant Weeks and had an amazing experience from the…read moreservice, drinks, and most of the food. Off the Restaurant Weeks menu we ordered the Loaded Hash Browns in the Style of Potato Skins and the Trio Deviled Egg Trio for starters. The loaded hash browns were crispy, golden, and covered with a healthy amount of toppings especially the cheesy queso. The deviled eggs were just okay for me. They weren't your typical deviled eggs the filling was more of a mustard forward potato salad mixture. The three toppings on deviled eggs were very distinct from one another and each had its own flavor. For the main dishes we ordered the Peach Cobbler French Toast and the Breakfast Sandwich. The French toast was a little underwhelming. It wasn't made with the traditional thick cut bread and was more on the thinner side. It was loaded with toppings, but honestly the toppings overpowered the bread itself. Now the BREAKFAST SANDWICH was AMAZING!! I honestly wished I had ordered another one. I'm usually not a fan of English muffins, but the way this sandwich was made and assembled was PERFECT. From the toasted English muffin to the sausage patty, crispy hash brown, fried egg, tomato, and cheese!!!Every bite was so good! If they bring this sandwich back to the menu it is a MUST TRY! From the regular menu we also tried the Fried Chicken Crunch Wrap Supreme. It was okay. The chicken was hot and fresh, and even the dipping sauce was good. However, the Doritos were soggy, and for me, there was way too much cabbage in the inside. Overall, it was just okay. The Treasure Chest Frozen Flight is an absolute must. Not only are the drinks delicious, but they come with a cute little sparkler, which makes the whole experience a little celebration. The Saturn was my favorite. And of course, living in Houston, we all know Sunday = Sunday Funday! So yes, it was packed inside. They did have plenty of seating outside. Winnie's is seat yourself and order at the bar, and there was plenty of room to either share tables or stand around and wait for a party to finish so you could grab a seat. Overall, if you haven't been to Winnie's yet, you should definitely check it out! The breakfast sandwich alone is worth the visit if it makes its way back onto the menu.

It was lively when we walked in with a DJ playing and definitely gave Sunday Funday energy. The setup is casual. You order and pay at the counter, get a number, and they bring your food to the table. Seating is open, with plenty of indoor space and a large patio. Parking can be a little confusing if you aren't familiar with downtown since it's right off Main, but there is a connected paid garage. We came for the $25 HRW brunch. I started with the trio of deviled eggs, and my friend had the hash brown potato skins. We both chose the NOLA BBQ shrimp and grits for our main, which was really good. As a seafood lover, the regular menu definitely caught my attention too, so I already know I need to come back. For her birthday, I got her the Treasure Chest Frozen Flight, which comes out with all four frozen drinks and sparklers. Such a fun presentation for a celebration! I had the Frozen Saturn with gin, passion fruit, orgeat, falernum, and lemon. It was busy, but everyone was friendly and we had a great experience. Fun atmosphere, good food, and definitely somewhere I'd come back to try more of the menu.

Valet is a little tough here because the parking lot is small, but they managed to do a good job all things considered so kudos to them. Food: the food is absolutely amazing. Their version of Jerk Chicken is very unique. Full of flavor and very tasty. Every bite was amazing. I will say, though if they were to make this on an open pit or a flame pit like Caribbean hot pot I think it would really add to the flavor but all in all the way they do it. It's very unique and it's very good. The bed of rice that is served on is phenomenal. I've never had rice that good. Also, I don't even eat vegetables, but the greens are amazing. The lamb chops were a little tough. My girl ordered them, medium rare, and it was tougher to cut them. So maybe it was just a bad day but they were OK. Everything else was amazing.

We had a 7pm reservation for two, and it was in a corner with a small table and high bar stools. It was very hot. We were sweaty, and I am normally very cold in restaurants. I think they go a little overboard with saying that having food here is like traveling the world and breaks down barriers. I like the concept though. They could do more with the decor to give it more of a world traveler vibe. They definitely tried. They were playing American hip hop music, which does not fit the international theme. We got the three course dinner, which was $60 each plus tip. The food was good but did not feel like it was worth the price. For appetizers, we got the Mochiko Chicken and Crispy Pork Belly in Pasilla Sauce. We liked the chicken a lot, and it came with a sweet mango chutney and spicy mayo sauce. The pork belly was alright. It was pretty standard. For entrees, we got the Singaporean Shrimp Laksa and Nigerian Suya Skewers. I liked the noodles and curry, but the fish cakes were not that appetizing. The skin was much bigger than the meat inside, so it would weirdly inflate or deflate. The shrimp came with their tails on, so I got my hands slimy with curry. I did not personally try the beef, but I was informed it was a 3.85/5 and 4/5 with the sauce. The laksa was a decently sized portion, but the beef was quite the small portion with a few chunks and a bit of rice and tomatoes. For dessert, we enjoyed the Orange Torta Caprese and New Orleans Bourbon Bread Pudding. I was kind of confused why the chocolate cake was called torta. It was very small but nice and rich. The orange flavour was strong. The bread pudding, on the other hand, was very big. Although it wasn't pudding. There was a large piece of the bread in whole form. It was delicious. I did not taste bourbon.

I never order tacos, but I ordered them here and they were probably the best tacos I've ever had (filling, flavorful, and not too much food). They also had an extensive drink menu. I wasn't drinking but if I was there were some great options Parking: The parking was challenging. There was street parking but I was coming with a baby so unloading the stroller on the street was a no for me. There was a garage and supposedly valet parking. I couldn't find the valet anywhere in the block so I just went to the garage. It was $7 for 2 hours Service: Our server was great! It seemed like she was the only one and the place was packed ! Seating: There were 2 tops, 4 tops, and booths. They also had high chairs. They did let us pull the stroller up to a table for my little guy to sit . The space is larger than expected and was packed the entire time. They also have a large patio but none of their fans weee working Other: They have 1 unisex restroom. Luckily it was large as I had to bring my stroller in to use it as a changing table since they didn't have one. The challenging part was the door wouldn't fully open so I had to really push it to get it open far enough to get the stroller in

    Love this place! We've been here for a few times with friends for lunch and it always hits…read more The chips n dip come with a delicious Liberian Greens dip, slightly bitter in taste and incredible overall, with crispy plantain chips. We get this each time since it's so good! For the main dishes, we usually share the African Goddess salad with steak, Golden (my fav), Buka and the Aunty Mawa's. All the dishes come with some sort of rice and protein and you can sub or add as you please. Y'all the flavors on these dishes - it'll leave you wanting bite after bite after bite. There's nothing not good at this incredible place! Waitstaff is always friendly and welcoming and the restaurant has a great aesthetic!

I got the black star and buka bowls, polo club suya, and special cookies and cream ($16). Both bowls (almost 1/2 size of the normal bowl) were delicious. The plantains in the buka were so good. The suya portion was a bit small but understandable - the meat was a little tough but flavor was perfect especially with the peanut spice. The cookie and cream - I preferred the coffee ice cream (obviously) and the spice and nuts gave it a nice kick. I don't think this was worth $16 but it was worth trying once. Parking is valet or you can do street parking (plentiful and probably 1-3 minute walk) Service - excellent! They do bring the tablet to you so you have to tip in front of your server. Ambiance - a bit too loud for my liking but I'm probably in the minority

It was incredibly busy but the restaurant was beautiful. A bit crowded because booths were shared across walls, but it wasn't much of a problem.

It definitely feels like the perfect place for a special occasion, date night, or whenever you're looking for a more upscale dining experience. The food was absolutely incredible, and the drinks were just as impressive! We started off with the smoked and dressed oysters. I love oysters and these were so fresh and delicate. We also had the octopus for an appetizer and this was probably the best octopus I have ever tried at a restaurant. For main course I had the blue cheese ravioli ribs and the flavors really complimented one another with the fig. We also had the Duck dish and it was excellent. Apparently these sell so fast that people call ahead of time to reserve! Our wait staff was exceptional and very attentive, knowledgeable, and helpful without being overbearing. I ended up ordering based on several of their recommendations, and they did not steer me wrong! Everything they suggested was delicious. I will definitely come back to Bludorn!

    20/10. Every. Single. Time…read more I don't even look at the menu anymore. Fried AND grilled pork chops, cheese eggs, and potatoes. That's my order and I'm standing on it. The pork chops are the star. One fried, one grilled because why choose? The fried chop has that crispy, seasoned crust, while the grilled chop brings a completely different flavor. Cheese eggs always hit, potatoes do exactly what they're supposed to do, and somehow the whole plate comes together every single time. I've been to The Breakfast Klub more than once, and consistency matters to me. They have never missed. Some places you visit when you're in town. This is one I make sure I get to when I'm in Houston. 20/10. Palate don't lie. ‍

My daughter had the sampler platter with eggs, bacon, sausage, a biscuit, and grits. She loved everything on her plate (especially the biscuit!) but was very underwhelmed by the grits. I had them too and they were pretty bland and needed to be a little less thick. That said, the portion sizes are nice! One meal was plenty to split for my 2 kids. My husband and I split the Katfish and grits along with the red velvet waffles and chicken wings. The catfish tasted great, though it got a little soggy from everything else on the plate. The red velvet waffles were delicious, rich, flavorful, and a hit with my husband and I (and then my girls who were eyeballing my plate.) The chicken wings that came with them were crispy, seasoned, and hot, which is a winning combination. Needless to say, I would highly recommend stopping by! And a quick tip for anyone visiting: try to get there before 9:00 AM. I've heard that it gets lively and crowded fast, but going early makes it much easier to get a table.
