We've been to this place twice now, and it always feels like an amazing splurge. The wine list is not too terribly overpriced compared to other places, and the food is always great. The menu and the wine list both seem very "Houston"-- lots of meats, lots of reds, but not overdone or too much like a steakhouse. Waiter service is always a little sketchy, but that's pretty common on Westheimer, in my experience. We will be back on special occasions.

Visited on Fri. night.... food took one hour to get to table! (4 basic dishes) Food was okay, but dessert was good. I guess you pay to be seen there or something... so many better places to eat.
