Good, defintely not four star!

by jlindh

Please note that the last good review of The Glass is from over 4 years ago! Last evening, four of us ate at the Glass Menagerie after noting that Urbanspoon ranked it as the #5 Woodlands restaurant. I have to disagree with that ranking. First of all, it's difficult to find if you're not familiar with the Woodlands, it's a good 200 yards off of Millbend Dr., so don't expect your GPS to get you there. The delicious Sea Bass mentioned in previous reviews is no longer on the menu. We were served gin and tonics without lime wedges, the bread arrived after the salad, and two steaks were only luke warm upon arrival at the table. Otherwise the food was very good and the desserts were excellent. Lastly, although Urbanspoon lists the entrees at between $10-$15, the only entree at less than $20 is the hamburger! My wife and I spent $120 including a bottle of wine. Kirby's and Landry's don't even make Urbanspoon's top ten and yet are much better than the Glass Menagerie.

• Pros: Desserts
• Cons: Service, location, price to quality ratio.

not worth it!

by khalidhajsaleh

The place is overpriced. Food portions are very small. Why on earth would anyone recommend this place? After eating there, we had to go to another restuarant becuase we were still hungry! The atmosphere was loud. We had to scream to hear each other.

• Pros: nothing!
• Cons: overpriced, portion size, loud

Superb!

by vartex

I was so impressed with the excellent service and quality of food that I made a special trip all the way from Toronto, Canada just to 'taste' the experience again, with my whole family this time.

I've been around the world and travel a lot, this one was unforgettable! Specially the preparation of the salad in front of your table was outstanding and unique.

• Pros: Great service, Delicious food, Excellent deserts
• Cons: , underexposed to publi

Group Gathering

by jcarolan

A group of us went to the Glass Menagerie and we all agree: the food and service was spectacular. My filet mignon was so tender I could cut it with my fork. Wine selection was great. Dessert was heavenly. Can't wait to go back.

• Pros: food, secluded, wine
• Cons: fountains not on, long walk

What a surprise!

by city

During my stay at The Woodlands Resort & Conference Center, I was pleasantly surprised to dine such a great dining experience at the Glass Menagerie. The menu selection was great, with a special summer menu, the wine list was wonderful and I have never experienced a more knowledgable and friendly service staff. We'll be back soon!

• Pros: Great taste!, Nice view, great service
• Cons: no live music
