We were here for a birthday brunch. The restaurant was packed so the services were a bit hectic due to our large group of 15. Food was ok but the escargot had a bitter taste which is weird. The duck confit was way over cooked that the meat was so dried. The rest was ok.

My group went for Sunday brunch during houston's restaurant week. Off the rip, the hostess was extremely rude to me when we asked for a table, she said "what." and asked if we had a reservation. We did not, but the restaurant was damn near half empty and still was by the time we left, so I don't know why she was so hostile. On top of that we were sat in a dimly lit area across from the restrooms, even though there were plenty of tables in the nicely lit side. (Those tables were empty when we left). The food overall was mid at best. Duck confit was dry. I would never go back here purely on the service.

We were greeted warmly and seated quickly for a quiet brunch with a perfect view of Discovery Green park. We ordered the crab omelet and mushroom crepes which were stuffed full of delicious crab and mushrooms respectively. Next time we come, we plan on ordering from the tempting drink menu.

Duck Confit

My friends and I made a reservation for the Houston Restaurant Weeks menu for 10:45am. We were seated upon arrival and were given the HRWs menu with the appetizer, main course and dessert. I ordered the parfait for appetizer, duck confit for main course and creme brûlée for dessert. They also provided bread at the table. Our waiter was pretty good, though once the restaurant got busy, we had some trouble flagging him down in between main course and dessert. The first two courses came outs relatively quickly with enough time in between each to enjoy and chat. The dessert took some time, and the waiter did apologize for the wait. The food was delicious, specifically the main course and dessert. The granola to yogurt ratio was very off; it was a sprinkle of granola to like 1/3 cup of unsweetened, plain yogurt. The set price for the menu was $25 and I think the value is more than worth it. I'd love to come back here to try more menu items!

Apple tart

Stopped in primarily because of a dessert photo I saw on here but they didn't have it on the menu Friday night around 8, not busy at all. Sat at the bar. Bartender was very friendly and helpful. Ordered two desserts and a glass of wine. Apple tart and chocolate mousse. Nice spot centrally located in downtown. Rest of the menu looked good; would visit again!

It's mostly ok. The service was good. The inside is very cute. Tall windows and right at discovery green so it's a nice view and cute vibe. The food and mimosas were good. Not great but good. A basic brunch. I will say the chicken with the chicken and waffles was very crispy. The hibiscus mimosa isn't great. The strawberry mimosa is pretty good.

Beef Wellington
Stacey G.

Had steak frites and the special of the evening beef Wellington. The beef on both was cooked amazingly perfect. But for $28 for steak frites and over $65 for beef Wellington the steak frites was the better deal as the Wellington was good but not over the top better. Service was spot on. Enjoyed our meal alot.

I must say, and you must forgive me, that this was tres bon! Honestly though, this entire experience was excellent. The interior was crowded, and yet didn't feel that way, which was a feat. The decor was elegant, with the magnificent chandeliers being a nice added touch. I came here for HRW and the menu was impressive to say the least. I was also pleasantly surprised by the selection of delicious complementary pastries we were given prior to the actual courses. Though the restaurant was busy, our servers were very attentive and communicated about wait times and delays, which I found thoughtful. I had the escargot, duck and pot de chocolate and every course was amazing! The escargot was cooked and seasoned perfectly and paired well with the bread, while the duck was succulent and substantial. The creamy and rick chocolatey dessert was the perfect way to end the meal. 10/10!

Lox and bagel
Elizabeth B.

We went for HRW and I really enjoyed it. It's right across from Discovery Green, so you get a nice view, and the inside is cute, with chandeliers all over. Our server was really friendly and professional. I started with the bagel and lox, and really enjoyed the presentation. I then had the seafood omelette, it was served with a nicely dressed salad. We finished with a chocolate mousse dessert. It was all really good. It was a great experience all around, and I would definitely go back.

Chandeliers

This restaurant is perfection. I mean beautiful, elegant, rich, and everything else you could think of when thinking of a wonderful fancy restaurant. Well, we went there, and our waiter was a French gentleman, and he had a perfect mix of refinement and French antics, which I adored. He was great, explaining things I didn't understand with the patience of a well-trained royal staff member. He looked somewhat offended at me when I asked for spicy sauce, but I hadn't tasted the food yet. The food here is real. What I mean is that when you taste the food you realize how fake the yogurt is from your grocery store, how much depth and flavor things like tomatoes, eggs, and berries have. The way they combined things such as yogurt with berries and honey created a perfect mix of taste and pleasure. I felt like the girl in romance novels who moaned when they ate a dish because, before that, I thought that was stupid. No, man, this was Mmmmmmm good. I had never tasted so much good food in my life. And did I tell you how beautiful and refined this place was? It's not like a formal gown restaurant, but man, you gotta wear your Sunday best or your cutest date outfit because that place is too cute to be boring in weekend yoga pants and t-shirts. Even the prices made sense. The only terrible part is that it's deep in Houston and not nearby me. Take the woman you love or want to impress here. And I gotta bug my husband now to take me back, because this place was too perfect to not return.

Steak Frites
Susan H.

We were greeted promptly. Our waitress was very friendly. It's a very cute place restaurant. I like that the tables are spaced apart so it doesn't feel cramped. There's complimentary bread, they come out hot and served with butter. I really liked the braised beef but the vegetables that came with the dish was the unexpected star. The steak and frites, we ordered with the peppercorn sauce. The sauce was very tasty and made the perfectly cooked steak even better. We enjoyed our dinner here.

Steak frites
Laurra H.

French restaurant. Might not be good with little kids. Steak frites and short ribs were perfect. We order medium rare to appreciate the steaks freshness. Short ribs were not too sweet. We didnt care for the escargot because it tasted like its missing salt. Service was attentive and friendly. Ambiance can be a mid level bar scene or a romantic dinner with chandelier. Really decent french restaurant.

Crab Cake and Arugula Salad.
Ericka S.

My first thought regarding Brasserie du Parc is: this café is perhaps cosplaying as a French dining establishment, and kind of misses the mark authenticity-wise. Nonetheless, I had a good experience dining here with a friend one afternoon. Étoile Cuisine et Bar is my favorite French restaurant in Houston thus far...I remember ordering vichyssoise and escargot from Étoile. The chef there, Philippe Verpiand, also was once affiliated with Brasserie du Parc. Maybe that's what's missing at Brasserie: a real French person running the kitchen. Haha. I thought the dining room was much smaller than I thought it would be. The posters in the bar were cool, but to me, that doesn't quite establish ambience. Elsewhere throughout the restaurant, I didn't think the decor was memorable. In fact, it was rather basic. The lunch and cocktail, in my opinion, were quite good. Parking is more of a challenge. There are areas for improvement, but I enjoyed my time at Brasserie du Parc. For more details: 5/5 Lychee Symphony Cocktail. This was a delicious, sophisticated cocktail. Made with: Lychee liquer, vodka, passionfruit, ginger and simple syrup. 5/5 Bread with Butter. The bread here is so good. 5/5 San Pellegrino water. Of course. 5/5 Crepe Soufflé - Grand Marnier Creme Anglaise with Raspberries. A great dessert. 4/5 Crab Cake with Remoulade sauce and Arugula salad, with radish and avocado. 3/5 Ambience 3/5 Did it seem like an authentic French culinary experience? Not really 2/5 Service 2/5 Wait Times

Is this restaurant safe walking distance to the Toyota Center? I'm looking for a place to have dinner before a concert with my teenage daughter. Additionally, how much time should I allot for dinner on a Saturday night as to not be late for the show?

Probably need to make a reservation before as they're short staffed and seem to allot tables for different methods of reservation (Open Table, walk-ins, etc...).

How is parking?

Not great. You can park on the street or someplace nearby. Note: do not park at the Phoenicia garage if you are planning to leave after the store closes. They lock all the… 

I'm guessing not many vegan options? Lol

No, not many vegan options at all. This is a lovely French bistro - there are plenty of other places downtown with vegan options.

Is this an easy walk to Toyota Center?

yes

Our server, Camille, took our order and then would disappear for 30+ minutes at a time. At one point, when we asked where she had been, she simply said she was "walking around." Her overall approach to serving us felt extremely nonchalant and inattentive. The atmosphere also made us feel as though the level of attention you receive depends on how much you're spending--particularly whether you're purchasing bottles. The servers seemed more focused on creating a bottle-service experience than providing attentive restaurant service. It gave the evening a very transactional, "pay for attention" feeling rather than genuine hospitality. What really sealed the experience for us happened after we had already paid our bill. A host approached our table and essentially said, "Can you leave now? We need to seat someone right now." There was no gracious transition, no "thank you for dining with us," and no polite explanation--just an abrupt request to leave. For a restaurant with such a beautiful ambiance and good food, the service and hospitality were incredibly disappointing. Guests should feel welcomed and valued from the moment they sit down until the moment they leave, regardless of whether they're ordering bottles.

It's a great spot to hang out with a big group of friends. They have a pretty impressive beer selection, probably 30 to 40 beers on tap, along with cocktails, margaritas, and other drinks. There's also a Luigi's Pizzeria right next door that you can access from the outdoor seating area, and they frequently have pop-up food vendors. When we visited, there was a little taco stand set up as well. The place was absolutely packed when we went because they were hosting some sort of event with vendors and even a best-dressed fairy costume contest. I've been here for other events where they've had mechanical bulls and all sorts of different activities. It seems like there's always something fun going on. The bartenders were friendly, and while there was a bit of a line to get drinks, it wasn't too bad considering how crowded it was. My one complaint is their strange ID and wristband system. Instead of checking IDs when people walk in, staff periodically come around to groups that are already sitting down and hanging out to check IDs and hand out wristbands. I understand they transition to a 21-and-up bar later in the evening, but the system just feels a little awkward and disorganized. Overall, Axelrad is a really fun bar with a great atmosphere, plenty of seating, and a good selection of drinks. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it as a sports bar since there aren't many TVs, but if you're looking for somewhere to hang out with friends, enjoy some drinks, and maybe catch an event, it's a great option. Every time I've been here, it's been a lively and enjoyable experience.
