He had 4 pm reservation for HRW. When we arrived there was a sign to seat yourself. We sat ourselves on the patio. We sat there for about 10 minutes and no one came to greet us. We moved inside only to find out that they were not serving food due to them not having water. This is completely understandable, this is an unforseen incident and not my reason for a one star review. What is not acceptable is that they didn't bother to call us knowing we had a reservation. A courtesy call would have been much appreciated before driving 45 minutes in traffic to get there. Also, when we went inside after being ignored on the self-seating patio, we were given an attitude as if we were a bother for showing up for our reservation. If the food was anything like the horrible service we received, then we dodged a bullet. Do NOT come here! They are extremely unprofessional and wasted our time. read more

I love d'Alba! As the mom of a newborn, it is the perfect place to bring the baby for an outdoor lunch/brunch or dinner. I've been three times in three weeks & plan to return to celebrate my birthday with the in laws this weekend. I do wish they accepted reservations for smaller parties but so far I haven't had a problem getting a table upon arrival. Each time the food, drinks, service and atmosphere are all great! Favorite on the whole menu is the Brussels sprouts, they're delicious! I also love the smoked salmon sandwich for brunch, the salmon for lunch & the beets/burrata is also delicious! Can't wait to return to my new favorite spot in town! read more

So. Good! Tried to go a few weeks ago and it was packed. So glad we went there tonight. Food was amazing! Had the  beef bolognese and salmon dishes, along with the Brussels and baloon bread. Get it all! I already want to go back asap! read more

We went on a Wednesday night and had a good crowd. Not to be confused with Alba ristorante in Uptown with a similar name. It has a large outdoor area with lots of tables. The place is ideal for times when the weather is nice. There is also a decent interior as well. Great neighborhood location. Service was good. Unfortunately, food was just ok. Steak had way too much lemon. Mushroom pizza was bland. The burger and roasted oysters were pretty good though. Not sure if I'll be back with so many great restaurants in the area. read more

Cute ambiance with a cute outdoor area. We came during brunch hours and I wasn't a fan of the food, we had Gulf Oysters, trio meat pizza, brunch burger and blue crab and shrimp campechana. Oysters were warm/room temp they weren't chilled, the campechana was ok nothing spectacular and our pizza and burger was just regular. I expected a little bit more from this place maybe I'll come during diner hours to give it another try because I wasn't really happy with the brunch. read more

My first visit. There was a wait so we sat at the bar. Decided to order appetizers and drinks. Blood orange mimosa was average. But the spinach dip and the grilled oysters were amazing! And I never have liked oysters but I definitely will order them again. When we moved to our table. One of us ordered the breakfast plate which had a variety; eggs cooked as ordered, potatoes with a tasty seasoning, crispy tasty bacon and an amazing muffin. I ordered the pancakes. They were fluffy and tasty, just enough syrup was added along with fruit and nuts (I think pecans) and a side of ricotta cheese. Amazing!!! Even though the mimosas were average, we will definitely return. Wonderful atmosphere, super wait staff. Loved the outdoor experience. read more

Best Bloody Mary menu in houston. That's mainly why I go here. Also never a wait if you're going for brunch. Just double check and call first to make sure they're open before driving there. Convince me otherwise. read more

So this place is very kid friendly, which is a good thing! If you're coming here for a date or friend get together I wouldn't recommend it because there are, children everywhere, which again isn't a bad thing, just not what I was expecting. Food was alright. Really good for a kid friendly restaurant but okay for a normal restaurant. I've heard they had a good happy hour so maybe we'll come back for a drink! If you have kids they have a playground near the patio area! Servers are all pretty nice too. Overall was an alright experience. Not bad, not great read more

Yummy food and decent oysters. Mediocre service but. Overall a good dining experience. The ravioli were delicious. The pizza was okay and the Brussels sprouts were oddly soft for how crispy they looked. The tres leches was good but not a true tres leches. I may return. read more

Cute little spot in the heights! Met some friends for a little Tuesday night treat. The cocktail menu was extensive and had lots of great options. For appetizers, we ordered the chargrilled oysters (yum!!), the charcuterie board and the brussel sprouts. Menu had a variety of options, including some great vegan choices. Ambient outdoor seating and very attentive service. Overall a nice experience. read more

The food is always amazing here & the girl bartender that's usually in the cage by the play area is my favorite staff member. Come here and get the jalapeño honey pizza to die for with any of their pasta or salads! read more

Wow so impressed with this neighborhood restaurant/bar! Vibes are immaculate and definitely the place I would take my friends and family for a big dinner party. They have plenty of spaces to reserve/host. Also food- absolutely loved the charbroiled oysters as pictured they were huge(honestly where did they find these)! And cannot get enough of the big airy bread. Also had the pasta( not pictured) that was very good and easy to share. read more

Came by and was told there would be a 30 minute wait....... 1.5 hours later nothing.... Only to find most tables open and then got rushed to sit and order immediately because the kitchen was closing. Lots of people waiting at the bar area ended up just leaving. Management did acknowledge the issue and took care of us with drinks and additional appetizers. read more

Great food! The ravioli was so good and flavorful! I would have never put the combo together of all the ingredients used, but it was very good. A great relaxed vibe for families, friends or a date. The only down is the parking can be cumbersome. read more

I had high hopes for this place because the ambiance is cute and menu looks great. But I was very disappointed. Overpriced food for what it is. Food is mediocre and not memorable for being so close to other great establishments. read more

Would eat here again! All of our food and drink were delicious! The fire pit is nice & cozy and our servers were friendly. Down sides were our food all arrived at the same time (appetizers and main course) and we ordered oysters (delicious!) but had to wait and ask a few times for the crackers. read more

Ordered the Hummus as an appetizer and steak tartar as my main meal. A very small amount of hummus was packed against the inside of a bowl and in the middle of the bowl, a heap of green salty olives. The hummus had a different taste and I could not eat it and sent it back. The steak tartar was light colored and normally a red and healthy looking. The description of both dishes on the menu did not match what was served. The pink lemonade was watered down and sent it back also. Service was not the best either and do not think I will return. Woke up during the night with food poisoning symptoms. Primarily, diarrhea and think from the steak tartar. Still have it this morning and if it continues, will go to Urgent Care read more

Stopped by on a Thursday for dinner. The cocktails were great, tons of delicious sounding options I'll have to try next time. The service was awesome. Food was good, the balloon bread is a must have! We also got the warm beets, chili and lime cauliflower and the baby kale salad. read more

I enjoyed coming to brunch here. The restaurant was decorated nicely and the ambiance was great. Not too loud but not too quiet either. They had a pretty big patio so it would be nice place to go when the weather is nice too. We started with a dozen oysters that came with a citrus dill mignonette which was amazing, however some of the oysters were not properly cleaned resulting in shell being inside the oyster. We also had the crab and shrimp compechana which was delicious as well as the farm egg and marinara pizza. The pizza was good but I was thinking it was more like a Shakshouka pizza and would have had a few eggs but this was still very delicious. We finished with dessert and again what I thought I was getting based on the description was different than what we got but it was still good. We had the chocolate mousse cake with pistachio soil and dehydrated raspberries, what we received was chocolate cake with a little mousse in between the layers and raspberry jam between the layers with a topping of crush pistachios. But it was delicious. Also we had an orange mimosa carafe as well as the blood orange mimosa carafe. Keep in mind these are personal carafes so smaller than a typical carafe at most restaurants. read more

It was our first time dining at D'Alba and we left with mixed feelings . The service was good , but the hostess had a poor attitude as noticed by multiple members of our party . Not exactly the welcoming atmosphere we were hoping for . The food was a 7/10, and came out quickly, but nothing astounding: We were excited to try the chargrilled oysters, but they were EXTREMELY small for $17. Overall not the experience we are hoping for . read more

Great brunch spot! Lots of parking. Awesome shaded outdoor seating! Solid menu and drinks. Will be back!

This is an all around nice place - whether for brunch or dinner there's a variety in seating and moods. The service was very fast and everything tasted good. We especially like the pizza and spinach artichoke dip! read more

We have been watching d'Alba from the ground up and we're so excited to try it. We went for lunch on our anniversary! Everything about our experience was amazing! They are in their soft open phase which is so smart but all menu items are not yet available! Even so it was still tough to decide as everything sounded good! Everything served to us was phenomenal! Their drink menu is also really great! The physical appearance of the inside is so appealing too! Very well decorated and little touches that make the dining experience special! The also have a dog friendly patio with plenty of shade! Staff is amazing! Great addition to the neighborhood! We will be going every other week if not more! read more

Lots of people seem to like this as the streets have cars parked on both sides, make traffic a bit crappy. Went here in the evening after a long day figured had to be good with all the traffic. Selections were not inspiring and food was ok. Must be a drink spot. read more

Tried d'Alba for the first time a little while back with some friends for brunch! I had been hearing good things about it and was NOT disappointed.

Went for a small family brunch on Dec 31. The food was great. The Brussels sprouts were a great hit for the whole table. The spinach dip was a great non diary alternative. They have a small play area outside for kids which is great. The service was A+ we will definitely be back again to try the pasta. read more

The atmosphere at this place is AWESOME. Our waitress was incredibly attentive and helpful as we asked her a million questions about the menu. We ordered cocktails and wine to start, which were good. We weren't impressed with the cocktail options but also weren't disappointed - they were fine, nothing too innovative. Appetizers were delicious, we ordered the Brussels and campechana. I would recommend both. For our main entrees we had the pesto pasta (pictured) and the bolognese. The bolognese was not our favorite, it tasted fine but seemed to be more appropriate as a meal during the cold months, not the spring time. read more

Can't believe we haven't been here sooner! My husband and I came on a Friday night with the kids, and were so impressed. Our 4 year old LOVED playing with all the other kids in the play area, and we loved not forcing him to sit still during a meal. We ordered oysters, pizzas, and a salad and everything was fresh & delicious. The only reason I'm giving this place 4 starts instead of 5 is because the mosquitoes were so AWFUL that I couldn't enjoy the dining experience fully. D'Alba should Definitely look into a mosquito solution going forward, especially in the summer months. read more
