The staff actually turned the air down because I was so cold, upon my initial arrival, which I appreciated immensely. I looked at all the pics before we came, so I knew right away what I wanted to try. We ordered: Sautéed Crab Fingers/ Fried Green Tomatoes/stuffed Mushrooms I can't really single anything as a best bite because they were all great. The only thing we were upset about, was we don't know about this place sooner. That way we could've ate here coming and going back to Houston. Enter freely, they've been approved

We had about a 15 minute wait for a table for 2 on a Friday night. Our waitresses were so tentative and kind! We started with the boudin cakes! Really tasty with the avocado cream sauce. My husband kept wishing there were more than two! lol For entrees, I tried the crawfish hand pie and Brussel sprouts, along with a berry kick side salad! Everything was good. I particularly liked the fried jalapeños on the salad!! My husband ordered the Big Plate, includes fish, shrimp,and stuffed shrimp. The fish was fried so perfectly, just needed a few more shakes of seasoning! The remoulade sauce really shined and made the fish taste better. We finished with 2 desserts! The apple pie with ice cream and the turtle were both great! Overall, our experience was amazing! Our waitresses really anticipated our needs the entire night! We'll definitely be back for seconds!

I love that they offer a variety of boards you can share, and their drink options are great too. You can sit inside or outside, and they even have live music on some nights, which adds to the atmosphere. The service has always been great every time I've gone. They also have the cutest merchandise available for purchase. It's a great place for date night, hanging out with friends, celebrating birthdays or anniversaries, or just spending time with family. Highly recommend!

As for the food, it's a creative Indo-Western fusion concept that definitely caught my attention! I was especially excited to try the butter chicken ramen. While the flavors of the butter chicken were rich and well-executed, the ramen was underwhelming, because it just looks like it's Maruchan (instant noodles) making the dish feel a bit mismatched. The sides that came with the naan short rib sandwich aka tater tots has the same seasoning as another side dish (the debris fries), so there wasn't much contrast or variety in flavor.

The standout for me was the veggie fried rice. It had great flavor, and I'd honestly come back for that alone. The Snake Wrangler drink was also a favorite. The only downside was the hot honey. It was very light on both the wings and the bao bun, so the flavor didn't come through as much as expected. Service was efficient and attentive. It's a nice, quaint spot with a cozy patio and indoor seating. Still a solid happy hour option, and I'd definitely return.

Since I stay here yearly for our work Christmas Party, I have become fond of this hotel for several reasons. I don't like that the lounge is closed on weekends, but I do like that status members (platinum and above) get a voucher for a free breakfast. That makes this a great deal for me. At around 30-35 per person, otherwise, it may not be a great deal for you (Louie's isn't that far away). Breakfast here is either buffet style or order off of the menu. The buffet has many different options, including the standards. The eggs are good, the potatoes are very good, and the meats are also very good. There is hot sauce available, and service is always friendly and prompt. Best news? The voucher covers gratuity as well! Note: The bar is also great. There is a solid selection of beer and bourbon. Expect to pay hotel prices, but after all, you are at a hotel. Shout out to the super friendly artenders!

It was a littler saucier than I would have wanted, but the flavor was good and the portion generous. Kiddo had the margherita pizza. It was more of a flatbread and a little soggy. Not for me, but the kid enjoyed it and portion was huge. Hubs had the zydeco pasta. He really liked it, but the chicken was a little dry. Had a nice smoky flavor, though. For dessert we shared the turtle molten chocolate cake. It was ok. Needed a scoop of ice cream and more lava. Service was friendly. Overall, it's a good bet if you're close by, but probably not a destination. *Sorry all my photos were taken mid meal. Didn't think about reviewing until we were half done eating.

The dishes feel familiar yet completely refreshed with unique ingredient tweaks that really elevate everything. Every bite felt intentional, bold, and full of depth. It's the perfect blend of traditional Indian flavors with a modern edge. The vibe is also a little more upscale and edgy than your typical Indian restaurant, which I loved. It's different enough to feel exciting, but still comforting if you're a fan of classic Indian food. Easily a new favorite.

(Not the Indian spicy which is considered "very spicy") & it was perfect in every way. The sauce is not sweet like butter chicken but reminded me of chicken 65 flavors as it was also served with a slice of lemon and topped with purple onions. The biryani (seasoned) basmati rice was added flavor. I'll definitely be back for this again. The portion was enough for 2 servings. Oh it came with a side or carrot & onion raita ( homemade yogurt) to help cool off the mouth when eating a spicy dish.I love raita and I would have enjoyed more of it but it was a nice surprise.
