My husband asked to be reseated and the hostess was so sweet and apologetic. She made us feel way comfortable about the move and then we also had a delightful server Marissa. The food was great and our guest who'd never been to LT had a great meal. TY to the staff who were very nice and hospitable. Not a lot of welcoming atmospheres in large restaurants these days. It was a great lunch and a super turn around for a rough start. Also it was hard to find your location bc the yelp address is wrong. Someone at corporate needs to google houston. Maybe ask for local help bc I didn't see this location on google either. That's a bad mistake bc people are driving thru and missing this location!! The only reason 4 stars is to get corporate moving on the address change. The map address you have is in Hempstead. That's FAR from cypress. I was actually afraid the location was closed where you are. Not a fun drive (30 min) hoping the restaurant is actually open. Marissa and the local staff are A++++ even the chef came out to check our food was good (love the brunch items!)

"OVERPRICED, UNDERWHELMING, AND LUKEWARM, LITERALLY!"…read more Despite my best efforts, and multiple promises to myself, to stay away due to poor service and subpar food, my husband and I found ourselves back at this establishment for dinner on a Saturday evening after years of avoiding it. The only reason we gave it another shot was because a coworker recently hosted her birthday dinner here, which piqued my curiosity. I will admit, they've made noticeable improvements in both food quality and service, so our experience wasn't all bad. The Positives: From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly by the host, who informed us of a short fifteen-minute wait, very reasonable. The ambiance was pleasant, with clean tables and inviting decor. Our appetizers and drinks were flavorful and enjoyable. We were also promptly served complimentary chips, salsa, and charro beans, which was a nice touch. Our server, Tony, was polite and professional, though his approach felt a bit robotic. There was no real warmth or connection, which made the service feel transactional rather than welcoming. The Negatives: Here's where things went downhill. Our appetizers and drinks took forever to arrive, so long, in fact, that I joked Christmas might come before our drinks did. When our main course, the $75 trio platter of shrimp, beef, and chicken fajitas, finally arrived, it was lukewarm at best and the chicken was brutally dry and overcooked. The biggest disappointment? While every other table around us was served sizzling, steaming fajitas, ours looked like it had taken a long, lifeless stroll through a graveyard before landing on our table. A cast iron skillet is supposed to retain heat, so why was our food barely warm? To make matters worse, there were barely any grilled onions served with our fajita platter. I don't know if it's just me, but I'm used to fajita platters being loaded with caramelized, flavorful grilled onions. Not this place, though. They gave us about four measly slices, essentially the equivalent of four lonely onion rings sliced in pieces. Talk about disappointment! To top it off, they forgot our side of black beans. Once we pointed it out, they brought them over, steaming hot, ironically enough. So they made sure our side of beans was piping hot, but not our pricey fajita platter? Make it make sense. For a total bill of $189, including tip, I expected better. At these prices, there is absolutely no excuse for serving lukewarm food, especially when presentation and temperature are key selling points for a dish like fajitas. Whether this was a kitchen issue or a lack of urgency from our server, I can't say, but if I were a server expecting a decent tip, I'd make sure my guests were receiving fresh, hot food. Final Verdict: Mediocre at best. This restaurant is held in high regard, yet our expectations were met with disappointment. I wouldn't recommend it, but if you're feeling adventurous, dine at your own risk. Parking is plentiful, the service is slow, and the food? Just okay. But the drinks are delicious.

They were good but not great. My entree was grilled chicken breast and veggies. The chicken was decent but veggies were burned. My husband ordered grilled pork chops, salad & veggies. His pork chops were overcooked & tough. His veggies were also burned and his salad had brown pieces. My husband NEVER leaves food on his plate but he did here. That means he really did not like it. Our waitress came back by our table when we were all done to ask if everything was ok. All and all - not good. Will not return.
