It's located in the lobby of the Texas Tower. There's plenty of parking garages nearby, however we had no trouble finding street parking. The decor and lighting are beautiful. The cafe gives upscale vibes. The massive tree like sculpture is an attention grabber. I was confused on the set up when I walked in because I didn't see a host stand. I stood at the counter for awhile and noticed that one of the cooks was on her phone. After waiting for a minute, I asked her if it was counter service or full service. She pointed to another employee to help me instead of just answering my question. I was under the impression that it was counter service as there were menus by the registers, however the young man explained that it is a hybrid of counter and full service. He said I could order at the counter or grab a seat and he would be over. Service was slow the entire evening. I had the Strawberry Rose Refresher (mocktail). It was really good! My friend had a spicy margarita. She liked the margarita, but was disappointed that the server didn't ask her if she wanted salt on the rim (and of course when it came out, the rim was bare). We ordered drinks before the first course was brought out, but we didn't receive them until the second course. Panzanella Salad - I enjoyed the flavor as well as the texture contrast. Roasted Turkey Sandwich - It tasted fine, but nothing about the ingredients or flavors stood out to me. Chocolate Cake - I didn't love it, but it was good enough. I had to settle on the chocolate cake because they ran out of the Strawberry Cream Cake. My friend had the Panzanella Salad, Truffled Chicken Salad, and Tiramisu. The chicken salad looked so good, but I did not try any. My friend enjoyed the chicken salad and the tiramisu. The meal was fine, but I was expecting more from an upscale French inspired cafe. The staff was very nice, however the speed of service needs some improvement. I would consider coming back for breakfast because some of the menu items look really good. It wasn't a horrible experience, but I'm glad we didn't have to pay full price.

The staff was professional, wait time was no more than 5 to 7 mins at least that's how it felt to me. Saw the doctor, we went over the reasons for my appointment, she paid attention, and listened well. I asked if she could test me for new eyeglasses and she did say Yes but only after she evaluated the issues I had with my eyes. With a green light and in less than 10 minutes I was choosing my new frames and sun glasses but not before I met her furry child, dogs make my day. This was on a Friday and by Monday morning I picked up my first pair of three and by Wednesday the rest of my eyeglasses were ready. That was impressive. I honestly thought I would have to wait 15 to 20 days for my new eyeglasses and on top of that deal with issues such as lenses falling out of their frames and I say this because my husband had to wait 20 days and his lens was loose from its frame which lead him to take them back to the optometrist and wait 7 more days for repair. I had never seen such incompetence in the USA but quality and service his no longer of interest just money. However as a client you have the power to choose your service provider not the other way around. I don't settle for less than what I want and need and this place said Yes to my expectations. I am very satisfied.

I recently started going to the Westchase Center, which is closer to home. After several visits, I can honestly say I'm a fan. Carla, Ashley and Shonda are my hero's. These ladies really know how to take care of you. Their efficiency and customer service skills are second to none! Even when it's crowded, I've waited no more than 5 minutes for my appointment. I recommend completing the questionnaire on their website, which will decrease the time of your overall visit. My veins are small, they roll and are hard to find at times, but these ladies get it right every time. The center is clean and the chairs are comfortable, and recline back to help you relax. Each station has an individual TV with a remote, so you won't miss your favorite show. There's wi-fi if you choose to surf the web on your phone, or update your Facebook status. Or maybe you're just like me and you're spending that time checking in and commenting on Yelp. Whatever you choose to do, the center can accommodate you. The staff's friendly attitude makes you feel comfortable, and they remind you that giving blood saves lives. You feel like you are doing something positive for the community as the machine drains a pint of blood from your body. Blood is so important to keeping people alive, which is why every donation it called "the gift of life." Please remember to eat a decent meal and drink plenty of water before donating blood. The food will keep you from becoming dizzy and possibly passing out, and the water will hydrate you, which makes your blood flow faster. After donating, you can help yourself to the complimentary water, juice and snacks. If you are not a current donor, I urge you to rethink your position because you may need "the gift of life" one day.
