We absolutely love Steak 48 and this time only elevated our love for this establishment. Our server, Taylor, was nothing short of exceptional!!! She was funny, engaging, full of life, and made sure we were well taken care of. Hands down, this was the best experience we've ever had there and we've been countless times. Taylor is easily another reason we will return. I saw her interacting with other guests and I have no doubt they had the same experience we did. Of course, I had a filet and my husband had the twin lobster tails. We started with the crispy shrimp deviled eggs. We shared sides or the roasted brussel sprouts and the sweet corn. Everything was prepared to perfection and delicious!! We cannot wait to visit again!!

Our server was nice enough service was not bad, they were efficient. The seafood is not wild caught and the prices do not align. I ordered the superfood salad um...there was nothing super about it. It was very underwhelming and quite disappointing. I also ordered the whipped sweet potatoes and the crispy shrimp. Crispy they were not and they weren't good they weren't either..

It also felt like a third space of sorts, because I was hanging out with a well connected friend, and everyone who came in was a who's who of the Houston restaurant/nightlife scene, and gathered for what turned out to be an unplanned hang out. They were hosting a vinyl swap night, so folks were coming in to peruse the many boxes of vinyls, and a DJ spun classic r&b tunes. I hear that on some nights they make space for a dance floor so people can show off their best two step in the space. The drinks were great and well priced but the wine selection is what got me. I was told they were inspired by Japan's many vinyl listening bars-- having been to many across Japan as well as many NYC imitators, this place actually impressively comes close. A true gem in Montrose.

Regarding the food, the Frisée Salad was pretty good, well dressed and flavorful. The chicken sandwich was okay. The batter was crispy and flaky but it had no flavor. What made it a lot better was the coleslaw that brought a great deal of tang and moisture. The steak was not quite for me. It came on a bed of sauce that was flavorful with fresh veggies but it did not go well with the steak. Perhaps chicken would've suited better. The steak itself was dry and quite chewy. For dessert we had the carrot cake tres leches which was decent. The carrot cake flavor was there but the moisture from the cake was not fully spread in the cake. Overall nothing here was bad but with the plethora of restaurants in the Houston area I can't justify recommending or returning.

Their fixed price menu is great - $25 for a starter and main choice with unlimited beverages (coffee, mimosa, tequila sunrise).

My friend loved her french toast. We had a 1pm reservation and the place was pretty well packed, so it's popular. Overall, I'm not mad because the price wasn't that high, but I also will not be going back.

It's a nice lowkey neighborhood spot with a bar and outdoor seating as well. The ambiance was chill and casual which I am all for. They are pet friendly as I got to see some fur babies come in which is always nice. We started with some glasses of Cabernet and told our waiter we were celebrating my birthday. The food didn't take long to come out and was so darn good. It was probably one of the best steak nights I've had in a while. We had the ribeyes, mash potato, mac and cheese, green beans, and French fries. The steak was seasoned perfectly and grilled to the perfect temperature to my liking. We are still talking about it, I can't wait to come back and try their chimichurri sauce. We ended with the strawberry and Cinnamon Toast Crunch cheese cake. They weren't too sweet and just the right amount of richness. If they aren't on your list for steak night I definitely recommend!

Everything tasted amazing, the filet was perhaps a little over salted but still delicious. Service 5/5: very friendly and professional with good recommendation and prompt water refill.

This place has been on my bucket list for quite some time. I managed to snag a table for Houston…read moreRestaurants Week this year,and my dining buddy and I were eager to enjoy our Saturday dinner here. We ended up using the valet service as I couldn't find the designated parking lot, and we were already running a bit late. Upon entering, I was surprised by how hot it was. Even the poor hostesses were fanning themselves. It was an exceptionally hot and humid evening, and I found the dining room to be very warm throughout the meal despite us being no where near the front doors. The dining room was packed and very noisy. This is something to make note of if you prefer a more intimate settings. Conversations required almost shouting to be heard. Annoying. Our server gave us the spiel since it was our first time. I was interested in the HRW menu while my dining partner ordered from the regular dinner menu. I was quite impressed with the selection. The focus on premium meat and seafood was very apparent, and the inclusion of items like house made bacon and exquisite A5 wagyu should excite any meat lover. As for rating the food, the following was the result: Steak House salad - 4/5 a bit of a nineties flair with the balsamic drizzle. This was a hearty simple salad with nice presentation. Calamari with peppers - 4/5 I've never had calamari this soft before. The meat is obviously tenderized. The coating is not really crispy either despite appearing as such. The fried fresh jalapeño and Fresno chiles were an interesting touch. Bread service - 4/5 very tasty and again very soft. It was a lot like a giant pull apart fancy dinner roll. The rosemary salt was a good option. 8 oz filet - 3/5 it gets interesting here. I ordered it medium rare plus and was informed they don't do plus temperature cooks. Weird. For a nice steakhouse, I was surprised this wasn't an option. I receive my steak, which has a lovely peppery crust. The inside though is a very deep cool red, as in rare. Granted, I could be generous and label this as rare plus, but it certainly wasn't medium rare. The server insisted this is their standard for medium rare. There is some wiggle room for interpretation, but I've eaten and cooked enough steaks in my life to know the difference. I assume dining at prime time on the busiest day of the week, the kitchen may be rushed a bit, and a thick steak like this isn't rested properly. They refired the steak for me, but it was still deep cool red in the middle, but now with more well done cooked edges. A second attempt was made, and at this point the steak was compromised with a well done past edge and slightly less deep red center. This was barely acceptable as medium rare in the center. The heat is obviously not penetrating to the center. Even the myoglobin in the steak juices was streaked with dark red ribbons. I ate the steak anyway, and it was tender still despite being in a less than ideal state. Double cut Colorado lamb chop with lamb bacon- 4/5 that lamb bacon is very tasty! The lamb chop itself was cooked nicely. Very good, but in the top three? Probably not. Garlic whipped potatoes- 3/5 they were kind of on the goopy and oily side, not really fluffy. The garlic notes were nice and prominent. Cheesecake - 4/5 texture and flavor wise the cheese part was fantastic and not overly sweet. What was missing was an incredible solid graham cracker crust! Theirs was very thin. The server forgot my iced tea and chalked it up to the kitchen being temporarily out. A busser I had asked presented it after I had inquired about it after some time (it was so warm inside that the iced tea was needed!). Girl, it's okay to fess up and said you forgot. She did leave it off the bill though. There was a long lull between appetizers and the mains. Our waitress offered us a complimentary dessert, and I chose chocolate cake to go. We received a small square of cake instead of a full slice. Lol. The restaurant manager did come by and made his rounds throughout the dining room which I thought was a nice touch. I asked him what his favorite main course was, and he said the surprise sleeper was the salmon! A friend had also mentioned the same! When we received the bill, there was a 3% "restaurant operations fee" tacked on. What the? The prices here are already inflated, so this is just insulting to injury. As we were waiting for the valet, I noticed an additional almost 4% charge for using a credit card. Come on! I get that margins are thin at restaurants, but I'm starting to feel a bit nickel and dimed at this point. Overall, I left with a lot of mixed feelings. The food was overall good, but I expected a higher level of food and service. Granted, we were dining during prime time so I am a bit more forgiving, but for the price we paid, the overall expectation of the experience was not quite met. I would tentatively return for the more uniqueness menu items.

Dessert was equally impressive, with both the carrot cake and tiramisu offering a perfect finish. With excellent service and thoughtfully crafted dishes, Marmo has earned a spot on my list of places to return to.

From the HRW menu we had the hamachi, skirt steak, and tiramisu. The hamachi (crudo) tasted very fresh and the garnishes they add goes very well with it, just kinda crazy how that appetizer is already $20 for regular pricing. The skirt steak turned out much better than I expected. For medium rare it was still so tender, juicy, and the roasted garlic elevated the flavor, I'd highly recommend it. Overall very well seasoned. Side note it's 8oz which on the HRW menu is the same as the regular menu. We added on the Squid Ink Campanelle which I've heard is really good and a must-try. It's very rich in flavor and the squid ink doesn't taste earthy or anything. If I remember correctly our server said it was mostly for color. Needless to say I'd highly recommend this as well, probably one of the more unique pasta dishes I've had. Service was great, they take your used plates promptly and give you fresh clean ones. Our server was friendly and was able to explain how the HRW menu worked so we appreciated that. Though the menu is a little pricey, I'd still come back to try their other dishes in the future!
