Perseid - Celebrating Armando's birthday with a delicious dinner and dessert!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Houston, Texas

Came across this hidden gem from a food review. I didn't know there was a hotel in Montrose. So we decided to try out the restaurant for brunch. The atmosphere was laid back and the ambiance was very conducive for a great date spot. The service was impeccable. Never had to wait on anything and the food came out in a timely manner. The food was just like the reviewer had said: the pancakes were delicious and had a lemony taste to them, bacon was just like I like it, crisp but firm with a smoky flavor, roasted potatoes were firm and roasted to perfection and the added sea salt gave them that just right taste that lingers with you, but the star of the show was the Scallion biscuits. They were done to perfection from the texture to the taste and when you added your jam and butter to them, everything went to another dimension. Definitely will be one of my new brunch spots. read more

Came here for Saturday night date night. We got the 3 course prefix menu. Overall, decent experience but wouldn't do it again. Service was great and ambiance was pretty nice. When the weather is nice, the outdoor patio area would be amazing. Food was just ok. I had the pate, cold zucchini soup, chicken paillard and corn risotto. The corn risotto was the best tasting one but heavy on cream/butter and it kinda made me sick (I usually eat very healthy with no butter at all). The best dishes were the desserts actually. The chocolate cake was decadent. read more

Came for HRW lunch to try this highly rated newish (to us) place. The restaurant is tastefully decorated and one huge plus is they didn't cram as many tables into the space. Another plus is that it's not too noisy like many restaurants are these days where you can't have a conversation without shouting. Service was of a decent level! Sadly the food wasn't really stellar. Liked the cold zucchini soup and tomato as I thought its innovative and the tomatoes sorbet really brightened the soup. It's pretty yo look at too! The corn risotto was just ok, especially if you compare it to Le Jardinier's corn risotto which was also offered on the HRW menu. The salad came quite messy, chunky and unrefined, it also was not very flavorful. The fish was good! I'd consider coming back to the bar for a cocktail for the ambience of the place but probably won't be eager to return for the food. read more

Found out couple days ago that they also have HRW and they serve pate on the menu. I love Pate a lot so I told my friend we have to go there today since this is the last week. 1st impression was the hostess at the podium didn't look friendly at all. She looked so grouchy. Could be she has a bad day but it sure affected toward the customers. After sat down and went thru the menu for 10min we decided to order. And super disappointed that pate is not available . The server told us they are making the pate now. Really at 12pm when lunch is served??? No substitution offered beside the 2 existing options were salad and cold soup. Which I don't like any. The server should have notified the customers when they lay down the menu. Plus the restaurant should have known that during HRW most of the customers will be ordering the HRW menu and they should have be prepared. It's quite disappointed to drive all the way there and the restaurant didn't have it read more

Came in a Saturday for an impromptu brunch with a friend and almost passed it up because the boutique hotel looks like residential apartments. I was able to find parking nearby on the street and made it inside before the rain started. We were seated and quickly greeted by our waiter. After a brief discussion, we agreed on what we wanted to order, only to be told they were out of the quiche. We opted for; -Fresh scallion Biscuits -steak & eggs (soft scramble) -Caesar Salad We prefer to order and eat everything family style and the food did not disappoint. Biscuits are a must. They are buttery, crispy on the outside and pillowy on the inside w/ fresh jam and butter. Also the steak was amazing (happy they were out of the quiche) and its served with eggs and potatoes. We will definitely add them to the Rolodex. Enter freely, they've been approved read more

Perseid is truly unmatched--they bring the absolute best, so you just need to bring yours! The ambiance is incredibly versatile; it can easily be a fun brunch spot with your friends or a vibey, premium date night location. ​I completely enjoyed everything, down to the details. The croutons in the Caesar salad are made from actual homemade sourdough bread, fried fresh to order, and they are absolutely delicious. Normally, I have to steer completely clear of bread due to gluten, but they use a high-quality, special flour here that my system handled with absolutely no issues or reactions. It truly makes you feel special dining here. ​A massive shout-out to my waitress, Sarah! She gave off the most pleasant, soft, kind, and compassionate vibes from the moment she stepped up to the table. She made an amazing experience even better. I will definitely be back! read more

We came back for more! It feels like an escape from Houston. Service is helpful. Pluses A. Free bread and butter great to begin with 1. Outdoor patio with fans is great and the music selection is much improved and a good volume so you can hear your dining companion 2. Bolognese pasta is still great 3. New lamb dish is delish, meat is juicy 4. Gelato trio nice to end in a refreshing cool note 5. Filled beignets always wins especially when there is strawberry filling 6. Carajillo yummy Areas to improve 1. Leeks appetizer was a huge disappointment- not that tasty and had a big gob of dressing on the side 2. I don't eat raw or caviar so I wish they had more appetizers It's great dining for special occasions, highly recommended! read more

I love love the ambiance of this place upscale but not stuffy and super creative. It is in a hotel so either park valet or find street parking. Our waiter was great as well with recommendations. The food and drinks here were pretty good. I was surprised since I ordered some foods I don't typically go for and ended up thoroughly enjoying them. Pastrami cured salmon: 8/10 It was pretty good and the beets and crème added to it. It was definitely more deconstructed than I liked but it was pretty refreshing and filling. Walk in the park cocktail: 10/10! Absolutely delicious! It's super refreshing and very similar to an apérol spritz with lots of complementary flavors such as jasmine and strawberry. I feel like I absolutely need to come back here for dinner and fully sample the menu read more

Let's start with the ambiance...very romantic or intimate for larger groups. Went to the restaurant on a Thursday and sat inside. Most folks were seating outside. This restaurant is in the middle of a hotel that looks like apartments. It took a while for a first timer who's not familiar with the area to find. There's plenty of street parking around the property. I did also see signs for valet parking but unclear about pricing. The food was shared within our group. I don't take picture of everything but this Risotto with mushrooms pictured...whew I inhaled that food. So creamy, tasty, and the mushroom had a bit of a crunch. I also tasted the salmon pate appetizer with chips. So, so good! We had one server that greeted us and took our order. But we interacted with two others or what maybe the managers. The service is spectacular and you are well taken care of. I will be bringing my spouse here next time we're in the area. Thank you for a wonderful visit! read more

My wife and I were really looking forward to celebrating our anniversary at Perseid since we have had several wonderful experiences at Bludorn. The location is very interesting, the Hotel St Augustine. This hotel is like no other in Houston. Absolutely loved the ambiance of the restaurant. The service was not good. Our server was very nice, but she was slow, forgot our orders at two different incidents, and had to continually ask her to refill our water. The food was a conundrum. One minute they are hitting a grand slam and other times they grounded out. The bread, squash blossoms, and the hanger/flank steak (come tender remember which one), and wild boar bolognese were so good. The tuna tartine and bib lettuce salad were okay. Regret not getting the Caesar salad. My wife was so excited to get the beignets. Wow they absolutely sucked. They were room temp on the outside and slightly cold on the inside. They had a rubbery consistency. So bad! If I'm spending $200 on a meal I expect more. Definitely will not be back, but may do a staycation at the Hotel St. Augustine. read more

Found this restaurant via HRW, but ended up not ordering off of the HRW menu as it didn't have notable entrees from the main menu AND the HRW menu was different than the website. Honestly, it's a pet peeve of mine when restaurants don't put their best foot forward on a HRW menu and even worse when you show up and the menu is different. FYI we were going to order the trout and it had been replaced by salmon. After some deliberation since we could not go with Plan A, our off menu picks were the salmon dip, wild boar bolognese, and the snapper. The salmon dip was very good (5/5), and I could taste the smokiness. The chips were crisp, but some were oversalted and overwhelmed the bite in some cases. Now, let me just tell you, this was a dainty portion and not meant to be shared. I was informed the HRW portion was even smaller, so I'm glad we ordered off the main menu, or else we would have each only gotten one bite a piece. The wild boar bolognese was indeed top notch (5/5) as the pasta was cooked perfectly and the ratio of pasta to bolognese was just right. Now, it did get to be too much for me by the end, but that's likely because I usually prefer a cream/white sauce. We did order the full order, and it's definitely a sharing plate. We ended up taking some home - maybe 2-3 bites worth. The snapper was done well (4/5), but I'd still take the bolognese over the snapper. We finished by splitting the chocolate entremet (5+/5), which comes with coffee ice cream, and I'd return just for this dish. I don't drink coffee, but I love coffee flavored desserts, and the ice cream is very coffee forward. Add the moist, rich, chocolate cake, and it was the perfect bite. There was something crispy in on the plate, and it added some nice texture. I am not a fan of caramel in general, but the salted caramel here was just enough to enhance the bite. As far as service (4.5/5), it was excellent as expected of a high-end restaurant, but I knocked it half a point because of a bizarre exchange with the waiter at the beginning of our meal. After noticing that the trout on the HRW had been replaced by a salmon, I asked "So how's the salmon?" I expected either a thumbs up or down, or some description of how it was prepared, but I got neither. Instead, I received a mansplaining of how salmon was a fish and just like trout. First of all, I think salmon is a very distinct fish and not like any other. The fact that he tried to tell me that trout was the same thing as salmon was concerning. And that he felt like he had to tell me that salmon was a fish was also a bit insulting. I will give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he didn't understand my question. As others have said, street parking is abundant - I did not see any street signs prohibiting parking during certain hours. Also, this "hotel" is not like a typical Marriott or Hyatt - it's multiple buildings sprawled over a large area (no high rise) with a resort type feel. Walk in through any of the open gates and follow the signs to the restaurant. They don't have a dress code, but I did notice all the men wore pants and all the women wore dresses (mostly below the knee). Nothing too formal, but I was glad I chose to wear a summer dress (although above the knee). read more

Skip the short rib. While tender, the flavor profile was nonexistent. (I will say that they removed this from our bill, which I appreciate.) Go for the shrimp and grits--it is flavorful and the grits are, perhaps, the creamiest grits I've ever had the pleasure of enjoying. Add some bacon on the side and sit back. Enjoy the modern aesthetic of this artsy place. Service wasn't extraordinary...a little on the slow side. The beignets are peachy, but could have been warmer. read more

They're tucked away inside this quite unique hotel San Augustine in Montrose, this is a pretty spot to visit if you can navigate to it. It's the onsite dining option for the hotel but certainly open to the public. Upscale bistro appearance on the inside and you get plenty of added visuals from the hotel courtyard. The service is professional and polite, ready to help you all along your meal. I was so pleasantly surprised by how much I loved the appetizers, all of the hit the mark for me in interesting and different ways. The Duck terrine (loaf), was just something I was trying on a whim and somehow the bite that was put together with the jam, mustard, pickles, and greens was probably one of my favorite things I've tried in a while. Tuna tartine was executed at a high level, and just hits the notes you want for fresh fish. My Mahi Mahi was cooked and seasoned well but I think the sandwich just looks sad and the toppings don't add enough to make this necessary as a handheld item. The rest of the entrees looked great, if not familiar but still having something unexpected included. Aaron Bludorn continues his batting average hit streak for Houston restaurants at Perseid. read more

We came during Houston Restaurant Weeks and we are glad we made the trip. The restaurant has great decor and it's in the middle of a new hotel. Very cool vibes. The service was good and the waiter was attentive and friendly. We liked the ambiance of this place. A nice place to eat. The food was really good. I loved the salmon dip and the beignets were probably some of the best I've ever had. The chicken was nicely cooked and the dish was delicious, but maybe not what I would get on a non-HRW visit. The trout was awesome and perfectly cooked, but maybe a little small. But given that we're talking about the $25 HRW Brunch, I guess I understand. The gazpacho was good too. My wife thought it was a little acidic. Overall, I do recommend this place and think it's worth the visit. I may have had critiques, but by no means does that mean it was a great meal. Check it out if you have a chance. read more

Fairly interesting spot inside the revamped apartments which make up the new "hotel" in the St. Thomas area. Street parking is what's available for this area. The restaurant was quite hard to find as it's located inside the hotel complex. The interior is modern and full service. We ordered most of the limited appetizer menu; tuna tartine (4/5), duck terrine (4/5), smoked salmon dip (3.5/5), squash blossoms (3/5). The Caesar salad was solid (4.5/5) and done well. On the whole, the apps were good. The squash blossoms really didn't have much flavor and wasn't very recognizable. I got the red snapper for main, and it was solid (4/5). The sauce was delicious and the fish was cooked well as the skin had some texture and the filet was tender. Overall, a solid take. Hard to find! read more

I really wanted to love this place, but the experience just wasn't it. Parking was confusing, so I called the restaurant for directions, but even then the instructions weren't clear and ended up having to valet. Thank goodness valet people had umbrella because it was pouring that day and the walk to the restaurant was quite long. Because of that, I ended up arriving about 5 minutes past the 15-minute grace period. Despite having called ahead, they didn't hold the table and told me it would now be an hour wait. I ended up sitting at the bar instead, which was frustrating. The food itself was good, but the poor handling of service and lack of flexibility really took away from the experience. With so many other great spots in Houston, it's hard to justify coming back when the basics like parking and reservations aren't handled well. read more

Where do I even begin. I was brought here to celebrate a belated bday. From the moment we walked in we felt warmly welcomed. The ambiance was warm and cozy yet high end luxe. I loved every single detail in the decor. Service was attentive and friendly. The staff knows the menu thoroughly which made for great suggestions. The food was extraordinarily delectable. I would go back just for the appetizers at any point. My pork shoulder atop a heartwarming yet citrus lentil bed just played on my taste buds so well. The wine selection was fabulous and the cocktails just as great. The apple pie and cream stuffed beignets were the happy ending to a great meal. 10/10 would recommend! read more

My friend and I came with my daughter to celebrate our friendship anniversary. I thought the overall service was attentive but casual and relaxed. They even brought out extra plates for my daughter - muy cute. The most exciting part of the menu is the appetizers. The ratatouille and escargot are not to be missed. My friend was terrified of ordering it but we did anyway and loved every bite. Honestly, all you could taste was butter and mushrooms. The ratatouille was so cozy. It reminded me of a stew in terms of taste but was full of vegetables and a crusty Parmesan number on top. Of the two desserts we ordered - the chocolate was the full star. I would come back just to have another slice. We actually didn't order any mains as I've seen them on many restaurant menus although I'm sure they would be done well here. The appetizers were actually a great size, bigger than tapas but not as big as a main. read more

Dined in on a Saturday at 7:45 pm for a party of 5. I was the first to arrive and had to wait at the bar. I was seated when my second guest arrived. Our server, Andrew, was kind but a tad timid and unfamiliar with some of the dishes we asked about. The light was on, but there was no one upstairs. We ordered: Smoked salmon dip: very tasty, not too smoky Duck terrine: good ole duck meatloaf, it comes with homemade biscuit, but we ate the chips from the smoked salmon with it, needs a crunch Caesar salad: very good flavors, one of the best Caesar salad, croutons were giant and fresh Burrata salad (was given on accident): we didn't order this, and probably never will, it was least liked dish Squash blossom: batter was too thick, can't see the blossom, the stuffing was just ok, looked and tasted like the jalapeño poppers from Jack in the crack Escargot en Vol au Vent: bland, the snails are micro size Saint Augustine burger: flavors are odd, the buns were soaked up in the meat juice and was super soggy, fries were good Wild boar bolognese: second favorite dish Red snapper: favorite main dish, fresh snapper Pommes puree: creamy goodness Beignets: decent fried goodness Crème brulee: the cream was not creamy enough but good flavors read more

Like other reviewers have said Perseid is one of Aaron Bludorn's restaurants. I haven't been to Bludorn yet, but I have tried Navy Blue in Rice Village. My friend and I had the opportunity to try this restaurant on a Sunday evening. It is located a block down from 93' Til and is the restaurant for Saint Augustine hotel in Montrose. The area itself is beautiful. It feels like a retreat compared to the normal hustle and bustle of Montrose. It was quiet and serene. Valet is expensive, but luckily there were plenty of street parking for a reservation at 6:45 pm. If you valet and walk through the beautiful lobby and Augustine Lounge, the restaurant is located straight ahead with the beautiful planters and outdoor seating. We parked on the side, so if you walk in through the boardwalk, follow the signs. I will say that late at night (left around 9:30 pm), the side entrances are locked, and the only way out is through the front, possibly due to safety. After all, it is a hotel. I had a non alcoholic rosé which was lovely. Generous portion. You can get still or sparkling water. They had a 2-day special Côte de Boeuf which was a 32 oz bone in prime rib with 3 sauces and 3 sides. The chef and general manager came out to present it. The chef explained the dish, though he sounded a bit nervous and unsure of what he had to actually say other than describe the dish. Felt a little forced. Then they took it back for the chef to slice it for us. It took about 40 minutes or so before we got our full meal. We didn't mind too much because we were talking, and our amazing server Sam came to check on us often and update us. The sides were pretty good. The haricot vert almondine was green beans with butter/oil, almonds, and golden raisins. Great flavor but a little oily. The asparagus with gribiche sauce had thick asparagus and a generous portion of sauce. Ever since having gribiche sauce at Credence, it quickly became one of my favorites. The asparagus was a little watery but cooked thoroughly. The gribiche sauce was also great with the prime rib. The prime rib came with a horseradish cream, bernaise, and sauce au poivre. All were good, but I mostly used the gribiche and horseradish. Sadly, the pommes dauphinoise was undercooked. If you can't scoop scalloped potatoes and need a knife to cut through it, that's a problem. I barely ate that because the thin slices of potato were still firm/crispy. It needed longer in the oven. We ended the evening with a shared dessert - chocolate entremet. It was rich, but the chocolate cake was moist. The salted caramel added sweetness, and the quenelled coffee ice cream helped cut some of the richness. The coffee ice cream was like espresso. Definitely a stronger flavor compared to other coffee ice creams I've had. I thought this place was nice and quaint. Simple yet minimalist elegance. Loved all the fiddle leaf plants. Restrooms are unisex and large and clean. The restaurant was surprisingly quiet on a Sunday evening but maybe because it was game 7 of the Rockets vs Warriors. Sad about the outcome. Btw, there are no TVs at the restaurant or the Augustine Lounge across. I think the point is to live in the moment and have a conversation rather than watch TV. We had plenty of prime rib and a few sides left, so it was boxed and bagged for us. Like Le Jardinier and Credence, you're given a number key chain to pick up your leftovers as you leave. read more

This place is so cute.. and for a moment I forgot I was in Houston!! Beautiful hotel and restaurant. When you arrive, you're arriving at Hotel Saint Augustine. They have complimentary valet for guests checking in and the restaurant. If you follow the path, it leads you to the restaurant that has great vibes. We ordered the Cesar Salad and Duck Terrine as appetizers. I was full after eating just these two meals. The cesar salad had the best sourdough croutons!! Must get it. For the mains, I got the BLT Sandwich and my friend got the burger. She mentioned the burger was just okay, but the BLT had the biggest, thickest bacon slices. I really enjoyed it. Chips and french fries were also good. For dessert we got beignets and they were good, but we were so full, we couldn't finish it all. Service was top notch. I felt very taken care of and it was super clean/nice. Definitely check them out. Also.. think about a staycation here! So cute! read more

Anyone who knows me can guarantee I will recommend the namesake restaurant of Chef Bludorn. It remains one of my favorites! When Perseid was first announced, I knew I'd have to pay a visit. This establishment focuses on french cuisine with a focus to Southern Cajun roots. For those that have visited other Bludorn establishments, you'll find many of the same themes. First, the decor is a perfect balance of minimalist, a mid-century modern vibe, and upscale without feeling pretentious. Perseid is no different. It's a great spot to take a date or celebrate. For those unfamiliar it's located inside St. Augustine hotel in the middle of the hotel budings. For parking, there is a valet at the hotel entrance and you can validate at the restaurant, but it will still cost you a little. Alternatively, there is plenty of street parking available around the area, if you're patient. Now let's get into it! Food and Drinks - 4* For drinks we went with a Dreamcatcher, which was very refreshing with a unique balance of flavors that will toy with your taste buds. The Vesperado #2 is served chilled up and is definitely a choice for anyone that likes to taste their booze. Both were good. The menu is laid out similar to other Bludorn establishments and you'll find some items that run consistent. Another item that runs consistent is the need to place the order for all appetizer and mains at the same time. So be prepared if you're not! On this visit we weren't overtly hungry so we kept it to one appetizer, the smoked salmon dip. It wasn't as tasty as some other smoked fish dips we've had, but it wasn't disappointing either. There just wasn't a heavy smoked taste to the salmon like with past fish dips such as redfish. I particularly wasn't a huge fan of the crisps/potatoe chips they were served with. They were a bit soft and mushy. As if there was too much oil used or not fried long enough. For the mains with elected for the chicken paillard and hanger steak. The chicken paillard was flavorful, but it wasn't anything that had us saying oh my goodness, I'd order this everyday. For the hanger steak, it was cook perfectly at rare-medium rare with a nice deep red center. The sauce that accompanied it was good though notably something we both noticed about each of our dishes was they just weren't that hot? Everything was just, warm bordering on, can this be heated it up. That was one of the turn-offs of both dishes. Service - 4* The service was about as expected. The waiters know the dishes well and they are attentive. On this visit there was only one occasion where we both ran out of water. One item we did noticed is how pushy the drive to sell more cocktails was. We were asked at least three times by three different people. Maybe because it was empty and they never cleared it? Cost - 5* Always subjective however it falls in line with other Bludorn establishments. Generally the pricing is worthy of the experience, the quality, and quantity. Overall - 4* This spot is definitely one to check out with friends, family, or a date. Personally, I'll probably stick to Bludorn as I just find the experience from start to finish to be a well-oiled machine that never disappoints! read more

We ended up at Perseid for a last-minute celebration, drawn in by Aaron Bludorn's newest concept (I'm a big fan of Bludorn, so expectations were high). I accidentally booked a 7:30 AM reservation, but the team caught it, called to confirm, and fixed it without a hitch. Already a great first impression. I also requested a patio table thinking it'd be nice to sit outside since Houston hasn't fully melted yet--but the staff gently overruled me and moved us inside. Smart call. The space is very much a vibe--70s-chic, relaxed, and stylish. It leaned a little loud for the laid-back atmosphere, but nothing that ruined the experience. Service was a touch slow, but nothing that bothered us since we were enjoying the company. I started with a Walk in the Park (jasmine tea vodka, strawberry, tarragon, lemon, Aperol). Our server gave me a heads up that it leaned sweet and offered to have the bartender tone it down, which I appreciated. The flavor was refreshing and oddly familiar in a way I couldn't quite place. We kicked off with the Caesar salad, which was good--perfectly dressed--but I'd been hoping for a bit more presentation. I thought I had seen it prepared table side online :/ The crawfish sausage was flavorful but the texture wasn't quite for me. For dinner, I had the roasted duck breast with rice pilaf, almond, apricot, and sauce Albufera. It was beautifully executed--rich, balanced, and the clear standout of the night. Duck is a typical go to for me and this did not disappoint. Dessert was the ice cream trio--coffee, malted chocolate, and pistachio. And listen... pistachio ice cream is the GOAT. If you know, you know. I topped dinner off with an Irish coffee, way too much baileys and 0 whisky. Not my preferred preparation. Overall, Perseid is a great new addition to the Montrose dining scene. Tucked away inside the Hotel Saint Augustine Im jealous of the guests, especially one guest we saw on their balcony with a big fluffy cat... I don't think you can have cats in hotels which is criminal in my opinion. With the Bludorn team behind it, I'm excited to see how perseid evolves. I'll definitely be back to check out the lounge and the restaurant! read more

The service was great -- the atmosphere is beautiful -- but unfortunately I just didn't connect with the food. The crawfish sausage was very heavily fish flavored. The steak was fine. The best part was the dessert and honestly, the space is pretty enough I might consider coming for a drink & dessert. read more

Had a lovely dinner at Perseid! We had 7:45 reservations on a Friday night and were able to easily find street parking. Once we were seated and ordered cocktails it did take a little while for them to come out, but we really enjoyed them. I ordered the Noble Night Heron and would order again. We didn't get the complimentary bread and butter right away, maybe they intentionally wait until closer to your meal? Not sure. Throughout the evening the staff made sure our waters were full and plates were taken away quickly once we finished. I even had a nice chat with the manager, Michael, who was checking on tables! Our waiter Josh was great and was very patient with us when we kept accidentally blowing out the candle on our table lol. We decided to split a caesar salad to start and they so kindly brought it out already portioned into two servings for us! My friend had the Hanger Steak which was fine, but the star of the show was my Wild Boar Bolognese. You absolutely have to get it if you love a pasta dish! The dinner portion was huge and so, so good. Overall we had a wonderful evening and felt very welcomed by the personable staff. At the end of our night we strolled around the beautiful courtyard, daydreaming about a staycation at Hotel Saint Augustine! read more

stopped by unexpectedly on a Wednesday evening after grabbing drinks at the bar in Hotel Saint Augustine. I must say from entering Perseid to leaving the service was 100/10! Our host was so kind, answered all questions and was not too pushy about allowing us to dine with them. Our service Nancy was the best and so was the entire staff from the Som to other servers. I haven't had service this well in Houston in a long time. I had the Caesar salad ($16) and added chicken. Bringing my total to $31. Now that was shocking, considering a chicken breast shouldn't be $16. but since the service was so great I gladly paid it. I will ask more price questions in the future. read more

I might move to Houston just to eat here regularly. My first time to Houston and Peresid and neither one disappointed. I couldn't get enough of it every plate I had, everything was cooked to perfection and the flavors were just amazing. The restaurant is beautiful and great for a special occasion or date night. The staff are friendly, kind and on top of it, they got a great team and everyone is always taking care you. Now to the food: - the tuna tartare is good, refreshing, flavorful and on toast - SQUASH BLOSSOMS ARE A MUST - a seasonal item, one wasn't enough, I wanted more, you have to try them - the boar bolognese is perfect, great flavor and the half portion is enough for one, go with the full if you want left overs - ratatouille, great flavor and would be a great dish to share - creme brûlée is a must! It's refreshing, the sorbet is amazing, and the pineapple slices with coconut flakes, make it sweet and tangy - you have to try it. 100/10 recommend this restaurant to everyone in Houston, it's a must try spot! read more

Food: - squash blossoms. If you like the Bludorn ones, you'll love these. They're even more flavorful! Every table around us ordered them. - burrata salad. So refreshing and delicious! Light salad and perfect size for two to share. - red snapper. So much flavor. It was really good and the pine nuts with fregola was such a good texture contrast. I'd def get this again! - ratatouille. Probably my fave. Tasted kind of like an Indian or Pakistani veggie stew. I loved it. - chocolate entremet. Yes. Just yes. The cake was moist and crumbly, the salted caramel was perfect and not overly sweet at all (neither was the cake). The chocolate feuillotine crunch was phenomenal. I'd eat this again and again! Ambiance: - beautiful and romantic. Perfect for a date night. Service: - the staff are incredibly hospitable and kind. They are very welcoming and always checking in. The appetizers came out quick. However, the main course (snapper and ratatouille) took a long time. We had reservations for 5:30 but at 7:00 we were still there. We really REALLY wanted dessert but because we were there for a while and had another event, we had to leave. The manager knew we were celebrating something and immediately came to our table as we were signing the check to say he wanted to pack a surprise for us. He sent us home with a perfectly packaged chocolate entremet which I will say--DIVINE. I would come back in a heartbeat. Even though the night took longer than expected, the hospitality and food alone is enough reason to visit again. read more

Came here for a galentines dinner and it was such a dreamy experience from start to finish. The restaurant is located inside a hotel, which already gives it that elevated, tucked away gem energy. The ambiance is SO cute! Warm, cozy, and perfect for a girls' night or a romantic dinner. The boar bolognese was absolutely the star of the night. Rich, flavorful, perfectly balanced. The Caesar salad also surprised us in the best way. Simple, but done so well. Crisp, fresh, and super satisfying. And the desserts? INSANE. Like, the kind where everyone goes quiet for a second because you're just processing how good it is. On top of that, the service was fantastic. Attentive, friendly, and made the whole night feel special without being overbearing. Overall, such a cute spot with delicious food, great ambiance, and awesome service. Definitely coming back. read more

Delicious french (and I think cajun fusion) food with perfect desserts. Another great Bludorn restaurant. We had the escargot, the duck, and the gnocchi - all of which I would eat again! The escargot was delicious and buttery but not greasy with the light pastry around it. The duck was perfectly tender with a not too sweet mango sauce on a bed of black rice. The gnocchi was delicious and when the restaurant misplaced our leftovers, they quickly made us a new half order to replace it free of cost. ambience is intimate and chic and it fits well within its home at the Hotel St. Augustine. We stayed there for Valentine's weekend and enjoyed a beautiful dinner at Perseid on Valentine's Day. We went to the lounge across from the restaurant after and had a great cocktail. There's street parking and also a valet. read more

Came for lunch and glad there was a prix fixe option. Our favorite dish was the trout! Also the croutons on the caesar salad were very tasty; not too oily, interesting bouncy texture. The other dishes were a-okay: tuna tartine, smoke salmon dip, caesar salad. Would pass on the gnocchi Ample street parking during the day time. read more

We came here for our anniversary brunch before spending our day in the museum dist. It was our first time and we were greeted upon entry. We didn't have a reservation and sat at the bar which was fine for us. The grounds and restaurant are great. The hostess was pleasant and the bartender, Asia, was fantastic and made great drinks. The vibe of the restaurant is so great. A mix of old school french(ish) and modern. The food was also amazing. We will definitely be back and can highly suggest with confidence. read more

I felt my meal was amazing but almost cried when the waitress took my food away without offering a box. I know, I know, it may not be classy to take food home but, my stomach is finite and I really wanted to eat more later. The flavor of the Beef Bourguignon was amazing - loved it so much. The Wild Boar Bolognese was just ok per Brent - pasta's not typically my thing so just have his comment to rely on. The atmosphere of the restaurant was nice as well. The layout was perfect - enough people near to be lively but, enough space to have a good conversation at the table. The decor was upscale but not quite my style but, all in all a very lovely dinner - we will be back. read more

We had a fantastic birthday dinner here and can't wait to come back. They're located inside of the Hotel Saint Augustine, but I would def recommend making a reservation. They have valet available for a fee, but we opted for street parking. The interior of the restaurant was so cute! It's located right across from the hotel bar. To start, we got the escargot and their complementary bread and butter. The escargot is a must!!!! Not soaked in butter like so many of us are used to, but very tender and perfectly balanced with the puff pastry. Our entrees included the half order of gnocchi, the duck, and the coq au vin. The duck was our clear favorite!!! The other entrees were good as well, but the duck was the stand out entree. For dessert we got the creme brûlée and the strawberry eclair. Both a good way to end the meal. Hubby liked the eclair better but I liked the creme brûlée better so it really comes down to personal preference. Service was excellent! Will def be back! read more
