Now THIS is a speakeasy. I had no idea that I was going to get this experience when coming to…read moreHouston, but I couldn't be happier. The origami ceiling, lively bar, friendly staff, unique cocktails, fun bathroom, and photo booth in the corner made for an unforgettable experience. My friend said it was the busiest he had ever seen the place, and it was loud. But we got some awesome drinks that I swore I could've taken pics of -- the lighting was a little crazy, so I think I ultimately changed my mind with that. One was the periscope which was a refreshing and summery gin drink... And I think I tried the naked and famous too because I like mezcal. I had already eaten so I skipped the restaurant the speakeasy's connected to, but I cannot wait to return to Houston outside of a Con so I can really go all out on exploring. It was an amazing way to end my first night!

I ordered the Side to the Sun Rises (gin, yuzu, mint, cucumber) which was light, refreshing, and well balanced. I would recommend it if you enjoy gin-based cocktails with a slightly fruity flavor. My friends really enjoyed their drinks as well. They have all day happy hour on Sundays/Mondays. We did not get a chance to try the food, but the menu looked great. Overall, a fun spot with great vibes and definitely worth checking out!

Don't forget to grab dessert next door before heading home!

The restaurant is low lit and they have a gelato spot right next door. We dined for dinner so it was 3 courses. First was the shrimp & calamari and meatballs. The meatballs lacked seasoning and only were good with the sauce. The shrimp and calamari id get again but hopefully only rings are an option. For the entree I had chicken parm which was perfectly cooked. It came with a side pasta that was good initially but didn't reheat well. My mom tried the crabmeat tortellini the sauce was a bit too rich and under seasoned so she was able to swap for the bolognese. My pistachio gelato was perfect for dessert. The hazelnut flourless cake was also a hit. Personally I feel like it's a hit or miss depending on what item you get.

The food came in a very timely matter the waitress and anyone working there seem to be very nice and respectable. The ambience is giving very sexy mode, not rowdy, but you can tell this is definitely a hang out spot for adults. It is dark in there they do have table lamps, but I love it. My child did come with so this kid friendly. The food was definitely a nine out of 10 And not so much of just the taste I'm factoring in the presentation as well. The sticky rice was amazing. I mean the shrimp had the perfect type of heat mind you I did Houston restaurant week. So I got three course meal for $39. My first course was the sticky rice 9.5 out of 10 My second course was the fried chicken smothered with gravy and mushroom mashed potatoes and kale greens .. I'm gonna give it a eight out of 10 because I did not like the mushrooms. This gravy wasn't seasoned very well, but it was still very good. My last course was the brownie and oh my God it was absolutely delicious I think that was like my favorite part. I really wanted to order another brownie because it was really good. Overall, I have to get this place at nine out of 10. I'm definitely coming back to try some other meals.

Unfortunately, the parking situation was such a major turnoff that I will not be returning. There is both self-parking and valet, yet you have to pay to park either way--$20. What made it even more frustrating was watching cars leave the parking lot and seeing the parking attendants immediately place cones in the newly available spaces. I drove around looking for a spot and was eventually directed by a parking attendant to park in a space that actually belonged to another business in the shopping center. Despite not even parking in the restaurant's designated area, I was still charged $20. The entire parking setup left a very negative impression and, from a customer's perspective, came across as excessive and greedy. It's unfortunate because the food was good, the atmosphere was enjoyable, and I make a point of supporting local businesses. However, paying $20 just to park--especially under these circumstances--is enough to keep me from returning.

Note that they only seem to do valet parking (in a parking lot btw so a bit lame) and they do automatically charge gratuity as mentioned on the menu, which I actually think is convenient. We saw they had a Restaurant Week menu, so went with that. I had the crab cake for my appetizer. The shocking thing was that this might've been the best crab cake I've ever had, and I've had plenty in Maryland! It was so tender and perfect with the two sauces, like I'm still dreaming of it! My party also had the Caesar salad and the Crispy Sweet Thai Chili Shrimp, both delicious. I also had a Peachy Peach because why not? I had the Braised Bone-in Short Rib, which was flavorful and sauce was fantastic! It could've been braised longer for it to be more tender, but was worth trying. The girls got the USDA Prime New York Strip and the Prime Bone-in Ribeye. Ribeye was flavorful and done the way my mom wanted, which is probably not how I would've wanted it. Only problem was that the Prime NY Strip was inconsistently cooked, with half of it way overdone instead of medium. Since it was cooked so oddly, by the time we noticed, was a bit too late to send back. Maybe they were probably off their game since it was Labor Day to be fair, and it did take awhile for them to check back on us since they seemed short staffed that night. Dessert was good too. We had the Snickerdoodle Bread Pudding and the Butter Cake, the latter probably being the better of the two. I saw their regular menu and felt this would be a good place to order and split the sides family style. I'd love to come back another day and try their main menu, hopefully on a day when the grill masters are on their A-game!

Again, very very generous portion served with mashed potato on the side. There was very a nice smoke flavor to the steaks, but the restaurant could have minimized their burnt parts (my personal preference) their complimentary dessert was this peanut shaped pastry that tasted very much like a kitkat! restroom was 10/10, they even had mints and bobby pins in the ladies for your emergency :)) overall, perfect pick for date nights and fancy business dinner meetings. Staff were very attentive, customers dressed to nines, so come in your best outfits :))

Loved the speakeasy vibes as it is hidden around the corner and up the stairs next to local foods. Very cutesie and unique decor as well with good amount of bar and table seating. They have happy hour wed-fri from 4pm-6pm and we ordered one of everything from the food menu. Duck Fat Fried (Thiqqqq and crispy and airy) Mozzarella Sticks (crispy and cheesy) Raw Oysters (quite fresh and not briny) We also were going to order the wings, but they ran out. But the staff replaced and comp it over the fried ravioli (crispy, great filling). Also ordered a pepperoni pizza and it was pretty good/standard (nice crust). And ordered calamari as well, delicious 2 sauce pairings (marinara and spicy mayo). For drinks, I got the Prickly Pear Margarita with tajin on the rim and it was so refreshing and good amount of liquor taste.
