    Breakfast Menu 05.30.2026
    Angelica L.

    Overall: 3.2/5 [dine in] We dined here for breakfast twice and dinner once since we had free breakfast and dining credit through Chase. The service was great but the food took forever to come out both times. If you want to eat by the pool you have to be a hotel guest and order to go. They also missed one of our side swaps and forgot to switch out the potato hash for fresh fruit. Iced Hazelnut Latte ($6.50) and Iced Vanilla Latte ($6.50): We got both with oat milk and they were equally tasty. Hangover Burger ($22): We ordered medium rare and it came out overcooked. The patty was so hard it was difficult to cut through and I had to drench mine in sauce because it was so dry. They cut it in half and served the sunny side up egg separately so the yolk wouldn't run, which was a thoughtful touch. The potato hash was okay but felt like unnecessary carbs. Sausage ($8): A side of 3 links that tasted like maple syrup since they were on the sweeter side. Short Rib Eggs Benedict ($24): The short rib was just okay and the hollandaise sauce was too thick, almost like the egg in it was overcooked. It also had a citrus aftertaste at first. The poached eggs were perfect though. Smoked Salmon Eggs Benedict ($24): Way better than the short rib version. The smoked salmon wasn't fishy and they were generous with it. We swapped the potato hash for arugula salad which paired really well. Classic Omelette ($21): I got it with fresh eggs, chicken sausage, and all the veggies. I asked for pepper jack on the side since my husband is lactose intolerant but the cheese had a white powder on it so I skipped it. Without the cheese the omelette was a bit bland and I couldn't really taste the chicken sausage either. Tuna Poke Taco ($18): Came with two tacos. The tuna was soy marinated but they used too much and it was a bit salty with soy sauce dripping out of the taco. The tuna itself and everything else was good though. Half Dozen Oysters ($24): Served with a green apple champagne mignonette. Pricey but not bad. Shrimp and Basil Mint Pasta ($36): Came with 2 slices of sourdough that were just okay and felt unnecessary. The shrimp were tasty but the pasta was disappointing. Too much pasta, not cooked properly, and no veggies. The flavors were just okay too. Expensive for what was essentially a bowl of carbs. H-Town Henry ($18): Hennessy VS, lemonade, and sweet tea. Neither my husband nor I liked it much. It tasted like a watered down Hennessy drink.

    THE BIG: Located in the lobby of the Thompson Houston. Indoor seating along with an expansive outdoor patio area that has foldable glass doors to bring in all the fresh air. Garage parking available. THE BLACK AND WHITE: The wife and I was staying at the Thompson and had our two month old son with us. It was our first time bringing him out. Most of the seating is chairs and tables, however in the back there are booths that we were able to have him stretch out. Food wise, we got the omelete, granola, and chicken and waffles. All were pretty decent, nothing blew my mind. Service was also a miss with our food slow to come out and general waiting of the table even when the place wasn't packed. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall, the food was decent. We spent around $60 for everything. I wouldn't go out of my way to have the food but the view and the patio vibes are definitely a must visit.

    SPRITZ DEL SoL & hibiscus margarita
    Alice H.

    We missed the breakfast and decided to come down for lunch before checking out. Their drink menu had lots of selections. We ordered the Hisbiscus Margarita and the Spritz del sol, which made with casamigos blanco, pineapple, lime, and jalapeno. Both drinks were delicious. I had the Jumbo lump crab cake, which came with spicy aioli, argula salad, and truffle fries. It's really fullfilling, the spicy aioli was amazing. But the crab cake itself was abit too salty and the flavor felt slightly overwhelming. We also got the Carne Asada, which came with marinated carne asada, aaroz verde, charr roasted pepeprs, onions, and flour tortillas. The carnae asada was cooked perfectly, juicy and tender, with spot on flavor. Highly recommended!

    Beet salad

    Amazing everything! We had the Beet Salad and the Blackened Salmon. Amazing views too!

    Came for happy hour after checking in for my stay cation at the Thompson hotel.Hostess seemed very flustered as she was going back and forth prior to seating the guest before me. We waited a while for her to find an "available table" even though there were about 7 open ones. I was here to relax so no biggie. One thing that was weird is she seemed to be unaware of the happy hour so it's best to do your research and ask. My servers tag teamed and both were well versed on the menu items. I had the crab cakes with asparagus and fries. For drinks I had the strawberry daiquiri and margarita. Everything was good.

    Oysters

    I really wanted to do the whole rooftop bar thing but it was 92 out and felt like 102, so no thanks. Went with indoor seating but still wanted a view, and this place nailed it. It wasn't busy, so we had no trouble getting a table. Service was friendly, our waiter was great, and everyone else on staff seemed nice too. We ordered ahi tacos, oysters, fries, and a crab cake. Fries were super crispy and seasoned just right. Oysters were way milder than what I'm used to from the Pacific, but still fresh. The tacos were a little messy but tasty, and the crab cake was flavorful without being heavy. We tried to order lava cake, but they were out, so we ended up with some kind of mousse dessert--good enough. Drinks were solid. I had an espresso martini and a "verde" and both were lovely. The view is gorgeous, the vibe is kind of fun and edgy, and it felt like a perfect spot for a date night. Would definitely go back when I'm in the mood for something with a view but don't want to melt outside.

    Sol 7 is located inside the Thompson Hotel. We visited for breakfast on a weekend morning. The food was tasty but expensive! They have plenty of vegetarian options for breakfast. We ordered the avocado toast and omelette. The avocado toast was unique and the sauce combination was delicious. We chose to sit outside for a view. It was a hot summer day but the fans running outside helped with the heat.

    I chose Sol7 from its OpenTable reviews and great view of the Houston skyline as it was mine and my coworkers last evening in the area. We arrived to a beautiful high rise building; very excited to see this is where we would be dining, as we had drove past this building multiple times while traveling for work. Parking was a bit challenging, but we found a spot relatively close in a self park lot. We went up the restaurant and were greeted by the hostess who was shuffling back and forth helping the various customers arriving. We were seated at probably the worse table in the outside seating area. When I noticed there were multiple tables open with an actual view (not behind a giant pillar), the hostess (Andre) said the only options were this table or inside tables. When I inquired about the open tables with a view, he proceeded to tell me those were "for guests that had specified a view table in their reservation". Me, knowing I had specified such seating in my OpenTable reservation, started to pull my phone out and verbally said "yes, that is what I requested with my reservation." Andre then replied to me stating "This is the table you will be dining at this evening!" in an unpleasant, sharp tone without giving me time to show him the reservation on OpenTable. My colleague and I settled into our seats rather astounded by the treatment by Andre, we were greeted by our wonderful waiter, Nick, who took our drink and appetizer order. Nick had my colleague and I keep our menus, as we were not sure what entree we would be ordering yet. A few minutes passed, my colleague and I had set our menus on the table, and Andre re-appeared at our table abruptly. I greeted him with the best smile I could muster up, and he asked "If we had been helped yet?" I responded with "Yes, Nick is taking care of us". Andre then asked "Have you been able to order?" I responded, with "Yes, we have placed our order for drinks and appetizers." Andre then responded with "Well, are you done with your menus?" I responded "No, we have not placed our order for our Entree yet." Visibly annoyed, in an aggressive and annoyed tone Andre responded with "Well that's what I was asking!" and he stormed off. Again, rather stunned, my colleague and I found this "hospitality" quite unpleasant and completely uncalled for. Luckily, Nick reappeared a few moments later with our drink order and appetizers. We were able to place our order with Nick for our Entree's and handed him back our menus (I hope that they made their way back to Andre...?) On a positive note, I would highly recommend the "H-Town Tea". Also the Salmon was delicious, perfectly cooked and flavored with the right amount of spices. There was also live music, which was a pleasant surprise. It was very disappointing though to be treated in a poor manner by the hostess, Andre. I'm well aware that customer service jobs are exceedingly challenging, but to be aggressive and unpleasant to communicate with is totally unacceptable by staff that should be interested in making your dinning a positive experience.

    Fruit salad
    Deborah W.

    Rating: 2.5 Stars My friend and I stayed at the Thompson Hotel on a Thursday night. We ordered room service from here on Thursday night and got breakfast the next morning. Room service: Was quite fast. Food itself was ok. I got a couple items I shared with my friend: COBB SALAD: Lots of toppings but was a bit bland and lacking on dressing especially with how much lettuce was given. Their bacon was really good though. CLUB SANDWICH: Also quite bland for some reason. Bread was also not toasted and the meat was dry. Definitely could have been a lot better. DUCK FAT FRIES: The fries were so good and well seasoned. Highly recommended. For our breakfast in the morning, we went to Sol 7 in person. The service at the restaurant was quite lacking. There were only three tables filled during the whole time we were dinning but everything took so long. None of the servers were available when we needed anything, they stayed in the back the whole time. Food itself also took a long time to come out. When we got the food, I ended up finding a hair in my potatoes which was unfortunate... For food I had: FRUIT SALAD: Pretty large bowl of seasonal fruit. It was nice! Just wish the coconut chips it came with were more flavorful. BREAKFAST SANDWICH: Very flavorful and tasty. There was something in the sandwich that leaked a lot of fluid though so the sandwich itself got a little soggy but otherwise was a solid option. My friend got an omelette and they said it was unfortunately very bland and not filled with ingredients. Skip the omelette. All in all, the food choices can be quite hit or miss and it would be nice if service could be better. At least if staff could be more easily available for customers that would be nice.

    Solid. They seemed overwhelmed/understaffed for Cowboy Carter weekend. Service was slow to order and slower to arrive. Coffee went cold several times. There was also variance in preparation day-to-day: my sister had the turkey club and said it wasn't the described roast turkey and I took a chance ordering it the next day and mine was much better. The ambiance is great, and the outdoor views are lovely!

    Here today! I joined my coworker for breakfast at Sol 7 while we wait to pick up our passengers. Nice, quiet ambiance vibe if you're there on business. My take on the menu is it's great if you're wanting to watch your calorie intake, grab a quick bite and charge it on the company credit card - which I did tehehe. If your on a date, it won't appear your a food fatty :) There's an option to enjoy outdoor seating, however it was too windy this morning :( Waitstaff was excellent and they all help make your dining experience pleasant by attending to every table not just their section. Here today. Yelp at'cha tomorrow!

    The food was really good. And sitting outside was great with a nice breeze could get a little too windy but we didn't mind it. Great views. The service seems short staffed, the delay was unreal for everything. I mean we had to flag people down for silverware, ordering, and the check. They must be short staffed...just can't think of anything else.

    Chardon Restaurant & Bat I'm told.

    What an experience! My daughter took me for a surprise lunch. Sol 7 is a rooftop experience at the Thompson Hotel. This is a hidden gem. We were seated promptly and ordered appetizers and drinks. They were very delicious! However...we had to ask for plate covers because the breeze was literally blowing my salad off my plate. There's a nice view of the pool and the cityscape. I ordered the steak and fries. It was cooked perfectly (medium), but had little seasoning. The sauce was lightly flavored as well, and my fries were barely warm. ‍ My daughter however ordered the salmon and arugula salad. It was amazing!!! The crab cake we ordered was also delicious!!! Lunch was very relaxing. Our bill was a little steep at $180, but a good lunch can be had at much less. Meals were reasonably priced. Our four drinks raised the bill for sure. Service was great. Upon leaving I stopped at the restroom. Maybe my drink was effecting me, but I couldn't locate an accessible stall. I didn't see any clear signage or could determine by door size. It's probably there, I just didn't see it. At any rate, this is definitely a spot I'd return to. PS: It cost to park.

I had…read moreheard good things for years, and I remember driving past it a couple times and not seeing it or any signage. Even this time the GPS took us to an entrance that had us going the wrong way down a one-way, but we eventually figured it out I will say that the parking isn't all that great, but we were able to find a spot. If the parking lot is full you should be able to find street parking nearby Kanpai Club is a sister location to Handos. They share a kitchen and you can walk through an inside door access either. You can find the same cocktails and bites from Handos on the Kanpai menu, but there's also additional drinks and bites The bar feels like a Japanese Izakaya. It's a narrow space resembling a Japanese outdoor bar. It's intimately lit and well decorated. We did have to wait for two spots to open up, but that didn't take too long The bartenders were friendly, professional, and efficient. We went on a Friday night (fairly late), and they had two dedicated bartenders The cocktails were fun and were beautifully crafted. Most were served in novelty glassware. You can order classic cocktails, but both Kanpai and Hando offer a variety of signature cocktails. Most having some sort of Japanese or Asian fusion. They have beer, wine, and extensive sake list, as well as green tea and other nonalcoholic options The cocktails were tasty. The only one I was iffy on was their Espresso martini. It was poured from a machine and I guess there were having issues with it. The presentation was phenomenal. There was a roasted marshmallow garnish. The drink itself was far too Smokey in flavor than I like, or at least in terms of my espresso martinis The Yuzu Kosho fries were incredible. The flavors really hit the spot. The Okinawa Potato salad was both questionable to looks and and to eat lol. This purple mound of potato's had an interesting taste, look, and consistency. It wasn't bad, just... interesting and new Some tips: If you can't find this spot from the street, look for Handos. It's part of this restaurant Ask the bartender about the happy hour menu. And most nights they're open until 12am, but on Fridays and Saturdays they are open until 2am If you order food online (technically from Hando's) you can get 10% off using code: HANDO10. This is part of their "Hando and Chill" special Cheers!!

Our server, Camille, took our order and then would disappear for 30+ minutes at a time. At one point, when we asked where she had been, she simply said she was "walking around." Her overall approach to serving us felt extremely nonchalant and inattentive. The atmosphere also made us feel as though the level of attention you receive depends on how much you're spending--particularly whether you're purchasing bottles. The servers seemed more focused on creating a bottle-service experience than providing attentive restaurant service. It gave the evening a very transactional, "pay for attention" feeling rather than genuine hospitality. What really sealed the experience for us happened after we had already paid our bill. A host approached our table and essentially said, "Can you leave now? We need to seat someone right now." There was no gracious transition, no "thank you for dining with us," and no polite explanation--just an abrupt request to leave. For a restaurant with such a beautiful ambiance and good food, the service and hospitality were incredibly disappointing. Guests should feel welcomed and valued from the moment they sit down until the moment they leave, regardless of whether they're ordering bottles.

It's located right at 19th St. and Shepherd near the light. There's a small angled parking lot that can be tight when people park along the fence. It looks like a cute tiny A-frame home with a few patio tables in the front. The inner area has about 6-7 high tables. It's nice and clean inside. The vibe feels similar to H-Town Brewing Co. but on a smaller scale. You can also sit at the bar. I didn't really like the high tables/chairs. They're not as comfortable. It was hot out, and there are mosquitos, so we sat inside. I ordered the salmon plate for steak night. The drinks here are ok, and since I don't really drink, I was looking for mocktail options. In this era, most places have mocktail options with brand alternatives like Ritual, Seedlip and Lyre's or at the least, something with juice, Topo Chico and simple syrup. The female bartender made me a NA margarita which was great. I liked that she didn't make it too sweet or too tart which happens with mocktails that don't have alternatives and are mostly juice or lemon. On the other hand, when I ordered a second, the guy bartender made it too sweet. I didn't like his version. For the alcoholic versions, they seem to have good cocktails, wine, beer and flights. They also have daily specials. Aside from the steak night, they don't serve food here. It wouldn't be my first choice of bars in this area.

    It's worth a stop for their $1 Tiny Tini's. I tried all three flavors; the Espresso martini, lemon…read moredrop, and Cosmo- and for just a buck, each 2 ounce sip packed with plenty of flavor. I also enjoyed a sweet frozen cocktail topped with a fresh mint leaf that was perfect for a warm afternoon. Fun drinks, great value, and a unique experience. They have a food truck outside that serves food, from what we were informed. Thank you Tre for inviting me here. They did not have any food menus for the truck at the time of my visit. Happy hour start at 2pm, and the $1 Tiny Tini's start at 6pm.
