The SwitcHouse is a great place. The food was great, the beer was cold. The service and ambiance was great. The bartender Amy was amazing. She respectful, polite, and made you feel at home. read more

Decided on a whim (read desperately looked for a place with open Valentine's Day reservations) to try them out. As it's a hotel restaurant for the Marriott, parking in the evenings can be somewhat scarce or distant, but was manageable. If walking in from street parking, the first entrance door you run across isn't the hostess station. You'll need to walk over to where the hotel joins the restaurant to be greeted. They easily found our reservation and we were promptly seated. Next comes the only downside of the evening...the maître d' has warned us it'd be a few minutes until a server came by. He wasn't kidding, it was a full 15-20 minutes later. This is the sole reason for 4 of 5 stars. As we'd had a chance to look at both the "special" Valentine's Day menu (which would set you back $75/pp) as well as the normal menu, our server took both our drink order and our food order simultaneously. My wife opted for the Smoked Beef Tenderloin and I chose the Black Angus Strip Steak. I was able to easily swap out items on mine (from loaded potatoes and asparagus to a house salad and sweet potato fries) without a twitch from the server. It should be noted that the "loaded potatoes" are diced, roasted potatoes with cheese and bacon loaded on top. The asparagus stalks were simply ENORMOUS. My salad was crisp and fresh with a healthy amount of dressing server separately. The sweet potato fries were well above average. The entrees - Smoked Beef Tenderloin ($29)- It comes pre-sliced (though you'll likely cut those slices up) in a gravy/glaze on top. It was near fork-tender, with a smoky flavor that reminded me of a top-tier brisket. It was heavenly. Black Angus Strip Steak ($28)- like the Tenderloin, it was served on a cast-iron plate, but with only the lightest chimichurri/butter glaze. Like the Tenderloin, it was cooked to medium specification. A tad crispy from the sear, it was nonetheless excellent. Of note: ambiance was decent, booths are romantic, if a bit springy. The Steak knives are 10 1/2" tomahawk knives that look like something you'd hunt with in the outback! We definitely enjoyed it and will return soon! read more

The service was amazing. But I got the angus sliders and they seemed to be premade frozen meat. Zero taste. Not impressed at all.

First time here and thought it is a great restaurant. Plenty of parking in the front or there is a garage nearby. It's connected to the Marriott hotel but may not be completely associated so you may not get points eating here but the food makes up for that discrepancy. The service was great and plenty of beers on tap or bottle. I had the steak and it was cooked perfectly. The salmon was perfect and probably better than the steak. We also tried the avocado fries and they were really tasty. It's down the road from the Woodlands mall so if you don't feel like battling the crowds come eat here, you won't be disappointed!! read more

It was okay! I expected more. We had brisket tacos and the sampler. The food was cold and our server made many mistakes. I will give this restaurant another try. Oh and they have a happy hour that's pretty good read more

Extremely slow service. Almost 12 minutes before our drink order was taken.. food was ok but not worth the price

The food and drinks at happy hour were awesome. Service was quick and well delivered. Ribs, dirty fries and gumbo were to notch. Outside seating is covered and picturesque. Definitely a keeper. read more

The atmosphere was nice, the food was good. The brisket that was on the burger was tender and the presentation was elegant. It's a nice place if you don't want to be too fancy but not too cheap. read more

I am a Marriot Ambassador member, so I come here often. Amy has continued to exceed my expectations when it comes to service and attitude. Amy raises the bar for all of her peers. She is a natural! read more

Between my husband and I, we are giving 4.5 for this place. I love my Engineer breakfast! Bacon was super crispy as requested. Sourdough toasts were excellent. My husband ordered Migas (He's a Migas lover) and his comment was that it was ok. It had all the right ingredients but flavor didn't quite come together right and the tortilla in the migas was sulky. The wait time for food was not bad given that there was only 1 waiter and he was pretty attentive (we went on Sat morning around 9am). read more

The food is amazing and the staff is friendly and efficient. Since I am staying in the Marriott it is also very convenient. Wide selection of menu items.Beef Tips were cooked to perfection. read more

I came here because I saw pictures online and I thought it would be a nice place to catch up with a friend over dinner. I think the atmosphere is great-let me warn you-it's at a Marriott which I wasn't expecting. I think this place is good for drinks but not dinner. I had beef tips with mashed potatoes. I was really surprised that the server didn't asked how I wanted it cooked-when I got my dish, it was a little bit more rare than what I expected. Flavor was okay. Definitely wasn't worth the money. Maybe I'll try this again in the future for happy hour drinks and appetizers. read more

Came here due to the pictures online, however arrived to no host , was seated after 15 mins, then waited for an ~1 hour in a corner table. While there we were completely ignored by wait staff as others at-least were offered something to drink. Would not recommend a stop here, very unprofessional. read more

I recently stayed at Marriott and wanted a quick sit-down meal, so I decided on the Switch House. I was seated quickly, and my server even brought me water before I could sit down. Since it was my first time, I was indecisive about what to get, so my server showed me options and helped me pick a meal. The server's name was Kaitlyn, and she was so sweet, patient, and respectful toward me. She made me feel at home, and I wish more servers like her were out there! I will for sure come back and visit again! read more

I ate here on Thanksgiving. About 6pm. Sat at the bar. Very disappointing! Here are the issues: 1. Thanksgiving buffet - everything was cold. Turkey slightly edible. Ham was the worst I've ever eaten. Stale rolls. Then tried the pizza which was terrible. 2. There were 2 TV's on the same news channel. I asked for the football game but was told no. No reason. Meanwhile the game was on in the main hotel area. 3. I received the check and was shocked to find 18% gratuity was added. I have never had that happen before for 1 person. I normally do not analyze my check, but I was curious how much the buffet cost. I was about to add 20% when I noticed the 18% had already been added. So, note to the bartender - inform the customer that you have already added the gratuity. So, suffice to say Switchhouse will never see me back. Plus I work nearby and will advise others to avoid this place. read more

I'm a burger fan, so obviously I tried their best one, the Switchouse Burger at $18 and it looked good to be sure. It tasted like a frozen burger that was then cooked very well done. I only took two bites and couldn't eat the rest. I filled up on fries and their fried avocado strips which were both pretty good. Also, we went at lunch time and wanted to order a drink but the bartender wasn't due to arrive until 4:00 p.m. and so they couldn't serve us. We even called ahead and asked if they were open and had a bar. Won't be returning any time soon. The server was nice enough but not very attentive and when she asked how everything was and I expressed that I wouldn't be finishing it, she didn't really know how to respond and just walked away in an awkward manner. read more

Such a beautiful location/interior ! We went for breakfast which was great and had some mimosas. Service was great and quick. Wish we waited a little longer to try the lunch menu. Will definitely be returning read more

Yikes! Why is Yelp and google reviews so much different? I would say avoid this place when there are so many better options, like free hotel breakfast! Lol ordered food took a while I guess they had to wait for it to get cold! Which is what it was cold food! read more

Chef Darren prepared an amazing meal for us. The crab cakes and Mac and cheese were amazing. Salmon and beef tenderloin cooked to perfection. Will definitely be returning. read more

Major disappointment. The hotel is awesome, and the surroundings are awesome. This place HAS to be good but sadly, the breakfast was awful. Ordered pancakes, bacon and eggs. Worst pancakes my son and I have ever had. Why am I leaving a bad review? Because it was 4 bucks for orange juice and 5 for coffee. And 13 for awful pancakes. They better figure this situation out fast or it'll be a huge drag on this hotel. I want a refund. read more

My husband and I stayed at the hotel for the weekend that this restaurant is in. We ordered the avocado fries and brisket tacos to share in our room. The food was shockingly bland. It was if they used zero salt. I will definitely be staying at the hotel again but, will not be eating here. read more

Came here on business staying at the Marriott. The Switchback is next-door to have dinner. The drinks and food very good. Jeff the bartender took care of me. Tulena and Francis were great food was hot and fresh tried the switchback burger on garlic bread. Like to thank Carlos an Marco as well. Will be back again read more

The SwitchHouse bar staff at Marriott CityPlace is truly terrific. Amy, Jeff and Tulena were all fabulous hosts and excellent bartenders, conducting easy conversation, attending to a busy bar and all while making everyone feel welcome and cared for. The drinks were certainly tasty and generous, but the kindness and friendly atmosphere made my four day stay in Spring, TX rank well above average! read more

We visited today for Easter. We had a reservation but arrived to "no server" on staff. The manager would not even take our drink order while waiting for a waiter to arrive. The afternoon bartender was assigned to be our waiter who responded to questions about the menu, incorrectly, because he had no knowledge of how the menu options were prepared. There was no follow-up to questions he admitted he didn't have an answer for. Food was served cold, over cooked and not as requested. This visit was an overall fiasco. I can't say it I will ever return. read more

I had the Turkey sandwich with a side salad. Very delicious. My sister has the beef tips and gravy again, very delicious. It feels a little upscale. Very nice. Would recommend read more

It's bad if I'm giving a low rating to a business! I felt that we were not welcomed to this restaurant. We stood at the entrance, saw the server continue to walk by. FYI, it was not a busy evening. I patiently waited to be greeted. I made a reservation beforehand, too. After not being greeted, I advised my husband that we will seat ourselves. I picked a table & waited,patiently. A server finally greeted us & took our drink order. This location is at the same level of Pappasitos except with mediocre service. I remained polite but that was some bullshit, for your customers to not be acknowledged. With all that being said. The Ranch Water & Mezcalita are smooth. Red snapper tacos were nice. read more

Amazing service and delicious food! We would definitely eat here again. Our waiter was so great! We didn't get his name but he was on shift the night of 6/18/22. If he sees this, the "boss man" and his pregnant wife really loved your recommendation on the cheesecake read more

Wanted the abstract and they did not have any. Seems a high end restaurant like this would get their wine inventory straight. Disappointed.

This review is coming from someone who stayed at the connected hotel for nearly a week and was here 1-2x/day. Just make the effort to cool down elsewhere. My guess is that this place is only hyped because the hotel is less than a year old. For a place that attempts to be somewhat upscale in their interior design, their drinking list falls terribly below the mark. Their spin on the sidecar had so much sugary residue, hardly spirit forward, I could barely keep it down. It's just a bad cocktail list, who came up with those drinks? As for their wine list, there is hardly diversity, think I noticed some top producers from 7-11. Don't get me started on the overpriced food. Minus the skillet Mac & cheese, they killed that one. Otherwise tho? Take my word for it, don't be fooled by the reviews and the nice lighting in the pictures. The food is really greasy. The grilled cheese doesn't have the pull going... was kinda gritty. Toast to it was nice tho. The dirty fries are for schmucks. Gets cold quick despite the skillet and all broken up and soggy. Pork belly was overcooked, too much char, too bad I didn't choke on it or I coulda sued. My $40 some steak was overcooked for a medium, dry despite the overly sweet marinade slabbered all over it. The hummus was bland/under seasoned. Pita bread that came with was nice and soft tho, and can't screw up raw carrots lol. Breaded avocado really shouldn't be a thing, gets all soft and broken up and doesn't maintain consistency. Who came up with that idea anyway? Avocados should stay room temp/cool, no? The queso is useless once it cools within 10 min, all thick and chalked up. Way too high in sodium even for queso. What are they hiding in there? Unreasonable range in texture. Just get the bottled stuff at your local grocery store. Again, best item on their menu is their skillet Mac & cheese. Lastly, as someone who's been in the industry for more than 15 years, it's abundantly clear there are major issues with management. Lack of experience is written all over the food & beverage program. They could use a clean up...already. What horrible failure at basic nonsense and overpriced disgusting food. read more

Excellent service and delicious food. Our waiter, Brandon, was extremely accommodating and helpful!

If i could give zero stars I would. The food and reviews looked amazing so thought I would give it a try. Went during lunch and asked to sit on the patio to listen to the live music as someone was performing in the courtyard. We were sat outside and forgotten about. I went inside twice to ask if someone would come take our order and each time i was told that someone was coming. We waited 35 minutes before we decided to leave because we were completely ignored, even though others were being serviced outside. We were completely discriminated against. It was awful. I complained to the manager, who seemed oblivious, and he didnt apologize or anything. Sad, because we were excited to try the menu and drinks. We will not be going back and have already told our friends who are foodies as well. Can't believe we were treated this way. read more

Tried this place because we were looking for something different, so happy we did! Everything was fantastic. The breakfast plates were huge portions, kids loved the French toast. Check this place out and you will not be disappointed. read more

What a great find. Hidden inside Marriot City Centre is this wonderful American fare restaurant. The decor is beautiful and the restaurant is set inside the hotel's bar. Craft cocktails were on point, their version of a Mule is not to be missed, fruity and with just the right amount of ginger beer. We had the Shishito peppers as an appetizer and I would recommend you do the same. Flaked with salt and charred beautifully, the accompanying dipping sauce was just the right touch. We both had steaks, mine the wagyu like ribeye, the other the 8 oz sirloin. Both were great, but wagyu like is not wagyu and I would not repeat. The sirloin was tender and delicious enhanced by house-made steak sauce and nearly half the price. Desserts, white chocolate bread pudding and the surprising chipotle glazed brownie were both amazing. Will certainly visit again to try more of their treats. The chef has a deft hand when combining flavors. The one downer is the restaurant is inside the bar. Our dinner was marred by a large crowd of conventioneers who were having a grand and loud time at the bar. Not the best setting for quiet conversation but we were so busy enjoying our food the conversation would likely have been minimal anyway. read more

Absolutely terrible customer service with crummy food. Came here Easter Day for late lunch. Original reservation was for 2 but then we were called that it had to be moved to 4 as they were "too busy". Well, when we arrived at 4 there was literally no one there and yet the host still asked if we had reservations - does it matter? But I digress. Our waiter was awkward and disinterested, and despite being the only people there we waited over 30 minutes for our appetizers and salads which came out with some but not all of the meals. It was at this time, 30 minutes after we ordered, that our waiter told us they were out of what we ordered. So 2 out of the 4 of us got their meal after waiting half an hour and the other 2 were simply offered to choose something else, no real apology for waiting to tell us. The tortilla soup was bland, the Caesar salad came from a grocery store pre made pack, and the stuffed snapper was also super bland. With terrible service and bland food we will never be back. read more

My first time here and the service and hospitality is top notch. Both the bartender, Jeff and the supervisor, Tulena were very hospitable. Would like for Tulena to come work for me. Can't wait to visit again! read more

Incredible restaurant. I've been here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and have always walked away fully satisfied. The dishes are creative and delicious, the staff is extremely friendly and cares about the experience, and the ambience of the place is perfection. If you're near the Houston/Woodlands area, this place is worth going to for sure! It's an amazing gem hidden inside a nice hotel! read more
