    Pasta Bolognese
    Kimberly D.

    At first, we didn't realize this was in the lobby of a hotel... not like it mattered, but finding it took a minute. It was really nice on the inside and we opted to sit at the bar. Our drink order was taken immediately, unfortunately though we did have to ask if somebody was planning on taking our meal order. There were plenty of people working, I just think sometimes they just assume you're not there to have dinner. We both ended up ordering the pasta Bolognese and it was quite enjoyable. I'm not always a fan of garlic bread, but the bread that they put with this was so delicious and soft in the middle and crunchy on the outside. I would order this again just to have that. The drinks are very good as well. We both had the happy hour margarita to start and it was the perfect mix not too sweet or too sour. Overall, I would absolutely come back, the only real issue is parking, but it's not something they could help. Just something to keep in mind if you come at a busy time.

    This is what we were given, after asking, after waiting for over 35 minutes for our food.

    I'm not in the habit of shredding businesses, but sometimes it's warranted. We've been to SwitcHouse for two of our last three Mother'Days, and the service and food had been pretty good. Enough that my wife asked to come here again. Our reservation for six was at 1. We were seated at about 1:12, and a server came by within a few minutes to get drink orders. The waitress told us that it was busy, so meals may be slow coming out. Ok, it's Mother's Day and the place is full - I get it. After half an hour (not exaggerating), we had to pull her aside to take our lunch order. She had actually attended to a larger table seated after us first. After half an hour, of complete inattention, we flagged her down and asked where our food was. She said our ticket was still hanging. We asked for some bread or crackers or something, and she brought us a handful of crackers. She could not say how long our meal was going to take. During this time, we noticed meals actually being returned; we heard one server say the fish was cold. By 50 minutes of waiting, we called a nearby restaurant to ask their wait and they could take us immediately. At 2:50, we got up, I told a manger we were tired of waiting and were leaving. I offered to pay for the one iced tea and OJ, but she just apologized and said, "don't worry about it." I threw a fiver on the table and left. This is just bad management, pure and simple. They knew it was Mother's Day. They knew what their reservations looked like. They did not plan accordingly for the crowd. Obviously, their kitchen was overwhelmed, their servers had really large sections. No manager was circulating to apologize for the wait and offer complimentary desserts, discounted meals, free mimosas or anything. Across the street, we saw another party who was sitting at the table next to us, had also left. We had a little chuckle about the horrid service and then enjoyed some good Mediterranean food. I definitely won't return or recommend.

    Our next family food adventure take us to Switch house inside of Houston city place Marriott with a category 4.2 and more than 385 reviews this restaurant grill Inspired by the railway tradition and nature of the region, SwitcHouse Plates & Pours offers food with a focus on iron, oak, and smoke in a casually elegant paired with upscale rustic decor. Our waiter Amy very friendly, helpful and always coming over to see how everything was, for that reason I think the customer service was incredibly first class. But the important thing here was the food coming warn and delicious, the presentation of every plate is like the food talking to us eat me and enjoy. Thanks to the chef or the staff working in the Kicthen we really enjoy eating at the Switchuose tonight.

    Filet mignon
    Marion W.

    I stayed at the Marriott for a work trip (really nice hotel btw) and we had a customer dinner at switchouse, and it was a really nice dinner. First the place is pretty, they have great decoration for the holidays, nice touches everywhere. Second the food was actually really good, I had the filet mignon and it was delish. It comes with green beans, mash potato and a mushroom. I don't care for that kind of mushroom and the sides were a little small but enough for me. The Cesar salad was super delish and a huge plate. The French 75 was meh.. and I took a star off because the prices are pretty high. $52 for the filet hurt. If it wasn't for work paying, I wouldn't spend that. Overall a great dinner, in a beautiful ambiance, and a really nice attentive waitress.

    a burger and french fries on a plate
    Jamie M.

    It's an absolute treasure when there is an eatery in your home away from home stay that serves up some good bites. Popped in here on my last night at the CityPlace Marriott and came with a hankering for a burger. Boy did they deliver. I sadly have no idea the name of my burger as it was a newer menu or maybe seasonal so I cannot locate it on their website. It was a steak burger cooked medium rare paired with fresh tomato, arugula, aioli, and a black seasame bun, with a side of sweet potato fries. Also had a taste of the Dirty fries appetizer, a definite recommend if you're looking for something to go along with a couple brews. The brisket and queso while incredibly messy make this a great pairing to throw a few back to. Service was stellar and personable. The ambience is great for a girls night out or in if your guests of the hotel.

    I was a little disappointed with switch house. The food + drinks were just ok and pretty expensive.I went on a Tuesday after work and it was completely empty. We got the dirty fries and conductors queso. Both apps were pretty good but they didn't blow me away. I preferred the dirty fries personally. I also got a mezcalita and it was pretty good & strong. The service was really good though. Shoutout to our waiter.

    Salmon and Brussel Sprouts
    Korynne B.

    Late night dinner meal. Trying to cut out the carbs so this was my protein friendly dinner. Salmon had great flavor but I asked for well done so I had to send it back. The Brussels never disappoint, but a lot for one person. The service is always great and the food remains consistent.

    Smokehouse Sample Platter
    Clay G.

    We got in to the Houston area pretty late and were looking for a place to eat near our hotel. Conveniently, SwitcHouse was inside of our hotel. As far as hotel bar/restaurants go, this is a pretty decent one. I decided to just get the smokehouse sample platter as a meal and was surprised at how much food I actually got. Unfortunately, a lot of it was pretty bland. I would've liked more flavor elements outside of the neutrals, but this is obviously not designed to be all eaten by one person. Outside of this, the service could've been better, as our waitress disappeared for extended periods when we could've used another beer.

    This is the ham and cheese croissant!
    Addy W.

    The location is a great new spot! Easy to get to in front door parking. The Gruyère & ham croissant sandwich was delicious. The best part was the flavor of the Dijon mustard. The atmosphere is nice counter service so it was pretty quick only 15 min wait for food. Couldn't decide, so I got a side of both the tomato bisque and French onion soups! Each team had a good flavor while the French onion wasn't the traditional cheesy soup. I would probably pick that one over the tomato basil next time. Service was friendly and overall this is a quick place to get in and out if you don't have a lot of time and you want a nice meal! I was impressed and I will be back.

    Bolonese Pasta
    Don R.

    Came here with some friends over the weekend who were from out of town and recommended this spot. My friend grabbed a Queso dip for an appetizer. I believe it had chopped brisket & some grilled veggies in it. It was just ok, nothing special. Additionally, they only brought a handful of chips. Definitely wasn't enough chips to accommodate the dip. I grabbed the bolognese pasta for my meal. First bite, I thought it was pretty good. As I continued eating, it just tasted average. Flavors were good but nothing spectacular. Service could've been better. Our waitress couldn't really understand us, language barrier. I asked to sample one of the beers on draft, she came back with a whole glass; fortunately it was good. On top of that, they were out of a lot of stuff they had listed on their menu. Ok place but I don't have to come back.

    Buttermilk pancake with pecans
    Geanene T.

    My cousin and I were searching for a brunch spot nearby. This place has a good rating. It is inside of the Marriott in a cute little shopping district with other food venues. We were seated immediately by the window. Chris was our waiter and he was great. The ambiance was nice and the service was super fast. We had mimosas with pineapple juice. I will definitely visit again when I am in town.

    Excellent Old Fashion
    James W.

    Great bar. Service can be slow. I was only here getting Old Fashions, three times for three drinks !! Cheers !! The bar and dining area were clean, and the staff was very professional. Several folks were eating but I never saw a menu so I can't tell you what they offer. Be warned, Old Fashions are $20 !!! Holy Crap !!!

Shortly a server came by and when I told her I was waiting for someone, she was so sweet and offered to get me something to drink while I waited. Within about five minutes, two or three other team members also stopped by to check on me, which I thought was great. It really showed that they are attentive to their guests. The indoor seating area has a cool, relaxed vibe, and I sat in a comfortable booth. I also loved the wall decorated with hat. They specialize in a variety of bruschetta boards, which is what I was most excited to try. Some of the bruschetta options were just okay on their own, and I think a little balsamic reduction or a drizzle of olive oil would have added more flavor. My recommendations are the Sweet & Spicy Pepper Jam with Goat Cheese and the Burrata Bruschetta with arugula and tomatoes. Soooo good! The wines were amazing, and I loved that I was able to sample a few before deciding what to order. Overall, I think Postino is a great spot for a girls' night, catching up with friends, or just enjoying a chill evening out. I would definitely come back!

The dining room is chic and feels very upscale but comfortable with a large open fire kitchen that was really fun to watch while dining. They were very on top of service with both our dining captain and waiter checking on us throughout the evening. For appetizers we ordered the deviled crabs, tuna tostada and wood roasted carrots. All were great but I especially loved the carrots which were cooked and seasoned perfectly. For my main course I had the chicken and dumplings, husband got the NY strip, our friends shared the whole fish and we had the cabbage and crab rice as sides. Everyone was very happy with both their main courses and the side dishes. We were too stuffed to order dessert but they sent out a s'mores inspired sunday for my birthday which was both thoughtful and sublime. Overall we were very impressed with our meal. Food was delicious but veeeery indulgent. We will be back.

I know. "Fine dining" and burgers? But that's what I wanted. I searched the web and found the Chefs Table in Vintage Park, and it wasn't too far from us here in The Woodlands, so we decided to make reservations and head there. From the moment we entered, we were treated like special guests. The ambiance is rich, but not overdone or stuffy. Simply classic and relaxing. Our booth felt private and unhindered by conversations of nearby diners or wait staff bustling past. Our cocktails were perfect. The calimari we ordered as an appetizer was probably the most tender and delicious either of us have ever had. And when our burgers arrived, I was so happy. It was exactly what I had set my mind on when selecting my birthday dinner experience. The blend of brisket and chuck was absolutely delicious, set atop a perfectly buttered toasted bun, with some crispy onion straws on top. And the fries... oh my! I rarely if ever eat fried food - so clearly this was my big day to completely go off my standard fare, but those fries had the perfect crunch and flavor. Apparently, when my husband made our resv, he told them it was my birthday, so our server brought out a delightful complimentary spiced cake dessert after we were finished eating - for us to share. It was the perfect finish to an already amazing meal. Thank you to the entire staff at The Chefs Table yesterday, for helping to create a memorable and delicious birthday feast for my husband and me. We will definitely be back to try some other delights because the menu is packed full of amazing looking dishes.

We were seated in a booth that felt quite cramped for a business meeting. Next time, we'd likely request a more open, well-lit table. We ordered several dishes, but the Chilean sea bass was disappointing. It was dry, lacked the buttery texture it's known for, and was quite bland. We also requested a side of hot sauce, but that request was overlooked. To end the meal, we planned to order coffee and toffee instead of dessert. After waiting nearly 30 minutes, we were told the coffee machine had broken. Unfortunately, by then the server seemed eager to wrap things up and didn't really give us the opportunity to consider any other after-meal options. Overall, the restaurant has a nice atmosphere and we can see why it's popular, but the food execution and service fell short of our expectations, especially for a business lunch. We hope these issues were just an off day, as we'd like to give it another chance.
