    Toro Toro Chilaquiles
    Huong N.

    My friend and I were staying at the Four Seasons and decided to have breakfast at Toro Toro. There isn't a dress code in the morning or at lunch time, but there is a strict dress code for dinner. It was a little more busy than usual so the service was pretty slow but our waiter was very nice and was absolutely doing his best. We did have a Bloody Mary for drinks- pretty standard and nothing too special. For food, I had the chilaquiles with shredded chicken. It was odd, I will say because the chicken wasn't really shredded and for an additional $8, it certainly was a lot less than expected. My friend had the eggs Benedict and salmon and said it was a little different than what he was expecting, but still good. I think the menu may be slightly overpriced, but you pay for the ambiance I guess.

    We stopped into Toro Toro inside the Four Seasons Houston and had such a great experience. The servers were super friendly and took the time to walk us through the menu, which made deciding much easier. We went with the summer special, which was three courses for $55. and it was definitely worth it. I started things off with the Ube Be cocktail. It was just the right balance of sweetness with that mellow ube finish, and the toasted coconut flake garnish added a nice little texture. For starters, we tried the Bison Tiradito and the Amarillo Ceviche. The bison was like beef tartare with really interesting textures from the pickled shimeji and greens, plus a drizzle of truffle oil that gave it extra depth. It also had just a touch of spice. The ceviche, mostly ahi tuna, was fresh and delicious--served with plantain and tortilla chips. The plantain chips were definitely the winner for me. The tortilla chips could've been a bit fresher. For mains, the chicken was cooked perfectly. Juicy, with a nice charred skin and plenty of flavor from the sauces and greens on top. The steak was also solid, and the sauces really made the dish since it didn't come with sides. The sauce with the sesame seeds was mellow, while the chimichurri packed more of a punch. Dessert was the last round. The chocolate semifreddo tart with vanilla ice cream was rich and tasty, though a few of the salted pecans were very salty. Still, most bites were excellent. The churros, though, were my favorite. Even though they aren't a show stopper. They were fresh, hot, had the perfect crisp on the outside, and served with a brandy dulce de leche sauce that was incredible. Overall, I left really impressed with both the food and the service. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when in Houston.

    Excellent food! My aunt used to live at the Four Seasons and everyone was so friendly and attentive. Definitely recommend the La Bomba dessert. Although everything was fantastic, the salmon was my favorite. Honorable mention for the Duck Confit Tacos - my aunt loved them. Ate here both nights while in town and will be back.

    Tres leches pancakes

    My friends booked a table for us to have mu birthday brunch. It did not know what to expect. I had not been to the Four Seasons in years since my cousin took me for brunch. She has since passed away from breast cancer, so returning was special for me. Getting there was no issue. We had reservations for Sunday October 19 at 1pm. Pulled in and immediately greeted by valet. Now the restaurant is upstairs on the second or third floor. Finding the elevators was challenge coming in so took the stairs. You think you are there after one flight. Nope. One more my friend. Now welcome to Toro Toro. Now after you catch your breath you can view the restaurant. It's open out onto the floor. It has beautiful art and the interior decorating is superior. We sat at a round table. The chairs were okay. Let's talk about the experience. Our waiter was attentive and very friendly. Was not busy at all, so we got to enjoy a really intimate experience. We started off with some drinks. I had go to for the pain killer. I had not had one since I used to eat at Cheddars. I have never stepped a foot back into that place, so being able to have one that is elevated was great. We also did a flight of mimosas. We had fresh orange, mango, passion fruit, pineapple and grapefruit juices. They were divine. For brunch I went with the steak and fries. Added a side of soft scrambled eggs. We also got an order of the tres leches pancakes to share. I ordered my steak medium and it came almost well done. The fries were excellent. The eggs were perfect. The real star of the experience was the tres leches pancakes. OMG. Decadent and filling. I would go back for those again. After all the champagne had to pop into the restroom. The restrooms are beautifully put together. The star here was the soap. I legit went back to the table and raved about it. All my friends said the same thing. It was so good we asked the front desk who makes the soap. They sent my friend to the spa to inquire. We found out it is Diptyque softening and comforting wash for the hands. I went home and immediately ordered it. It came in today and my hands smell like heaven as I type this review. Worth every penny. Overall, the brunch experience was superb. Don't forget to have your valet validated by the restaurant. Check them out. It was a great time.

    Crab Toast
    Tamieka B.

    We've been meaning to try this place since Quattro closed after the Pandemic. I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised. We arrived and valeted, make sure to get your ticket stamped for a discount. ($7.58) The restaurant is on the 3rd floor, you can take the stairs or the elevator to your right when you walk in. When we got upstairs there were only 2 other patrons, so I didn't have high hopes. App: Crab Toast (Best Bite) Redfish Ceviche (Spicy) Shrimp Aguachile We ordered from the brunch menu and everything was actually tasty. Crab toast has guacamole with tons of fresh crab and pickled veggies. Redfish and Shrimp are served with Plantains and tortilla chips. The plantains were sliced thin and really crispy, but the tortilla chips were thicker and stale. All in all, it was a good meal.

    Salmon with chili jam
    Sofia K.

    Located in the Four Seasons hotel in downtown so parking may be an issue. We walked from our office building. Restaurant is tastefully decorated. Modern, sophisticated taking advantage of the floor to ceiling windows. Our server was great and very attentive. The menu had a variety of options but since this is a steakhouse I went with the steak frites which was a ribeye perfectly cooked and seasoned. Others ordered the salmon with chili jam which was also delectable.

    My husband said it was the best meat he's ever had in his life but to me it was a 7/10 maybe be got the fattier softer side but def try it out we're from LA and wanted to try most meats available in Texan

    Stylish and tasty. Service and ambiance: This restaurant is part of the hotel but walk ins are welcome. The restaurant is nicely decorated and has a good vibe. The hostess was very nice and accommodated our request without any problems. Our server was very knowledgeable and helpful as well. Food and drinks: The menu is designed differently for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We arrived during brunch time. I highly recommend hanger steak with sunny side eggs. I ordered medium rare and it was perfectly cooked. The meat paired well with eggs and side of rice. Our citrus salad was delicious. Tangy and sweet. All dishes were presented very well on the plates. Selection of cocktails was excellent. Pricing: $$ and worth every bit of the food quality.

    Came here to have dinner with colleagues. The restaurant is beautiful and has a very open concept. Our server was very attentive and assisted us with all our needs. We ordered a few appetizers which were all good and also several entrees which were not bad. The star of the show were the desserts. If you're ever downtown it's worth stopping by for a drink and dessert.

    My first time at this fancy steakhouse located in the Four Seasons Hotel. Came with a group, for my friends bday. Birthday girl made an early resy. We had the dining room, essentially to ourseleves. At first, they placed our party of 6 near their fireplace. And while it was asethetically pleasing, we were very hot. So the staff were kind enough to seat us elsewhere, and it was much cooler. The place is modernly decorated with a beautiful bar outside the dining area. Food - I wanted to keep it light. So I ordered the Octupus Antichupo. It was pretty tasty. Grilled octopus with what I can describe as a some kind mash potato cup underneath. Everyone else seemed satisfied with their meal as well. Service - was great. I believe our server was Manuel, a cutie. But my receipt says Rakshman? So I'm not sure.

    The breakfast portions are large and taste delicious. I had the h-town sunrise breakfast with fresh squeezes OJ. The service was friendly and on point. The booth with upholstered sofa seating was super comfy. I certainly recommend trying ToroToro for breakfast.

    I really like the bar and restaurant concepts at The Four Seasons Houston. I've eaten at Toro Toro twice over the past year and both visits were good. 1st visit: HRW 2023 We had dinner on a Tuesday evening. We didn't realize that they have live music on Tuesday nights. The duo that performed were great, however the volume was extremely loud! We had a hard time hearing each other even though we were seated towards the back of the restaurant away from the band. I had the Tamarindo cocktail and I enjoyed it. I started with the Wedge Salad for my first course. It's pretty simple, but tasty. I really enjoyed the bacon on the salad. I subbed the poblano blue cheese dressing with ranch dressing. For my entree, I had the Salmon. It was really good and I enjoyed the bok choy that accompanied it. For dessert, I ordered the Churros. These were excellent! My dining companions and I tried each other's dishes and we all enjoyed everything we had. I can't recall our server's name, but she was really nice and did a great job. 2nd Visit: July 2024 I came with a group for my friend's birthday dinner. We were seated in a room off the main dining area. It was more quiet which was nice. We were initially near the fireplace, but it got hot very quickly so we were moved to a different table. The fireplace provided a nice ambiance, but we didn't need the additional heat! I started with a cocktail called Loquito Por Ti. It tasted like a spicy berry margarita. It was a pretty drink because of the butterfly pea flower and I wish I would have taken a photo if it. For my entree, I had the Zarandeado Red Snapper. It was so good! The grilled avocado with corn and the chayote salad were tasty too, however the chayote was salty. The flavors overall complimented each other well. My main criticism of this dish is the portion of the red snapper. It was soooo small (I would estimate about 4-5 oz.). It wasn't worth the price. I was hungry an hour later and ended up going back to Bayou and Bottle for a snack after having a drink at Bandista. Manuel was our server and he was excellent! All of the staff that waited on us were great! I like Toro Toro, but I would probably only come back for a special occasion or for HRW.

Our waitress explained that the menu is a fusion of Dominican and Japanese cuisine. Since I have never visited either the Dominican Republic or Japan, I cannot speak to its authenticity. What I can say with confidence is that they have mastered flavor. The team at Mamajuana Café clearly pays attention to every detail--from timing and presentation to the thoughtful combination of ingredients and spices. Every dish felt carefully crafted and intentionally prepared. I only wish I lived closer so I could return more often and explore more of the menu. We ordered the burger and the filet mignon, and I highly recommend both. In fact, the burger was excellent. My only regret is ordering something familiar instead of taking the opportunity to try one of their more unique creations.

It was actually her first time having ceviche with fish, and I think it was a pretty good introduction. We also got a very generous portion, which I always appreciate when trying something new that I end to enjoying.

Within 3-5 minutes of my arrival, the valet driver, Gustavo, was involved in an accident in my BMW that caused substantial damage. Valet staff and restaurant management knew there had been an accident, yet no one came to notify me. I sat in the restaurant for more than 90 minutes completely unaware that my vehicle had been damaged. I found out only when I was leaving, when Gustavo approached me with, "Don't get an attitude, I had an accident in your car." That was his opening statement. Not an apology. Not "Are you okay?" Not "We need to speak with you." He damaged my property and somehow I was the one being warned about my attitude. He then became combative, raised his voice at me, and presented himself as though he were management. The level of audacity was almost impressive. Restaurant management did not handle it much better. Johnathan and Jose both acknowledged that I am a regular and recognized my face, yet management showed very little urgency, offered no meaningful acknowledgment of what had happened, and did not even offer to comp my meal. No, a complimentary dinner would not fix a BMW. It would, however, have demonstrated basic hospitality after allowing a regular customer to unknowingly eat dinner for 90 minutes while his vehicle sat outside damaged. The communication afterward with Cedars Valet was even more concerning. Mohammed, Cedars Valet President acknowledged in writing, "we admit what we did" and initially stated, "Rest assure we will cover our damage." Yet the conversation quickly shifted to Cedars attempting to decide, before BMW has even completed their inspection, which portions of the damage they would and would not accept responsibility for. Interesting approach considering Cedars had possession of my vehicle when the accident occurred. Accidents can happen. What does not have to happen is failing to notify the customer, allowing them to sit inside for an hour and a half, greeting them with hostility when they finally discover it, and then immediately trying to minimize the damage afterward. If you valet at Gloria's, understand the risk is apparently not limited to whether your vehicle gets damaged. Pay very close attention to how you may be treated once it does. As someone who regularly patronized this restaurant, I expected significantly better. The accident was bad enough. The lack of transparency, professionalism, accountability, and basic customer care afterward is what made the experience truly unacceptable.

    We don't have dessert. That's not a preference so much as a rule, the kind that hardens quietly…read moreover years of adequate meals. Last night we ordered two. Xochi is not a restaurant you eat at. It's one you sit inside of. I had the Costillas de Borrego -- Australian lamb chops in a tamarind mole, with potatoes. The mole is the thing. It's dark and sour and sweet all at once, layered deeply enough that it keeps revealing itself, and yet it never once bullies the lamb it's sitting on. Nothing here is loud for the sake of being loud. Every element seems to know exactly what it's doing and why it showed up. My wife had the Barbacoa de Res de Zaachila -- grilled beef in a guajillo and costeño adobo, hoja santa, potato and carrots, masa dumplings. The kind of dish that makes you go quiet for a minute. I have never been genuinely upset that a plate was empty. I was upset. Not because I was still hungry, but because the thing I was in the middle of experiencing had ended, and there was no way back to the first bite. Then, the two we broke the rule for. The Helado de Elote. Corn custard ice cream, blue corn atole, a corn cookie, blue corn whiskey-infused ice cream. Corn like I have never experienced corn. Corn like I did not know corn was capable of being. It reads on the menu like a novelty and arrives like a thesis. And the hot chocolate, the spiked version -- a small pitcher of Oaxacan chocolate foamed at the table, mezcal and whipped cream. In The Santa Clause, there's an elf who's spent a thousand years perfecting her hot cocoa recipe. I'm now fairly certain this is it, and that she has been holding out on us. Holding all of it together was Juan, who is the reason the evening became what it did. He read us immediately, guided us without ever steering us, and made recommendations we'll be thinking about for a long time. We laughed with him. We traded stories. By the end it didn't feel like service. It felt like someone had let us into something. Houston has a lot of restaurants. This is a place. Go, and put yourself in Juan's hands.

There's also a cute covered outside area which I'm sure I'll experience post summer time. They have a few yummy looking food options at a great price point - including tamales and baked pastries. I picked the chicken tamale as a light lunch - I got the most delicious chicken tamale I've had thus far, served with kettle crinkle chips and a tamale sauce to dip. There are many coffee/non coffee options. I opted for the iced horchata latte - agree with prior reviewers that this is delish. It is not too sweet and a great blend of vanilla and cinnamon that masks the espresso. The atmosphere here is cozy but focused, with a mixture of people working/studying and hanging out. 10/10 will be back.

    Campesino is one of my favorite cafes to study at in Houston! There is ample seating, it is…read moreoftentimes very quiet (though if you do want to chat that is no problem at all) and the wifi is good. It is in a home-like structure with quirky furniture, but it makes me feel very much at home. The workers are also super nice and accommodating. The coffee is very reasonably priced and delicious. I always get their Horchata Latte---it is a perfect level of sweetness and the cinnamon complements the espresso perfectly (and it's only $5.50)! They have a variety of other drinks and pastries too, that I haven't been able to try. I highly recommend coming to study/catch up with a friend. There's a lot of coffee shops in the Montrose area but this has been one of my favorite.

    Incredible food at this hidden gem! It looks like someone's house - you'd never know if it was…read morethere. But the food is delicious, I clean my plate every time! The chicken moran is my favorite: creamy, mushroomy, oniony. Perfect with the rice. The shrimp soup is the best I've ever had (ok it's the only shrimp soup I've ever had but it was wonderful ). Eating there really feels like you're eating a homemade meal served by your friend's family. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and good portions for the price.

    I ordered the Chicken Enchiladas ( 1 Ancho & 1 Cilantro Cream) Plate this Monday night. Very rich,…read morevery delicious and everything tasted handmade with true love. The enchiladas were very soft and cooked well. The cheese was thick and the sauces were very aromatic. The ancho was more on the salty and savory sides rather than sweet. The cilantro cream was earthy, salty and tangy to the right degree. I really liked the well-cooked, tender bell pepper n red onions in the filling. The chicken in each wrap was very juicy, marinated nicely, dark meat and very flavorful. Thick like fajita, but taste, texture and appearance like hunks of pulled chicken off the bone. The black beans were chunky and spiced well. The rice was very moist, buttery and mildly seasoned making a highly addictive side with the enchiladas. The service was very welcoming, friendly and efficient. I need to try their bread pudding with whisky sauce for dessert, which is made in house here next time I come since that's one of my favorite desserts anyway.
