Best Ever. I love Houstons and eat there every chance I get. My favorite foods to order are the crispy chicken salad in the lime-peanut sauce, the veggie burger and couscous, the salmon, the french dip, and the spinach dip! If you have ever eaten at TGIF's, Applebees, Olive Garden or any other of these places and like their spinach dip, you will think u died and gone to heaven when you eat the one at Houstons! And you will NEVER eat that watery, dull spinach dip anywhere else again! I just read a review about the gentleman who was asked to remove his hat to dine in and he refused. I think they should have left him alone and let him wear his hat. i think it was snobby and rude for them to inforce such a stupid policy. He should have been served. I am surprised because I think the wait staff and the hostess are very nice people. And I must say though, that he is mistaken about the quality of their food. It is by far, the best food and is top notch. I dont care if it is in a mall parking lot, more chances for me to find a spot and get in there and enjoy the food. Besides, they have a gold mine in the spot, have you seen that lines on a Saturday night?

Pros: Tasty food, friendly, attentive staff, free soda refills

Cons: the price, the lines

Eat Diner Food + Get Insulted. They serve diner food and have a one page laminated menu. I ate there before wasn't impressed. On my 2nd and last next trip, at the door the hostess said that they ask guys to take off their hats. I ignored her. A manager's messenger was sent again to our table to tell me that "to preserve the dining experience they ask guys to take their hats off" And then a third person cam over 60 seconds later at which point i declined to do so. They then wouldn't send a waitress over. So after being in the restaurant for 10 mins, we just left. I just don't get whats so special about the place. Its leather booths and a dark room and dinner food ordered off a laminated menu which makes TGIF look like a 5 star restaurant. No decor, no ambiance, a stupid policy. I will not be going back there again and neither should you. This place is not a tony tribeca restaurant or midtown waspy corporate lunch spot. Its a franchise in a mall parking lot. I don't know if they remember that.

Roomy banquettes and hefty portions typify this polished American grill that's popular for business deals and special occasions.. In Short
Burnished brass and stained wood complement roughly mortared brick and the occasional plant. Amid ubiquitous earth tones, corporate types and small parties (celebrating or simply living large) occupy deep booths done up in fine upholstery and lit from above by pin spotlights. Burgers, prime rib and steaks are the specialties of the house, but the menu also includes salmon, salads, pork chops and roasted chicken.
