Patricia Runner: The veggie, egg, and swiss artisan sandwich is better than the bacon, egg, and gouda sandwich..I know, hard to believe.
Emily: Amazing baristas! Try a soy sugar free mocha- hazelnut misto. Tastes like Nutella in a cup, but healthier. Worth it.
Marc Coleman-Hill: Try the venti iced Tazo green tea!!
Houston Press: Check out Burger Fridays and try hits like the Bone Marrow and Bacon Burger topped with bone marrow custard, smoked Gouda, pickled shallots, Thai chili and (of course) bacon.
Tere Perry: Looking for an impressive dinner appetizer? Try V&A's Seafood Tower! Brimming with oysters, shrimp, crab, lobster, tuna poke, mussels and seafood cocktail...it's sure to impress!
Houston Press: 2010 Best of Houston® Winner: Best Steakhouse: Toss in the city's best crab cake, knowledgeable wait staff & a dizzyingly long wine list and you've got yourself a dinner that's well worth the splurge.

Ersin Sezmis: I think it's Houston's most popular steakhouse! Great ambiance, amazing steaks, lively bar, and elegant dining rooms. Unlike the other steakhouses, Steak 48 has a unique, lively atmosphere. Worth it..
Randy Haddox: Meat marshallow
Carlos Ortiz: Everything, great wine list and the wagyu rules
Houston Press: This is an elegant Upper Kirby spot to sip a glass or two from an extensive list of excellent, fairly priced wines or beers. Read more.
BestOf: Sonoma could beat out its competition in selection size alone, but it doesn't stop there. For the traditionalist, there are elegant cheese and Italian meat platters with fruit and nuts.
Donna Marie Jendritza: Jeremy B. makes Sonoma fun!!! Ask for him!
