Doc's

This is my new favorite spot for a fun sophisticated night out in Houston. The music was amazing, the food delicious (though pricy it was well worth it) and the service was top notch. We had Micha as our server and they did an amazing job, but everyone on staff was helpful and polite. I highly recommend Docs for an elevated dining experience.

Love it. Went to the Inauguration and I’m thrilled to know that this building is being used to its full purpose. The venue is designed for enjoying great jazz, great drinks, and the menu is equally Devine. I was also impressed by the staff. They provided great service throughout the night. The stage is well positioned, I don’t think there’s a bad seat in the house.

Went to see Tiana Hall on December 20th for my Dad’s birthday and bottom line, IT. WAS. AMAZING. Our server Roan really made my dad feel like a king and was very kind to the rest of our guests. The ambiance was very festive for the Christmas show. As for food, the weekly charcuterie board and ceviche were probably the highlight of our meal. There were a few hiccups with sound but the overall experience was amazing. We will definitely be back.

If you're looking for a spot in Montrose that feels exclusive without being stuffy, book a table at Doc's. The setting here is super low-key and effortlessly chic, making it perfect for a date night or a classy night out with friends. The staff are all incredibly nice and friendly which adds to the relaxed, high-end mood. The food is fantastic. The Caesar Romaine and the Arancini dish is a must-try starter. The entertainment is TOP TIER; the entire set was well-organized and super entertaining. In my opinion, Doc's delivers on every front. I would absolutely come back & Highly recommend for a sophisticated evening out.

Today I went to Doc’s with my friend, and we had an absolutely wonderful time. I had the lobster, and the food was absolutely amazing — I truly loved it. Giovanni took great care of us and was incredibly warm, attentive, and professional throughout the experience. Even though there were some minor sound issues, everything else was fantastic. I definitely want to come back, and obviously I’ll ask for Gio to take care of us again. Thank you so much — I hope to see you again soon.

Loved this new jazz spot – the vibe is grown and sexy, and it has so much potential. Honestly, they feel like they’re just one big artist (or a few dope regular artists) away from really blowing up. We grabbed the aioli garlic fries since we’d already eaten dinner; they were good, just a smaller portion than I expected. The food menu leans a little fancy for my taste – some of the descriptions had me low-key confused about what I was actually ordering. That said, I’ll definitely be back. Solid 7/10 for now, but I really believe this place is going to grow into something special.

We weren’t able to make it to the Grand Opening but decided to go Tuesday November 18, 2025.. The valet parking is next to club which makes it super convenient.. Upon arrival a lovely staff member opened the door for my daughter and I.. It only took a couple of minutes for us to be escorted to our seats.. My daughter made our reservations for the upper level seating so we used the elevator.., The attendant that accompanied us was friendly, knowledgeable and the table that my daughter selected was absolutely amazing.. The view of the stage was great .. Our lovely server Kimberly was amazing from start to finish.. Always attentive, kind and professional.. The service is amazing across the board.. The servers seem to work as a team with the ultimate goal of delivering great service.. We enjoyed the food and the music.. The Expresso Martini 🍸 was Excellent.. I will add delicious to my statement.. What I did notice however is that their cocktail glasses are very small.. I am 74 years old, I always have only 1 Cocktail when I’m out socially.. I couldn’t figure it out at first but I did order another Expresso Martini and that is when I focused on the cocktail glass size (smaller than other restaurants/establishments).. My daughter ordered Margaritas and she said they were good.. Small glasses, my daughter had 3 drinks.. Dijon Shrimp was our appetizer . The shrimp were large and cooked to perfection., The grilled sourdough bread was the delicious lemon butter sauce was great. We both ordered the Baked Half Chicken.. My daughter ordered her chicken with Brussel Sprouts and my side dish with French Fried.. The plate presentation was beautiful.. Chicken was moist and delicious.. The brussel sprouts were amazing.. The chicken is not well seasoned.. I was able to detect that I would need salt and pepper with my meal when I saw the chicken served at the table next to ours.. Any request during our visit was met with a willingness for our dining experience to be great.. I am always looking for a celebration.. My grandson was just promoted in the Navy so I decided to order a dessert which we rarely ever do., I ordered the Coconut Pistachio Tiramisu.. As with everything else it was Delicious.. We absolutely enjoyed the music, the food and the amazing service.. Thank you management for your welcome and hospitality.. Thank you Kimberly for making our dining experience Five Stars ⭐️

I had an absolutely incredible experience. The show was nothing short of fabulous—an unforgettable performance that set the perfect tone for the evening. The food was spectacular, every dish bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. What truly elevated the night was the exceptional service. Our waitress, María, was warm, attentive, and made us feel genuinely cared for throughout the entire meal. The sommelier was equally impressive, offering thoughtful recommendations that paired perfectly with our dishes. Their combined hospitality created an atmosphere of unmatched warmth and sophistication. If you’re looking for a place that delivers amazing entertainment, exquisite cuisine, and world-class service, Doc’s is the spot. Highly recommended!

Jazz is back and lives in Montrose! After a couple of the jazz clubs in downtown closed, I really hadn't found a place to enjoy. That is until Doc's took over the historic 1930's Tower Theatre building, which has undergone many iterations of businesses over the years from video store to Tex-Mex restaurant to name a few. Now I am glad that it is being revived with a musical jazz space that has been missing in Houston. My visit was for the soft opening, the first look that asks to be mindful as the kind of night where you stay open to the experience, knowing it's still settling into its own skin. They offer complimentary valet parking or self parking is also available on the side of the building. Additionally they do offer rider share with ALTO and 15% off discount when using their code DOCS15. The dress code I would say is business casual to dressy. It is good for date night, groups or solo to enjoy some jazz. Ambiance: 3/5 The vibe was very relaxed with the jazz band entertaining and keeping it looking classy. While the club is very nostalgic with its historic site, once inside, it felt very industrial and cold. I don't recall seeing any art on the walls nor any type of connection, which probably is only focused on the band. The reason for the 3/5 is because depending where you are seated, the kitchen can upstage the double bass and distract from movements where you're wrapped in the harmonies. There is no door separating the kitchen from the dining room, so at times the kitchen drowned out the music. Not sure if maybe placing a heavy curtain as they do in another historic venue in River Oaks does do muffle some of the outside noise would help. Service: 4/5 They did have a house full of servers and bussers being attentive and making sure everyone was taken care of. The busser kept my glass filled with the water I ordered, but wasn't offered any more water after I finished the bottle. Food: 4/5 Not sure if the menu is the permanent one as it did have "soft opening and the date printed on it" but based on what I ordered at this time: Espresso Martini: it was good, made with coffee liqueur but wasn't too sweet. Savannah Sling: was refreshing but was a bit watered with a lot of ice. It was boozy because after one, I felt it. I didn't have an entree, but did have a side of fries with garlic aioli, for the cost felt it was a bit steep for the the handful serving size I got. The garlic aioli was good and the fries were seasoned, but when I dipped the fry in the sauce, the fries lost their flavor. At the end I did receive a complimentary glass of champagne. Kim Prevost and the band were entertaining and enjoyed their show. I'll be on the look out for future shows, and excited to experience modal, swing and big band jazz. Doc's is refining its edges and finding its groove amongst the history, the music and the potential.

Overall very pleasant night. We had the most delightful waitress, Lindsey, and sat center balcony for the first show. The wine was superb - we ordered the cab from the menu. (They have what looks as if it will be a good wine selection as well - although menus were not available yet. I'll be interested in seeing it next time.) We were there for the experience mainly which delivered. We were able to easily chat without distracting others. The music was the perfect volume - not too loud, not too soft. Next time, we maybe more likely to stick to appetizers & sides next time as we enjoy trying more things. The tartare was fresh. The ceviche sounded great but since we had tartare, that was out of the running for the main. We landed on the half chicken dish. It was pleasant especially with lemon squeezed on it but not exceptional. It was oddly smaller than anticipated & had very little visual interest. If its skin was roasted or there were sides, it would have helped with the aesthetics. We enjoyed the sauce so a little more of that would have also been beneficial. But again, we were there for the vibe & would go again. Kim Prevost had a great voice - we thoroughly enjoyed her voice and the band. I hope they also mix in some younger talent later on to draw a mixed younger/hip crowd. The crowd was mixed the night we went - which adds to the appeal. Keeping in mind, we were there for a soft opening - there are a few things that will likely be tweaked over time. One is that the overhead lighting upstairs will need to be taken down a notch. The placement of the lights are just in front of the table & overhead which is annoying for a person with glasses like myself. Dim them or consider floor lighting to enhance the mood. The downstairs area seemed to be the right balance of bright - you can see your food but, it still had ambience.

This is upscale jazz club and it also serves food. The minute you walk in you feel like you are in another era. People dress up, the service was excellent and food was great. We ordered the tuna tartare appetizer it was excellent. We also had the Wellington bites that were delicious but small. The empanadas were great also. The octopus was main dish it was a bit too chewy but seasoned well. What wonderful addition to Houston. The only thing is wine is very expensive for what receive. my husband ordered a bottle of wine that was recommended. He paid over $80 for the bottle and it retails for $14. I know they usually double the price a little bit more but this was quite a big markup considering all they do is open up the wine bottle.

Truly amazing venue . I watched the progress as it was being built. It was well worth the wait.

Superior attitude with sub-par overpriced food and mediocre service. Sound "engineers" need to figure out how to do their job. Couldn't hear the vocalist nor was the artist's name advertised on the marquee. Disrespectful and unprofessional. Plenty of better jazz clubs in Houston. Save your money and go somewhere else.

Had a wonderful night to kick off the holiday season. Angel was a fabulous waiter. The food, drinks and music was awesome. We will definitely be back!

The service, staff, environment, improvements and quality of music was great Saturday 11/22/25. The food was terrible. Had a Caesar salad and chicken- both of which were tasteless. Do not mind a limited menu and understand why done there but with that type of menu each item should be A++ - which was not. Good idea to have a pasta but clams are a limited demand protein. Again with a limited menu u you have to provide dishes for 90% of the clients and clams are not that. If I go back, will just have drinks

My wife and I came to docs excited to try something new and leaving never wanting to come back. Although the setting was nice, the crowd and noise was overwhelming to even hear the music and the service was awful. Took our order when we sat down. Drinks took about 20 min to come and the waitress never came back to take our order, we had to get a manager to get us another round.

This is a neat and fun place. We were there for the soft opening. They have a lot of staff and seating was friendly and efficient. The place has a great vibe. The band was just OK. The food was fine, nothing I would eat if I wasn't there for music. The waitress was very pushy and asked three times for us to order drinks. With a 9:30 pm show and a 6 am flight the next morning I was not interested in a cocktail. The part that really rubbed me the wrong way is the waitress brought out, poured, and charged us for a second bottle of sparkling water we never ordered. I guess she was going to run up the drink bill even if we didn't want a cocktail. What a shame. We left right after the show and didn't have time to dispute it so we could rest for our early wake up.
