Second Floor Regionally Inspired Kitchen

Food was good, probably not worth the price but the service was so good it mad up for the food. Servers spent time getting to know us and made us feel like family.

One of the strangest experiences I have ever had it a 4 Star Hotel restaurant. I come for Sunday Brunch. It was a super busy weekend. This is the ONLY restaurant at the Westin Galleria. I was the only customer, other than a family of 4, who left as I arrived. The waitress seemed to not like her job; had a sour attitude. The only atmosphere was a large TV blaring a Tele-evangelist! Food was edible, but nothing special and overpriced. All in all, truly not at all what I was expecting.

We were staying at the Westin galleria and found this great restaurant serving regional southwestern food. We experienced great service, the waiter was very knowledgeable to recommend menu items to us. Both cocktails were very good, the lobster beignets were interesting and very tasty. My husband ordered the southwestern salad with skirt steak and chicken. He said it was the best salad he’s ever had! I had the shrimp and grits and I pretty much cleaned the plate. To top off this great meal we had the drunken Texas pecan cobbler! Yummy 😋

The food was pretty nice. I had the carne asada steak with fries. Really enjoyed the marinate on the steak. The service was terribly slow and I didn't get a server for over 15-20 minutes. Granted it was around 10pm and the bar was a little busy. More of a bar atmosphere but a good late night adoption if staying at the Westin.

The staff here is so good and Really make you feel welcome. The drinks were great. The bartender had suggestions for a new versions of drinks that we hadn't tried before.

I was a little thrown off when walking in as I thought this restaurant was like it was pre covid. The menu was nothing like it shows on here to be or like the pictures you see on here. Their prices are way to high for me to be nervous on taking a chance. I did to give them the benefit of doubt. I was quite surprised. I'm glad I took a chance. This is their mustard salmon. It was so good! I loved their veggies. I loved their mustard sauce. Their salmon was huge and I couldn't finish it. It was cooked perfectly. My husband got the Texas burger and said it was good. This morning we went back for breakfast. I had the Belgian waffles, bacon and potatoes. It was so good. My husband had the pancakes and said they we're good. Just know that their staff isn't huge so if they take a bit to come say hi that they're cooking and preparing. It is open seating. The staff is super nice but at the same time they match energy.

So I just stopped here for a drink while my friend was shopping and I have to say. It was one of the best Cosmopolitans I have ever had. But they gave my eye check and it was 18 dollars. Yikes. I mean everything about it was really good the service was great. The timing was great. The price was yikes.

What ended in a busy day I truly enjoyed the ambiance and customer service. I was not just another black person I was a consumer like everyone else. The wings were spicy for my taste buds but that glaze was beyond delicious. I don’t know what brand of Pinot Grigio but it was worth every penny! I highly recommend this restaurant. #worthit
