Came here for a brunch after a meetup at nearby dog park. We were able to sit outside patio, enjoy fresh air and served by friendly staff. They were so nice to bring water for my fur baby. Great food, nice atmosphere, highly recommended.

I wish I had more stars to give this restaurant! The live pianist, beautiful decor, and friendly staff set an excellent atmosphere for the delicious brunch my husband and I enjoyed here. This is the kind of place you go to eat and fall in love.
The spinach omelet was so flavorful and the creamy cheeses inside kept it so moist and delicious that I didn’t need any sauce on top. I also enjoyed the bagels with smoked salmon, capers, shallots, and cream cheese! I was pleasantly surprised by how light the meal felt.
Thank you, Cafe Benedicte, for a lovely, memorable brunch!

Came here for lunch and was not disappointed by the food. The paella was fragrant, flavorful, and there were threads of saffron in the dish. The ingredients were fresh. The mussels, shrimps, calamari, chorizo, and chicken were perfectly cooked. The whole dish was delicious. The lamb shank was big, and super tender. The mash potato and green bean sides were good too. Baklava for dessert was the perfect ending. The phyllo pastry was crispy, thin, and flaky. The ground walnuts added extra texture, and the honey brought the dessert together. Scrumptious! The baklava was served with a small scoop of ice cream on the side. I have never eaten a baklava with ice cream so it was new to me. However, I found the ice cream to be unnecessary as the baklava was already a sweet dessert. I couldn’t taste the sweetness from the ice cream after eating just one small spoon of baklava.
I received great service today and thoroughly enjoyed the food. The restaurant has an olden but modern look, and there are plenty of seats for small and big groups. There is plenty of parking too. I will be back for sure.

First visit but we'll be back. I ordered the 5oz filet and my husband ordered the pork chop with cream sauce. Both meals were absolutely perfect! I liked that I could sub the mashed potatoes for more veggies to stay low carb. Very calm peaceful setting.

This place is fantastic. The cocktail, a vodka martini, was perfect. The calamari was very good. I had the blackened redfish Pontchartrain and my wife had the lamb shank; both entrees were absolutely fantastic. Service very good and unrushed. We have to go back.

First time here, my wife and I were amazed at how great the food was. She ordered an Angus Burger and I ordered a Gyro plate. The staff was amazing too, especially our waiter Eric who was very informative and attentive to us. Will definitely tell my family and friends about this gem! Definitely coming back.

Date Night was an incredible experience!
First, let me tell you about the service, Awesome!
Second, the food was DELICIOUS!
Third, the ambiance was CHILL, with a smooth piano playing in the background.
I was so relaxed that I forgot to take pictures of the place.
What I liked the most was that just about every guest knew the staff in the restaurant by name. Meaning customers keep coming back for more. I know I will be back, too.
Lucas,
Thank you for all your attention during our visit!

I would go back for the stuffed mushroom appetizer alone. It was practically a meal by itself. It was generously portioned with roughly square inch cubes of steak.
Absolutely Recommend It!!!
Also I’d like to add this Is very dim lighting with a live piano player making a great spot for a romantic date night. Its very classy and the pricing is modest, I’d absolutely recommend it and I’ll be back again.

Amazing! The fact that you can have lunch items starting at 10am is the best thing for me. The lamb was delicious, and the lobster bisque was one of the best I have tried. Overall, there were 7 of usz and everyone enjoyed everything they had.

This is my third time here tonight and the food still has not failed me. I have had the chicken piccata the lamb Gyro, the Greek salad they can’t go wrong here. Everything is delicious and Fahed. The manager is awesome very friendly and welcoming to all customers. this has become our number one go to place for my husband and I.

Overall experience with the food was decent. Nothing stood out but the poor service is what going to keep me away. The waitress didn't really acknowledge us or asked if we needed a few more minutes. Only assumed we were ready because we put down the menu and looked elsewhere which my sister actually suggested we do. She even joked about how we must have been studying the menu. No, ma'am... I was bored and didn't want to look rude by staring at others which I ended up doing anyway!
The complimentary bread was burnt a good thumb size and still brought it out us. We tore off the bread and just didn't make a fuse which I wish I did. We were asked if we wanted more bread when the food came out... umm thanks but that's a little too late lol. I believe it was the manger that asked.
I ended up finishing my water and was never offered a refill until the veryyyy end which the table was already cleared. I declined and asked for the check.
Not attentive waitress at all.

We had a lovely dinner. If you like Foisted Gras you need to go here. It is the best in Houston. They make it in house and the portion is very fair .

Service was fast and courteous. I had the Chicken Piri Piri, and it was excellent. Steve had the rib eye with lobster tail, also very good. Last time I had the scallops in saffron sauce, and it was fabulous. Great atmosphere, reasonable prices, and close to home!
Jill Bounds
Great service and menu. Plan to valet park, the parking lot is tiny. Order the baked brie pastry. scrumptious
