Bistro 59 - Renaissance Houston Hotel

MY REVIEW: The menu is varied, and everything I've tried has been excellent. Today I had a seared salmon salad with cold green beans, grape tomatoes and purple onion. The salad was good. The salmon was flawless--crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. The service, on the other hand, was afwul. I had a long wait for ordering, a longer wait for food, and an interminable wait for the check (a personal pet peeve of mine). The place was full when I arrived, so I gave them some slack; but by the time the check SHOULD have come, the room had emptied out, so no excuse.

Also, the food is a bit pricey, but I knew that going in. I was willing to pay $14 for the salad, but I almost gasped when I saw an $8 charge for a glass of iced tea! I'm not on an expense account, and I do have a rational mind. I will go again since I work in the area, but next time I'll look for a different waitperson, and I'll definitely stick with water!

MY REVIEW: We intended to try the Sunday Brunch at the Greenway Plaza hotel, but we weren't too impressed with the selection (Italian food and we are doing the Low Carb Lifestyle). We ordered salads and ice tea. The food is fine and the service was very good. However, we were charged $12 to park our car (for less than an hour), so we don't intend to go back.
