Went with some overseas colleagues. We did not have booking so waited at the bar. After watching others, we all had a bloody Mary. They were excellent! The food and service was also very good and recommended.

I had a business lunch there the other day and the music was so loud I couldn't hear what was being discussed. The food was okay, I would think they would have larger menu choices. I a glad the lunch was expensed by the sales rep because I wouldn't have wanted to pay the high prices for the okay food... More

After many menu changes this restaurant no longer resembles our old favorite. In fact, nothing that we loved is available any longer. The prices are extremely high and while the food is pretty good, I'm really disappointed in the loss of my favorite items. The staff were underwhelming in their attitude and the service was somewhat careless.

I have been there five or six times and nothing has changed. The food is very well prepared And served, very clean restaurant, a little cold In every season so that... More

Love this restaurant. Super service and terrific food every time. Dress dressy, or casual, you are always made to feel welcome and important. Try the prime rib, its the best, the french dip, the caesar salad, just a few of our favorites. You will come back again and again.

Great atmosphere is here. Dim lights and good drinks at the bar. A plethora of booths to dine in. Good prime rib and excellent cheese bread. Good food for the price.

If you need a nice place that most people will like, Houston's is a good option. Nothing absolutely spectacular, but all around good.

Everything is always good. Restaurant itself is a little too dark and loud. Their veggie-burger is one of the best (if not the best) in the City.

One day, my co-worker says she wants to go to lunch at this place called Houston's (also referred to as Hillstone's). It was something new to me because I had never heard of this place though I drive by it often. WOW, was I missing out! This place is Awesome! Located in a perfect area in the West University area,...
