We had theater tickets just down the street so chose this restaurant for our pre-theater dinner. We are moderate-expense travelers and the bill for our dinner was more than we've ever paid. With tea for one and water for the other diner our two dinners came to $54. That was for one chicken meal and one steak. If you're used... more

I travel constantly for my company and I'm always looking for somewhere different to eat. I was working in San Antonio last week and went to Houston Street Bistro three times.

The bistro’s well-appointed interior has such promise. But, as good as the service is, no one ought to suffer through the mediocre bread and mild olive oil that begins your meal. Stay away from the equally bland Caesar salad. I admit that ordering the fried special was probably not the wisest choice however the talapia, shrimp, and shoestring potatoes were... more
