The food was superb! The chef did an excellent job incorporating the wines into the menu even using wine reduction in the preparation. A great value, as well. Hard to beat the Westin Medical Center for gracious hospitality .

We had a lovely evening, the renovation is stunning and really feels Parisian! Our waitress Joy was very helpful and let us know about half priced bottle of French wines on Mondays. Loved the food, ambience and service!!

We went there for a business anniversary. Me, my business partner, and our two spouses. We were greeted by the manager, Billy, who took us to our table, took our drink orders, got them very properly, brought us a appetizer, the calamari with prawns was excellent. We ordered some wine, had some drinks, and we ordered oysters band tempore crab crab claws. Everything came out promptly and was perfect. We had another order of crab claws for an entree with the potatoes au gratin. We ordered the Russell sprouts, 2 ribas, and the short ribs. Everything was very, very good. A warning, the potatoes au gratin come with a huge scoop of sour cream, which I thought was a little bit excessive and wasn’t something that I cared for particularly, but everything was cooked to perfection. We asked for our food to be boxed up that was left. We paid our bill, had Samuel as our waiter, and Shonda. They both were very prompt, very courteous, very kind, and did a fantastic job. When we got home, I noticed that they had forgotten to box up and send my ribeye with me that I had left, because I couldn’t eat the whole thing, and I was a little disappointed in that, but everything was fantastic. Will definitely be back and I recommend you meeting Billy and Samuel.

    We had the most wonderful attendant, she interacted with us like we were old friends. Her recommendations were spot on. Then we met another attendant who had fantastic recommendation of the shrimp in the spicy garlic butter added to our steaks. The experience was delightful and that crunch cake that our attendant recommended was beyond delicious, it was addictive. Great experience and highly recommended.

    Both the food and our server were outstanding, probably one of the better margaritas I’ve had in the city. . The mole and the green enchiladas are our favorites, and I tried the yellowfin tuna taco special, which was fresh and delicious. Melisa and Davis, the managers, also stopped by the table to visit with us …all in all a great experience!
