Food was good--our waiter is the reason for the rating and why we will not be back. The waiter had the audacity to say to my wife during his intro spiel: "there are some complex words on the menu, I can answer any questions for you if you have trouble". The waiter should not insult our intelligence in the first 2 minutes of talking to us. We were there early evening of June 4th and had a bald waiter (didn't care to get his name). Wanted to try a new place on our anniversary-we picked wrong here. 

Business response:

Hi Alex, while we are glad you enjoyed the food we are disappointed in your experience with our server. Please send an email to bcaswell@reefhouston.com with a full account of your visit so that we can work on bettering our service and staff.

You could hardly get a seat at lunch time. The food was good, however, to me, it seemed over rated. 

Business response:

Hi Pauline, we do recommend that our diners make reservations for both dinner and lunch service in order to be sure to get a table.

Food was really really good, but the tables were so close together, waiters kept bumping into the back of my chair the entire meal. Also very noisy. Not a relaxing meal, which the excellent food and high price deserved. 

Business response:

Hi Terry, Thank you for your honest feedback. We will definitely use it to further better our restaurant and service.

I like this place. You can hear your partner and the food is great. The formulae for success. 

Business response:

Joel, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again soon.

We thought about lunch here today. After parking we were approached by a hostile valet, there was no sign on the lot, who chased us off. Not a great 1st impression

I am sure the fish is great. But if you are a vegetarian and have to come here to dinner... Good luck!

Everything good here. Waiter, Sethel, awesome. Crab cakes, delish. Tuna steak, fresh and perfectly seared. Wife's crabmeat carbonara was outstanding. Deserts were fresh and presented very well. Chocolate cake was the winner but bread pudding interesting and unique as well. Would return without a doubt.

We had the cerviche and crab cake appetizers then the Red Fish and Grilled Yellow Fin Tuna as entrees and were very impressed! Excellent food, service and wine selection. Definitely will return.
