Taste of Texas - Customer Satisfaction Less Than Satisfactory

Always amazing, friendly service.
The food is cooked to perfection and served hot and appealing to the eye. Don't get me started on that epic salad bar! Love it.
Idk but the food was missing something.
My daughter and husband liked it. But it was ok for me. The staff is really good at what they do. Our food took a while but we were next to a table of like 12 ppl. So I get it. We had a nice waiter.
I've been to this restaurant several times.
It never fails to meet my expectations. It's a fresh take on luxury dining, where you are met with Texas history and art. They will make any special occasion a very special memory!

Have visited many times before.
Today just wasn't the best experience as the others. Maybe because we said we came in just for a family dinner and not a celebration dinner, our waiter was not tentative and attitude was not there. Appetizers arrived and did not receive plates t

Worst ribeye I’ve had
Our cowboy ribeyes were mealy, tough, loads of gristle, and almost no seasoning. They were actually dry with no juiciness despite being medium rare. I love ribeye because they’ve always been so juicy and flavorful . It’s a shame because we were
Incredible service and food
I don't know what was better- the food or the service! We were looking for an upscale dinner to dress up for while we were in Houston, and this was a 20 minute drive from downtown. They had incredible food and incredible service. The atmosphere
Come here at least once!
Pretty much tracked with all of the other reviews -- a one-time experience you'll won't regret. Staff was exceedingly warm and copious amounts of very good food.

I went to this restaurant on 6/15/25. When it was our turn to be seated, I was told the strollers are not allowed in the dining area. I was asked to bring a carseat instead. I complied and went back to get the carseat. After I came back in, the

Birthday Celebration
My boys love coming to Taste of Texas for any occasion. Everything is always so fresh. The salad bar is the best in the area. Sometimes I feel I could fill up on just the salad. There really so many delicious choices. Love the big blocks of cheese on
Outstanding food and service
On vacation in Houston, we chose Taste of Texas in search of an exemplary steak and it did not disappoint. We split a 32 oz Porterhouse which was amazing. The salad bar was a great bonus. All of the food - the steak, side of Texas au gratin potatoes,
Not so pleasant surprise.
Great place to visit for a earthy lunch or dinner, and to feel like royalty with the attention from attending personnel. I have been visiting this restaurant since 1998, that I can remember... perhaps before.... A preferred place for my family and c

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Taste of Texas Houston at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Taste of Texas Houston page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* CoolestCough45, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* CoolestCough45 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to CoolestCough45 for any questions Peter may have as CoolestCough45 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* CoolestCough45 now uses their connections at Taste of Texas Houston to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If CoolestCough45 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, CoolestCough45 receives the $200 reward which is credited to CoolestCough45's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Taste of Texas Houston!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
