Enjoy our NEW SUNDAY BRUNCH with live music . Served Sundays, 11am-3pm. $3 Bloody Mary bar & mimosa specials.
The perfect spot for late-night dinner and dancing ! Fine dining and live music combine for the perfect night out on the town . Try the Miso Sea Bass , or go a bit exotic with the Squid Ink Fettucine !
The flat iron is really good and the bacon sautéed green beans that accompany it are a special treat! Great service too!
The service here was awesome Sat night and there was live music . Our server Laura was so nice & the managers were really attentive & checked in with us. The chicken and shrimp tostadas were delicious!
Known for jazz , but if that's not your scene, scat cat, check the Sambuca calendar and come when the band on stage is playing Latin, classic rock , acoustic rock, American standards or blues .
Fine dining and live music , for lunch or dinner . The perfect spot for late-night dinner and dancing .
ROASTED RED SNAPPER (with shaved zucchini , Chimichurri sauce , lemon zest & microgreens )
SHRIMP & CRAB BISQUE (creamy broth with shrimp & crab meat )
Food is delicious but the portions leave much to be desired especially for the price. Live music , dancing area & valet. Decent staff . Fair place for a date...company event not so much
Sambuca, located beneath the Rice Lofts, is like a modernized version of an old-school supper club. Read more
Had a awesome Time. The band was great. Yvonne Washington has a beautiful Jazzy Voice :-). Drinks were great. #monday #greattime
Lobster enchiladas were quite good. Good live music , but a bit loud so it can be difficult to hold a conversation.
Pretty much one of the few happening spots in Downtown Houston. I was surprised being such a big city that it was pretty much dead for a Friday night.
Try their Lemongrass or Asian Pear Martini (off menu ), both are equally refreshing and tasty.
Fun live music . Mediterranean lasagna was good but overly cheesy. Good drinks and service was pretty good.
The shrimp and crab bisque is great and surprisingly filling.
Food and atmosphere are great. Also great for post theatre drinks
The smoked pork chop and the Sambuca 75.
This is Our Band is playing tonight - fantastic grooves. Check out the rest of Aug.
Mark Dini band - live music - jammin Jazz - Mark was never this good in high school .
Try the Citrus Salmon , Miso Sea Bass , or the St. Tropez Salad - greek salad topped with peppered salmon .
Try the Serrano Chicken Caeser Salad : smoked chicken , cilantro , pepper jack , tortilla chips , serrano pepper Caesar dressing .
Shrimp and crab dip is a must have to start out with... It's Delish!
Nice vibe, but be prepared to be disappointed from a sound standpoint. Soundman can't mix a show to save his life. Been here for various gigs and the sounds is always muddied vocally and too loud bass
I love the place music is quite loud though. Hard to keep a conversation
The service was awful. The manager had to TELL the barman to take care of us when he saw that we hadn’t yet been taken care of after being there for 20 min! I asked for a food menu. Never got it.
So expensive ! A shot I had at a restaurant earlier was twice the price. Yes! Same shot (hornitos). I think 11 bucks for a tequila shot is overdoing it. I dont think my wallet can aford this place.
Serrano chicken Caesar salad , spicy but good
The lobster enchiladas and something martini (ceviche ) are amazing!
Try the shrimp and crab bisque ! Delicious!
Be sure to try the new pizzas that they have, especially the American Pie . Get there during happy hour and it's only $5.
The Zentenos band are really good!
Um...plastic glasses? Unseasoned everything and an overlooked steak . Definitely not worth the high end prices. I wish the food was as good as the presentation
The shrimp and crab dip is great!
Ask for Jason! Great bartender !
Just finished sittin in on the drums... Place is nice... Good good Good drinks...
Disappointing by closing at 11:00PM on the theatre district!you left the theatre and want a buzz and they are in a rush to go home...
Try the Blackened Red Snapper Etouffee
Ask for Christopher- the best server!
It was awesome, great food & great drinks
Lobster enchiladas are the best!
So much fun! And dancing !
Great lunch spot and patio !
Come out on Thursday nights to hear the best Latin jazz in Houston with Norma Zenteno and her band.
Great Ribeye !
Surprisingly good Escargot
Delicious Escargot
Great live music . The sticky toffee bread pudding is really good
Jeremy is on the ball as always!
Great ribeyes and burgers !!
Mini Indulgences desserts are delicious! My favorite is the chocolate peanut butter mousse. - Colin White
I loved this place! I hope they keep the lights on the patio. It looks much better with them. Staff was very attentive too. Will come back :) - Natalie Diaz
This place offers a menu based on creole recopies. The food is excellently cooked and served with a smile. Great place to hang out any time of the week or weekend. - Mark Veary
Found it by chance after walking by the downtown... I was hungry and the bar food was great, but it's a must go place for the beer lovers! - Luciana Madrigrano
Ashley is a great mixologist! Awesome place to hang! - Donna StClair
