The Annie Cafe - Houston

First time, coming here. The food was okay. We don’t mind spending money on food because we enjoy eating out, but this was just so generic.My husband had the burger and the bottom bun was so soggy.. he has never had a burger with bread that is falling apart because it’s soggy. I had the Scottish salmon and it was nicely cooked along with the purée, but not rave worthy. My daughter had Rigatoni and it was basic.. not flavorful. The place is okay. The service is awful and I have to think that is a reflection of management. Maybe top management is not treating their employees well or overworking them and it shows. Often we would wait for a ver long period of time to get our orders, to get water, new drink orders, and the restaurant was not even full. I would not recommend this place. Just last weekend we spent the same amount of money at a better restaurant in Rice Village with flavorful food and outstanding service. Save your time and go somewhere else with elevated food and wait staff that is happy to help.

The setting was great. High energy atmosphere even at night. Very classy. Everything is good.

We just went for Thanksgiving dinner and it was fabulous. It was a bit of a splurge, but holiday menus are like that, indulging. It was a great idea to have cookies and cider for when we waited for our table, we stayed plenty happy with the comfy space by the bar and our treats, and just waited a few minutes. Everything was served promptly and with beautiful presentations. I hope the kabucha squash soup is part of their regular fall menu! I super enjoyed it! The apple pie with vanilla ice cream was light and delicious to finish a wonderful meal. My little one ordered the prime rib and I think it was just as big as the dad's (for the kid's price), and he crushed it, he was in heaven and said this was a 5 star dinner

The atmosphere, food and staff made it a fun and enjoyable business lunch.

I give the ambiance and interior design five stars, but the food gets three.
