    This is a regular stop for us when we are in Houston or, New Orleans. Classic Louisiana style creole dishes, wonderfully prepared and presented are the main attraction. Lots of nice, fresh gulf fish as well. Great service and lovely room.

    Everything is always perfect when I lunch at Brennan's. Although I have been to Brennan's twice in the within the last 3 weeks, I never received the Lagniappe that was offered via an email. Still, I am never disappointed.

    Classic menu, attentive service, lovely venue (especially the cozy high back chair 4 tops), impressive wine selection. Dinner always feels like a special occasion. So glad Brennan’s continues on strong.
