   The new Relish is everything you could want in a local restaurant. Easy to get a reservation. Lots of parking. No wait time to be seated. Comfortable and pretty decor. Quick and competent service. Friendly general manager roaming. The cocktails and the wine were excellent. The appetizers were delicious and came out quickly and piping hot. The crab cake was full of lump crabmeat and almost too big, Ha. The beet salad was creative and yummy. The hamburger already has a fine reputation from the original location and it did not disappoint. Someone go "Kiss the Chef" because he is doing a fine job. I am thrilled that in early February, Relish will extend its hours to include lunch, a happy hour and weekend brunches. I think I have found my favorite local restaurant.

   The place looks great, and we were warmly greeted upon arrival. Food was delicious! Manager checked on us several times. Only qualm: the server did not tell us at the outset that the snapper dish was not available, delaying our orders. Also, the fried chicken takes longer to prepare than other dishes, something else we would have liked to know before placing our orders. Otherwise, a very good experience and we will be back.

   I was so excited to try this new location. The food just didn’t have much flavor which I thought was odd. We order deviled eggs which tasted mostly like Dijon mustard. Beef carpaccio was also smothered in mustard and a lot of arugula. Entrees just flavorless (hanger steak, salmon and chicken). Waiter was very nice and helpful. Food - nope.

   The new location is fantastic. The food remains excellent & the service maintains the same quality as the Westheimer location.

   Our hot food wasn’t hot. There was a noisy table 2 tables away. The artichokes were dry and not meaty. The server was attentive.

   At first we were a little ‘put out’ because we were ushered into the bar area and there was a large dining room to the left of the entrance - BUT we later determined that because we were ‘two’ that’s where those tables are. The cocktails are very good, the small Caesar salad is quite nice, the spaghetti puttanesca is fabulous, AND the homemade ice cream is to die for. Wines by the glass has a nice selection, and the place is beautiful - quite a nice addition to our part of town!

    Amazing food! Amazing ambiance! Amazing service! This place rocks! Fantastic bar! If you go once you WILL go back. Don’t miss the deviled eggs with crispy fried chicken.
