    We had heard great things about the Federal American grill and walked away disappointed. The meal was to celebrate our sons birthday which they forgot and after having a disappointing meal we decided just to get the check and go home without reminding them on the celebration. The salmon was farm raised - which I thought a restaurant of this level would have had wild or "sustainability farm raised". Towards the end of our meal a couple of staff were making noise beside our table assembling all of the silverware - they could have chose a place further away so that the noise wouldn't have been an issue.

    We went for Thanksgiving dinner. They had a pre-fix menu that had a choice for a traditional Thanksgiving plate. It included everything that we would have had at home in the past. Food was good and served promptly. The wait staff was friendly and professional. They are known for their excellent old fashioned cocktails so we had one before dinner and it was delicious. We’ll be back.
    The Federal Grill - KatyResponded on November 29, 2024
    Hi Pete, thank you for the wonderful review! We're so glad to hear you enjoyed the Thanksgiving dinner, especially the traditional plate and our famous old-fashioned cocktails. It’s great to know the food and service were up to par. We truly appreciate your kind words and look forward to welcoming you back for another great experience!

    Food was ok, they ONLY had a Thanksgiving menu, and that fact was not advertised, and for $65 a pop too much money for what it was. Service was good, atmosphere was good, food just ok.
    The Federal Grill - KatyResponded on November 29, 2024
    Hi Dennis, thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the Thanksgiving menu didn’t meet your expectations and that the pricing felt too high for the experience. We appreciate your comments about the service and atmosphere, and we’ll make sure to be clearer in our communication about menu options in the future.
