The Cork is my favorite place to go to for girls night, date night with my hubby, Friday wine down and even drinks with my parents. The atmosphere is inviting and relaxing to any and all wine lovers. In addition to an amazing wine selection, the coffee is fabulous! The customer service is great, be sure to ask for a taste if your unsure about a wine. The team knows many of the customers by name which adds a warm and personal touch. If you are in the mood for a summer sipper try the bellinis and/or frozen cosmos...YUMM-O!
Pros: Great staff, fabulous atmosphere and close to home
Cons: n/a

We have been going here since they first opened their doors and as far as Tex-Mex at a neighborhood place goes, we love it. Contrary to earlier opinion of another reviewer, the warm salsa is actually what keeps me going back. Don't get me wrong, I love pico (and Capulcos has REALLY good pico!) but I love the warm, smoky salsa best. My little one loves the playroom--and so do her mom and dad b/c we can talk and eat while she plays and we're all happy. They have stumbled on occasion with a barely-warm plate of grilled shrimp or lukewarm rice, but that has usually happened on a busy, busy weekend night and they always make it right. If you don't speak up, they don't know so you can't complain. The borracho beans are some of the best in the area. I've had the Del Mar on numerous occasions and it is always piping hot with fresh and tasty ingredients. The teenager 'digs' the supreme nachos and you've got to go try their breakfast!! The best huevos I've eaten this side of Brownsville. Their recent 'specials' have been bringing us in more frequently too--that and the $2 margaritas!
Our servers always seem to genuinely enjoy their jobs and go to great lengths without being intrusive to make sure you are happy with your meal.
Moms/Dads if you're looking for a Tex-Mex place to take the family, either last minute 'cuz you don't wanna cook, after church on Sunday or a planned get together with friends/family, you can't miss with this place. The food, the service and the price can't be beat. Is it a fancy place or do they serve top-notch, impeccible margaritas 100% of the time? No, but it's a good family restaurant with fresh and tasty ingredients/meals, reliable and willing servers and staff and we enjoy it frequently.
Pros: fresh ingredients, great service, plenty of room, playroom for kids
Cons: could use a different paint scheme...somewhat drab & depressing interior

My fiance and I finally got around to trying BR this past Wednesday night - we had tried the Monday before only to find that they aren't open on Mondays. Boy are we glad we tried again! We both travel for our jobs on an expense account and have the luxury of eating at some of the finest restaurants all over the country, so we feel we have fairly discriminating taste. We thought the steaks here were some of the best we have ever had! The prices were comparable to a high-end steakhouse (think Ruth Chris or Pappas or Del Frisco's) but when the waiter came over we found out that a salad and a side were included - making this restaurant more affordable than the others I mentioned which are completely a la carte. I ordered a filet and my fiance ordered the ribeye - he kept raving about the flavor of his ribeye as the best steak he has ever had until I popped a piece of mine in his mouth! Then he said that mine might even possibly be better than his fabulous choice! The sides were good if standard (spinach for me, mushrooms for him). The greek salad as a starter was a nice change from the same ol' ceasar or house options usually offered. The only thing that was less than perfect was that the service staff seemed a tad inexperienced - but very eager and earnest. We found ourselves grinning as the waiter walked away - if you look at the very minor gaffs as endearing rather than irritating you will have a wonderful evening.
Pros: Best steaks around, good wine list, fair prices
Cons: awkward location, inexperienced staff

My wife and I dined at La Parmigiana for the first time last night. All of our dishes were superb (Tomato Fritti, Envoltini del la Nona, and Fettuccine la Parmigiana). We loved the attentiveness of the owner Sylvia and the waitstaff. My wife is diabetic and was delighted to find many low carb options on the menu. We've traveled in Europe and Asia and have lived in Australia and Canada. La Parmigiana could compete in any of those markets. We feel fortunate to have a restaurant of this style and calibre in Cypress. The BYO policy is great. We were surprised that more diners weren't taking advantage of it.
Pros: Inventive cuisine at reasonable prices.

We have eaten at EJ's many, many times. The pizzas and wings are GREAT!! The pizza crust and cheese used are much better than the chain pizza places. We have two small daughters who LOVE to play in the play area which consists of movies, a huge chalkboard, books, etc... The atmosphere is extremely family friendly!!
The restaurant is always clean and well kept. I've always avoided strip center restaurants, but have made a huge exception!!!
Thanks and keep the high quality and friendliness.
Pros: Great Pizza and high quality ingredients, Child play Area, Clean
Cons: NONE!!

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in Houston. I eat here at least once every month although I try to go more. Their margaritas are excellent and large. The chile con queso is the reason I keep going back as that is one of my reasons for eating Mexican food. The atmosphere is nice and good for children. There is a playground outside. I always sit in the inside main dining because I think the service is better closer to the kitchen. The service is very attentive. There is always someone going around to refill your drinks. I think they are team oriented because you will be helped by many people and may wonder who your waiter is. I usually order the Laredo plate which has a cheese enchilada, tamale, rice and beans. I always opt to add the taco for an extra dollar or so. The cheese enchiladas are delicious and always mouth watering. Never conglomerated cheese like you may have in other places. Just recently I started ordering the beef fajitas. They are wonderful! Excellently marinated and juicy. After trying them here I rarely order them if I go elsewhere because I know I will be disappointed. I always bring my friends and no one has ever complained at my choice of restaurant!
Pros: Tasty food, wonderful service, great margaritas
Cons: nothing!!!

Pros: food, darts, pool, shuffleboard, karaoke, trivia, live bands
