Memorial Day Weekend I made reservations for Sunday Brunch at La Strada/Westheimer based on La Strada's own Best Jazz Brunch claims. Talk about a bad idea! When we arrived, we found a dark, unattractive place lit by harsh glare thru windows on Westheimer. There was no "jazz," only canned LOUD UGLY disco-sounding music. Our reservations were for 1:30PM. We arrived around 1:20 and were told to wait in the bar area. We found a table, then waited for 40 minutes without being called! The CRUSH of humanity at the bar was INTOLERABLE. Meanwhile, the back 2/3 of the restaurant was EMPTY tables and waitstaff stood idle. When I asked the hostess "When will we be seated?" she said she didn't know, but "soon." "Soon" never came. Finally, we pushed our way through the crush of bodies and left! Horrible experience - will NEVER return!
Pros: NONE
Cons: , Unbelievably crowded, Terrible Management
