Editorial Review for Cafe R&D – by Sabra Girard
In Short
Cushy stools and a wall of windows that reveal the patio area surround an island bar. The chef's bar that overlooks the kitchen and dimly lit, cozy booths fill up fast. Eclectic art hangs on a cork wall and oversized bowls of shiny apples and wine corks are scattered throughout. The reubenesque and henri sandwich are served with succulent meats and fresh flavorful bread and salads are piled high.

From the ambiance, friendly service, and food, Café R & D exceeded my expectations. My boyfriend and I made reservations for Friday night after we heard about this new Hot Spot. Upon arrival they were pretty busy, so we sat at the bar where the bartender greeted us immediately and had my delicious lemon drop martini in front of me before I could blink an eye. The hostess came about five minutes later, calling us by name to seat us on the patio which had comfortable seats and a nice coy pond. Our server was great and very knowledgeable about the menu and the history of the company… Did you know the ever so well-known Houston’s owns Café R & D? We order some sushi to start that was wrapped in a soy paper with shrimp served with great dipping sauces. For dinner my boyfriend and I shared the Ahi Tuna Salad and a Pan-fried Sea bass that melts in you mouth- both were impressive. I thought I was going to pop after dinner, but we proceeded to get the full effect and order the Banana Cream Pie that about knocked out socks off- it was so GOOD! Café R & D is Superb!
Pros: The lemon drop martini and the pan-fried fish
Cons: N/A

I took my mother in for an afternoon Mother's Day lunch and we both thought it was fabulous. The service was excellant and the food was outstanding. She had the Spinach & cheese omelet, which had goat cheese in the middle - YUM! I had the pan fried sea bass which came with a wonderful cole slaw and beautiful heirloom tomatoes with just the right amount of olive oil - OUTSTANDING. They had a great wine list by the glass and while we didn't have dessert they sounded great. Everyone was friendly and looked sharp. I would recommend to anyone and was so glad we tried it. Enjoy
