    I love this restaurant! I've eaten here about 6-7 times! I was recently here Sunday with my kids & sister to celebrate our birthday. There was a wait time of 35 minutes when i arrived but we were seated in about 15 minutes. Our waiter was amazing! She came back to our table multiple times to make sure we didn't need anything and to remove straw wrappers, plates that we were done using and refilling our glasses. I ordered the pot stickers which were so delicious + the warm rustic apple pie!!! My 4 year old wanted the mini cheese burgers! He ate 3! My oldest ordered the small stack of pancakes with bacon and sausage (Brunch ends at 2pm!). My sister ordered the chicken parmesan which i knew was delicious because i ordered it the first time i visited Grand Lux Cafe.😋 I will definitely be back again and again!

    Food was delivered quickly and with great service. The food was good for the price range, had more fun at the appetizers than with the entrees. Slices of Carmel cheesecake made up a somewhat limited dessert offering, they were fantastic. All in all we had a good time. Would return to try other things next time.

    This place is cool it reminds me of the Cheesecake Factory. I ordered the salmon at first because I always order salmon everywhere I go. But the salmon was not good at all no seasoning or any type of flavor. So I asked the waiter to exchange my meal for a bacon cheeseburger. The waiter was very attentive.The burger was 10/10! For the desert I ordered strawberry cheesecake 6/10 and beignets 8/10 with 3 different sauces on the side. Overall I would personally give this place a 6/10.

    Lovely place! The ambiance is nice and the food is great. The bread is a bit sour, I don’t know if that was done on purpose haha ! 🤭 The service was good. Despite having a lot of customers at the time, the food came out very quickly The bartenders are super experienced and will go out of their way to make good drinks! I had a virgin strawberry daiquiri which was awesome !! I would definitely recommend :)

    This is the second location that I'm visiting. I've been to one of the Grand luxe cafes in New York, so I came in knowing what to expect. Pros: 1. Great ambience. Can't argue with that. 2. Food is good. Loved the flavors of everything we ordered. 3. Service was top notch. Our server was very considerate, attentive, and very respectful of our several customizations. Accommodated us very well. 4. Plenty of parking nearby. Cons: 1. It was a busy evening so service was slightly delayed at times. Not that it bothered me but definitely something that can be improved.

    Absolutely not worth it! Everything is overrated and service is terribly bad. Our table was not even served the bread and butter! Restaurant is out of calamari, strawberry and many other items are not available. Server is disrespectful and once served you a bad dessert he simply gives you 2 options, either accept it as is or simply wait another 25 minutes. Not to mention, he’s always in a rush and before you complete your sentence he’s rushing away. I will never be back here and not worth spending a penny in this place!!

    Atmosphere was really nice. Warm relaxing colors for comfortable eating experience. The food wasn't as GREAT as I was expecting considering price and location, but it wasn't bad at all. It was very tasteful and was very warm when I received it. Others at my table couldn't say the same, reporting some of their dishes were under seasoned, having it replaced. They also were out of a lot of things we tried to order. (understandable because of global supply shortages) I almost slipped when I walked into the men's room. Something to look out for. They either don't have enough cleaning staff or don't clean of often because the entire restroom floor was wet with urine residue and water splashes from the people walking over to grab paper towels. Expected a little more overall but would still definitely come again for the drinks.

    This place looks awesome and has the decor of Las Vegas. So the venue and atmosphere gets a five star for sure. But the food came a bit short. They have a great selection and a great variety. But the quality was not very consistent. Their week known Cafe Beef Wellington was excellent, but some of the other dishes were average. The drinks were not very impressive and did not have a good presentation. But it was also very affordable. So you do pay for what you get. Overall I do recommend this restaurant.

    Got the pork chop and the Buffalo chicken rolls. Food was pretty good but not amazing. Service and vibe was fine. Good variety of choices and price wasn't too crazy. $20-30 for most plates, with steaks going up to $50+. It's good overall.

    I came here with coworkers during lunch hour, and it did not disappoint at all. Food came out pretty fast and was spot on. It looks very elegant on the inside and has a great ambiance. I wish I had more space to try dessert. Extensive menu to cater to all walks of life for sure. Perfect for all occasions, and I can rarely say that for all restaurants. I had the Grilled Chicken with lemon sauce and subbed the pasta for rice. It was creamy and wonderfully cooked while healthy too! For finger food lovers -Chicken Tender meal was presented nicely, and you just want to just stare at it.

    Had a wonderful time dining here. The service is top notch, the atmosphere is great, and the food! Oh the food! I had the Buffalo chicken bites and the chicken and mushroom brown butter pasta. Both were great! Everyone around me were enjoying their dishes too. Highly recommend!

    We love this place. Everyone we've been too is always so fancy. This one in Houston especially. Its pricey but not more than any typical fancy restaurant. We always get the pasta carbonara. We actually shared it because It's so much of a portion. I eat eat a lot so that says something. It's one of our favorites. Kids meals are nice too. Great selection and our service was great.

    Grand lux is a place that I haven't been to in years, my sister suggested we go to this place for lunch and what a great choice. The food is still delicious and well prepared. We got seated right away no long wait on a Monday afternoon. I had the passion fruit ginger drink and my my was it so good! My sister had a non alcoholic drink as well and she enjoyed it. My salmon was cooked to perfection and not even dry. The only issue we had was that our food came out before my sisters appetizer. She had ordered a soup for her appetizer and asked the waitress what happened to it. And when he came back he came back with the food, but no appetizer. So he had to go back and get her soup because they had forgotten to prepare her soup. But overall I would absolutely go back and recommend this place to others.

    Always a good experience. Sometimes there can be a wait but this last time I went there was none. Food was delicious as always. The burgers here are delicious. Tons of options for every palette. If you like tropical alcoholic drinks, try the Calypso mojito. It's delicious.

    Our Sever Eric B was amazing and so was the Food and Service!! Tables and chairs not so clean. The parking was horrible. Saturday, My mom and I went for the first time. It took us 20 mins to find a parking spot. We finally entered the restaurant and it was Beautiful! The Host greeted us and took us to our table. Upon arriving at the table the seats were dirty with food and the back of the chairs/booth were stained. We asked the host if he could get someone to wipe the seats off so we could sit down; he rolled his eyes. He proceeded to grab a dry napkin and wiped at the syrup on the seat. I ended up cleaning the seats then there was a bug on the booth. The hosted said "It's just a silver fish!" I'm like you can't be serious right now. After I cleaned and exterminated the booth we were finally able to sit down. We ordered the Buffalo Eggrolls, a Chicken Ceasar salad, a Cheese Burger without the bun with a garden salad, an Omelet with hash browns, and an order of French Toast. Everything we ordered was wonderful and delicious! Grand lux Cafe, Please get the booth cloths steamed cleaned your restaurant is too beautiful!

    Went there during lunch and really enjoyed it. Although we went for 12pm there wasn't a lunch crowd which was good. The food was delicious and we didn't have to wait long. Server was great.

    I want to start off by saying the last thing you want to do is enter an establishment and have no one to greet you!!! We waited for about 6 minutes when finally someone came out from the kitchen area to seat us. He wasn’t friendly or inviting at all! After being seated Maximus was our server and he flipped our thoughts about eating here his service was impeccable!!!! The bread wasn’t so good but our meals were both delicious! I feel like Grand Lux in Houston wasn’t the best.

    I really enjoy the desserts at this place. The chocolate chip cookies are always fresh, and they're delicious. This time, I also tried the carrot cake, and it was GREAT! There's a wait time for your cookies if you're ordering to go. But it's worth the wait.
