    My wife and I had the pleasure of enjoying breakfast at Birdies, a charming café nestled within the Omni Hotel Houston. Despite being slightly overpriced, as hotel restaurants tend to be, the delectable dishes, convenience, and attentive service more than compensated for the expense. As a pancake connoisseur, I was delighted by the Triple Stack Griddle Cakes. These pancakes were a cut above the rest, boasting a fresh, fluffy texture with the ideal balance of moistness to dryness. Each bite was a mouthwatering ode to the perfect pancake. My wife opted for the Western Omelette, which proved to be an excellent choice. The omelette was satisfyingly filling without leaving a heavy sensation in the stomach—a testament to its well-executed preparation. The pecan wood-smoked bacon was another standout, offering the perfect crunch without being overcooked. Its delectable flavor left us craving more, and we couldn't help but wish for a few extra pieces on our plates. In summary, our breakfast experience at Birdies was an indulgent delight. Though it may be a tad pricey, the quality of the dishes and the convenience of dining within the Omni Hotel Houston make it well worth a visit. The next time you find yourself in need of a satisfying and scrumptious morning meal, be sure to give Birdies a try!

    I enjoyed myself. Brought my family. We were staying in the hotel. It was very convenient and the prices were acceptable. The food quality was great. I enjoyed the chicken tacos, bao buns, and tomato soup. The fries were very good and the aoli was delicious. My sons chicken was so good. I tasted it. We also got the Texas sheet cake and it was so rich and chocolaty. I enjoyed it. Will be back. Try it. It was easy and delicious.

    Review for Birdies Café and Bar: I recently dined at Birdies Café and Bar, located right inside our hotel. Although it wasn't initially planned, circumstances led us to have our meal there after a long day of touring Houston. Overall, the experience had its ups and downs. For our main course, my boyfriend ordered the burger, while I opted for the chicken burger. Both dishes were satisfying and flavorful. The burgers were well-prepared and packed with delicious ingredients. As an appetizer, we ordered fries, we were pleasantly surprised to learn that we had the option to substitute the fries that came with our meals with salads, which turned out to be fantastic. The salads were a refreshing and we got to enjoy fried as well. While the food was enjoyable, the service had a few hiccups. Our server was friendly and accommodating, but there was a period of about 30 minutes where she seemed to have forgotten about us. In our particular situation, it wasn't a significant issue since we were staying at the same building . However, had it been a different scenario, it might have been more problematic. We did appreciate that our server acknowledged her mistake and offered us free drinks as an apology. At the end of our meal, when we were ready to pay, our server was nowhere to be found. We eventually asked the bartender to bill it to our room to expedite the process. In summary, Birdies Café and Bar provided a satisfactory dining experience. The burgers and the option to substitute fries for salads were highlights of the meal. Although there were some service mishaps, such as the server forgetting about us and being unavailable at the end, the overall service was friendly, and our server acknowledged her mistakes. Given the circumstances, it was an acceptable experience, but improvements could be made in terms of consistency and attentiveness.

    Absolutely awful Thanksgiving food. We paid $65/person for not even mediocre food. The place/atmosphere is fine but whoever did the cooking needs to be fired.

    Food was good and our server was very polite. The service is a little slow, but that's normal for a hotel in this area. The bar is super elegant and clean with a superb modern design.

    Amazing vibe for a Hotel bar, good food, and most of all amazing service! The real star is Seyara for her glowing personality and fantastic drinks!

    Great food, had to wait less than 2 min to be seated. Clean. Upbeat. Open atmosphere.

    Let me tell you about Jessie. Jessie is the most accommodating, kindest, most understanding human on the planet. She knows when you want to chat, she knows when you want to be left alone. She knows how to deal with Karen from the pool who is insisting to cut the line for her gin martini. And she does it all with a smile on her face and a laugh that is simply infectious. This place doesn’t deserve Jessie. None of us do.
