“My wife made a reservation for my birthday celebration and we were placed with Rashad. Excellent recommendations and well versed on menu choices. Service was always top notch and never missed a beat on keeping drinks full and checking on us. Food had an amazing taste full of flavor and very fulfilling. Recommend trying this restaurant if you’re in the area and ask for Rashad!”
“It was our first time visiting Brenner's for a family birthday dinner, and we were thoroughly impressed from start to finish. As soon as we arrived, it started absolutely pouring down with rain. The gentleman working valet was incredibly kind and handed each of us an umbrella so we could make it inside without getting soaked. It was such a great first impression. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with both upper and lower levels and a really elegant atmosphere. They also have a wonderful outdoor patio bar and a stunning garden area with running water features. We were served by Lexie, who was super friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. She took the time to explain the menu and recommended some of the customer favorites, which we really appreciated. We loved all of the starters, but our absolute favorites were the lamb lollipops and the shrimp kisses. For our main courses, we all ordered steaks, and every single one was cooked perfectly. The sides were equally impressive, but the lobster mac and cheese was the standout for our table. It was absolutely delicious! We also tried several cocktails, and my dragon fruit cocktail was so refreshing. For dessert, we got a little carried away because everything sounded so good! What we didn't realize was how large the dessert portions were. They are definitely shareable. While every dessert was delicious, it would have been helpful to know the portions were so generous since each dessert is around $12. That's more on us for not asking, but it might be helpful for servers to mention it when guests are ordering multiple desserts. In the end, we left happy, completely full, and with plenty of dessert to take home. Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience, and if we're ever back in town, we will definitely be returning to Brenner's. Highly recommend!”
“Absolutely stunning ambient! The atmosphere is always 60% of the experience at a restaurant for me. The food is just perfect! I wish the tables outside were was good as the inside ones but we had an amazing time. Also, the service was good, but not to the same level of the food. I believe the servers aren’t dressed properly to the dress code required for the costumers. I also ordered a 2015 wine and they only had the same wine in the year of 2019, but that was ok. I wish I was served by someone more experienced, but the lady was very nice though.”
“This was better than expected! I travel quite a bit and normally eat out but this place was amazing. Our waiter Miguel was great and the drinks and the food were great. We ended the night outside enjoying the wonderful scenery. I would definitely recommend! 5 Stars ⭐️”
“Brenner’s on the Bayou is hands-down one of the most beautiful spots in Houston for an intimate outdoor ceremony. I've the pleasure of photographing a few micro weddings here. They have several spaces available for celebrations. The ceremony space feels private and lush, especially with the sound of a harpist echoing through the trees. Also, the garden area is breathtaking. Following the vows, couples and their guests usually enjoy a cocktail hour followed by dinner that is absolutely delicious. It’s the perfect venue for couples who want a seamless transition from a romantic garden ceremony to a high-end dining experience. Highly recommend for any 'micro' or intimate celebration!”
