il Bracco - Post Oak

“Updated on 09/17/2025 I just got a call from the manager, Jesica, who was really courteous and polite. She gave me an explanation of what could have happened with my drinks and service, but what I truly appreciate is that she took the time to call and leave me with a better impression of her restaurant. That thoughtful gesture not only changed my perception but also reinforced the excellent service they strive to provide. For that reason, I’m changing my four stars to 5 stars, and I will definitely return soon for another date night with my wife. Original posted on 09/15/2025 We had a very good experience here overall. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. The atmosphere makes it a great spot for a date night. I really liked the open kitchen at the entrance and the bar right next to it; it gives the place a modern, lively touch. My only complaint was with the drinks. I ordered a Mojito that tasted like it had no alcohol at all, and they also took quite a while to arrive. For dinner, I had the Chicken Parmesan, which is not listed on the menu but was recommended by our waitress,and it was absolutely delicious. My wife went with a unique version of lasagna, which turned out to be just as tasty. Overall, it was a very good dining experience. I would definitely come back again, though probably not if I’m in the mood for cocktails.”

“This is what all restaurants aspire to be. Excellent service, great food. I had the Seared Jumbo scallops she had the Marsala Trumpets with side of shrimp. With a side of Broccolini. Everything was exquisite. Water glasses (small) never got empty. Truly this level of service should be the standard.”

“il Bracco delivered a wonderful dining experience from start to finish. Our server, Parker, truly elevated the evening with thoughtful menu suggestions, impressive knowledge, impeccable timing, and genuine hospitality. The table touches were perfectly executed and made us feel well cared for without ever feeling rushed. We started with the steak tartare and focaccia, both excellent, followed by a beautifully cooked strip steak. We finished with tiramisu and espressos, which were the perfect ending to the meal. The ambiance was moody, comfortable, and cozy—ideal for a relaxed yet elevated night out. We’ll absolutely be back!”

“I had the Al Limone linguine with shrimp and it was amazing! I haven’t had a pasta I’ve loved that much in awhile. The roasted broccolini was also delicious. The steak tartare was okay, it had a strong horseradish flavor which was a little overpowering. It came with potato chips but I would’ve preferred a side of bread. Overall I had a good experience, I would definitely come back for the pasta”

“Went on a Friday evening and the place was fairly busy, but we didn’t have to wait since we had a reservation. The interior is very nice and was honestly the highlight of the experience. Unfortunately, everything else fell short. Between the food, the noise level, and inconsistent service, it was disappointing overall. We started with the Caesar salad, which was just okay nothing special and comparable to something you’d get at Olive Garden. For entrees, we ordered the bolognese, which was average but lacked flavor, and the Ginelli vodka sauce. That dish is supposed to be spicy, but it tasted quite bland. It also doesn’t come with protein, and adding it costs an extra $12 for what tasted like low quality chicken straight out of the freezer. Another issue was the noise level. The restaurant was extremely loud to the point where we couldn’t hear each other because of a nearby table. On top of that, the service was inconsistent, with parts of our order being incorrect and long gaps between check-ins. Overall, we ended up paying for overpriced, underwhelming food in an environment that wasn’t enjoyable. Unfortunately, we won’t be coming back.”
