We hand-grind our own sausage and hand-trim every ounce of meat in our butchery, then anoint it with the savory seasonings and marinades we've honed over generations.A few margaritas on our patio and you've found your new casa sweet casa.

Wow! Great dinner here tonight. Jonathan’s is known for their steak and Italian, which has always been solid. But I’m trying to eat light before the holidays and ordered sea bass. It did not disappoint! My friend went for piccata but requested to sub with shrimp. They accommodated our requests and the food really was exceptional. Don’t miss the chocolate cake that was bleeding chocolate. So nice. Our server, Eduardo, was the best. The GM, Sam Levine, is on top of things ensuring that all is running smoothly. I will be back. So glad this place is in the neighborhood.

The best steak restaurant in Houston. They have one significant flaw; the wine list. There are no reasonably priced wines on their list and many of the wines they do have are extremely overpriced.
