Our waitress was really nice… the oxtail sliders were delicious I just wish they could’ve been a little hotter when it came out. Enjoy the truffle fries with the side sauce

It was fight night so I was trying to be understanding but it could’ve been better. My party was almost 20 minutes early and I was hoping to get seated early. Not their fault, however They told me they would clean the table off and try to get my table of 4 seated. After being told continuously 30 minutes that the table was being cleaned, the fight being over, we were seated 20 minutes after our scheduled time. Once we were seated, we were told that there was a cat fish special that was $14.99 but once we closed the bill, the menu had changed and we were never told and the special had gone up to $20. It would’ve been nice courtesy to have that communicated. Would’ve been a better experience if we could’ve been seated at our scheduled reservation time so we could see the fight. Cat fish was over cooked and fries were not seasoned. Host was patient and tried their best to be accommodating but experience overall was not pleasant.

Service was good once we were seated, overall the 20 percent gratuity is steep seeing that the drinks are expensive and taste like juice.

The oxtails were good. Rockhouse is a vibe. Everyone looked good and the DJ was jamming. Only downside was the PARKING and the seating once your reservation is up. Still will recommend.

Came from Detroit for the Lions game. Detroit took over the restaurant. We brought the crowd & the DJ! Our waitress Breyonce was good. Service was slow but I don’t think the restaurant anticipated this huge crowd! When Detroit come, we deep!!

I had brunch (egg white omelet with a side of jack cheese grits) and it was delicious. Latifah was my server, and she was excellent. Brunch time has a nice vibe with sports on the TV and R&B and soul music playing. I recommend they add more soap dispensers and another hand dryer to the restroom. I will definitely return the next time I'm in Houston.

I enjoyed the brunch buffet. The food was very good and they had a variety of options. The server was hard to come by even thought we only ordered mimosas with her. Their wasn’t a time limit on the table and I loved that.
