- SSimonHouston •1 review5.0Dined 6 days agoThis was our first time visiting, the cocktails were amazing and the bartender Sean was super attentive. The ricotta was delicious, light and fluffy and focaccia was nice and warm. They even offered more focaccia when we ran out. The margherita was amazing, the dough was perfect. All and all a perfect date night spot. Making a reservation wasn't required but it was something good to do ahead of time because this place did fill up a little after 8.More infoRossa Room$$$$• Cocktail Bar• Bellaire•4.4
