As being a new chef in Houston the fantastic steak48 was recommended to me by a colleague and I was not let down in anyway every word Ive heard about this establishment has been on par. This has been my 4th time visiting steak48 and since my 1st visit a year ago my expectations are exceeded always from the food, the service, the hospitality, the ambiance, the kitchen it just all stands out so well but most of all what I appreciate is my server Maddie she is the definition of what a server is! Ive had Maddie every visit and that young lady does not miss when it’s comes to satisfaction her food & cocktail recommendations are always perfect every single time if you guys are doing any promotions soon she definitely deserves it. Also the Manager Neo checked up on my table as well as other and did a phenomenal job making me feel like family it’s very appreciated what this restaurant teams does FOH & BOH thank you all I look forward to visiting again soon 🙏🏽
