    French dip is deserving of its moniker. Not usually a fan of shoestring fries, but these are very good.

    Been to Houston's in LC, Denver and Houston Texas plus here in NYC. Ribs are the best! Spinach dip is fantastic!

    Love their Filet Mignon and Rib Eye steaks. Their Thai beef salad is also very good.

    The Hillstone cheeseburger is a hidden treasure really. And they have the best honey mustard for dipping your fries.

    Spinach & artichoke dip is a great starter. They have live jazz next to the bar.

    Drinks are good. Nice bartenders. Burger is always good, I always forget to say no mustard but it's not over powering.

    Come early to avoid the crowd. Our find a spot at the bar and order apps while waiting for your table.

    apparently they do have the ol Houston's tempura chicken fingers. Guess we'll have to go again soon! Also real art, which is nice.

    The best cheeseburger in town, hands down - after licking your ten fingers, bien-sûr.

    Fun Fact: the owner independently owns 63 restaurants. Houston's became Hillstone to avoid the new law that requires a franchise to post calories on the menu!!
