    The hostess was great in regards to changing our table when we had less people coming. The only issue I had was with our waitress. Our waitress did not come to the table until after 15 minutes that we had been seated, meaning she waited until our whole party arrived ,took a little bit too long to gather our drinks as well as our food. The food was good however some aspects were cold and overall, I feel like everything needed a little bit more seasoning besides your regular salt and pepper.

    We chose to eat outside on the patio as we brought our dog along and this was one of the first evenings it was actually cool enough to sit outside. This is one of the nicest patios we know of in houston, it is spacious, covered and doesn’t face a parking lot or busy road. Our server brought out a bowl of ice water for our dog, nice touch, and was friendly and efficient. They have a nice wine list and very reasonable wine prices. The menu has a large variety of dishes and we enjoyed the chopped salad( which we split). The chimichurri steak was delicious, perfectly cooked and served with cheese grits and grilled veg. They have very good pizza also, There were several families with small children dining outside so there was a bit of kid noise but there is a play area for kids which is nice. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Union Kitchen
