The Experience

Testimonials

"My friend and I really had no clue what to expect, but just wanted something special and unique for my birthday.. and man did we get everything and more! This dining experience is truly one of a kind."
"Surprising my wife with dinner at Ensemble was incredible and well worth the adventure of attending dinner at an undisclosed location. We thoroughly enjoyed the company of the other guests as well as the wine pairings. I’ve never had such a true pairing before, typically restaurants just pair what’s expected but you can tell they work closely with someone to provide true, intentional pairings for each course with hard to find wines. We will be returning."
"We have been to Ensemble a few times before, and were so happy to bring friends along this time! They had heard us talk about how amazing the entire experience is and had been waiting to see for themselves! Ensemble was exceptional on every level! The food, the ambiance, the service were all top notch! Our friends were so pleased that they will be coming back soon with some of their family to celebrate a special occasion! Ensemble is a gem among Houston’s vast array of dining places. Chef Jan-Mitchell and team clearly know what it takes to keep people like us coming back for more! Cheers!"
"Dining here was amazing. We were so impressed with the attention to every detail. Compliments to the chef for such a stellar menu."
"Intimate, exclusive, a must-try."
"My date was skeptical to attend a culinary speakeasy - but we are so glad we went! From the moment you step inside, you feel transported out of houston. It’s a hidden gem for sure, and we can’t wait to bring our friends back! A few guests seated next to us had been to the dinner club before, so we got to hear about their first experience. Aside from meeting the coolest people, we loved interacting with the staff. There’s actually nothing like this place in Houston! 10/10 from start to finish!"
"The table was full of the most beautiful people from all over the world! My husband and I had the best time meeting everyone and had the most intriguing conversation. The wine pairing is a non-negotiable. They have created something stellar with this concept."
