Review:

Housed in a beautifully maintained 1930s house in Houston's River Oaks, the Backstreet Cafe is an award-winning café that has been serving Houston diners with unforgettable dining experiences for more than 35 years. Growing from the humble beginnings of a small restaurant that served salads, soups, and sandwiches, the Backstreet Café is now a critically acclaimed, chef-driven seasonal American bistro and one of the city’s top eateries. The award-winning Houston restaurant serves a seasonally changing menu that features dishes that combine Cajun, Creole, Asian, Hispanic, and Southern influences, along with a range of excellent wines, craft beers, and handcrafted cocktails. The Backstreet Café offers an incredible Sunday brunch, complete with live jazz and signature cocktails, and has a stunning New Orleans-style patio with a huge camphor tree where dogs are welcomed with water bowls and treats.
