Reviews for Osso & Kristalla in Houston, TX
Had a nice dinner here while traveling to Houston. They were able to accommodate a pizza with no cheese. Reasonable prices and... nice wine list. We ordered bruschetta appetizer and the pita chips were stale. When we brought it to the attention of theserver, we would have appreciated replacements as these were obviously bad. Otherwise a good experience Read more
The ambiance, the service and especially the food were amazing. If you are in the Houston downtown area, check out this place!!... The watermelon basil martini was top tier, not forgetting to mention the pepperoni pizza, house salad, and the chicken pestopasta!!???? Read more
I visited this place on Sunday June 5, 2022 morning for brunch. It was a nice looking place, didn't care for the scattered... Astros decorations cuz I felt like it took away from the setting of the restaurant. I was told the owner owns the Astros so thatexplains it, but it's tacky to me. Anyways me and 3 friends went so their meals are pictured too. The menu changes often soit's not the same each time you go which is cool. We got the pastry board which was alright for frozen pastries in bulk. Theirhoney butter and "berry" jam was good but didn't know what berry was in there. I got banana nut bread French toast. Idk what Iwas thinking when I read it on the menu but it wasn't good, not terrible; SUPER sweet and more of a dessert in my opinion. A bighunk of bread w/whipped cream and caramel sauce with a ripe banana on it cut lengthwise eh. It didn't come with anything so Iwas disappointed but the presentation was nice. A friend got the pork chop which tasted of oregano to me, but was juicy. One gotthe funghi pizzetta and added chicken, meat was bland but the cheese was pretty good. The 3rd got shrimp pesto with penne pastaand chicken and limoncello bread pudding. It was ok nothing special, the meat was lightly seasoned but dry...it was chickenbreast though. The pudding was softer than what I'm used to and I'm not a lemon fan.. Overall it was alright, I'd MAYBE goagain. It was like a fancy diner to me??????????? Read more
Had my bride proposal brunch here and it was great! There was an initial misunderstanding but the manager made sure to make... amends in the end. Definitely coming back, we all enjoyed our time here. Affordable meals with strong mimosas! Read more

Went in looking for a new brunch experience, the service was excellent. We sat at the bar like always and we were greeted by a... wonderful bartender Maricela. She made us an amazing margarita and some other specialty drinks. I had the short rib and eggs onthe brunch menu and it was amazing. I was a little skeptical since I am not a fan of short rib but I was pleasantly surprised.Definitely have to come back. ???? Read more
A very nice restaurant with very good food. I had the braised short rib. The meat was incredibly tender and vet flavorful. ... Also had the bread pudding for dessert... again very good. The only downsides were that the service was a bit slow and that thenoise level was quite high. It was difficult having conversation and our waitress was having trouble hearing us when we wereordering. Still, I would go back again. Read more
Service was responsive, the food was good, portions were good. The exchange rate wasn't friendly to us so it was a bit on the... pricy side but no more expensive than anything else downtown. We weren't huge fans of the signature cocktails, but to eachtheir own I guess. Read more
