"The food was great! Good price on the Mimosa Carafes on Sundays. The music was a mix of 2000's- now rap and R & B. We went for brunch and stayed a little longer than expected."

- Genevieve G.

"Had a fantastic time at Standard Bar in downtown Houston! The atmosphere was on point, thanks to the exceptional management/Manager Alvaro. The place had a great vibe, and the music by down/upstairs Djs was top-notch. Shout out to #heavyweightmusik for the invite.
