TEN, located at the foot of the escalators at The Esplanade has become one of these places that you know won't let you down. We came for lunch the first time and surprised to to see an old friend Jodee behind the bar. You all know her from Houston's and Hillstone where she was a mainstay and the excellent service she always provided. She never lets us down.
Jeff, the convivial owner is an active front end manager and makes you feel like you are stepping into his home. He explains his approach to satisfy his guests, knowledgeable bartenders that know their way around making excellent cocktails and true food from scratch. Whether you order the pot roast, chicken noodle soup, chicken cordon bleu, hamburgers with fresh cut fries or any of the many items on the menu. you know you are getting fresh, well prepared real food. Nothing is frozen here and you can taste it.
This cozy little place fits like a glove and the guests are as friendly as the staff, each asking you if you tried.......whatever they just had. This is truly a remarkable dining experience that surprises you with its small size but overwhelms you with great food and friendly service. Stop by and you will be pleased as I have on the several visits made there. And don't forget to ask for the parking validation before you leave.
