Potente

Fancy Italian restaurant. There are plenty of free parking nearby. Service was good. Restaurant was very clean and I liked how the menus lit up when you open them. Food was pretty good. Portions were sufficient. It’s worth checking out once, there are so many other restaurants in Houston. -charred octopus 5/5 -branzino 5/5 -spaghetti al tartufo nero ⅘ - it’s good but they were very frugal with the truffle. -cafe cioccolato 5/5

Potente was an excellent choice for my birthday dinner. Kelly, the coordinator who assisted me, was great with communication and made the planning process very smooth. On the day of the dinner, our group had a spacious, private room. The servers were extremely attentive and professional. The food and drinks were AMAZING. We had a great time and I plan to visit again and again!

A+ service! And a cool menu 🤩 Spaghetti al tartufo nero: wowwww...enough said. Unless you absolutely hate truffle, this is a must-try. Frutti di mare: generous amount of fresh seafood - 🌟 for the crustaceans...halibut passable. Standard fare for this restaurant class. Torta di marsala: 😞 doesn't taste as described and texture is akin to a day's old muffin...opt for the sfera dolce!

Took the wife and two friends for her birthday and had an amazing experience. Service was very professional and attentive from the moment we got there. Food was delicious and very well presented. We all ordered different and tasted each other's choices and all were equally amazing! The atmosphere was excellent with a nice upscale romantic feel. After dinner we headed to the bar were we had more of ther delicious take on the old fashioned, the Potente Gold!! The bar tenders were very cool and friendly except for the one lady who gave of dirty looks and attitude but even that didn't make a dent on the amazing time we had. We will definitely be back.

Post work visit with co-workers for an early dinner that became more light eats and more drinks. Emily took care of our group and did a superb job keeping wine glasses filled and drinks replenished. Manager Nate was hospitable and inviting, checking on us throughout the evening. The tomatoes, fresh mozzarella and basil were on point. Definitely will be back to try the truffle noodles soon.

one of the best dining experiences we have ever had. We arrived early and had cocktails in the bar, exceptionall drinks, and great bar tenders. Got sat at our table wich was a very nice cozy booth. When we were ready, our server Lenin was excellent he went over the menu and pointed out some recommendations. Food was unbelievable!
