Lemon Tree - Houston

The food is great but they didn't give me the eggs I paid for. I love this place but this is disappointing. Y'all are better than this.

Such an amazing place! We enjoyed the parihuela soup and the paella. I also hear the arroz con calamares is good with the squid ink. You can tell the locals love it!

Ceviche was excellent , I tried the fried rice the last time and it was so delicious . Highly recommend this place

I used to work in the neighborhood a few years ago but never thought to stop by this place. Last weekend I had a chance to visit as some friends organized a get-together in the place. We arrived at about 7pm and the place already looked full. Parking was very difficult to find -there seems to be enough spaces for a restaurant this size but the lot was already almost full. There must be some other business in the building that needs parking at night. The food was just okay but the ambience and the service were great. The music went from a DJ playing the audience favorites to sometimes him holding the mike and singing for us. Most of the diners were Latin and one group seemed to be composed of very fun and lively middle-Eastern people, so the music was salsa, merengue, bachata, cumbia, vallenatos, with some fan favorites Arabic music from the 1990s and 2000s thrown into the mix. There was a lot of dancing going on. Now, back to the food. A quick survey among our party showed mixed reactions to the food. Some thought it was good. Mine (fish and shrimp in parsley sauce felt a bit bland. Another friend ordered breaded seafood and she was separating all the bread from her food because she felt that it came from a can . My wife had the weirdest reaction. She ordered the beef tenderloin in mushroom sauce and halfway through her plate she lost her voice! It was as if an allergic reaction just stopped her vocal chords in their track!!! She stopped eating and after about 15-20 minutes her voice slowly came back. (The beef was also tough to eat and drowned in too much sauce. It was visually unappealing. Our server was very attentive. She checked on us every few minutes and the orders were correctly filled. The bill however includes a 20% service charge (also known as a tip , so keep that in mind when you pay your check. All in all, it was an enjoyable visit. Except for the food, of course, which, because it is a restaurant, seems to be an important factor to keep in mind. Alcohol is BYOB. We did not order any desserts. The final bill was about $25-28 per person, including the above mentioned service charge.

Byob and thier ceviche is the best I have ever had. If your craving passion fruit get ghe dessert you won't be disapointed.
