Cullen's

As you drive up to Cullen's you are welcomed with an unexpected but captivating building. The first thing I thought was..."this place is HUGE!" Yes, this is true...definetly an experience going to Cullen's.  Cullen's basically covers it all.  Let's start with the dining room. Fine dining at it's greatest.  I can't seem to pinpoint the perfect adjective to describe it. The dining room is a romantic and elegant setting, and very detail-oriented. They home make their breads everyday, and even make their own chocolates in house. They have won Houston City Search awards of:  Best Steak House 2009, Best Houston Romantic Dining 2009, and Best Houston Fine Dining 2009.

Moving on to the rest...there is a billiards room, a sports bar, a bar/lounge, seven private dining rooms, patio dining, and "Cullen's Live"--an entertainment venue.  Only open for 2 years now, Cullen's seems to host up to 150 events every month! And now for the bar....
