Reviews describe Houston Avenue Bar & Grill as a reliable airport dining option with good food quality and a friendly atmosphere. The crispy chicken tacos are highlighted for freshness, crisp texture and balanced spice, while other dishes like grilled shrimp, burgers, salads and pasta offer solid choices for varied tastes. The setup is convenient for charging phones while waiting to board, and service is frequently noted as quick and courteous, though a few visits mention slower moments during busy times. Prices are on the higher side for airport dining, but many guests feel the portions are satisfying and the overall experience is worth it for layovers. Overall the place is seen as a dependable spot with tasty options, good energy and a welcoming feel.
Great set-up, reasonably quick & courteous service. But my steak came up bland & chewy. Almost impossible to cut it using bread knife. Yes, no steak knife inside the secured area of airport.😁
Stopped by the Houston restaurant at YUL for a quick bite before my flight. The cauliflower popcorn was actually quite good - nice crunch & flavor - though there was a bit too much sauce on the salad it came with, which made it a little heavy.
Tried the fish tacos as well. They were tasty, fresh enough, but nothing particularly memorable. For airport food though, they did the job. I wish they offered plant-based options though other than Cauliflower popcorn.
Service was good - our server seemed pretty busy but was still friendly & attentive enough, especially considering the typical pace & environment of an airport restaurant.
As expected, prices were on the higher side for what you get. I still think it's a bit of a rip-off, but I guess that's the airport standard these days.
Overall, a decent option if you're passing through & need something quick & satisfying.
The food are very decent, I had the Texan burger. However, I'm more impressed with the service. I forgot my phone in the restaurant & the staff / manager quickly help bring it to Lost & Found.
A decent sit down airport restaurant. Food is good. I ordered the Houston burger with fries. The flavours were fine, nothing life changing but not disappointing. As far as airports go, it's fairly priced I think since everything past the gate is overpriced.
Service was quick & kind enough. I'd eat here alone again if I have some time to waste.
4 stars taking into consideration location (past security in airport) & expectations of airport places.

The worst nachos i have ever had...ever (most expensive too). It is an airport restaurant, so I guess I didn't expect much, which is good. Vending machine chips with some cheese melted on it & like a few items thrown on. They did give some kepcup type "salsa" & sour cream. They were quick too.
Quick bite in the airport before flying, usually next to gates for flights to the US. Food is so-so, acceptable, of course priced at airport level. Service is quite slow, which is not ideal for a "quick bite" before flight. Having observed the other tables after sitting down, I actually asked for my check right after my steak was served.
Service was fairly quick, & my waiter was very friendly & attentive. Eggsbenedict was bland & overcooked. Fries were fried dry, & so was the toast. Very expensive for poor food.
