Food was great! The restaurant menu has s lot of choices. We had the salmon which was moist and no fish taste. Meatloaf had a very nice sauce. Short ribs were very good too. My margarita had so much alcohol I had to ask for less. Never had to do that before! Dessert was nice sized so we didn't feel like we overdid it later. It was my bday and I don't know why they asked when reserving a table because it was not noted at dinner. The manager was very attentive though.

The food was great but I will be honest my scallops dish was a tad bit salty. I really don't eat much salt so it could just be me. The butter cake was delicious and I can rave all day on my strawberry lemon drop it was so good. The waiters and service were great I do recommend to try if you're in the area.

My favorite! Lunch, dinner, or drinks they hit it out of the ballpark! I go to Shepard a lot because I love having 'lunch with Logan'! She's incredible! Although, the Katy and the Woodlands store are also fantastic! I've yet to go downtown or Katy, but I hear that they are perfect for business lunch!!! I'm going to try soon! Everything they do is 1st class service and the atmosphere is pure!!! I can't say enough good things! I love it when my people come from all over the world so I can show them Houston hospitality!!! That's Federal!

The manager, Justin, as well as the wait staff treated me so well on my recent visit. I called in advance & Justin was able to make sure I could watch my godson play in his 1st MLB game. Had a table reserved for my group. We had the most amazing meals too. The Ahi Tuna was seared perfectly and I loved the polenta. Great flavor!! My friend said her Salmon entree was cooked perfectly. As well as my other friend had the cheeseburger bowl. Hats off to the Federal Grill for taking such great care of my table. I'll definitely be returning soon.

I'm leaving this review because my first dining experience was GREEEEAT!! I met up for our Best Friend Catch Up dinner last night. I wasn't sure about this location, but I'm so glad we chose it. I arrived and the valet driver wasn't readily available so I just kind of pulled in and sat there for a few minutes...I figured he was probably just one person parking all the cars since the restaurant didn't seem to be very busy. The night was beautiful and breezy. In fact, I was shocked not to see anyone sitting outside on their beautiful patio... It's a very serene and classy set up. Someone from inside opened the door for me as I walked up and directed me to the host stand where I was quickly seated in the cocktail area. I loved it over there! All the tables have white tablecloths and it's just a very pleasant and mature atmosphere. Not too dark but lit beautifully with soft white string lights added for calming ambiance. Our server suggested the meatballs as an appetizer and they did not disappoint. This appetizer could literally be a meal. It's probably six meatballs on a hot Skillet plate with mashed potatoes and fried onion straws on top. The swedish meatball gravy that it comes with was not too thick and was deliciously seasoned to perfection... A yummy sharable. The bar is close by so we had to have a couple of adult beverages to toast our best friend's dinner. I had prosecco and he had a glass of wine. After that filling appetizer we ordered our entrees. He had the scallops and I had the braised short rib (half order).... I didn't think we could add anything else, but our server insisted on allowing us to taste their signature dessert, bread pudding. He gave us a small sampler serving and I have to say it was perfect & Delicious...Whoever made it really put their heart into it! See you soon Federal Grill!

Yessss! Best waiter ever! Food was excellent! Cocktails were amazing! Smoked old fashioned was an experience! Great location for a date night or business dinner. Even had some prom goers while we visited.

I love it here! Great music and EXCELLENT service. They have indoor/outdoor options. I love the private room option too. I've come for brunch, lunch, dinner, and hosted a business event here. I have yet to be disappointed. The food quality is fresh and tasty and they have some pretty cool drink options too. Can't complain about the funny bathroom signs either. Although the parking lot is really small, they do have a complimentary valet parking. Recommended dishes: *bang bang shrimp *meat loaf *kung pao calamari *meatballs *crab cake *diver scallops *Mac and cheese *mashed potatoes *broccolini *bourbon honey basil Rickey *bourbon peach smash

An easy choice for any night! The Rice Military location always has such a welcoming staff, the outdoor area is a vibe with the lights and the restaurant inside has a great restaurant-bar vibe with its low lighting. As far as appetizers, I highly recommend starting with the Fried Cheeseburger Roll. The mixture of the spicy ranch, sweet and spicy sauce is surprisingly something we've decided to come back for. Sounds simple but your mouth will have a party. The Sticky Ribs were good but not our favorite. It does come off more on the Asian inspiration side but since we are big carnivores and grill often, it wasn't that impressive for us. Worth a try, absolutely! The Chicken Fried Steak was a great choice! It's a good serving but not the biggest we've ever had in Texas. Beyond that, the pepper country gravy paired well with the breading. Tastes like home and I just simply wished there was more of it on my plate. I'm a salty person, so I could have added a bit on the plate but don't let that deter you from giving it a shot. If calories didn't count, I'd put this place as a once a week go-to in the local area!
