The Second Floor Restaurant Review

: On the second floor of the Westin Galleria awaits an intimate, modern bistro and bar completely enclosed in glass. The dimly lit bar allows the weary businessman or shopper to escape the hustle with a scotch and spring water or a signature prickly pear margarita. A terrazzo floor, fireplace and sun-kissed windows create an interstice backdrop to enjoy the morning menu. For a reliable pick-me-up, dive into some pancakes with maple syrup. At lunch and dinner, you can explore unusual appetizers such as the mini duck hoagies with cheese and peach jam or simply nibble on the complimentary hot sourdough-and-sweet raisin bread. For the main attraction, skip the more standard fare such as the margherita pizza and go for the kitchen’s highlight---beef short ribs. The tender meat’s subtle flavor allows the sharp taste and thick texture of yoked grits to shine.
