Arturo's Uptown Italiano

1180 Uptown Park Blvd.
713.621.1180

From the owner's of Beso comes Arturo's. It looks like a Dallas restauarant. That is, it fits perfectly in Uptown Park's faux world. Everything looks just so perfect. It must have been done by an interior designer who buys posters for their colors rather than for their meaning. The decor will impress the same people who have magnificently designed rooms with no art on the walls save those purchased from a poster shop.

The food... Rekha had the ravioli. Dry. I had the seafood stew like dish. Fantastic. Full of flavor and seafood. They have a version with pasta, which I ordered. The waiter got it wrong and forgot the pasta. He tried to make it up by bringing out some angel-hair doused in olive oil. Really quite awful. But I'll come back for that dish and hope that the wait service gets better.

We found the food and service at Arturo's Uptown to be excellent and have no complaints. The decor is pleasant and it does not affect the taste of the food.

At a certain price level decor becomes important to me, but I know my taste in decor may differ from others. The dish I tried was fantastic, so I'll come back, but I expected a little more for the price and location.

I enjoyed the restaurant. I met the owners, Bill and Arturo. Good food. I had the sauteed shrimp fettuccine. It was excellent.
