The service here is great. The place has a good atmosphere. Feels similar to a restaurant in Philadelphia that I enjoyed visiting.

This was a fun place to stop by on a Friday night. The music selection is played from a piano and the band plays an array of music from pop, oldies, r&b, 80s, etc. You can write your request on the paper provided take to the band. If youre looking for a good time, definitely try them out.

Stopped in on a Monday I think. The service was very sociable and kind. The bill was decent. Atmosphere is similar to a place in Columbus I loved.

We simply hosted our vacation gathering here and it was an impact!! We worked with Ryley and her group, it was genius from start to finish. The culinary expert made some extraordinarily delightful dishes that intrigued our visitors.

Great place for live music and drinks! The band is very good!!! They play piano, drums, guitar, they dance, sing... the whole combo and is very fun! Great vibes for groups, the only disappointment was they don’t have Aperol Spritz.... hope they take care of that.

The ambiance was fun and lively with people on the dance floor throughout the time I spent there. Given that the band mostly played requests from the audience, I must commend them for showing some amazing talent. Piano bar is an accurate description. However, go there expecting to have a good dance as well.

We just had our holiday party here and it was a blast!! We worked with Ryley and her crew, it was pro from beginning to end. The chef made some incredibly delicious dishes that impressed our guests. The bartender designed us a custom, Instagram worthy drink that everyone loved. Then, to top it off they wrote us a song- it was hilarious and our team felt the love! I would highly recommend for any celebration or event!

It just happened right now. After 20 minutes wait outside in cold weather, we got in. Later on, an employee came and told us that we cant move freely inside of the bar and We had to stay in certain areas, come on bro !!! Its 2020 !!! I was so upset I would never go there again. I wish there is an option to give -star. Be respectful to costumers, that was an extremely disrespectful act towards us!

Had a blast with our friends. Our group had someone celebrating her birthday and she was having a great time! Music was lively and upbeat. Plus the drinks were reasonably priced.

Honestly? these people are great at what they do for the most part. But youre speeding up your tempo so much youre missing at least 30 seconds per song. We came to enjoy the music. And please, the right lyrics. Or at least dont repeat the first verse in place of the second verse. If you cant meet every request I get it, but damn. Play what youre meant to play.

Fun music, energetic musicians, polite crowd. We had a really fun birthday celebration here. Our plan was to spend 20 minutes or less and bar hop all of midtown. This was our 3rd stop and we did not want to leave. A really enjoyable experience.

Phenomenal: If I could leave a one word review I would. The manager is very concerned for your experience, but the staff, the staff is amazing. Our wait staff teleported drinks to us. We barely had to ask for service; yet it was there. Perfect birthday for my wife.

This place is a ton of fun! Great place to go with a group of music loving friends to have drinks and sing along loudly. Not all of their drinks are great, but we found some really yummy ones and you can always order standard bar drinks. They dont have food or small bites, but you can order and have food delivered to you there.

Great bar. When we went they had 1$ bud/budlight until 9pm, which was a superb deal, and the wait staff at the bar was very attentive. Moon also has live music, they have two pianos and everyone who contributed on the keys did a stellar job. Singing was great and the playing was great and created a very cool vibe. Next time Im in Houston Ill definitely be visiting again.

I had a really special birthday celebration and all thanks to this amazing place. I enjoyed every minute, every performance and every drink we ordered. We were able to get some food from other place through uber eats although the bar wasnt serving food at that time.

Theres nothing better than enjoying a night out drinking than pairing it with a live band. The live band cover some of the greatest hits of all time from different generations and genres. Its a great place to get groovy! Dont forget to try one of their signature buckets while youre there!

My friends and I love this place!! The piano players are all so funny and talented! The waitresses and bartenders are always so nice and friendly!! They are always packed but I love seeing everyone dance along with the duels. So much fun here!

Best Bar in Houston! I love this place and come often! From the crazy talented performers to the friendliest staff! I bring every one I can here and will continue to do so! They can literally play any type of music genre, all you have to do is ask! If you havent been here, do it. You are really missing out!Also, awesome drinks and bucket loads of them, literally.

Love this place! Really great piano bar but not the best if you want to chat. Music is amazing but if you want to have a conversation and not dance this is not the place.

No dueling pianos but rather performance synthesizers. It used to be amazing on its original conception. It was still fun but its becoming a bit over produced

Review №34

Not my place of preference im not too into the sing a long thing they got going on here and the bucket sized drink doesnt carry enough alcohol for what it costs. Save yourself the disappointment & go to specs down the street & buy a bottle.

Review №38

The performers were great. I attended with a group of ladies. It was my first time there so I didn’t know what to expect. There was an employee holiday party there along with us so there weren’t many people. Honestly, I just didn’t feel welcomed. Not sure if the lady was management or a waitress, but she seems irritated with my group. I won’t be back.

This place is a lot of fun, the music can be hit or miss, it depends on who is singing for the night. If you go a few times youll know who you like. Drinks are reasonably priced for midtown and the atmosphere is good. Location is great for bar hopping to others.

Review №41

Awesome dueling piano bar! Great atmosphere, great staff, great drinks and very live spot. I enjoyed my time here. Although you need to call ahead for a table because if not you will be standing but if you dont mind standing no worries. Theres never a cover so thats definitely a plus. Drinks are made pretty stiff which is always a great thing. Prices are a little high but what isnt in mid Town. Definitely a place to return to during there drink special hours! Will be returning.

Great place, with an amazing Vibe! Drinks are reasonable price! This place will stand out because it has a live band playing hit music! Great place to advertise, they have a mirror where you can put a happy birthday to follow me on IG. Place is well organized with a cheerful staff! Keep up the great job!

Fun chill place. Great drink specials. $1 16 Oz bud lights and $3.50 double wells with soda on Thursday nights. Jazz-fusion covers of every song you can think of. Most of them are singalongs so even if the music is a big obnoxious you can still enjoy it.

Great fun! The drinks were a little over the top expensive, but that may have been just a higher price for New Years Eve.

Review №46

Great bar in general, but the music needs to be turned down a tad. I feel like its struggling with its identity whether it is a club or a piano bar. Great mix tho, I loved my time, drinks were ok.

Review №52

I have yet to experience a bad time at this place. I’m sure it depends on the performers and every time I go with friends we enjoy the performance. A dueling piano bar that typically sing pop music with a twist. Great for groups! There’s plenty of space to dance and two bars. Drinks are good and quirky. They have silly straws and big bucket drinks for groups to share. Smoking available at the patio. Parking, I recommend by little Woodrow’s of Hadley. Definitely pay this place a visit, and bring a fun group.

I only eat veggies and they barely put any on my sandwich. I had to ask for some more spinach. It was good I barely had veggies on my sandwich because it tasted old. I gave it one star due to greeting me. Sandwich went into trash!

Came to this place by accident, stayed and hand the absolute best time!!! Drinks were great, the band was Phenomenal and our server Shane was attentive and super friendly. You can bring your own food in, buy drinks and enjoy the show Friday nights! I highly recommend this bar

Review №59

Lively and upbeat dueling pianos make for a really great evening! Lots of sing along and audience participation. I definitely recommend getting the reservation! It was worth it to be front row center stage and having a personal server instead of fighting the crowd to get to the bar for each drink! Our server, Shane, was very friendly and attentive for the entire 5 1/2 hours we were there!

ALWAYS a good show. The players there are crazy talented, and play like 3 instruments a piece. Someone who looked like a manager even did Gangster Paradise when I was there! Reasonably priced drinks, $1 beers on Thursdays too. Country, rap, pop, oldies and everything else, you wont be disappointed!

I love it, 90’s live music a lot of dance and beautiful songs. Wear 90’s costume and if they like it you’ll get free admission, I did i it and get in for free. I think this will be my new dance place.

Great vibe and fun music but be careful of your drinks bussers pick up whatever and apparently staff arent responsible for what they pick up. Even if its a $35 drink

Friendly piano bar with great music and great vibes. One dollar beers on Thursdays and some of the most relaxed friendly people every Friday and Saturday! Definitely worth a stop if you want some light dancing and lots of loud mingling!

Review №67

Fun place to go sing your heart out and dance! Big bonus points going to the absurdly long straws that i think are hilarious, the amazing band that gets so involved, and the PHOTO BOOTH. I try to stop by every night Im in midtown just for the amazing pictures honestly! And of course at least 1 drink and song

The songs are great and it was hilarious seeing the guys do their thing. My issue was the prices are not listed on their drink menu. 3 Sub-par cocktails does not equal $45 - the waitress didnt even bring a receipt.

Pretty cool crowd, service is great, drinks are kinda okay, one of the singers (guy with the beard) is great, the rest should stick to music instruments! Girl singer is way too loud, sings good, but way too loud! Overall good place to hang out with friends in.

This was my first visit to this establishment and I have to say it was absolutely awesome! I LOVED the atmosphere, the band, the drinks and ability to dance the night away. The band played music from the 70s to current and the balance between genres was seamless. I cant wait to revisit!

Cold weather forced us to change our outdoor plans to somewhere indoors. We wanted to try out a new place found Howl at the Moon as we browsed online. The placed was slightly different than we expected based on the website but my friend and I had a blast. The music was great. Our waitress was funny and kind. My friend said there was free food (i think brisket) before i arrived and she loved it. We both thought our mixed drinks were a bit watered down. But their shots were absolute perfection. The perfect place for a laid back night of fun.

Honest to God. Theres nothing really bad about this place other than it being a bit too loud. I guess what can I expect. But you would think that nailing the acoustics down is an essentiality.

Review №82

We really enjoyed our experience here.The drinks are awesome! And the performing group tonight was really fantastic. They are all very talented and all switched to other instruments. Its a VERY great place for some fun with live music.Other dueling pianos bars are a little bit more comical in that the performers make jokes and interact with the audience more. That is what I think is missing here. Other than that, we love it here.

I love coming to this bar, what a creative way for artists to perform. I love how they all know how to play different instruments. I wish they had more seating because it gets a little too crowded but still very entertaining.

Been to this establishment several times. You will find at least one thing you like here (music, drink special, raffles, photo booth, etc.) Let me point out that they have good security and is managed well by Matt. One of the times I went on a Friday, the male back baretender was very nice and personable as well. This is definitely a place to visit if you haven’t already but, most importantly a place to re-visit.

Review №95

Always have great times at this place! Love the piano dueling and their covers to favorite songs! There is always a groupon gift card available and their drink prices are good. Having events there are a good option because your party would get in for free and each guess may have two tickets for $1 drinks! The ambiance and location definitely made them a great spot.

Review №96

This is one of the beat bars I have ever been to. The crowd was very lively and the music was second to noneThey mixed up all kinds of genres back to back from ballads to hard rock to hip hop. The musicians were flawless in how they transitioned songs to one another and they did it in such a way that you would think the whole night was choreographed that way. Even though people requested songs all night.The drinks were decently priced so did not break the bank. There were no issues with keeping a tab at either bar.The best part was the wall behind the musicians that you could bid on and write anything down. It did get colorful at times :)There is also a patio for you smokers with a live view of the music.Im definitely going back

A Texas Dueling Piano Bar, located in Midtown, the nighttime heartbeat of Houston. Whether you are looking to party likes its 1999 or sit back and enjoy some wine and music, Howl at the Moon is the place to be. Howl offers both indoor and outdoor seating, duel full-service bars, and plenty of atmosphere. Staff is friendly and pleasantly interactive, drinks are moderately priced and well-poured, and there is usually room on the dance floor to shake your groove thang!Reservations are recommended for themed night celebrations. Enjoy!
