Absinthe

609 Richmond

Houston, TX 77006

713-528-7575
Website

If you think you'll be able to quaff a couple of the notorious “green fairies” of van Gogh and Gauguin infamy before painting your masterpiece, you've got another drink coming. Housed in a former wash-and-fold launderette, this hard-to-locate brasserie is the picture of civility. An older, docile crowd inhabits this roomy, albeit occasionally packed venue. Surprisingly excellent homemade pizzas serve as a nice respite from the usual bar fare, and the clean tile floors and a tasteful decor add a touch of class to a ramshackle stretch of lower Richmond.

The Inside Word on Absinthe

Krissy

I love the cozy, lounge feel to Absinthe! The intimate setting and comfy couches make it perfect for a date. They have tons of tasty drinks made from the lounge's namesake liquor. But don't expect to see the green fairy, they only use legal absinthe, of course!
