Antonio’s Flying Pizza 3 User Reviews
2920 Hillcroft Italian $ Galleria  
For Italian-American classics like spaghetti and meatballs, sausage-and-pepper sandwiches, cheese pizzas and calzones, you can’t beat Antonio’s. It doesn’t just look like an East Coast red-checkered tablecloth pizzeria, it really is one. Owner Antonio Rosa threw pizzas in Connecticut and New Jersey before he moved to Houston and... More>>
Arcodoro Ristorante Italiano Write a Review
5000 Westheimer Italian $$, $$$ Galleria  
One of the most popular restaurants in the Galleria neighborhood, Arcodoro is famous for the best authentic Sardinian cuisine in the nation, exotic frozen cocktails and a hopping late-night singles scene. More>>
Armandos 1 User Reviews
2630 Westheimer Tex-Mex $$$ Lower Shepherd-Kirby  
The quintessential River Oaks culinary experience, a slightly stuffy and ornately-decorated dinner house with excellent, overpriced Tex-Mex served on white linen tablecloths. More>>
Bistro Provence 1 User Reviews
13616 Memorial French $$$ Outer Loop - SW  
One of Houston’s oldest and most authentic French restaurants serving Provencal cuisine with wood oven pizzas and seafood specialties as well as French classics like escargot, duck confit and rabbit stew. The outstanding wine list is all French. More>>
Bob's Steak & Chop House Write a Review
1801 Post Oak Blvd. Steak House $$$$ Galleria  
The USDA wet-aged prime steaks are served with your choice of potatoes and Bob’s signature giant carrot. If they don’t have the best steaks in town, they sure have the wildest atmosphere. Splitting a monster porterhouse is the best deal for two. More>>
Brasserie Max and Julie Write a Review
4315 Montrose Blvd. French $$$ Montrose  
Spectacular fruits de mer platters, and French classics like onion soup, pate and escargot lead the list of attractions at this temple of old-fashioned French cooking. Crusty bread, simple wines and French draft beer round out the authentic experience. More>>
Cafe Annie 1 User Reviews
1728 Post Oak Blvd. Southwestern $$$ Galleria  
Legendary Southwestern chef Robert Del Grande is good at making you wonder, "How'd he do that?" His black-bean terrine looks like a slice of terrine but is far too soft to be cooked and cut out of any sort of a mold. Don't miss the quail with foie gras butter or the lamb chops with jalapeño mint salsa. The rabbit enchiladas with red chile... More>>
Catalan Food & Wine Bar Write a Review
5555 Washington St. Spanish $$ Heights  
An awesome selection of reasonably priced wines and an eclectic menu of Mediterranean-inflected foods make this stylish eatery easy to love -- especially if you are partial to crispy pork and eggs. More>>
Da Marco 3 User Reviews
1520 Westheimer Italian, Pizza $$, $$$ Montrose  
You'll get the best pizza and pasta dishes in the city at this intimate and unassuming little Montrose restaurant. And you'll also find cutting-edge fare such as tuna tartare salad and an appetizer of cold lamb's-tongue slices served with the Tuscan mustard-brined fruits known as mostarda . Some of the unusual varieties of fish, such as the... More>>
Damian's Cucina Italiana 1 User Reviews
3011 Smith St. Italian $$ Montrose  
This is undoubtedly one of the city’s finest and most authentic Italian restaurants. It feels like a little piece of Tuscany right here in Houston. This white tablecloth, fine-dining restaurant has long-term, knowledgeable waiters. The cold antipasto misto plate is always worth trying. Fresh pasta dishes abound, and whether it’s a... More>>
Danton's Gulf Coast Seafood Kitchen Write a Review
4611 Montrose Blvd. Seafood $$ Montrose  
Danton’s is one of the best Gulf seafood restaurants in town. Sit in the oyster bar during the winter and get a couple of dozen on the half shell. Try the lump crab salad in the summer. And no matter what time of year it is, don’t miss the wonderful gumbo. More>>
Doneraki Authentic Mexican Restaurant 1 User Reviews
Gulfgate Center Mexican, Tex-Mex $ Outer Loop - SE  
Tastefully decorated with saltillo tile floors and a huge copy of a Diego Rivera mural, this is one of the best-looking Tex-Mex restaurants in town. Like all classic Tex-Mex operations, Doneraki claims its chips and hot sauce, chile con queso, fajitas and cheese-stuffed jalapeños are "authentic Mexican." Bless their hearts. More>>
Fung's Kitchen Write a Review
7320 Southwest Fwy. Chinese $$ Outer Loop - SW  
Chef and owner Hoi Fung, a Hong Kong transplant, is from a family of serious chefs. The menu lists 400-plus items, including seafood selections from six aquariums in the front of the room. The menu is sophisticated, as are the customers. A mundane-sounding dish like scallops with garlic turns out to be made from live scallops, quick-steamed and... More>>
Gilhooley's Raw Bar 1 User Reviews
222 Ninth St. American, Seafood $ Outside Houston  
The ramshackle patio is overgrown with vegetation, the interior is all worn woodwork and old furniture, and the rafters seem to be held together by the license plates that cover them. Children are forbidden here, no doubt in part because of some risqué artwork. But it's the menu that will really amaze you. Gilhooley's Raw Bar may be the... More>>
Goode Co. Seafood Write a Review
10211 Katy Fwy. Seafood $$, $$$ Outer Loop - NW  
See Kirby-Med Center-West U More>>
Gravitas Write a Review
807 Taft American, New American $$$ River Oaks  
This hip Montrose eatery owned by award-winning chef Scott Tycer, who also owns Aries and Kraftsmen Bakery, describes itself as an American bistro. Entrées such as roasted chicken with corn bread and braised beef Burgundy are among the best upscale comfort food dishes in the city. More>>
Indika 2 User Reviews
516 Westheimer Indian / Pakistani $$$ Montrose  
This may be the best Indian restaurant in the country. What makes Anita Jaisinghani's food great is that it's not only among the most creative takes on Indian cuisine in America, it's also muy picante when it's supposed to be. In New York and San Francisco, innovative Indian chefs have to please wimpy local tastes. But here in... More>>
Lankford Grocery and Market 1 User Reviews
88 Dennis St. American, Breakfast, Tex-Mex $, $$ Montrose  
Run by head cook and surrogate mother Eydie Prior, Lankford's may be the homiest restaurant in the city. The enormous breakfasts, with perfect eggs and homemade hash browns, are just like Mom used to make. Eydie's kitschy decorations change seasonally. Her grandkids often sit at the bar and watch cartoons. Lankford's really was a grocery when... More>>
Le Viet Restaurant & Bar Write a Review
11328 Westheimer Vietnamese $$ Outer Loop - SW  
This is a clean, well-lit place for Anglo-friendly Vietnamese food. Try the oversized Vietnamese crepe and one of the winter, spring, summer or fall rolls. More>>
Magnolia Bar & Grill Write a Review
6000 Richmond Ave. Cajun / Creole $$, $$$ Galleria  
The Magnolia Bar & Grill opened in 1983 during Houston's Cajun restaurant boom. And it's one of the last restaurants of that era that still serves authentic Cajun food. The gumbo has a spicy bite, and the fish is incredibly fresh. It's also a great place for oysters on the half shell and boiled crawfish. More>>
Masa Sushi Write a Review
977 NASA Pkwy. Sushi $$ Clear Lake  
Most of the menu here is designed to appeal to mainstream tastes. But Chef Michael deserves a lot of credit for bringing innovative "new-style sashimi" items to serious sushi fans in the NASA neighborhood. More>>
Max's Wine Dive Write a Review
4720 Washington Eclectic $$ Montrose  
Max’s Wine Dive owes its unusual name to the combination of a terrific Texas “dive” menu with chili dogs, cheese fries and mussels steamed in Lone Star beer, and an innovative wine list that’s light years ahead of the rest of the city. It’s also a popular place for hip Heightsians to see and be seen. More>>
Reef 1 User Reviews
2600 Travis St. New American $$$ Montrose  
Chef Byran Caswell is reeling them in with his imaginative new take on Gulf seafood. The interior is cool but not lavish, the waitstaff wears blue jeans, and the bar menu includes the trendy little hamburgers called sliders; all of which gives this fine dining establishment a relaxed vibe. And while it’s not cheap, it’s a better deal... More>>
Strip House Write a Review
1200 McKinney Steak House $$$$ Downtown-Midtown  
The Strip House has some of the best steaks in the city. And the sides are nothing short of spectacular. Don’t miss the truffled creamed spinach or the potatoes cooked in goose fat. Sure, there are risqué pictures of naked women all over the walls, but it’s tongue-in-cheek, so you don’t have to feel guilty about telling... More>>
Sushi Jin Write a Review
14670 Memorial Dr. Japanese, Sushi $$ Outer Loop - SW  
The fish is incredibly fresh because Sushi Jin flies it in from the Tokyo Fish Market. Try to go on Tuesdays through Saturdays, when the fish is at its freshest. Purists will want to sit at the sushi bar and order from one of the Japanese sushi chefs. More>>
