4 Review-Worthy Restaurants in Houston, TX 

1. Crawfish & Noodles

Houston’s captured the moniker of Culinary Capital of the South because it offers such a diversity of cuisines and fusions fit for every taste. This fusion of Vietnamese and Cajun foods embodies unique and flavorful Houston eats in full. The star attraction is the Vietcajun: a mild to spicy (your pick) serving of boiled crawfish brimming with mouth-watering ingredients like chile pepper and garlic butter.

If you’re not wild about crawfish, plenty of options on the menu will still tempt your tastebuds, such as stir-fried beef and stir-fried blue crab. You’ll enjoy a fun and festive atmosphere while you await the culinary masterpieces of a James Beard Award-nominated chef at this 11360 Bellair Blvd. location.

2. Xochi and Ninfa’s

The brainchild of famed culinary talent Chef Hugo Ortega, this must-do downtown destination in nestled inside the Mariott Marquis hotel at 1777 Walker St. Suite A. If you’re salivating for Mexican fine dining with a twist, your search is over. Everything’s crafted in-house, from the masa to the mole, and the Oaxacan-inspired dishes are often infused with flavors you won’t soon forget, from grasshoppers to suckling pig.

Customer favorites are in abundance, including Tamal de Huitlacoche and sopa de piedra. Top off your memorable meal with a decadent dessert of churros with chocolate. If you desire more of a Tex-Mex flair, stop on over at Ninfa’s on 2704 Navigation Blvd., going strong for five decades and proud birthplace of American fajitas.

3. Theodore Rex and Lankford’s

For a more casual or community-based dining experience, visit these two smaller locales that pack a mighty punch. At Theodore Rex (1302 Nance St.), you can reserve or (if you’re lucky) walk in and dine at one of the 30-plus cozy tables. Local ingredients (especially farm-fresh offerings) are emphasized. Plus, the seasonal nature of the menu ensures that you won’t soon run out of options.

Former grocery store Lankford’s of 88 Dennis St. has secured its legacy as the go-to for casual diners craving the good, old-fashioned allure of mom-and-pop diner food.

4. Brenner’s 

Fine dining’s never been better at this 1 Birdsall St. steakhouse that’s been satisfying appetites for world-class steak and seafood for several decades. You’ll leave with smiles from the exceptional customer service and a full album of food selfies: wood-grilled oysters, turtle soup, prime steaks cooked precisely to your preference, a prix fixe brunch, or so much more.

Have a fine dining night out in a ride that’s creme de la creme. The grand master of large luxury SUVs, the Lincoln Navigator, pulls out all the stops with hands-free highway driving, premium 3D audio, and the ultra-ritzy Black Label styling.
