da Gama Canteen

Indian, Portuguese · Bib

Portuguese and Indian flavors live in harmony at da Gama Canteen, located in Houston Heights. Named after the Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama, this restaurant from Chefs Shiva and Rick Di Virgilio draws inspiration from the Portuguese Indian territories of Goa, East Africa and Portugal. Expect a tapas-style menu displaying a fascinating fusion of the two cultures with bold and vibrant flavors. Must-orders include chana masala, or braised chickpeas and potatoes served with basmati rice, and beef mishkaki, an East African-style marinated beef tenderloin with fried yuca, kachumber and raita.

Killen's

American, Southern · Bib

Ronnie Killen’s Heights hit is the wrong place to count calories or dabble with salads. Quite the opposite, this Southern standout is an all-or-nothing celebration honoring his grandmother. Sharing is encouraged here, where meals should begin with their spiced jalapeño cornbread skillet or grilled oysters with harissa spiced topping. Buttermilk fried chicken with a pot of creamy mashed potatoes delights at lunch, while all of the barbecue favorites like brisket, ribs and turkey, are here too. This is comfort food that rings familiar, satisfies with ease and all but demands for a nap once you’v

Truth BBQ

Barbecue · Bib

Although the acclaimed original location in Brenham is little more than a roadside shack, this Houston Heights sequel from owner and pitmaster Leonard Botello IV is a gleaming model of modern efficiency. Fortunately, the cooking still has plenty of soul, and all your favorites are here, with succulent brisket, juicy turkey and smashburgers, plus house-made sausages that require arriving early to avoid missing out. Sides like collards, beans and corn pudding—or even the more rarified tater tot casserole with fried onions— might even be the highlight, offering the flavorful, rib-sticking quality

This Vietnamese-inspired restaurant in Houston’s Autry Park is elegant without ever feeling over the top. The dining room is bright and airy, with lots of white, soft cream and beige tones, cozy booths and large tables.This is an elevated but approachable menu threaded with French influences. The portions lean large, making it an ideal place to bring a date or a group of friends. A salad of Thai mango and chilled shrimp is a refreshing start before savory dishes like shaking filet mignon or pan-fried branzino. Served whole over a bed of vegetables, it's served with a classic nước chấm sauce fo

Creative, Mediterranean Cuisine · ★ Michelin

$$$$

This ambitious atelier sets its sights on a culinary exploration of the Mediterranean, studiously delving into individual regions one by one, from the Maghreb in Northwest Africa to Murcia and Andalusia in Southern Spain, to Greece, with a tasting menu and beverage program inspired by each cuisine in turn. But if all that sounds a bit precious, rest assured that the experience itself is utterly disarming, with a winning sense of hospitality that makes for a meal that is both engaging and luxe. Guests start with finely tuned cocktails and first bites in the stylish lounge area before being whis

Pinkerton's Barbecue

Barbecue · Bib

Barbecue competition is steep in these parts, but in just a few short years, pitmaster Grant Pinkerton, who once lived above the restaurant, has made a name for himself. The number of deer heads mounted on the walls of this low-slung joint makes you wonder whether beef is really on the menu, but indeed it is. Everyone starts with the hulking beef rib, which often sells out before midday, and thick, melting slabs of prime-grade brisket cooked over mesquite and oak. Like all good barbecue, neither piece wants for sauce. Not to be outdone are the brilliantly tender St. Louis-style ribs, which are

Casaema

Mexican · Bib

From popular bakery pop-up to a brick and mortar in the Houston Heights, this daytime restaurant can do no wrong. Celebrating Mexican traditions and quality coffee, the menu is finely curated and endlessly tempting. We suggest working backwards to make the most of your appetite: Flaky, guava-queso empanadas and the famous horchata cream doughnut are essential desserts that sell out early. Chilaquiles built on superb tortilla chips and tender chunks of brisket is one of many worthy entrees. Heirloom corn is a point of pride here, exemplified by one very large tetela stuffed with mushroom-carrot

Rosie Cannonball

Contemporary, Italian · Bib

The name and the flavors alike are punchy at this inviting Montrose favorite, with stylish design and cool, laid-back charm. As an opening volley in a barrage of hospitality, guests are welcomed with a splash of bubbles when they sit, perhaps as an enticement to explore the rest of the impressive wine list. All this is icing on the cake for a crowd-pleasing menu that focuses on a wood-fired oven, from a zingy salad of charred beans to a crisp, gooey focaccia di recco filled with robiola cheese and mortadella—not to mention praiseworthy pizzas and pastas. Speaking of dessert, a meal here is sca
