From Marcus Davis and the family that introduced Houston to an all-time foodie favorite, The Breakfast Klub, comes a take on Carribean-Southern cuisine with Kulture. Dubbed “an urban komfort kitchen,” the restaurant explores food, spirits, art and music through cultural contributions of the African diaspora, including Caribbean and Southern items, in a casually-elevated, yet comfortable dining atmosphere.

At this stylish Montrose restaurant, chef-owner Ryan Lachaine blends elements of his Canadian upbringing, Ukranian heritage, and the modern Gulf Coast cuisine he learned during stints at Underbelly and Reef into Riel's focused, eclectic menu. While it’s an unlikely sounding mix, Lachaine and his team have crammed a lot of interesting ideas into the food being served at this stylish, 65-seat restaurant — among them the instant-classic hanger steak with potato and cheese pierogi, yellowfin tuna crudo, and mushroom empanadas. The kitchen adds innovative new dishes all the time (like this summer's butter burgers), which rewards frequent visits, and the front-of-house staff always welcomes diners with a smile.

The restaurant that revealed Houstonians' love for trout roe — via the signature Nancy cakes — remains a favorite of Houston's restaurant community, thanks to chef Jason Vaughan's eclectic menu, front of house specialist Sean Jensen's beverage program, and the stylish interior. The room has an unmistakable vibe that just feels good, and even familiar-sounding dishes like lamb tartare and grilled chicken soar, thanks to their precise execution. Pastry chef Julia Doran's breads and desserts are similarly can't-miss.

The high-style, high-concept Austin import has been considered to be one of the city’s finest restaurants since it burst onto Houston’s dining scene in 2012. The food, which blends Japanese flavors with French techniques and a few Texas twists, is always both beautiful and delicious. Meticulously trained servers know the menu front to back, which gives them the ability to guide diners through elaborate, impromptu tastings. The combination of high-quality food and a welcoming atmosphere make Uchi a whole that’s greater than the sum of its parts, which helps explain its continued popularity. Uchi's daily happy hour remains a popular way to experience the restaurant at a reduced price; that's why people line up for it every afternoon.

Featured on TV shows like Ugly Delicious and The Zimmern List, this Chinatown restaurant serves the city's finest Viet-Cajun crawfish. Chef-owner Trong Nguyen has attracted other national attention, including a couple of James Beard Award semifinalist nominations for Best Chef: Southwest. Even when crawfish aren't in season, the diverse menu of boiled, grilled, stir-fried, and deep-fried seafood, plus fusion dishes like Vietnamese chicken salad, chicken wings, and turkey neck, make this restaurant worth visiting year-round.

Houstonians of a certain age will trade stories about seeing Mama Ninfa Laurenzo in the dining room of her eponymous restaurant, but even the restaurant credited with popularizing fajitas can't rest on its reputation. Under the direction of executive chef Alex Padilla and the ownership of Legacy Restaurants, Ninfa's has expanded its dining rooms, upgraded its kitchen with a wood-burning grill and oven, and even improved its parking. Yes, the fajitas, queso, and margaritas remain best in class, but it's Padilla's specials that really set the restaurant apart from other Tex-Mex restaurants. Breaking with tradition to order limited-time items like wood-roasted octopus or lamb barbacoa yields big rewards. While the Laurenzo family has moved on to the growing El Tiempo chain, the original Ninfa's on Navigation remains a special place with a unique vibe. Credit that to the staff, many of whom have been there for years.
