HORES050508 02 Houston Restaurant Week
17 restaurant in Houston, TX

by Meryl Pearlstein


They say everything is bigger in Texas, which may explain why Houston Restaurant Week runs a whopping three weeks. Continuing until August 21, diners at about 130 area restaurants can enjoy three- and four-course dinners for $35 per person (not including beverages, tax or gratuity). Participating restaurants pledge to donate $5 from each special dinner sold to the Houston Food Bank, which feeds a total of 137,000 Texans each week. Select restaurants will also offer two-course lunch menus for $20, donating $3 of each lunch sold to the charity. Participating restaurants include RDG + Bar Annie, 17, Gravitas, and Haven.


Established in 2003, Houston Restaurant Week has already raised $356,000. Reservations are required. For more information, visit www.houstonrestaurantweek.com.

One of the dining areas at Brennan’s of Houston

The good times are rolling once again at Brennan’s of Houston, which closed after a fire during Hurricane Ike in 2008. This staple of fine dining in Houston, and sister restaurant to New Orleans’ Commander’s Palace, underwent a 17-month renovation to re-create much of the original ambience of the historic building and re-opened for dinner service just in time for Mardi Gras.
