Here, the American dishes have a European influence—flatbread pizza topped with ham and manchego, eggplant "fries," quiches, seafood, salads, and cassoulet. Felt-like clouds cover one wall (custom art by two French brothers) to alleviate noise levels in the large, light-filled space with polished floors and gallery-white walls, where the crowd is steady and a mix of fashionable locals and museum visitors. There is a cask wine program and the beer is local to Houston and Austin.

A modern chic restaurant next to a world class art gallery. Its large windows provide views to beautiful open spaces and public art. The wine and daily selections are not to miss.

Perfect place to eat after the museum, still new and very well patroned

Great Happy Hour at the bar, especially on Thursdays when the museums are open until 9 p.m. Dinner menu is a little pricey.

The Menil isn't just for art, they can cook too!
