The latter receives ecstatic plaudits from loyal customers who enjoy the rich wood décor and open-kitchen design, and know that a meal at Houston's begins with the spinach dip and a scotch or glass of red.

As one friend put it, "It was the most divine combination of fruit and nuts and crumbly topping and ice cream I have ever laid upon my tongue." That might be overdoing it (just a bit), but the dessert is good. The only downside: The restaurant... More »

    Take a quick walk through the museum-like produce wing of Central Market and you will notice a frightening thing: brussels sprouts. The terror stems not so much from the sprouts themselves, which, in addition to liver, take top billing in most chi... More »

    Delicious place. Pricey but so good. I usually get the steak sandwich. The fries are the really skinny kind.
