At this charming Montrose restaurant, the dishes are classically gourmet, often complicated and carefully presented. The salads are enough to convert even the most rabid hater of verdure, and the bisque de homard (lobster soup) could go in the Larousse Gastronomique as the definition of perfection.

Humble Oil founder W.W. Fondren never imagined his 1923 home would become one of the finest little luxury hotels in the world. But hey, this is Houston; we could have torn it down.
