Description

Eighty selections of hot and cold tapas are served family-style; order according to the number in your group. Favorites include shrimp in lemon-garlic olive oil, manchego-stuffed chicken breast and pork tenderloin in wild mushroom-thyme-sherry sauce. A few entrées are there for those who never learned to share, but a better alternative to tapas would be to sample from the extensive paella menu.

  • 2007 | Best Calamari

    The menu at Mi Luna tapas restaurant in the Village has no shortage of things to choose from. It's helpful to have a glass of sangria in hand before even trying to make a decision. On this impressive list, there are two calamari dishes, one fried and one grilled. The fried calamari comes with a spicy tomato sauce that has a hint of cumin, and it's perfectly fine, but the grilled calamares a la plancha are outstanding. Served on a bed of greens and drizzled with roasted-garlic vinaigrette,... More »

  • 2005 | Best Tapas

    In a town rife with excellent Mexican food, it's almost too easy to overlook tapas. Well, ignore no more, because Mi Luna brings the Espana with panache to spare. Order a variety of the smaller, affordable dishes like the cheese plate or the pulpa a la vinagreta (marinated octopus in a sherry vinaigrette) and share them around your table for the fullest tapas experience. Or else get one of the elaborate larger entrees like the pasta con mariscos (angel-hair with shrimp, scallops and mussels... More »

  • 2000 | Best Place for a First Date

    Dating is like ordering tapas: You try a whole bunch of different things and you hope you get something you like that agrees with you and doesn't make you sick. Mi Luna is a fun "first date" -- it's like a fancy mall food court, because you each can get whatever you want, from baby clams and poached salmon to stuffed zucchini and veal tongue. (We recommend the B'Stilla, a Moroccan chicken pie with cinnamon almonds wrapped in crisp phyllo dough. It sounds like a bad idea, but you'll like it.)... More »

    Stirred and Shaken

    By Robb Walsh | Thu, December 07, 2000

    One wall of Mi Luna [2441 University Boulevard, (713)520-5025] is lined with booths, each partially obscured by a pointed Arabic arch. On the sound system, a fiery flamenco guitarist is pounding out a tune of passion. We sit at the copper bar and ... More »

    I love going after work for a glass of wine and a light dinner with friends. Best tapas place in Houston.

    A really good cheap date locale. Romantic (although often very crowded and loud), frequent live music, small portions but low prices and high delicious factor. Unique dishes, too.
