Happy Thanksgiving

We are almost always open, but Houston’s will be closed tomorrow, Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 26. We wish all our readers and guests a happy family-and-friends celebration of blessing and prosperity, and look forward to the pleasure of seeing you soon thereafter.

Come in during the festive weekend for some restorative soup, or salad, or a quiet glass of wine. Did you know the term “restaurant” derives from the French restaurer — reconstituting, repairing, restoring, or fortifying the spirit –  and originally denoted a place to find nourishing food as a relief from over-rich home cooking?
