About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for fine wines
The owners of Étoile Cuisine et Bar, Chef Philippe Verpiand and Monica Bui, have created an inviting, warm European environment where both traditional and seasonal French food are front and center. "We want to dispel the notion that French food is heavy and pretentious," says the team, recently transplanted to Houston from San Diego, where they owned the famed Cavaillon Restaurant. Everything about Étoile Cuisine et Bar, from the inviting outside facade to the intriguing interior design to the high quality service, is meant to convey a feeling of truly being in France. With Chef Philippe's take on a seasonal menu using a French technique, it's a place where fine food lovers come together, not on a special occasion, but to enjoy every day.

    Service was impeccable as always. Probably the best lobster bisque anywhere. Chunks of lobster, smooth & rich. And the crème brûlée was out of this world!

    Very busy for Easter brunch - full house. Great fixed menu, and our food was excellent, as usual. Service was somewhat stressed, but still pleasant and personable. Our favorite French restaurant in Houston.
