Etoile Houston

A true 5 star dining experience! The food, service, and vibe was absolutely perfect. The mushroom ravioli was outstanding and delicious! (And I hate eating mushrooms!) I would make it a must stop for anyone living here or coming into town.

This is one of my favorite places in Houston for upscale French dining. The French waiter that I always seem to get is very helpful and often points out better choices. For example, it's elected a wine and he noted that what they have their for that varietal is actually fairly sweet. Most recently I had the lobster bisque which was excellent and the steak au poivre. The steak was perfectly cooked in. The sauce was excellent. The description of the portilla au chocolate didn't sound as interesting as the waiters. He sold me on it and I'm glad because it was excellent... An ooey gooey lump of melted dark chocolate in a very light pastry. That, with a little port, was an excellent and to a wonderful meal.

Great food and service here. We got a variety of dishes: the ravioli, both foie dishes, the bisque, the coq au vin, and the sole. Our favorites were the sole and the ravioli. The foies were also pretty good. I thought the coq au vin lacked flavor and the ravioli was too runny vs my expectation of a creamy substance. All in all a good experience though
