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.

    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.

    Lovely restaurant that is quiet enough to talk at your table. Excellent service. Classic French dishes as well as daily fish specials. The coq au vin was really good!

    Six of us ate here on a Monday night, which was a good night to be there--not too crowded and the noise level was very moderate. We were served generous cocktails. Several of us split the Dover Sole---which was excellent, maybe the best I have ever had. The wines by the glass were also very serviceable. Great time and great food was had by all.
