Peruse Westheimer and you’re bound to find a decadent dish to please the taste buds of even the harshest critic.

Underbelly

Underbelly has won national recognition and is a true treat to Montrose. Chef Chris Shepherd redefines Southern Creole, shaping the flavor of Houston and earning himself the ‘Best Chef Southwest’ title at the 2014 Beard awards (the equivalent of the Oscars in the food world). Not only does Underbelly offer a delicious menu of farm-raised meat and by-catch seafood, they also have an extensive wine list that pairs perfectly with any entrée.

Hugo’s

Mexican cuisine has a lot of competition, especially with the influence of Tex-Mex. Hugo’s far outweighs the competition by offering upscale, authentic Mexican food that is unchanged yet refined by Executive Chef Hugo Ortega. Since 2002, Hugo’s has been setting the bar for Mexican cuisine and not just in Montrose. Don’t miss happy hour Monday through Friday from 2pm-6pm, when ‘Y Porque No’ margaritas, sangria of the day and classic mojitos are only five dollars.
