Houston Dining
 
I work for a PR agency and am looking for a fun, family restaurant in Houston, TX for a press trip that I am planning. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Statia Sep 10th, 2002 11:37 AM

Dave & Buster's maybe? If it's still open.

Birraporetti's, Ninfa's or a Pappas chain restaurant.

Chuys for mexican, Good Company for barbeque

It took until the last post for someone not be an idiot. I second Chuys and Good Company. Churrascos is fantastic as well.

Goode Company on Kirby

Here's another idea.<BR>Buca Di Beppo. Decent italian, group friendly, fun atmosphere.<BR>Goode Co, Ninfa's, Dave & Buster's or Jillian's, Pappa's & Chuy's all good choices for family fun.

I suggest The Potato Patch on FM 1960. It is fun because while you wait to order & get your food, servers come around & give you free food like fried green tomatoes, muffins & rolls. They will call out "Que Paso" & gently toss you a roll. It is fun & kids love it. It has a decent restaurant look but the service makes it fun.<BR><BR>We will be over that way in Oct for the Renaissance Fest & will be sure to stop in.

If Kids are young (under 6) try Lupe Tortilla.

Emily: Chuy's on Westheimer is a fun, fairly inexpensive Mexican restaurant that has very high quality food. Another good restaurant that serves good food for adults and is kid-friendly is the Raven Grill on Bissonnet. (I don't know if you would call it "fun", but it will have food that both adults and kids will enjoy.
