Cuisine: American BBQ

Description & Atmosphere
When you get that craving for BBQ, Houston's is the place to go. Thanks again, Dave and Hope, for your great restaurant recommendation. Apparently, you're not alone...just ask singing sensation Christina Aguilera — it's her favorite place in the world!

Houston's is a fun place to go after work for drinks, appetizers and people-watching. The restaurant has a long U-shaped bar, an open kitchen, dining booths and tables along the windows. In addition to the outdoor patio seating, there's also an intimate bar area outside with tables and a fireplace.

Food
Houston's awesome "Knife and Fork" Barbecue Ribs are so tender, the meat literally falls off the bones. The BBQ Ribs are served with a generous portion of skinny French Fries and cole slaw — the fries alone are worth the trip!

Indulge in the thick and creamy "Chcago Style" Spinach Dip appetizer, served with a plateful of tortilla chips.

The Hamburgers are good too — we like the Texas Burger (served on Saturdays only) with Firehouse Chili, cheddar cheese and chopped onions.

A "healthy" standout, the "Hacked" Chicken Salad is another popular entree. And the Chilled Asparagus — offered seasonally as a vege side dish — is sensational. It comes drizzled with olive oil and topped with hard-boiled eggs and breadcrumbs.
