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.

    We visited Etoile for a birthday. The front staff, the server (Matteo) and table staff were all very attentive and polite. Food was prompt and delicious! The Dover sole was fantastic. The desserts, apple tart and crème brûlée, were scrumptious. Definitely plan on returning.

    Our food was excellent. Duck confit was done perfectly with crisp skin. The lobster bisque was delicious.
