Hestia, named after the Greek goddess of the hearth, is a modern live-fire grill house. Dishes find inspiration from a custom 20-ft hearth which anchors the kitchen and dining room. Our menus offers an opportunity to explore and showcase techniques that highlight the role of fire in food. You may choose to order from our a la carte menu or experience our chef curated tasting menu.

We accept reservations 60 days in advance. For event inquiries, please visit our website.

2024 Michelin One Star

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Kevin Fink

From the OpenTable editors: When the MICHELIN Guide rolled into Texas in 2024, Hestia, from the famed Emmer & Rye Hospitality Group, scored a coveted Star. Locals have long known it's a gem. To start, a 20-foot grill crackles with live fire in the center of the charcoal-toned dining room, where you can do a 12-course tasting with dry-aged Texas wagyu or choose from a la carte options like scallop in beef tallow. Or keep it casual at the bar with a wagyu burger, and pair it with a killer martini or a pick from the 400-bottle-strong wine list.

    I will be thinking about this meal for some time to come - every bite was splendid. I can't imagine skipping the halibut main course - buttery and seasoned perfectly with little popping roe for bursts of flavor. I loved the tuna belly appetizer and ordered an extra basket of bread because it was just ridiculously good. Don't skip dessert!

    Rudy and Leah made our night fantastic, as well as the entirety of the Hestia Staff. The food was delicious, elevated, and not too out of our comfort zones, while delivering flavors and profiles we would never have thought of! One of our favorite dates yet and plan to come back.

    After cancellation and rescheduling we finally made our reservation and WOW…. We were blown away. Not only did they take care of us for having to reschedule our reservation but the whole entire staff was PHENOMENAL!! Every person that touched our table was incredible. I can rave all day about just the staff. Jackson and everyone on the team, kudos to each and everyone of you and thank you for making our experience so memorable. The food…. every dish that hit our table was out of this world!! I honestly don’t even know where to begin because I honestly think every dish in that restaurant will blow your mind. The halibut with caviar added on top was .. chef kiss!! Michelin Star service and food at its finest!! Thank you to the whole Hestia team for an incredible experience!! We will see you soon!!

    Hestia was great. We ordered quite a bit of food and almost everything was fantastic. Highlights were the oysters, caviar toast, scallops, and halibut. The crudo was also good, but not super special. The sirloin was probably our least favorite of the night - extremely salty and not very tender. I was also pretty underwhelmed by the two cocktails I tried. If I had it to do over, I would probably go for wine instead. Service was mostly good but a bit annoying and also slow at times.  Ambience was great. Overall a very good experience and definitely would go back.

    Loved!! Best service ever and the food was really great. The wine pairings were a little on the white side and would have preferred some more reds but that’s hardly a complaint!

    Hestia is a special restaurant. From the moment we walked in the door our experience began. The service is excellent. The menu is thoughtful and the food is creative and delicious. The cocktails are clever and wine list offered us perfect pairings to accompany our meal. Excellence indeed.
