The Best Dinner Date Spots in Houston
Choose a part of Houston that works for both people before choosing the venue. The guides range from central neighborhoods to west and southwest Houston, so a single good stop is a better starting point than a packed itinerary.
Dinner works best when the format feels comfortable for both people. These five restaurants offer different ways to make an evening of it. Look at the current menu together, agree on a budget and check the reservation options before setting a time; the guide is a starting point, not a booking service.
This selection includes Brenner's on the Bayou, State of Grace, Rainbow Lodge, Potente and Winsome Prime. Use the map and practical details below to pick the one that fits your date.

Love this concept!
Best dating app I’ve seen. Very excited to use it. Also-didn’t know my phone could vibrate like that, that onboarding video was AWESOME. 10/10
Ok so I did not trust this app at all, but my girlfriends put me onto it and now I am going on a third date with the greatest guy who I am falling for!
