About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for fine wines
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.

    Very good food, waiter very friendly and atmosphere was cozy. Small restaurant so expect to sit close to other diners. Reasonable price for the quality of food.

    Great service and great food. It's nice to be in a quiet and elegant environment like this one. I love the brie, apple sandwich with arugula. it's a great place for fish as well.

    Etoile is one of our 3 favorite restaurants, always excellent. Something common to top places is experienced, competent waiters and waitresses who enjoy working there, and chefs that take pride in delivering consistently well prepared food. We didn't have our favorite waiter Didier, depends on seating area, but the waiter was at the top of his game.
