Ibiza Food & Wine Bar
Now in its 15th year, critically acclaimed Ibiza continues to wow guests with its chef-driven menu. Its party-like atmosphere has crowds filling tables at lunch and dinner. Chef Charles Clark and his team are front and center and the bustling open kitchen provides the show. The rustic – “pot to plate” approach to cooking comes from travel. A thread of Spanish tastes and “Southern” influence whether from his coastal Louisiana childhood to southern France, the Mediterranean and Southeast Asia gives the menu a bold flavor profile. The deep wine list at Ibiza easily started the trend of affordable global wines. www.ibizafoodandwinebar.com

Brasserie 19
With its crisp white interior and gorgeous table-hopping crowd, Brasserie 19 is the most see and be seen restaurant in Houston. The high-octane ambience is fueled by one of the city’s best wine lists – an unconventional approach to pricing that has every table topped with a bottle. Where Rose’s are d’ rigeur during the hot summer months and serious reds are quaffed by the River Oaks crowd that likes classic brasserie style French food. Plateaux de Fruits de Mer, Frisee Salad topped poached egg and lardon, Steak Frites and the sautéed Dover Sole in a beurre noisette remain the perennial favorites. www.brasserie19.com

Coppa Osteria
Coppa Osteria is the perfect paring of food and lifestyle, taking its personality from the affluent, family centric West University, Southampton, Rice and Museum District neighborhoods. Its clientele is an eclectic mix of professionals, university academics and young families – who all seem to know one another. The Dough Room takes center stage – and is where all the energy starts for the handmade pastas and dough for pizza made daily. Chef Brandi Key’s Neapolitan inspired pizzas are some of the most popular items on the menu – the Coppa “Ham & Eggs” and Carnissima are crowd favorites. Diners also flock for the Bistecca alla Florentina, Burrata Pomodoro and Steamed Mussels with a white wine & garlic broth that begs to be soaked up with crisp garlic toast. A large outdoor patio is the ideal meeting place for an after-work aperitivo. A window-side pizza by the slice serves patrons in this pedestrian-friendly neighborhood. And a well-priced and extensive wine list and lively bar scene make for the perfect night out.
