• Tex-Mex • Heights / Washington

Bienvenidos, y'all! Inspired by long days on the Gulf, late nights on the ranch and the colorful creations of our abuela, our family's Kitchen & Cantina showcases the rich foods and traditions we grew up with on both sides of the border. Nothing matches the flavor of food grilled over mesquite. Try wood-fired Texas quail swaddled in homemade tortillas, jalapeno rellanos stuffed with house-made chorizo and sizzling, family-style parrilladas - huge mixed platters of wild game and fresh vegetables, topped with pico de gallo and queso fresco - a unique spin on Houston barbeque. Our days begin roasting chilies and tomatoes, rolling fresh tortillas in our bakery and wringing every last drop of Ruby Red grapefruit for cocktails. We hand-grind our own sausage and hand-trim every ounce of meat in our butchery, then anoint it with the savory seasonings and marinades we've honed over generations. A few margaritas on our patio and you've found your new casa sweet casa.

    Spectacular AS ALWAYS at Chama. I worked as a Fed and lived and worked in our embassies in South America Have been in every country in S.A. and I developed a love for churrasquerias from Brasilia, to Rio, La Paz, Cochabamba, Bogota, Quito, B.A., you name it and my favorite of all was Antofagasta. That said, once back in Houston I initially raced to a competitor (Fogo) many years ago. The quality there in the early years was excellent but became progressively worse…particularly server attitude and food quality. It added up to, at best, maybe a three. After my last trip to Fogo, I swore I wouldn’t return to their 66 destinations in the U.S. And so for Chama Gaucho, I ate there tonight….third time in a month. Ten star food, ten star service: Extraordinary salad bar with UNLIMITED shrimp and salmon…(want more? You can get many more helpings) and the endless meat servers arrive at your table along with the endless question: “ Clean plate sir?” You will SATISFIED & thankful that your meal and environment was: Well worth the price. Eat there tomorrow and you will thank me later.

    We had tickets for the Nutcracker and decided to make the evening nostalgic and have dinner at Birraporetti’s. We were pleasantly surprised. We hadn’t dined here in DECADES. I had the chicken piccata and my husband had the tenderloin medallions with shrimp. My chicken was so tender, flavorful and the sauce was lemony and rich. Perfect! My husband’s beef was fork tender, shrimp were excellent and the fettuccine was to die for. Our server was terrific. Polite, friendly and oh so prompt.

    I’ve eaten here for lunch several times. It’s always delicious! It’s a wonderful menu, but I keep returning to some of the same things. The salmon salad, the salmon club, and the brie and pear panini. All delicious. A nice cocktail menu is a plus for celebrating.  I also love the quiet atmosphere, outdoor dining option, small size, and very easy parking.
