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.

Such an amazing experience. The food was the star of the show and the cocktails were amazing to boot. They definitely earned their Michelin star with the level of quality and creativity in creating their dishes. Best steak tartar I think I ever had. The mushrooms blew our minds. And the uni bread pudding bite was incredible. Rudy was a delight as well. Kudos all around!

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.
