24 Essential Italian Restaurants in Houston

"Just steps away from Minute Maid Park, chef Danny Trace creates an Italian dining escape at Potente. Bedecked with chandeliers, this elegant restaurant serves up housemade pastas, alongside top-notch steaks and wild-caught seafood dishes on white-clothed tables. Try the spaghetti al tartufo nero, a fancy spin on cacio e pepe that includes black truffles, shaved table side — and named one of the best pastas in the country by Food Network." - Megha McSwain, Brittany Britto Garley
