Houston’s 2024 Michelin-Starred and Bib Gourmand Restaurants, Mapped
"Nestled in Houston’s Museum of Fine Arts, this French restaurant joined its Miami and New York outposts in receiving a Michelin star. Le Jardinier, which means “the gardener,” takes notes from the seasons, with bright, whimsical dishes and refreshing drinks that reflect the possibilities of local produce. Find plates of burrata paired with pumpkin seeds, kabocha squash, and spiced poached apple; spiced duck a l’orange with turnip, confit kumquats, and treviso; and squid ink shellfish ravioli with lemongrass foam. Those looking for a more casual experience can opt for lunch service or dine at the bar, where Le Jardinier serves an unassumingly great gruyere cheeseburger alongside cumulous pommes dauphine." - Brittany Britto Garley
