The 22 Best Restaurants in Houston’s Montrose

"New to the Montrose neighborhood, Barcelona Wine Bar celebrates the beauty of the Catalonia region in a dark and lively space and features more than 400 wines by the bottle and dozens by the glass. Chef Thomas Laczynski has crafted a menu of tapas like patatas bravas in salsa brava and aioli, a fluffy potato and egg Spanish tortilla, jamon and manchego croquetas, and bacon-wrapped dates with blue cheese. A heartier alternative is the paella salvaje, which combines crispy bits of rice, rabbit meat, chorizo, escargot, and chickpeas. Always end with the warm, crowd-pleasing olive oil cake." - Brittany Britto Garley
