28 Iconic Houston Dishes You Should Try Before You Die

"Baked chicken in itself doesn’t always sound quite iconic but the reputation of the half-lemon roasted chicken at this Montrose restaurant certainly proceeds itself, thanks to its silky herb-loaded juices, the flavorful accompanying salsa verde, tenderness no matter the piece, and a baked lemon waiting to be squeezed all over. Pair it with the crispy potatoes, served with a side of velvety homemade aioli, for a meal that you’ll want to order over and over." - Brittany Britto Garley
