"Matthew and Ryan Poli have taken their talents to Wedgewood Houston with a 70-seat dining room that’s laser-focused on inventive Italian cuisine. Which is to say, expect the unexpected. An open kitchen allows guests to watch as the chefs prepare housemade brioche garlic bread with whipped cheese, confit chicken thigh ravioli, and lumache with Maine peekytoe crab, sea urchin butter, Japanese red chiles, yuzu, and roasted seaweed. Gluten-free pasta is also available as a substitute for most dishes. The restaurant recently launched an in-house market where guests can take home the restaurant’s handmade pastas and sauces to make at home. —JGJ" - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones, Ellen Fort
