Best Margaritas in Houston | Eater Houston

"At Candente, margaritas come in two sizes, but trust that you won’t regret going for the larger one. There’s plenty to choose from, including an excellent premium mezcal margarita made with Ilegal reposado. The Paloma Margarita, made with blanco tequila, Aperol, agave, and lime and grapefruit juices, is another refreshing option." - Marcy de Luna

The Best Tex-Mex Restaurants in Houston | Eater Houston

"A new addition to the Michelin Guide, Candente showcases Mexican cuisine with a Texas barbecue twist, using smoked and grilled proteins from its sister restaurant, The Pit Room. In addition to traditional Tex-Mex items, find brisket enchiladas, brisket-topped nachos, and ceviche made with redfish, shrimp, and scallops. The Tampiquena is a signature dish, featuring a 9-ounce prime rib-eye topped with two cheese enchiladas, grilled onions, and chili-lime butter. Pair your meal with a margarita in flavors like blood orange, strawberry, mango, and prickly pear." - Brianna Griff

The Best New Brunch Restaurants in Houston, April 2025 | Eater Houston

"Thanks to its nearby sister restaurant, the Pit Room barbecue joint, Candente excels in Tex-Mex dishes made with smoked meats. Brunch, held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on weekends, gets the breakfast treatment, with mesquite-flamed skirt steak and eggs and tacos filled with slow-cooked barbacoa. For something more traditional, go for the pancakes, which are loaded with a perfect combination of cinnamon sugar, butter, and syrup." - Brittany Britto Garley
