"Sister to tasting menu restaurant March and the more casual Rosie Cannonball, this stunning new French restaurant by Goodnight Hospitality falls somewhere in between. Those looking for a more laidback experience can dine at its bar, where expertly made iced cold martinis, drinks tailored to the diner’s palate, and chilled seafood from its nearby raw bar are a given. The dining room, however, is a fun place to take in all Marigold has to offer — the luxurious decor and a menu filled with standouts, including the duck Wellington, the Fish Not Chips, an assortment of fried scallops, oysters, shrimp, and green beans; and a delicate ricotta gnudi. Finish with the ice cream sundae, which is built in front of you with fun and fancy toppings like banana jam." - Brianna Griff
"Fox Fox Studios transforms the former location of Goodnight Charlie’s into Goodnight Hospitality’s latest treasure. The inside of this 4,600-square-foot Montrose restaurant, which serves French-American cuisine, is striking, with green velvet ceilings, plush banquettes, and custom artwork curated by Houston-based art expert Illa Gaunt. A hand-painted mural by Pauline de Roussy de Sales and Murano glass chandeliers add to its charm, making for the perfect backdrop for Marigold’s signature martinis and its menu of French-American dishes like ricotta gnudi, Kaluga caviar toast, and duck Wellington." - Marcy de Luna
"This new Goodnight Hospitality restaurant launches its brunch on Saturday, November 23, featuring various dishes that merge French-American cuisine with a London flair. Diners with a sweet tooth can savor dishes like chocolate brioche filled with Earl Grey crème diplomat, grilled banana bread served with chantilly cream and caramelized cocoa nibs, and its Figgy Toffee Scone, a hybrid of the British sticky toffee pudding and figgy pudding. The menu also features savory options, like French omelets, Croque Madame made with wagyu pastrami, and beef tartare dressed with anchovy aioli and served on sourdough English muffins. Stick your pinky up while sipping on cocktails like the Pink Slipper, a combination of Bonanto, cognac, grapefruit, lemon, and egg white, or the red wine-based Queen Charlotte Punch, which is blended with spiced pear, lemon, orange, and raspberry. Mimosas and Bloody Marys are also on offer." - Brittany Britto Garley
"The marriage of ice-cold martinis and the Marigold Club is logical — such an understated but impactful cocktail is well-suited for this lavish jewel box of a restaurant. The French restaurant provides six meticulously crafted martinis, including its signature Marigold martini, which honors gin by balancing Hendricks, Tanqueray 10, and Sipsmith with Dolin Dry vermouth. For vodka enthusiasts, there’s the Mayfair martini with Belvedere Smogory Forest and Reyka. The more adventurous drinker may choose the Forbidden Fruit, an apple brandy martini brightened with lime. Pair with some oysters and seafood from the raw bar, or sit for a full meal with dishes like its standout duck Wellington." - Brianna Griff
"Goodnight Hospitality and chef Austin Waiter playfully fuse French, American, and English culture and cooking at this new Montrose restaurant. Start with an ice-cold martini or a glass of bubbly from its extensive drinks menu. The Kaluga Caviar sandwiches and the pate (made with cherry mostarda, frisée, pistachio, and pain de champagne) are enough to hold you over before digging into essential dishes like the duck Wellington or the roasted lamb loin. No experience here is complete without a dessert from its bespoke sundae cart." - Brittany Britto Garley
