Favorite Houston Restaurant Returns

This September a new restaurant, Bistro Alex will be opening its doors to Houston.  Fans of Brennan's of Houston can now rejoice, as the new restaurant will be a mixture of Brennan's signature Texas creole and classy fine dining.  Opening under Alex Brennan-Martin, this new eatery will be a treat for those who have a taste for Louisiana creole cuisine mixed with Texas flavor.

Fans of Brennan's of Houston mourned its loss when it went under due to a fire during the hurricane of September 2008.  Its rich history of over 40 years of culinary excellence has built quite a following in Texas.  Given its history and anticipation, the news of its resurrection in the form of Bistro Alex is definitely something to talk about.

Bistro Alex's opening will coincide with the opening for Hotel Sorella this fall.  The new restaurant will seat 160 in a space of 4,000 square feet and will be open for lunch, dinner, and Sunday brunch.  Hungry patrons can enter the restaurant through Hotel Sorella's lobby or through Cafe Rose, directly below.

The new design is being completed by The Johnson Studio, the same company responsible for Fearing's in Dallas.  It will compliment the sophisticated look of the hotel while maintaining its own feel, sticking with a natural color palette of brown, blue and green, giving an inspirational nod to nature.

While classic dishes are certainly on the menu, the creative entrees, wine and exquisite cuisine are what people come for. Pricing for food is on par with Brennan's, and Brennan-Martin promises there will be great value in both menu and wine pricing. Look forward to seeing Bistro Alex opening this fall along with Hotel Sorella.
