From the OpenTable editors: When the MICHELIN Guide rolled into Texas in 2024, Hestia, from the famed Emmer & Rye Hospitality Group, scored a coveted Star. Locals have long known it's a gem. To start, a 20-foot grill crackles with live fire in the center of the charcoal-toned dining room, where you can do a 12-course tasting with dry-aged Texas wagyu or choose from a la carte options like scallop in beef tallow. Or keep things casual at the bar with a killer martini or a pick from the 400-bottle-strong wine list.

Executive chef: Kevin Fink

Fantastic evening. Staff were knowledgeable, friendly and helped make our anniversary special. They were able to accommodate a last minute change when our sitter fell through and we had to bring our daughter with us. They made all of us feel welcome and the food and wine pairing was outstanding. Thank you!

Not sure it’s worthy of a Michelin star. The service was ok, I had an empty water glass several times and had to ask for a refill. The server was pushy on ordering drinks and another main that we didn’t need. So I kind of felt fleeced. The steak bavette dish was undercooked for medium rare and not the sauce was not edible. That dish alone was $68.

Having followed the restaurant for years I was extremely excited to dine here for the first time. Well, I suppose I should have managed my expectations better. The experience was abysmal. First, the server. At first quite attentive until you state you’d opt to order your own option rather than the chef’s tasting menu. The salesman forward pushiness fades quickly into this “why are you even here” sort of energy. The food, well it was honestly extremely underwhelming and lacked any originality at times, then blew you away with another dish. Wildly inconsistent and hardly worthy of any Michelin experience I’ve encountered to date. The bread and cultured butter divine. The Wagyu tartare, a flavorless meat hockey puck with zero thought or taste. The scallops had amazing flavor but the texture of a shoe sole due to poor cooking temp. The Wagyu bavette steak came pre sliced WITH the grain and was room temperature and inedible. The halibut was insanely delicious. You really had no idea which way the food was going to go. That’s not a good thing here. So our experience was one where we had to ask other servers to find our server who apparently makes it a sport of hiding if you don’t order the chef’s tasting. Our food was over and under cooked, quite poorly executed and mediocre at best. The staff doesn’t care about your patronage. Only the margin purveyed from each guess. I have been a long time lurking fan who finally had a chance to dine and was so poorly disappointed. What a shameful experience. Run, do not walk away from this place.

Very nice, but not up to the standard of many other Michelin starred places we have enjoyed. Hard to imagine they will retain the star in 2026. We were seated promptly by a gracious host. However table placement in the dining room lacks intimacy. We were seated at a banquette 2-top which left us feeling far way from each other. We actually wound up scrunching together on the same side of the narrow table. The food was good but nothing had a wow factor. Single serving Tostada was yummy, but overpriced. The crudo was a bit chewy and bland and the scallops were tasty. The Wagyu ribeye was very nicely cooked, but arrived almost cold. The hot bread and butter may have been the best bite of the night. Overall service was attentive, however the dining room was so noisy hearing the description of each dish was a challenge. My biggest service gripe pertained to the sommelier. I requested wine assistance shortly after being seated and never saw her until after all of our appetizers had been served, and I had to ask a third time. Candidly not much help. Missed a big opportunity to upsell me on a much nicer wine than the one I would up selecting by default. So, there you have it. An okay, overpriced, underwhelming experience following great expectations. Too bad.

Been dying to check out Hestia & finally got a reservation far enough in advance to make it happen for our wedding anniversary. It did not disappoint. While there was a bit of a snafu with the Valet, the rest of the eve was a delcious delight. We loved the martini w/cavier & olives. The oysters, corn bites & peppers were perfect starters. But the Halibut & Dry Aged steak were the stars of the show. Incredible. Food is flawless and the service stellar. Wonderful dining experience!
