Le Jardinier Reviews
Wow just wow! Very nice romantic place in Houston that I honestly would like to go back to try everything on the menu. The food was excellent along with the presentation. The staff was superb and very elegant.
One of the best in Houston
Beautiful atmosphere both inside and outside. Service was good, waiters were knowledgeable regarding dishes. Food was very unique and dining experience is long unless you request a faster service. It was nice experience the level of cuisine, however, it is very specific. I will not be back but glad I tried.

Le Jardinier is a top-notch fine dining restaurant located in the Houston area, perfect for special occasions. The earthy color palette and olive green accents create a relaxing atmosphere that welcomes guests warmly. From the moment guests enter, they are greeted by an amazing team of hosts and the restaurant manager, ensuring a smooth transition to their table in an exceedingly clean and meticulously crafted environment. The service is exceptional, with servers going above and beyond to provide a great dining experience. The restaurant offers both valet and self-parking options, with the possibility of validating the parking ticket at the end of the meal.
The seasonal tasting menu remains a popular choice, featuring standout dishes like the perfectly cooked Wagyu Bavette Au and the refreshing yuzu mousse dessert. While some dishes, such as the Grilled Spanish octopus, may lack a "wow" factor, others like the foie gras appetizer, seafood ravioli, and Atlantic cod entrée are sure to impress. Guests have complimented the beautiful plating and excellent flavors, especially during events like Houston Restaurant Week 2025, where the lunch menu showcased impressive presentation and taste.
Though the Noguchi Garden Fizz - Haru cocktail may be a bit plain, the extensive wine list offers great options to pair with meals. Some diners have enjoyed the wait between courses, allowing them to savor each dish without feeling overly full. However, experiences with desserts have varied; some found the pistachio ice cream sweet, while others praised the apple swirl and tangerine vegan dream. Overall, Le Jardinier provides a fantastic culinary experience that combines art, culture, and world-class hospitality, making it a favorite spot that many guests are eager to revisit.
