BeauSoleil — Restaurant in Houston

An Epic Birthday Celebration & Culinary Delight! From the moment we stepped into BeauSoleil HTX in Houston, we knew we were in for something special. Our recent birthday celebration for one of our girlfriends was, in a word, epic, and a huge part of that was thanks to the impeccable service and truly exceptional French-American cuisine with a Cajun flair. Our server, Jeremiah, deserves a standing ovation. He was an absolute delight – attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about every dish, and possessed a wonderful, friendly demeanor that made us feel right at home. Jeremiah expertly guided us through the menu, offering insightful recommendations that proved to be spot on, and he was always there with a smile to ensure our glasses were full and our spirits were high. His service truly elevated our entire dining experience. Now, let's talk about the food, because BeauSoleil HTX delivered on every single front: We started with oysters, and they were a revelation. Fresh, briny, and perfectly chilled, each oyster was a taste of the Gulf, demonstrating the restaurant's commitment to high-quality seafood. We tried both the raw on the half shell and the Baked Oysters de BeauSoleil, and both were absolute perfection – the baked oysters with their spinach, parmesan, and crispy prosciutto topping were a decadent treat. The crab cakes were another highlight. These weren't your average filler-heavy crab cakes; these were packed with succulent, sweet lump crabmeat, lightly seasoned to let the natural flavors shine. Served with a delicate sauce that complemented rather than overwhelmed, they were a testament to classic preparation done flawlessly. The duck confit was simply divine. Tender, crispy-skinned, and rich with flavor, it was a masterclass in French culinary technique. The accompanying orange sauce and candied kumquats provided a perfect balance of sweetness and tang, cutting through the richness beautifully. A truly memorable dish that left us all wanting more. While we didn't indulge in "Cohen feet" (it seems there might have been a playful misremembering of a dish name or a fun inside joke amongst you girls!), the scallops we did share were utterly exquisite. Perfectly seared to a golden crust with a tender, melt-in-your-mouth interior, they were a testament to the kitchen's precision. Each scallop was plump and sweet, showcasing the freshness of the seafood. We loved how they were presented, a visual as well as a culinary treat. Every dish was clearly prepared with passion and skill, from the thoughtfully sourced ingredients to the artful presentation. The ambiance of BeauSoleil HTX is also worth noting – it's elegant yet approachable, creating the perfect atmosphere for a special occasion where laughter and good conversation can flow freely. For a simply for an outstanding meal in Houston, BeauSoleil HTX is an absolute must-visit. With phenomenal food, a beautiful setting, and the incredible service of Jeremiah, it's an experience we won't soon forget. We're already planning our next visit!...

This is one of the most exceptional restaurants I have had the pleasure dining in Houston.

I had an anniversary dinner Friday night, we had a reservation for 9:30 and we were running a bit late so I was worried the kitchen would be closed since the kitchen would be close at 10pm. Despite being 10 minutes late, the service and kitchen staff was phenomenal. I don’t think I have anything bad to say about Beausoleil, truly I wish we had known about this sooner.

We ordered the bread service and snow crab claw special for appetizer, and we also received baked oysters as complement from the restaurant. That snow crab claw special was divine, the lobster bisque sauce was amazing and I hope at some point they could consider making it a permanent menu item! Bread was well toasted and seasoned, the bone marrow butter was so savory and hit the right fatty and salty notes. Oysters were also very delicious.

For main entrees, we got the duck breast and rack of lamb. The lamb was great, but the DUCK was truly the best part of our meal in my opinion. I have never tried duck like this in Houston, this was cooked so perfectly medium and the sauces and sides paired so well. It truly took me back to France.

We also got dessert, but unfortunately we did not get pictures, they were also to die for. We ordered the Crepe Suzette, and we also got a chocolate mousse as another complement from the restaurant. These were the perfect amount of sweetness without feeling bad. I would guarantee recommend anyone to get these two desserts.

Honestly, the restaurant staff and kitchen staff made our first dining experience at Beausoleil, a memorable one. We’re very grateful to our scottish server, whom we have forgotten your name, and the entire kitchen and bar staff for being so hospitable.

May y’all continue to be more successful in the coming years! Very happy to have another gem in the...

We celebrated my husband’s birthday here last night, and wow what an incredible experience! The service was truly 5-star. Every staff member was warm, attentive, and took the time to walk us through the menu in detail. As a special touch, they even surprised us with champagne to celebrate his birthday, which made the evening feel extra memorable.

Every dish we ordered was absolutely spectacular. My husband is still raving about the lamb, and I tried escargot for the very first time and it was so delicious I wanted to drink the sauce (though I restrained myself!).

Beyond the food, I loved the thoughtful details: the beautiful floral china and elegant glassware added such a timeless, classy feel. The atmosphere struck the perfect balance too. Some guests were dressed up while others were casual, which gave it both a neighborhood charm and a special-occasion vibe. We especially love that it’s within walking distance for us, making it feel like such a gift to have this gem in our own neighborhood.

If I had one small note, it would be that the tablecloths could use a quick steam to smooth out the fold lines but honestly, that’s such a minor detail in an otherwise perfect evening.

We’re still talking about how much we loved everything, and we can’t wait to come back sooner...
