Restaurants at Discovery Green®
Along with its many other features and amenities, Discovery Green offers its visitors two dining options: The Lake House and The Grove.
The Grove
The Grove restaurant offers an exciting urban dining experience unlike anything else in downtown Houston. Ideally located on the south end of Discovery Green near the Brown Foundation Promenade, this refined-dining establishment offers a one-of-a-kind setting for gatherings of all sizes and types. The Grove is the definitive see-and-be-seen culinary hotspot in Houston’s urban core and has redefined downtown dining since opening in January 2008.

The restaurant also happens to be among the most eco-friendly places in all of Houston. Not only is The Grove home to its very own rooftop herb and tomato garden, but it also uses eco-friendly materials made from corn, sugarcane or coconut fiber; recycles all paper, plastics, and cardboard within its walls. Furthermore, the cuisine itself reflects a commitment to locality and sustainability, utilizing a variety of Texas farms, cheese makers and Gulf Coast fisheries.
