Delicious dining options for fall and patio weather on KPRC! Three places with exceptional patios you’ll want to make the most of right now. Picks for Italian, Vietnamese and a shuck shack on the waterfront!
Marvino’s
Everything’s made fresh with amore at this Italian Kitchen in Cypress. We brought a few standouts from the enormous the Marvino Lasagna a la Bolognese, as well as the Chicken Marvino – sautéed chicken breast topped with Gulf shrimp in a white wine sauce.
Wine pairings:
Joseph Carr Chardonnay for the chicken, and perhaps my wine find of the year from H-E-B, the exquisite Piccini Chianti blend for only $7.98!
Le Colonial
Classic Vietnamese with French accents in River Oaks. This upscale restaurant really captures the spirit and romance of French colonial Southeast Asia in the 1920’s. Such a cool place!
Wine Pairings: Both the snapper and salmon pair well with a Grüner Veltliner.
Nick’s Fish Dive & Oyster Bar
Situated in the heart of The Woodlands Waterway. Rustic, wharf-style décor with a raw seafood bar!
Wine Pairings: Cava with our piping hot paella or ceviche.
