As Houston Restaurant Weeks 2025 kicks off, nearly 40 restaurants from Montgomery County are joining hundreds of others across the region to offer brunch, lunch, and dinner deals through September 1—all for a good cause.

Houston’s largest culinary fundraiser is now a regional celebration, with nearly 40 restaurants in Montgomery County participating in Houston Restaurant Weeks 2025, offering prix-fixe dining options through September 1.
The event promotes Greater Houston's culinary growth and generates money for the nation's largest food bank, the Houston Food Bank.
Montgomery County's diversified culinary industry is shining from The Woodlands to Conroe, Shenandoah, and beyond. Black Walnut Café, located near the Conroe-North Houston Regional Airport, serves sophisticated American cuisine with a runway view, showcasing Houston's suburban dining culture.
Citizens Grill and Good Charlie's Oyster Bar serve Southern cuisine and fresh Gulf seafood in the fast-growing FM 1488 area, while Salt Grass Steakhouse, Thai Cottage, and Nona's Italian Grill offer a variety of options.
Babin's Seafood House serves Cajun classics, Johnny's Italian Steakhouse serves Italian-inspired food, and Sal E Brasa Brazilian Steakhouse serves lunch and dinner in a rodizio-style setting.
At Houston Restaurant Weeks, The Woodlands leads Montgomery County, boasting high-end restaurants such as Perry's Steakhouse & Grille, Morton's Steakhouse, Amrina, Phat Eatery, and the newly opened Kokoro Handroll Bar. Other favorites are Amerigo's, State Fare Kitchen & Bar, Fielding's, Kirby's, and Del Frisco's.
The late Cleverley Stone initiated the event in 2003, and it has generated millions for the Houston Food Bank while also supporting local restaurants during August's traditionally quiet season. Diners can enjoy a $25 breakfast or lunch, or a $39 to $55 dinner, while supporting a vital cause.

Federal officials temporarily shut down air traffic at El Paso International Airport after the Pentagon allowed Customs and Border Protection to deploy an anti-drone laser near Fort Bliss, according to two people familiar with the matter.

Houston has already recorded six 80-degree days in 2026, and forecasters expect more this week as a February heat ridge pushes temperatures 15 degrees above normal. While daily records are unlikely to fall, highs could approach longstanding marks set in the 1960s.
