Houston Restaurant Guide

Strip House redefines the traditional steak house paradigm with its seductively clubby, contemporary atmosphere that appeals to both genders. The saucy mélange of sultry silks, rich leathers, rosy lighting and siren red walls adorned with rare photos of vintage burlesque stars from the original 1900s Studio Manasse collection – a throw back to the golden age of cinema and cabaret in 1920s Vienna. This seductive scarlet design, which plays double-entendre inherent with the name, was created by architectural visionary David Rockwell whose projects range from New York's swank and sexy W Hotels to the whimsical FAO Schwarz Toy Emporium and numerous Broadway musical stage sets.
Strip House’s menu is equally inventive and contemporary, where prime cuts of beef are charred to perfection in Chef John Schenk's kitchen. Strip House offers a sophisticated steak house menu designed to suit both steak lovers and adventurous diners. Signature steak dishes include the Double Cut Strip Steak, Veal T-Bone and Filet Mignon. Chef Schenk offers an array of distinctive side dishes that combine traditional cuisine with innovative interpretations of the basic comfort foods. Favorites include truffled cream spinach, goose fat potatoes, and, for a decadent dessert, the famed Strip House 24-Layer Chocolate Cake.
