The Marigold Club

We had an absolutely amazing group of stunning, accomplished women from all walks of life at the @HoustonFoodFinder Sunday afternoon Merry Tea Time at @MarigoldClubHTX! 🫖 It was an honor to spend time with them and get to know them. More than one of us left lucrative positions to start our own businesses. 👸🏽 One runs a charitable arm of a major oil and gas company, and there was also the head of a luxury travel service, a retiree who loves going out and a professional matchmaker! 💘 Creating a place where people can get out and enjoy Houston’s top bars and restaurants, such as The Marigold Club, which was Michelin-recognized this year, is one of my favorite things. 🌼 My favorite parts were the tea service — our group tried three kinds — the Wagyu Pastrami tea sandwich (I could take down a full-sized one… rich and flavorful!), the mini scones (wonderful texture… some of the best I’ve ever had) and the little desserts. ☕️ 🥮 You can enjoy high tea at The Marigold Club Friday through Sunday from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Reservations are required. Thank you to the staff at The Marigold Club, owner/Master Sommelier @JuneRodil, and Bryan Gonzales and Sydney Prior of @GiantNoise for accommodating and helping coordinate our event. 🎉 #Houston #HoustonTX #HoustonFood #HoustonRestaurants #HoustonBars

🔥New date night must! Step into the world of @marigoldclubhtx, Houston’s newest and most vibrant destination for creative cocktails and French cuisine (through the lens of Mayfair London). Sip on craft cocktails that are almost too beautiful to drink, with edible flowers, herbs, and house-made mixers. Immerse yourself in their lush, tropical atmosphere, complete with greenery and colorful blooms. The wallpaper is one of a kind, it’s hand painted and gorgeous. The food was delicious and of course my favorite coarse of the evening was dessert! They have an ice cream cart and make your sundaes tableside. We started with beef tartare bites, gougeres cheese puffs, caviar toast, and salad. Entrees were steak and chicken (the chicken is a smaller portion) and we got crispy potatoes and mint peas as our sides. I don’t think I’ve ever ordered peas in a restaurant, but our waiter suggested them and I’m glad he did! The cocktails were a play on a vesper and an appletini. The piano was playing itself, but they do sometimes have a player. There’s an amazing private room they also use for overflow seating; definitely a great birthday party spot. I love how sexy and sophisticated this restaurant is. The waiters all wear white jackets and black bowties, this is the upscale date night you didn’t know you needed! _______________ #food #houston #htx #houstonfoodblogger #houstonnightlife #houstondatenight #upscaledining #finedining #livemusic #frenchfood #datenight #cocktails
