Rainbow Lodge

Rainbow Lodge, opened in 1977, is a historic restaurant that has received local, regional, and national acclaim for its menu and wine cellar. The restaurant is located in a sophisticated log cabin setting along the banks of White Oak Bayou in the heart of Houston.

The 100+-year-old log cabin is a comfortable yet refined setting for succulent wild game, including elk, bison, venison, antelope, duck, and quail. But they don’t stop at the game. Seafood and steaks are a big part of their menu, including beef rib eye, filet of beef, braised short ribs, jumbo lump crab, rainbow trout, lobster, and, of course, Gulf shrimp.

Two on-site kitchen gardens help complete the menu inspired by their seasonal harvest, local ranches, and growers.

The restaurant serves lunch, dinner and Sunday brunch. Enjoy crafted cocktails and the bar menu available all day at the Tied Fly Bar or on the patio with fabulous views. Happy Hour: Tuesday through Friday, 4:00 to 7:00 pm.

Don't miss their Monthly Wine Tasting! This fun and educational happy hour event is a self-paced walk-around wine tasting that showcases three premium wines from a specific winery or region. And as a special bonus, a representative from the winery or region will be on hand to answer any questions you might have about the wines. Each prepaid ticket gets one person two tasting portions of each wine and two tasting portions of each of the paired small bites. You’ll also have the opportunity to purchase these wines at a discount.
