We tried the Chef's Choice menu and it was ok. The presentation was very nice but nothing I ate made me think, "Wow, this is delicious!". The diane sauce was a bit too salty. The wait staff was wonderful but, overall, I was disappointed with the flavors of the food and appearance of the restaurant. read more

Excellent food great service and a great place for a night out on a he town. I would recommend this place to everyone

Dinner last night was another fantastic experience at this northside gem. We can't say enough about the quality, the creativity, the atmosphere, the consistency, the service... everything that makes up a great restaurant. If there's a better restaurant in Houston, we haven't found it. read more

Dining at Chez Nous is a must if you are in the area . Their food is divine ! I enjoyed a cocktail they made specifically to my liking, sampled fine meats and cheeses as an appetizer, feasted on duckling breast , duck confit with Shepard's pie and finished with my personals highlight, a chocolate soufflé. They freshly prepared it to order , cut it in front of me at the table and poured the vanilla sauce in it . The staff was on point which made the whole experience perfect. read more

Great place for a special occasion. I enjoyed the food but it's crazy expensive! Enjoy!

Definition of a hidden gem! Chez Nous translates to "our house" in French, and the name couldn't be more fitting. Reading up on the history of the place, I learned that the founder/chef actually used to live with his family on the opposite end of the structure. While it's true this is a fine dining establishment, it still has the feeling that you are somewhere in southern France dining as a guest in a chef's home. 5/5 stars for the ambiance. Service: very attentive and classic. When your food arrives, the service staff prepare the plates and put them on the table in front of the lucky patrons so that their respective plates all land on the table at the same time. Our waters never got less than half full and the servers were all helpful with any questions. 5/5 Food: the star of the show. Normally when I go to a restaurant, I can usually decide within 2 minutes what I want to have. Even though I studied the menu before I arrived, this is one of a few places where I could just not decide what I wanted to have. And to clarify, it wasn't because nothing peaked my interest; but rather, there are just too many delicious sounding options to settle on one. The only way to resolve this problem is I will have to return in the future to satisfy my curiosity. As for what I did get, I opted to begin with the escargot. Six come to an order, and the mollusks are served in a delicious garlic butter sauce. Very good. For my entrée, again, I was torn what to get, but decided I was at a classic French restaurant, so I should try the duck. It was perfectly cooked and came with a shepherd's pie and a poached pear. The pear was delicious, but I thought the shepherd's pie was just ok (another French potato would probably have been more appropriate), but understand I am splitting hairs here: I still cleaned my plate. My girlfriend got the scallops and in addition to being the largest scallops I have ever seen, they were perfectly seared, and the risotto they were served over was creamy and delicious. Even though I don't have much of a sweet tooth, Stacy's dessert cart was phenomenal. When I do indulge, I love coffee flavored desserts, so we ended up splitting a chocolate cake that had an espresso filling and some berry reductions for balance. Absolute perfect ending to our meal. 5/5 Value: Since I've already written an essay, I'll make this short. While this place isn't cheap, if it were inside the loop, it would probably costs twice as much. The quality of food and attention to detail definitely justifies the price making it an excellent value: 5/5 Bon appetite read more

Great food. Great service. Unique setting We've been going here for over 20 years and have never been disappointed read more

Decent food. Not what I heard it would be. Old. Outdated. Neighborhood threw me...service ok. Was expecting a lot.

A five-star restaurant fortunately right here in the Humble/Atascocita area. World class cuisine! Super friendly staff. The old house and homey decor provide a charming and elegant backdrop. Great place for any celebration or occasion. read more

The parking was something out of my worst nightmare but o wouldn't dare take away a star for such an insignificant annoyance, the food made up for it. Everything was delicious and the staff was everything. If I had to pick a menu favorite, it would have to be the escargot, c'est bon. read more

Chez Nous - Duckling with poached pear and shepherd's pie. - French Near Me - Humble, Texas

We had such a great experience at Chez Nous I would most definitely recommend this place to friends/clients. We came as guests of friends that were celebrating whom have also frequented this restaurant for well over ten years. We trusted their recommendation of doing the chef's table and boy were we so pleased we did. Every course was delicious, perfectly portioned, and exciting to try. Out of all 5 courses there was only one plate that did not blow us away (a chicken ravioli and only because the filling was a bit dry). The service and ambience was top notch. We had so much fun trying new things that we would love to visit again for special occasions. If you can, the chef's table is definitely the way to go. read more

The last time we were there was 5 years ago for our anniversary. This year we returned for the same reason. The place looks the same and parking is still limited. While there we met a couple who were celebrating their 61st anniversary. We definitely have a long way to catch up to them,...but I digress. For some reason my wife ordered the same dish as before, duck. According to her it was a little bland. As for me, I was set on the teres major steak (if you don't know , it is from the scapula) but the waiter sold me on the pork ribeye. I have to say the waiter was very knowledgeable. However, the pork ribeye was salty and this comes from a guy who likes salty food. My pork ribeye came with barley risotto, baby carrots and green beans. The risotto was good but it reminded me the years after communist took over South Vietnam where we had to eat boiled barleys on a daily basis instead of rice. I haven't touched barley since we left Vietnam until now(sorry for the digression again). Overall, dinner was good. Oh I forgot, the Manhattan was very good. Kudos to the bartender. We will return again, may be sooner than 5 years. read more

Chez Nous - Decor - French Near Me - Humble, Texas

Dinner on Dec 6th 2023. We were disappointed in our whole experience. The best thing was having dinner with old friends. We have been coming to Chez Nous for over 20 years of celebrations or just a good night out. This was by far our worst experience. We hope this was just a bad night. It started very normally, then the appetizers came out very slowly. We are not sure what happened but at one point they brought one to a member of our party and then took it away. When they finally arrived some things in the crab tower seemed different from times past. The soups were just ok and they are usually exceptional. Our bottle of wine was delivered and no offer to taste, just open and pour. The wait between the appetizers and the entre was very long. When the entries arrived, the potatoes were cold and dry, the green beans were just warm and tasteless, and the carrots were tasty but just warm. Usually, these things are fantastic and perfect. The meat itself was tough for a tenderloin and a little overdone. Usually, the tenderloin here melts in your mouth. The sauce bearnaise was so cold it would not pour out of the container. The servers never asked how things were. Desert was seasonal cheesecake, sorbet, crème Brulé. I made the reservation for one birthday but the other couple that joined us had a birthday to celebrate also. We made this clear at seating. The original birthday showed up with a candle, but the other did not. We also had coffee which was served without a spoon, and I used my fork to stir it. For the most part, our whole table felt ignored and or forgotten. No offer to package up the rest of a second bottle of wine for us to take. The food and service were not up to what we know Chez Nous for. I would typically highly recommend this place for any dinner or celebration. But I can NOT recommend Chez Nous after the service and food last night. There is a lot of work to do and a lot better places in Houston to spend your money if you want excellent food and service. I sincerely hope things get fixed. read more

This. Place. Is. Amazing! We picked it on a whim by searching "fancy restaurants near Kingwood". When we arrived it looked like a quaint building, but when you walk inside you are taken into an intimate setting with old style furnishings. The wait staff is attentive and very polite. It felt like being in an episode of Downton Abbey. The food was all spectacular. I can't say enough about it! You could tell that it was prepared specifically for you and not mass produced. Definitely a place worth going on a date night to experience an amazing evening. read more

We went last Friday for my husband's bday. We were so excited to have an elegant fine dining experience with French cuisine. What a disappointment over $400 later. We had escargot and crab tower for apps. Escargot was delicious. Crab tower just average. But the first disappointment was the cheap looking clear glass plate we were given to eat on. We also had rock hard rolls. The service was extremely slow, so that gave us plenty time to look around. It's a quaint place, but is in desperate need of updates. Antique chandeliers on a dimmer would be a nice touch instead of regular old ceiling fans. The light level was bright. Not romantic in the least. The chairs and benches need updated fabric just to boost the ambiance. Candles on the table would be nice as well. We ordered the chateaubriand for two. It came with steamed veggies and potato purée. The meat was perfectly cooked. But we had to watch as our waitress literally butchered it to plate it. I also watched as she did the same on a rack of lamb chops at the table next to us. Really took down the experience with a lame Vegas-like showman serving trick to wow. It didn't. All in all, we give the food 3.5-4 and the ambiance a 3. Definitely won't be driving almost an hour from the Woodlands and spending that much for that experience again. We should have gone into the city. Oh and when they brought us the bill, they had a marketing card for their prepared meals. And another one when they brought the check back for us to tip and pay. Really classy - not! read more

Bravo Chef Stacy Crowe-Simonson!!! I honestly did not know what to expect. This restaurant is located in this little quaint unassuming neighborhood of Humble. First off Humble??? What? I was thinking the same thing, how can this restaurant in Humble have such good reviews and why is it better than the many French places in Houston?! Well this place proved me wrong on so many levels. The ambiance!!! Yes, it's in a house but once you walk in, it's like I was transformed to an old restaurant in France. From the wine wall, the lighting, the table setting to the wall paper and the lamps, and the candle holders and armoire - it just eluded sophistication without trying. I was joking with my bf that it felt like the interior of the beasts' castle in Beauty and the Beast cause of the armoie, the clock, the candle holders, etc. My bf hates fancy restaurants but this one was different, it was relaxed, yet sophisticated at the same time. Definitely not at all stiff and sterile. It was comfortable and homey - lots of places try to get this right but this place nailed it. The food, the service and the ambiance were just perfection! We were celebrating a late Valentine's day and I'm so glad we came here - it was definitely worth the drive. For food, we ordered: *Escargot de Bourgogne - burgundy snails in shallot, garlic and herb butter. Never had I had such large snails in any of the restaurants in Houston. The snails were plump and garlicky and delicious. Seasoned perfectly. *Seared Fresh Foie Gras with carmelized apple, berries and honey vinegar gastrique - the foie gras is rich and decadent, like it suppose to be. But when you serve it on toast with the berries and fruit, it was the perfect bite of flavors. *Fresh Blue Crab, Mango, Avocado and Tomato Tower - I loved loved loved how fresh this was. Amazing flavors and I liked how cold it was served and how it stayed cold through the whole dish. Details ladies and gents - they nailed it on this particular detail. *Roasted Rack of Young New Zealand Lamb with Dijon-Rosemary Crust and Port-Shallot Reduction - doesn't even taste gamey or like lamb. The meat was tender little lollipops, cut table-side for presentation and comes with the most perfect reduction. It also comes with garlicky mash potatoes, green beans, spaghetti squash and carrots (both candied). Loved the mash potatoes so much! *Filet Mignon, 10oz - there is a selection of 5 or 6 different sauces. My bf got his with a peppercorn sauce. The steak itself was tender and cooked perfectly, the bf said it didn't need a sauce but I know how the French love their sauces. He devoured this and it came with the same sides above. Can't ever go wrong with a filet mignon! *Chocolate Souffle - this has to be made to order and they were quick to honor the request, even though we were here well past closing. The souffle was a bit too sweet and I couldn't taste the chocolate but it was light and fluffy. *Drinks - the strawberry moscow mule was a bit on the sweet side but good. And we also tried the gin drink that was fantastic. There is also a large wine by the glass or bottle selection. There definitely wasn't anything we ordered that we didn't like - this place nailed it all and there were no complaints. It was cute and romantic and it won my bf over, who hates fancy places. We will definitely be back and make this a staple restaurant for celebrations. I'm salivating thinking about all the food again, so hopefully I'll be back soon! read more

The food is excellent, the servers and service is excellent. It's small and intimate making for a very romantic dinner.

My boyfriend took me on a very romantic date night in December. I've been several times before as a child for special occasions and always enjoyed it. The service is consistently impeccable and the food consistently delicious. The crab, avocado, mango tower is a classic and as perfectly made as when I enjoyed it as a child. We'd highly recommend the lamb and duck. The chocolate boxes had recently made a return to the dessert menu and were as decadent and delicious as I remember. They also had good social distancing measures, not sure how they are now. Highly recommend. Their meticulous standards have not wained. read more

Chez Nous - Duck with a side of shepherds pie - French Near Me - Humble, Texas

Cute atmosphere, disappointing dining experience. The appetizer foie gras was perfectly seared. It was presented with wonder bread toast points. We also tried the tartare which was good but served with the same bread. The grilled stone fruit salad sounded attractive with a vanilla vinaigrette...interestingly enough, it had grapes and citrus. For our main dishes we had duck confit/breast which was good but the breast skin could have been rendered a bit more and crisped. Confit was very tender but not seasoned. The halibut was cooked nicely, but nothing notable about the coconut rice and too sweet pineapple sauce. Other members of our party had the filet medallions and pork chop which they both enjoyed. Unfortunately there was no soufflé or crème brûlée on a Saturday night? The service was a bit gruff. Our waitress repeatedly asked some of our guests to hand her things from the table. Not quite a fine dining experience. read more

So tonight we took the little drive from the Woodlands to this quaint little place. As soon as we drove up on a Wednesday night and realized there was a packed house... I knew it was going to be fabulous! We started with the Blue crab tower which was delicious! (We maybe would prefer this on a hot Houston night instead of one of our few chilly ones). Next, I had the duck and he had lamb...... It was more perfect than I could ever describe! Large portions, And we finished off the entire shepherds pie side! To finish we had the seasonal ginger spice cheesecake and chocolate cloud of perfection desserts! (I can't pronounce or spell the French name for it.) We can't wait to go back to this cool restaurant with tons of history! Amy Beth and Justin Talley read more

The food was very good overall. The halibut was the hit of the table, the tomato and shrimp soup was not. Services was attentive and intuitive. The dinner rolls provided were not hot, that was a disappointment. The worst part was a gentleman in the room that had the loudest voice that echoed over everyone, and was just ruining the everyone's dinner. One table moved from the noisy patron. When he went to the restroom, it was pleasant, came back it was nails on blackboard. 300 dollars for two to hear this man's half of a conversation. The hype for Chez Nous maybe a bit over rated. read more

We went here for Houston Restaurant Week for a great deal of the 3 course meal for $45! The location is a bit odd since it's located in what seems to be a residential neighborhood but thought it was unique because the place looks like a huge home. The decor inside was cute though! We started off with this amazing sweet Riesling wine that our server recommended that wasn't even on the menu and she went above and beyond getting it for us. My favorite part was the escargot and Creme brûlée dessert and it was absolutely delicious! We also had the salmon and cordon bleu which tasted so delicate and crisp which I loved! Overall I had a great experience and was so stuffed and believe the deal was great for everything we had! read more

We just finished an early Valentine's Day dinner. It was terrific. Chez Nous is one of Shelly 's favorite restaurants. The service is top notch. The attention to detail is second to none. The food is exceptional. We both decided to order the same things off the prix fixe menu. We started with an awesome lobster bisque. Followed by Beef Wellington. This was my first time ever having Beef Wellington. I loved it. I think I will try to make at home sometime. We finished off our meal with a delicious chocolate suprise.

Great hidden gem in Humble. Moved to Kingwood from Heights about 6 months ago and was looking for somewhere special to eat that wasn't a chain. This place fits the bill.

Staff were warm and inviting. And that's all folks. Wow, is this place overrated! I was surprised by the location. But it has a cute warm feeling inside. It took an hour to get our appetizers (charceuterie, all served cold so no clue why it took so long to table; and escargot [biggest thumbs down]; and pork belly) After about 10 rounds of "would you like more bread" finally came the entrees: the Chicken was in my top 2 favs, cast iron steak #loved but my husband said it was too salty, salmon, and duck) Every entree had something on the plate that was heavily salted. And don't get me wrong, I LOVE salty but this was way too much. The kicker was that at no time did anyone come to our table to apologize for the long wait. Only one loan food runner made a joke once he delivered the final appetizer (pork belly) "we had to catch the pork for this one". At last the "large" chocolate soufflé was delivered to our table of 4 adults and it was maybe a 6 oz bowl... tasted like microwaved hot chocolate. The prices are way too high for this level.of let down. We won't be going back. read more

Absolutely incredible food. It's been years since I've eaten there and I still cannot find anywhere better to eat

It has been a while since we have been in but I love this place. Big shout out for Stacy keeping it going with the pandemic issues.

This is a restaurant that I usually reserve for special occasions like birthdays anniversaries other special occasions the food is always great the service is a great so if you want to give a special dinner for a loved one or for their special occasion this would be the fairy place to take them and I think they knew they would appreciate the meal the service and the thought behind it thank you very much read more

Chez Nous has been on my list for some time based on a solid 4.5 star average. Finally last night I had my chance. I'm impressed. Service was friendly, attentive, not pushy, thoughtful...basically outstanding. Cuisine was just that: cuisine. There are daily specials along with a longstanding menu of standard items with lots to choose from, all with a French flair. It was not difficult to find a combination that worked for me: + Corn, potato and shrimp chowder that was not too thick and not too "shrimpy." Perfect blend of flavors. + Canard was cooked perfectly rosy with roasted pear and other fruits accompanying. Shepard's pie and bread provided the carbs. + Raspberry souffle was freakishly good. It was one of those things where I was so full I wanted to stop eating, but I have a policy - no souffle left behind! Chez Nous has been around for over 20 years and I can tell you after my first visit that they have not grown weary of the work. If anything they have perfected their craft. The restaurant is located in a house, so it has a familiar, homey feel. All this including coffee and two glasses of wine for under $100 which is as good a dining value as I've had in years. Besides I can expense the meal which is just my little way of sticking it to the man...wait...I'm the man...ouch that felt good. read more

I can't believe I've waited so long to come here. The staff are all trained to be attentive to and anticipate your needs, they also try to maintain standards such as serving on your left. We started with the French kiss cocktail, it was well made with quality ingredients. Then we moved into the fromage a trois cheese platter. All the cheeses were creamy and delicious, the Roquefort is quite powerful so beware if you're afraid of this type of cheese, but for us we loved it. read more

I ate here for a friend's rehearsal dinner tonight and was really impressed. It's definitely not what you would expect if you didn't know any better: a restaurant inside a house in a residential neighborhood (Houston for the win!) But once inside, it looks like your typical, fancy French restaurant. The service was on point: they were right where they needed to be when they needed to be there: great about refilling wine glasses, bringing more bread, serving people synchronously, not auctioning food, etc. I had one of the better salads I've had in a long time: "Our Crisp Pasta and Homemade Herbed Goat Cheese Salad with Organic Field Greens, Tomatoes, Cucumbers fresh Herbs and Vinaigrette." Something about the herbs and vinaigrette they used was just outstanding: I can't put my finger on it, but I ate every last drop of this salad. The crisp pasta was super interesting as well: not what I was expecting, but very delicious. For the appetizer we also had the "Barrel Smoked Scottish Salmon, minced Onion, Capers and Toast Points." The toast points were uniquely thin and crunchy and a great vehicle for the smoked salmon, which was served in a very generous portion. The entree was a "Seared Atlantic Salmon, wilted Spinach and a Lemon Caper Butter." I am a salmon lover and very particular about how they're cooked: I rarely find a restaurant salmon that my wife or I think is better than mine. But these guys have it: perfectly done on the inside, with a nice bit of crunch on the outside. I have no idea how they do it but I want to learn! We had a compote for dessert that doesn't seem to be listed on the menu but may have been our friend's addition, but that was delicious too. It basically was like warm fruit soup with a scoop of ice cream on it: I loved the hot/cold fusion. All in all, we really enjoyed it here. I don't know that we'll be back in Humble, Texas again, but you should definitely check it out! read more

The ambiance is really quaint. Very French! It's like a little gem you can't believe could be found in Humble of all places. Service is usually very good. Love their Béarnaise sauce. The crème brûlée is my favorite dessert there. Très bien! read more
