Smart downtowners know about the soulful Southern fare at this wonderfully reliable Louisiana-style cafeteria. Discerning diners and tough critics alike agree this is the place for jambalaya, buttery shrimp etouffee, red beans and rice with link sausage, and homemade jalapeno cornbread. Housed in the second oldest building in Houston, the Baker-Travis Building, the decor is sparse, but still... more

As simple as it sounds, butter cake is the signature dessert. Treebeards has turned catering and takeout into an art form, selling sheets of the stuff.

I believe this is the original. The atmosphere is very good. I always get the red beans and rice with sausage. Don't forget the cornbread. A must when eating lunch downtown.

Jambalaya Daydreams

I daydream about the wonderful jambalaya I used to order at lunch when I worked downtown in the 80's. Go for "The Full Boat" as the large order of J was called. Be generous with the napkins as I ruined more than one shirt and tie with the spicy sauce! Too bad they don't have suburban locations. One in Market Street in The Woodlands would go over very well!

Pros

The Best Lunch In Houston

I have been eating at Treebeards since I moved to Houston in the early 80's. For the money I would say it's my favorite restaurant in Houston. Even though I live 20 miles from downtown I still make the trip once a week for the red beans and rice, served "all the way".

Pros

+ located in the scenic, historical area of Houston.

Cons

- None
