About

Salento Bistrot is an upscale Spanish–Latin fusion restaurant and wine bar in the heart of Rice Village, Houston, serving delicious, healthy, flavorful house-made food since 2003. Best known for their brunch, signature paellas and handcrafted empanadas, Salento pairs elevated cuisine with a wide, carefully curated wine program featuring top local and international labels available by the glass and bottle. The experience is defined by weekly live performers—often acoustic musicians playing Spanish guitar and other styles—creating an elegant indoor setting and an ambient, music-filled patio. Ideal for date nights, celebrations, and private events, with a private dining room and indoor and outdoor seating. Walk-ins welcome daily.
