Über dieses Restaurant

Welcome to Ishtia (v) to begin, start (to do something) | Away from the bustling city, on a quiet street in the bayside town of Kemah, stands “Ishtia,” a unique indigenous restaurant. It’s more than just a place to eat; it’s a sanctuary of food, culture, and community. The Tasting Menu transports you to a different world. The scent of mesquite and sage mingles with the rich aroma of roasted corn and smoked meats. The walls are adorned with tapestries, pottery, and artifacts from various indigenous people. Soft, rhythmic drumbeats play in the background, creating a warm and reverent atmosphere. Ishtia is the creation of Chef David Skinner, a Choctaw tribal member, inspired by his ancestors' stories. He believes every dish has a story, and at Ishtia, those stories come to life.

Küchenchef*in: David Christopher Skinner

Von der OpenTable-Redaktion: Chef David Skinner’s intimate, highly personal 18-seat tasting menu restaurant zeroes in on a variety of Indigenous American cuisines, a reflection of his own Choctaw heritage. Opened in 2024, the restaurant’s multi-course menus, cooked over live fire, have already earned accolades, including a nod from Eater for the Best New Restaurant in Houston and a James Beard semifinalist placement for Skinner for Best Chef: Texas. Settle in for a three-hour dining experience at one of the few Indigenous-focused restaurants in the entire country as you dig into soulful dishes like tanchi labona, a Choctaw soup made with nixtamalized corn and pork.
