Watched over by stately palm trees, this venerable shopping center has been a Houston favorite for many years thanks to its gracious welcome, charming stucco buildings, and array of upscale shops. Domestic goods are prominent at Restoration Hardware, Crate & Barrel, Pottery Barn, and Williams-Sonoma, while quality clothing can be found at Tootsies, Banana Republic, and Chico's. Incredible dining is also a breeze, whether you're in the mood for Asian fare, steaks, or a fragrant cup of coffee and a snack.
