The Top 9 Tasting Menus Near Myron's Prime Steakhouse
-
Rank 1. Nicōsi
Creative Dessert
A velvet-curtained counter in a darkened corner of Pullman Market hosts an entirely dessert-focused tasting menu, each course built around acidic, umami, bitter, or sweet. The theatrical plating—tomme cheese mille-feuille with caviar and gold leaf, short rib crowned in house-spun cotton candy—rewards the surrender of phones and photographs alike.

Rank 3. Mixtli
Mexican
Galicia and Torres build tasting menus around Mexico's fractured geography and deep past—one night Oaxaca, the next pre-Columbian, the next the hot lands. Their fine-dining technique animates regional traditions with cerebral precision, each plate a small argument about flavor and history, plated with care that matches the cook's obvious reverence for the source material.

Rank 5. Hestia
Live-Fire New American
Wood smoke fills the dining room at this downtown fine-dining kitchen centered on a 20-foot live-fire hearth that chars everything from scallops to cantaloupe. Texas ingredients emerge from the flames transformed—elegant, sometimes unsettling, always marked by intentional char and smoke.

Rank 6. Olamaie
Contemporary Southern
A white-shuttered cottage north of downtown serves Southern food with contemporary edges and a cocktail list that swings from daily punch to inventive martinis spiked with basil eau de vie. The buttermilk biscuit arrives warm with whipped honey butter, and the roasted chicken, stuffed with spicy Cajun rice, settles the question of whether restraint is ever the point.

Rank 7. Toshokan
Omakase Sushi
Behind a bookshelf inside a mini-golf bar, Chef Saine Wong's soundproof omakase counter seats just a few guests at a time. The nigiri here leans playful—hamachi dressed like a spicy margarita, wagyu arranged to evoke steak and eggs—irreverent enough to match its unlikely home.
