Summer Fun in Rice Village

The Eye Elegance Montrose boutique is just a hop, skip, and a jump away from Rice Village. When is the last time you walked the Rice University Loop or visited the Houston Museum of Natural Science? The next time you’re headed to Montrose, it might be time to wander back through Rice Village to discover what’s new.

Shop

If you want a workout without running the Rice U. loop, how about a day of shopping in Rice Village? Park your car and walk all day; a few of our favorite stops include:

• Elaine Turner (2439 University Blvd., Houston, TX 77005)—High-end fashion from a local Houston designer—what’s not to love?
• Kendra Scott (2411 Times Blvd., Houston, TX 77005)—This Austin designer has found a following among Houston’s most fashionable folks. Not just jewelry, you’ll also find home décor and great gift ideas.

Eat

Humble taco joints? Check. Sushi? Check. Steakhouses? Check! There is no shortage of drinking and dining options in Rice Village:

• Helen Greek Food & Wine (2429 Rice Blvd., Houston, TX 77005)—Gorgeous Greek food, and even more gorgeous Greek wines. Helen Greek Food & Wine has been a Houston hotspot since the day their doors opened.
• Istanbul Grill & Deli (5613 Morningside Dr., Houston, TX 77005)—Istanbul is a Houston institution. If your next trip is your first trip, it won’t be your last!
• Houston’s (4848 Kirby Drive, Houston, TX 77098)—Another long-time local favorite, Houston’s has been open for 28 years; a great stop for dining, or just cocktails in the bar.

Treat

It’s just a quick hop, skip, and jump from Rice Village over to River Oaks to visit the milk + honey spa (2800 Kirby Dr., Houston, TX, 77098). Pamper yourself with a spa service or two—massage, facials, waxing, mani/pedi, lashes, and even special treatments for kids and teens.
