Credence and Sidebar, Houston chef Levi Goode’s two new South Texas ranch-inspired ventures under his own name, are devoted to regional American fare. Goode is the leader of the iconic Houston-based restaurant group Goode Co.
Located at The McKinley at Memorial City, the side-by-side restaurant and speakeasy bar offer diners Texas cuisine cooked over a live fire. The Goode Co teamed up with architecture and design firm Gensler to create spaces inspired by Goode’s storytelling and travels. Credence and Sidebar feature classical European architecture with double barrel vaulted ceilings, locally crafted tabletops, wood floors, brass inlays, penny tile, antique rugs, and a massive shared outdoor patio. Houston-based Weingarten Art Group curated works by Parisian photographer Kourtney Roy and local design firm Principle commissioned large murals depicting Texas desert landscapes by Texas artist Johnathon Schubert.
Join us for a tour of Credence and Sidecar, and a sampling of fare with Douglas Detiveaux and Inga Zunte, Gensler; Dustin Hubbard, Texana Builders; Eric Ortiez, Bomanite Houston; and Goode Co.
Designed with Taste, an event series from Architecture Center Houston explores Houston’s newest restaurants to examine how design affects the dining experience. Hear about the design inspiration for the spaces, and how it interacts with the culinary offerings. Is the food influenced by the design, or is it the other way around? Enjoy lite bites and cocktails and decide for yourself.
Designed with Taste: Credence is generously sponsored by Texana Builders and Bomanite Houston.
