Need a great Lunch spot for special occasion

Hi all,

I am looking for a great lunch spot to celebrate a special occasion. Many great Houston restaurants recommended on here and in yelp don't open until 4 or 5pm, which is too late for us (kid duties). Something that is open for lunch (12-5pm) would hit the spot.

Don't worry about cost or part of town, as long as it's within an hour of downtown, we can get there. We want something interesting, unique, great food, etc. And must be open for lunch (12-5pm).

What do you got? 🙂
