ishtia (v) to begin, start (to do something)Away from the bustling city, on a quiet street in the bayside town of Kemah, stands “Ishtia,” a unique indigenous restaurant. It’s more than just a place to eat; it’s a sanctuary of food, culture, and community. The exterior, with hand-painted trees, attracts curious and intrigued visitors.Inside, guests are transported to a different world. The scent of mesquite and sage mingles with the rich aroma of roasted corn and smoked meats. The walls are adorned with tapestries, pottery, and artifacts from various indigenous people. Soft, rhythmic drumbeats play in the background, creating a warm and reverent atmosphere.Ishtia is the creation of Chef David Skinner, a Choctaw tribal member, inspired by his ancestors' stories. His vision was to offer a space where people could experience indigenous culture through food and storytelling. He believes every dish has a story, and at Ishtia, those stories come to life.

This is my absolute favorite restaurant in the Seabrook/Kemah area. The food is fantastic, I’ve only ever had great service. It is a little on the pricey side, but the portions are large and the quality is consistently excellent.

Landry's Seafood was great. The food and wine were terrific! The service was very good and I didn't feel rushed. The server and management checked in several times, but was not intrusive. It was our first time dining there and would highly recommend it.
