It's been a few years since I lived in Houston, but here are a few recommendations...  For Mexican, my favorite was always Pico's Mex-Mex (on Bellaire).  My second choice would be Chuy's (2706 Westheimer, and probably 1 or 2 other locations).  Also pretty good are Pappasito's and Ninfa's (all over).

For a real Houston and Texas experience, try Goode Company Barbeque (on Kirby, south of US 59 and north of the Rice U. Village).  Try the brisket or Czech sausage dinners.

Houston is a *huge* place, so you might want to indicate what area you'll be staying in.
