Our Story
Embark on a culinary journey steeped in heritage and bold flavors at Cowboys & Indians Indian + Tex Fusion. Born from our family's passion for food and hospitality, our restaurant blends the cultural essence of India with the vibrant spirit of Houston, Texas.
Inspired by treasured family recipes passed down through Moms, Aunties, and Uncles we have curated a menu that harmoniously fuses the best of both worlds. With the leadership of Executive Chef Vinny & "The Uncles" Rahamat, Akbar, and Babar, we have crafted a unique dining experience where Texan comfort meets Indian spices.
Originally located in the heart of Montrose, our journey began with a vision to create a space where family, friends, and guests could come together to share in the joys of exceptional cuisine. The overwhelming response led us to expand our horizons and establish ourselves in the thriving Washington-Heights neighborhood.
At Cowboys and Indians, family extends beyond bloodlines. We have grown our family through our dedicated staff, talented chefs, and the warm embrace of the people of Houston. We cherish the values of respect, camaraderie, and authentic hospitality, ensuring that every visit to our restaurant feels like coming home.
