Modern American Cuisine, at the Alden Hotel Houston. "Where 17 Railroads Meet the Sea" *17 was named after Houston's deep history of the railroad and its perfect access to the sea. We honor that tradition by having a menu of 17 items for you to choose from.
With an ambiance of retro glamour that's still modernly comfortable, *17 invites our diners to choose the quantity and style of food that is right for any time of day.
Our menu is influenced by seasons, using locally produced ingredients such as Houston's own Pola Artisan Cheeses, fused with approachable culinary techniques that define today's modern American cuisine with a great balance of "Land & Sea". Whether you find something new or wish try an old favorite, you and your party will be treated to wonderfully unique experience - only at *17.
