To Bloom, To Catch Fire

Xochi, pronounced so-chee, takes its name from Xochitl, Goddess of the Flowers, meaning to bloom or catch fire. Led by award-winning Chef Hugo Ortega and the H Town Restaurant Group team, Xochi celebrates the culinary and indigenous richness of Oaxaca, Mexico through food, drink, tradition, and hospitality. Every detail is rooted in craft, from housemade moles and handmade masa to roasted cacao, mezcal, wood-fired dishes, and warm service in the heart of downtown Houston.
