Welcome To Mezzanotte Ristorante
What began strictly as an investment in 2005 unearthed our life’s passion. Through a series of seemingly random opportunities, we, both disenchanted corporate America ladder climbers — whose successful track record in business included running global operations for Fortune 500 companies but not professional cooking or restaurant management — found us as executive chef, sommeliers, managers and marketers of our Mezzanotte Ristorante.
When creating Mezzanotte, we wanted more for our restaurant than only great food and wine. We wanted an establishment with soul. What distinguishes us from other restaurants is our passion and totally focused energy under-girding every aspect of our operation.

“Peruvian Software Exec Turned Chef Opens Houston's Best Upscale Italian Cuisine Spot” - Alison Cook, Houston Chronicle
It’s such a Houston tale: Peruvian software exec turned self-taught chef opens an Italian cuisine restaurant in Houston that turns out to be the best upscale dining option in the city’s vast and underserved northwest territories. Gerry Sarmiento’s warm, vibrantly hued spot among the tall pines of Cypress offers everything from a major-league pork shoulder braised in red wine, and served over plush polenta, to a wonderfully homey lasagna with “pink sauce” for the times when something familiar and comforting is called for. Sautéing and saucing are strong points, and the pasta shines, too. This is the vanishingly rare place where I’m tempted to order an old-fashioned filet mignon dish, flambéed with brandy and napped with buttery, brandied cream. Adriana Sarmiento’s warmth and ease add greatly to the familial feel that is key here.
