Brazos Belle Restaurant was a French country restaurant located in the town of Burton, Texas, in the rolling hills of Washington County.[1][2]

History

Established in 1993 by chefs André Delacroix and Sandy Chariau,[1] Brazos Belle was housed in the historic Steiner & Dallmeyer Building dating back to the late 19th century.[3] The restaurant has been celebrated locally for its authentic French bistro-style dishes and charming ambiance.[4] The Brazos Belle gained a loyal following for its homemade bread, seasonal menu, and intimate setting.[5] As of 2025, following the death of its chef,[6][7] it remains temporarily closed for extensive renovations, with plans to reopen after restoring the adjacent historic Bridge Building.[8]
