At Rocket Farm Restaurants, the core philosophy that defines our culture is “We serve the person who is serving the guest.” Our culture is not something we act out on the floor of the restaurant. It starts with how we treat and serve one another in the kitchen – with dignity, respect, and care. We believe there should be no difference in how we treat and serve one another in the kitchen and how we treat and serve our guests in the dining room. We hope you agree and will consider joining us!
Influenced by Houston’s melting pot of cuisines, industry, and cultures, State of Grace brings together nuances of Tex-Mex, Asian, and Vietnamese to highlight the nostalgia and influence of chef Ford Fry’s childhood.
