The Hobby Center for the Performing Arts is a $100-million state-of-the-art performing arts complex housing two theatres - the 2,650-seat Sarofim Hall and the 500-seat Zilkha Hall - Artista restaurant and the Humphreys School of Musical Theatre as well as tenants Theatre Under The Stars and Broadway in Houston. The soaring roofline and grand architecture, designed by Robert A.M. Stern, is quickly becoming an international icon for the important role Houston will play in the 21st century. The Hobby Family, whose name is synonymous with the generosity that characterizes Houston, made the lead gift that serves as an inspiration and banner of commitment to the arts and the people of Texas.  

 

"The soaring roofline of the Hobby creates a three-story-high space inside the restaurant. And the enormous windows frame the downtown skyline. It's a treat just to walk into the place." by Robb Walsh, Houston Press restaurant critic.

"Located inside the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts, Artista was recently labeled the most exciting new room - and arguably the best view - in downtown Houston." by Alison Cook, Houston Chronicle restaurant critic.

"Michael Cordúa of Churrascos, Américas and Amazón Grill restaurants, has unveiled his latest masterpiece - Artista. The picture-perfect Artista, located inside the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts, offers a unique fine-dining experience. Unlike any other, Artista is an original!"
