Golfstromen

Golfstromen is a point of interest in Downtown, Houston, Texas, located at 401 Franklin St, Houston, Houston, TX.

Golfstrømmen (Norwegian for "Gulf Stream") was a celebrated sustainable seafood restaurant and market inside Post Houston's downtown food hall, co-founded by Norwegian "neo-fjordic" chef Christopher Haatuft of Bergen's Lysverket and James Beard Award–winning Texas chef Paul Qui. The concept applied Haatuft's minimal New Nordic techniques to fresh Gulf Coast seafood — oysters, vibrant ceviches, open-faced snitters, and pristine raw preparations — earning a spot on Houston Chronicle critic Alison Cook's top-100 list and a 2022 CultureMap Best New Restaurant nomination. The vibe was lively yet refined, nestled within the cavernous former Barbara Jordan Post Office, drawing serious seafood enthusiasts and curious diners alike. The restaurant closed in February 2024, with both chefs signaling plans to reopen in a new location.
