ABOUT LEVI GOODE: Levi Goode, fifth-generation Texan and three-time James Beard Award nominee, leads the iconic Goode Company’s family-owned and operated business in Houston, Texas. As the current-day curator of all things Texas, food isn’t just what Levi does; it’s who he is. Son of famed BBQ legend Jim Goode, Levi grew up in the restaurant business and credits his father for demonstrating a strong work ethic and the importance of honoring the diverse Texas culture. Growing up with boots on both sides of the border quickly taught him that cooking is about sharing a way of life—and a way of doing things—much more than it is just combining ingredients. Levi remains fiercely committed to sharing and preserving the famed hospitality and rich cooking traditions of the Lone Star State, serving up authentic varieties of Gulf Coast seafood, Tex-Mex, and mesquite-smoked barbeque across the city. He oversees every aspect of the 46-year-old company, from its 12 restaurants and popular live music venue to its thriving catering operations and e-commerce business. In 2024, Levi launched his first restaurant concepts under his personal brand, Credence and Sidebar, which opened to critical acclaim. In spring 2025, he will expand his personal brand of restaurants with the opening of Otto’s Ice House in San Antonio’s popular Pearl district. His community involvements only echo his passion to pass on the best of Texas. Levi has served on the board of the Greater Houston Convention Visitors Bureau, hosting events for international and out-of-town visitors seeking a taste of genuine Texas food, hospitality and music. He has partnered with other top chefs to showcase Houston’s dynamic food scene through the GHCVB’s monthly fundraiser, “Houston Culinary Tours: Where the Chefs Eat” and he is an active and founding member of Foodways Texas, whose mission is to preserve, promote, and celebrate the vibrant variety of food in Texas. Along the way, he’s been featured across local, national, and international media, including the Houston Chronicle, Houston Press, the Travel Channel, Food Network and the Wall Street Journal. The Houston Business Journal acknowledged Levi as one of its top young professionals, naming him in 2013 to its “40 Under 40” list. On multiple occasions, he has been recognized as a semifinalist for outstanding restaurateur by the James Beard Awards, the highest honor for food and beverage professionals in North America. ...read more read less
