Is Saudi Arabia capable of taking out the Houthis?

They should be. But it would require real boots on the ground. There are political challenges inside Saudi Arabia. They’ve gotten themselves between a rock and a hard place.

But Houthi’s have bombed near Mecca. If they are stupid enough to hit something Muslims see as holy it would free the hands of the monarchy.

I think a few fly overs by B-52 dropping a full load of ordance shou8ld be enough to get the ZHouthi’s attention and soften them up for Saudis to mop up the mess.
