You're thinking of the Fiesta on Braeswood @ Gessner.

 

No, I know the Fiesta on Fondren was a Kroger, as was the Braeswood and Gessner location.  I went to both of them, but mainly the W. Bellfort and Fondren location.

And to add to the list of Houston-area Safeway stores, there was one at Cypress N. Houston and Huffmeister.  It's now a Food Town.  I recall a location in Quail Valley (Missouri City area) but I couldn't tell you where exactly.  And there was one near NASA-I recall it was small and the street sign had the circle S logo painted on a small square sign.  

 

Necroposting ... the Hooper's Minimax was at 2601 Cartwright Road in Missouri City. I worked there in high school. It was a Gerlands before then, and it's a gym now.

Please excuse my intrusion. I ran across your post looking for a clue as to what happened with Jumbo on Westheimer.  I worked at the Jumbo Superstore on Westheimer when I was ~20 & first moved to Houston (~'77) and Peter Louie hired me to work at his store.  That store was bigger than anything else around.  It had live seafood tanks, fish, meat, a deli, produce, shelf stable, frozen, & specialty items.  All of these lines included both domestic and imports from around the world.  It had everything.  It was a great store accessible to all and a great layout.  That building held dreams of freedom that came true and pride in a job well done (Peter Louie had escaped from mainland China when he was younger).  He was an amazing man who loved that building and was always a kind and generous man to anyone who walked through it's portals.  -B

I worked for Peter Louie, Richard Wong and the Kwong brothers at the Jumbo at 10250 Westheimer (across the street from Texas Instruments) starting in late 1975 until 1979. That store is long gone, passed by a while back but don’t recall the business there now.

it was a fine store, well run and Mr. Louie was a very good man. I enjoyed my time there and have fond memories of those days.
