There are plans posted on ACS Studio Architecture's website for Burgr Hous. A search shows new records for Burgr Hous at 811 St Emanuel. Here's more about the development of the space:Burgr Hous is a renovation of a former art warehouse into a new, gourmet restaurant in the East Downtown (EADO) part of Houston, TX. ACS Studio Architecture demolished the entire space, and created an inviting restaurant space for 150 guests in the 2,400sf space. Here's the site plan for Burgr Hous: There aren't renderings but pictures on ACS Studio Architecture's website shows interior shots of Wahlburgers ( Donnie and Mark Wahlburg's burger restaurant). The restaurant could be going for a look similar to Wahlburgers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBTX Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 It opened. 4 hours ago, hindesky said: I don't think it ever opened, every time I went by it was under construction but never actually opened. It opened, it was a disaster from what i understand. Employees weren't paid, rent wasn't paid (build out took longer than expected and no cash flow), heard a rumor that the owner offered to pay an employee in coke when payroll didn't go through, and oh yeah, the dude admitted to Eater that he had no restaurant experience aside from having "been to many" in his life. Unfortunately that article is now deleted. Interesting story all around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HtownWxBoy Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Went once while it was open. The food was good (not great but good) but the service was very odd... you ordered at a counter when you walked in (normally this is where you would also pay) but you paid at the table like a normal restaurant. I don't know I just remember being confused with the service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man that's rough - to spend that kind of money on a build-out and close up that quickly. Very unfortunate for them. Whoever takes over this space will get a great looking restaurant with very minimal out of pocket costs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow ... that's gotta be a record for the least amount of time a restaurant was open. I live around the corner and only went once ... the food itself was good but the service was not ... figured it was just growing pains. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Eater Houston: An EaDo burger joint, Burgr Hous, has already closed just shy of hitting its two month mark in business. The eatery at 801 St. Emanuel Street opened on June 7, but was locked out of the building last week by its landlord due to an alleged failure to pay rent. According to photos posted on popular Houston real estate forum HAIF, a notice left on Burgr Hous’ door states that the eatery had been locked out by the landlord out for failing to pay. “For lease” signs were also posted on the front of the building. Burgr Hous owner Brian Jordan is a former civil engineer who told KHOU 11 shortly after opening that he left his career after 22 years because he was tired of it, and had no restaurant experience aside from eating in “thousands” of restaurants but decided to give restaurant ownership a try. https://houston.eater.com/2018/7/30/17630560/eado-burgr-hous-closed-two-months 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the next restaurant moving into the closed Burgr Hous space will survive for more than a month (okay, two months). Tacos A Go Go is opening a location at 811 St Emanuel in EaDo, Houston. It's replacing Burgr Hous. Edited October 22, 2019 by CrockpotandGravel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
