Reposting this throws off the flow of the thread (i.e. out of order), still, it may be helpful for visitors to see what was previously discussed or shared before. A Houston Chronicle report today about Dak & Bop's expansion posted here yesterday. This location will be a Korean-Italian fusion restaurant. Popular Korean fried chicken joint Dak & Bop is heading to Timbergrove. Owner Jason Cho told Chron.com he is launching the second location of the casual restaurant at 1805 West 18th Street in the space formerly occupied by Italian restaurant, La Vista 101. The first location of Dak & Bop, located at 1801 Binz in the Museum District, opened in 2014. "I've been looking for a second location for more than a year. I was waiting for the right spot," Cho said. ...The second outpost of Dak & Bop, 3,000 square feet, is currently being renovated with a tentative opening date set for mid- to late October, Cho said. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/entertainment/restaurants-bars/article/Houston-Heights-Timbergrove-Dak-Bop-fried-chicken-14427955.php Edited November 11, 2019 by CrockpotandGravel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntheKnowHouston Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 The owners of Dak & Bop listed their business for sale recently. The restaurant is located at 1805 W 18th St in the Timbergrove neighborhood. Unlike its former location in the Museum District, this one centered on Korean and Italian-influenced fare. I don't have access to the listing or the marketing materials. But, the way it's being marketed, it seems whomever wants to buy the business, will take over the remaining terms of the property's lease. I also don't know if this means if the current owners can't find a buyer, whether the restaurant will close or not. https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/1805-W-18th-St-Houston-TX/25691179/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Can't wait to try it. It's supposed to be very good I've always wanted to go the Hammerly Blvd one but it's just so far and I rarely go to Spring Branch. I want to try their pozole soup and quesabirria tacos. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard good things too. I'm just glad the owners were able to find someone to lease the building quickly and to a business I think will be apart of the community for many years. Wishing Tacos Doña Lena all the best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
