adr Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 This space formerly housed Tiki bar Kanaloa and Bitterman's Market Square Bar & Grill. It will now be part of a chain, and build out has been in progress for a couple weeks based on my observations. A CBD Restaurant With a ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ Connection Will Open in Houston Quote Dennis McKinley, the on-again, off-again fiancé of Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams, will continue his Houston takeover with the opening of CBD-focused cocktail lounge in Downtown. The Original Hot Dog Factory, another restaurant owned by McKinley, opened a Houston outpost in August 2020. Cru Hemp Lounge, which was founded by McKinley in Atlanta a decade ago, is undergoing a major growth spurt, with franchises opening in Dallas, Washington D.C., and now, according to Instagram, Houston. The club, which is apparently popular with celebrities in Atlanta, is billed as a hookah lounge, bar and fast-casual restaurant, offering items like elaborately-flavored shisha mixes, cloying “Crutails” with ingredients like Belvedere wild berry vodka, peach and raspberry liqueur, and cranberry and orange juice, and bar bites like wings, quesadillas and sliders. Paperwork filed with Harris County indicates the lounge will be located at 311 Travis Street. That’s the former location of rum bar Kanaloa, which opened in 2018 and apparently closed recently, likely due to COVID-19 bar limitations. A real estate listing for that address was created on November 5, 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
