Graffiti Raw
The Big Vibe Group (Flora, Coppa, and Gratify) will open this new restaurant in the Montrose Collective later this month. Described in a release as a "coastal cool raw bar,” the menu will feature grilled meat and seafood alongside ceviche, crudos, tartares, and pastas. An extensive cocktail list will pair with the diverse menu.

Baba Yega Café
Shuttered since 2018 after being damaged by a fire, the Montrose institution will return this summer. Executive chef Sue Nowamooz has updated the Mediterranean-inspired menu and added an all-new roster of plant-based options. Houston’s Gin Design Group has remodeled the space to include a beer garden, a lounge, and an internal courtyard that will host the restaurant’s signature Sunday brunch.
