The Chelsea is an upscale seafood restaurant and oyster bar opening later this year. It's one of the dining options in Montrose Collective. The address is 888 Westheimer Rd, Ste 119. Syn Group is the mind behind the Chelsea. The Dallas-based hospitality team operates several restaurants and bars is the Dallas and Fort Worth areas: America Gardens, Don Chingon, Wishful Drinking, and others. However, I think Syn Group is enlisting the hospitality team behind Houston's Lincoln Bar, Pour Behavior, and several more food and beverage concepts. One of the owners of Lincoln Bar listed the Chelsea in their Instagram bio. It's included alongside their other concepts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntheKnowHouston Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Graffiti Raw opened last month in the Montrose Collective development. It's located at 1001 California St, Suite 101. From Houston Chronicle last month: "The Big Vibe Group, the Houston hospitality group responsible for Coppa Osteria, Gratify, and Flora restaurants, has announced the opening of Graffiti Raw, described as an all-day kitchen and bar “inspired by the diverse Californian food scene.” The Big Vibe project from founders Grant Cooper and Josep Prats, has been designed to evoke beach vibes inspired by Mexico, the Big Sur region, and the Mediterranean. The space at 1001 California is invested with “raw” artwork, white oak, woven light fixtures and chairs, and design details from Round Top and vendors that Grant and Jacy Cooper have worked with for more than a decade." https://www.houstonchronicle.com/food-culture/restaurants-bars/article/Graffiti-Raw-Big-Vibe-Hospitality-Montrose-Houston-17737998.php 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntheKnowHouston Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 On 1/29/2022 at 7:03 AM, IntheKnowHouston said: Houston Chronicle reported a few details about the TBA bottle shop coming to Montrose Collective, 888 Westheimer: "Radom teased a new wine bar and bottle shop, run by the former manager of "a very well-known Montrose restaurant" who has worked in Houston for a long time. It will serve a concise food menu of sandwiches and salads." https://preview.houstonchronicle.com/dining/exciting-new-restaurants-shops-coming-to-16809379 I think the bottle shop and cafe coming to Montrose Collective at 888 Westheimer Rd is probably Flora's. The name may also be Flora"s Bottle Shop. Flora's was planned for another location nearby in Montrose last year. However, going off Houston Chronicle's reporting, it seems the wine bar & cafe could be Flora's. Last spring, Flora's created an Instagram for its business. https://www.instagram.com/florasbottleshop/ https://florasbottleshop.com On 2/6/2022 at 7:04 AM, IntheKnowHouston said: Looks like Flora's (Flora's Bottle Shop) is indeed opening its wine shop and sandwich cafe at Montrose Collective, 888 Westheimer. Over the weekend, Flora's updated their Instagram bio with the inclusion of Montrose Collective. The shop also posted an update to its page yesterday, as well as an Instagram story announcing their forthcoming retail shop and wine bar at Montrose Collective. On 4/4/2022 at 1:49 AM, IntheKnowHouston said: Last week, Flora's (or Flora's Bottle Shop) shared renderings of its unit on Instagram.

hindesky Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 "The Austin-based James Beard Award-winning restaurant group behind Uchi, Uchiko, and Loro Smokehouse, is debuting Oheya by Uchi, an exclusive 12-seat, reservation-only sushi restaurant, on Monday, March 20 in Montrose. Taking over the space that previously housed coffee bar Southside Espresso, neighboring Uchi at 904 Westheimer, Oheya will offer two experiences per night, at 6 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., priced at $175 per person, with sushi-bar seating only. The name, which translates to “the room” in Japanese, reflects the intimate omakase room experience, and plays off of Uchi’s moniker, which means “home”." https://houston.eater.com/2023/3/13/23609321/oheya-by-uchi-opening-montrose-houston 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
