flatline Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 This new spot looks very close to opening in the Bedford/Stella Sola/Black & White space on Studewood: https://www.maisonpucha.com/story/ Shepard Ross (formerly Glass Wall, currently Pax Americana) is consulting with them.

IntheKnowHouston Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 The Sitter Group behind King's Bierhaus is bringing another concept to the Heights area. They are planning to open several outlets of King's Kolache Haus. One is slated for the Heights area, but I don't know the exact location. I would be interested in a kolache shop from Revival Market. I don't see that happening any time soon, however with their upcoming concepts in East Village on the boards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angostura Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 The Sunny Food Store was the first off-premise beer/wine licensee in the formerly dry Heights, but the first new establishment to open with an off-premise license if finally set to open: Italian-America Grocery Store, next to Gelazzi. TABC permits were issued all the way back in April of last year. Congrats to owners on the opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s3mh Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Richard Knight is taking over Harold's in the Heights. I liked Chef Ware, but thought that he was phoning it in the past year or two. The menu was a bit watered down (no Beaufort stew) and a little like a high end Luby's. Richard Knight is the best and deserves a good break after the clowns running Treadsack submarined Hunky Dory. http://houston.culturemap.com/news/restaurants-bars/03-01-18-harolds-heights-new-chef-richard-knight-feast-hunky-dory-alli-jarrett/#slide=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flatline Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Whoa. Had seemed to be turning over tables okay the times that I've been in them recently.

And Anthony Calleo, the guy who started the Pi Pizza food truck, left the brick and mortar version in January. I suspect other things are going on behind the scenes at Cherry Pie that we haven't heard about yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder whether transitioning Ellis and others out of the business is why the build out of Lee's Creamery on 19th and Rutland basically stopped in its tracks after being substantially built out.

Orang Bodoh Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Looks like Republic Diner (1221 W.11th Street, formerly Witchcraft) is out, and Blackbird Izakaya is in. https://houston.eater.com/2018/7/2/17524754/blackbird-izakaya-replacing-republic-diner-noodle-bar-heights I had to google it, but an izakaya is an informal Japanese pub. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Izakaya.

mkultra25 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Hickory Hollow is closing early next year - the property has been sold to Braun Enterprises. Their other location in Fallbrook will remain open. http://houston.culturemap.com/news/restaurants-bars/08-21-18-hickory-hollow-heights-restaurant-building-sold-closing-braun-enterprises-tony-riedel/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkultra25 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 That's too bad about DaCapo's - they made our wedding cake <mumble> years ago. But, like Hickory Hollow, at least they are the ones making the decision and going out on their own terms, rather than having their hand forced by someone else. Hard to begrudge someone a well-deserved retirement after a long and successful run in business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure why eater is so sure that it will be a bar. I would think it would be more along the lines of a gastropub like BLT or even a restaurant give that the space is set up with space for a kitchen.
