Welcome to Spring in Houston! Patio season, allergy season and likewise new restaurant season. Not going to lie, as a meals blogger and somebody who loves eating out, I’m overwhelmed with the entire new ideas coming to Houston. Many are from restauranteurs and cooks that we already know and belief which makes them should visits. A few of these eating places, I’ve had the privilege of visiting already. The remaining ones, are on my checklist for this Spring and I figured they need to be in your checklist too. Listed below are the New Houston Eating places to Do this Spring.
Prime 131
When Berg Hospitality Group opens a brand new restaurant, I’m seemingly going to be there ASAP (besides that inappropriately named one, however that’s a narrative for one more day). Anywho, the creators of B&B Butchers have opened a brand new steakhouse referred to as Prime 131 over within the TimberGrove Neighborhood. For you hardcore internal loopers, it IS within the loop simply the northern half! Right here, visitors can dine on conventional steaks and sides with Japanese and Korean influences. Additionally they have some particular tables which you can ebook for Korean barbecue. For essentially the most half, I believe that is going to be a neighborhood restaurant and there have been tons of recent townhouses being constructed close by so they are going to positively have a crowd.
In your go to, you possibly can count on to see some favourite drinks from different Berg Hospitality ideas. Take into account that the edges are small and extra particular person so order accordingly. Undoubtedly don’t skip the dinosaur bone marrow, the lobster toast (one of the best dish!) and make sure to order sushi as effectively.
Augustine’s
I’m including Augustine’s right here which isn’t actually truthful, since you technically won’t be able to attempt it once more till August. Augustine’s is a restaurant that might be housed within the mattress and breakfast, Resort King David. Situated in third ward, the venue is intimate and permits for distinctive occasions. I had the privilege of attending three of their preview occasions, helmed by Chef Dom Lee. These occasions had been revolutionary, bringing progressive Creole delicacies to Houston and simply throughout enjoyable! I like to recommend following them now so you might be within the know as soon as they reopen following a transform.
PKL Social
Pickleball is taking up and the brand new bar PKL Social is ensuring you possibly can socialize whereas taking part in. I visited throughout their comfortable opening and though I’ve not taken up the game but, I loved the outing. Situated on Washington Ave, PKL Social is an extension of FM Kitchen & Bar. Right here, visitors can play pickleball or relax within the out of doors areas. I introduced my sister alongside for the go to. We cherished their model of an grownup Cherry Limeade and their burger with tots is fairly good too. If you’re in search of extra energetic or to take pleasure in this patio season, I believe PKL Social is a good place to start out.
Conservatory Galleria
Now… considered one of my mates argues that Houston doesn’t want any extra meals halls! In sure areas like downtown, sure I agree. However after residing within the Galleria space throughout my 20s, it’s an idea that I believe may work there. And if anybody can do that proper, it will be the folks behind Conservatory contemplating they had been behind one of many first meals halls in Houston. For my true Houstonians, you’ll keep in mind this area because the Roxy, a membership the place I spent many a teen nights in highschool. Now it’s full of nice restaurant ideas and two bars. Throughout my go to I loved the Black MKT birria tacos. Now, I wouldn’t say I might journey throughout city for this model of the favored dish, nevertheless it’s first rate. I’ll say their one problem would be the seating. I believe it may use some extra seats and maybe didn’t want two bars? It’s open late although so they could be making an attempt to attract the nightlife crowd of the previous.
Bar Bludorn
We now have some restaurant teams which can be actually booming and once they do nice work, I’m right here for it! The homeowners of Bludorn and Navy Blue have expanded to incorporate Bar Bludorn. I really bumped into them on the Charleston Meals & Wine pageant they usually had been so heat to us particularly after we famous that we had been from Houston! Situated in Spring Department, visitors can count on a extra informal vibe with the identical degree of high quality dishes.
Late August
This simply could also be one of the crucial mentioned opening eating places in my circles. A part of the Lucille’s Hospitality Group, Late August was introduced a couple of years again as a part of the Ion growth in Midtown. Initially, Chef Daybreak Burrell of High Chef and Kulture fame was tapped to steer. Not gonna lie, I used to be SO enthusiastic about this idea. Chef Burrell is not a part of the undertaking (fairly a couple of folks have missed this piece!) nevertheless, Chef Chris Williams (the proprietor of Lucille’s) has introduced on Chef Sergio Hildago to steer the idea. The brand new menu will characteristic Mexican and African American delicacies.
It opened for lunch in late March and can have dinner beginning in April. I haven’t been but, however as you possibly can think about it’s high of my checklist. For these which can be intentional about visiting larger finish Black owned ideas, Late August will certainly match that.
Toca Madera

Birthday go to to the scottsdale location
Toca Madera presently has three open areas, (Scottsdale, LA and Vegas). I’ve been to ALL three as a result of I like this restaurant that a lot. The areas are stunning (I’m keen on the Scottsdale one) and the meals is nice as effectively. For the Scottsdale one, I cherished that it additionally became a nightlife spot, with a big lounge space. So you possibly can think about once I heard the announcement a couple of Houston location I actually screamed! There have been guarantees of a 2023 opening and now guarantees of a Spring 2024 inside the brand new Thompson Resort off of Allen Parkway. I haven’t seen a gap date but, BUT I did see a hiring truthful promoted on their Instagram. So with a bit of luck, we can have our personal Toca Madera by April, so put it in your checklist.
Fast Spots
Listed below are a few others, that maybe aren’t new, to contemplate.
Baso comes up on a whole lot of lists of recent eating places, and it’s good, not going to lie! Nonetheless, the service left one thing to be desired throughout my go to. My expertise appears to be an anomaly based mostly on my mates so maintain that in thoughts. March is one other one which high of my checklist, maybe as a result of the title simply screams spring, or as a result of it was just lately ranked as a high restaurant by Meals & Wine. It’s been round for a bit although so I can’t name it new like a colonizer though it’s new to me! Additionally, native faves, Chop ‘N Block are opening a brick in mortar within the Montrose space within the coming weeks. It’s been so cool to observe them develop from pop ups, to a sales space inside the Submit to their very own area in a coveted space in Houston, make sure to examine them out.
