12 New Restaurants To Go This SuperBowl Weekend

2/2/2017

Comments

 
Restaurants To Go In Super Bowl Weekend
With upcoming Super Bowl weekend, a lot of new restaurants & bars are coming to Houston! Yay!
Especially, Avenida Houston (the place between George R. Brown Convention Center and Discovery Green) will be very busy, and many of the places I want to introduce are around downtown Houston. 


Oh by the way, did you know it's illegal to promote "buy one get one free alcohol" in Texas?
Also, you will see a lot of alcohol commercials, but you won't see people inside the commercials actually drinking those alcoholic beverages. Why? Because those companies don't want the consumers to feel like they should drink! I learned these two facts in my beverage marketing class I am taking this semester. Thought I'd share :) 

So without further ado, let's get right into these 12.



1. Tongue Cut Sparrow
Location: 310 Main St. Houston TX 77002 [second floor, above “the pastry war”]
Type: an ambitious & formal cocktail bar
Fun fact: Bar only has 25 seats
Opening: According to their Instagram/FB, they will open on Feb. 8 with full menu
Phone: (713) 321-8242
Super Bowl: during the week, they will only have walk-ins and limited-menu

History: Tongue Cut Sparrow is by "Bobby Heugel", the owner of Anvil bar & Refuge
So, in case you are wondering (I was curious too actually)

Last but not least, I want to introduce you to this awesome app, OpenTable!!!

You can make reservations and leave reviews (only once you dined in using Open Table). 
From my experience, it is easier to use on your phone than on your laptop.

In case you want to download it, I will link the app for Android right here, & for iPhone here. 


Also, when you make reservations you can earn up to 1,000 points!!!! 

Points Guide:
  • Once you earn up to 2,000 points
