This month …

An intimate Montrose cocktail bar expands its offerings with an aperitivo-influenced, reservation-only tasting experience made to feel like an escape. Meanwhile, a longtime Houston favorite brings its Mexican and Tex-Mex staples to The Woodlands with sleeker, more contemporary vibes. And one of the city’s fastest-growing hospitality groups steps beyond sushi with a casual new izakaya in Upper Kirby. These are the tables — and bar seats — worth booking this month.

Toga

New Opening
Upper Kirby

Comma Hospitality — the great minds behind Neo, Kira, and Oru — continues its quick expansion in Houston with this lively izakaya-style concept located next to Kira in Arrive River Oaks. Departing from its more sushi-forward sister restaurants, Toga leans into Japanese pub fare, focusing mainly on yakitori grilled over binchotan fire, agemono (deep-fried dishes), and other shareable hot and cold selections. One standout is the Toga burger: a decadent stack of wagyu, Comté, tomato marmalade, and dashi aioli in a pillowy potato bun. A sharp, Japanese-inspired cocktail and beverage program ties it all together.

Clarkwood

Looking for a more immersive cocktail experience? You’ll find it at the Arc Room, hidden inside the Clarkwood patio bar. This intimate, Resy-only tasting experience is inspired by Italy’s aperitivo tradition, a pre-meal ritual meant to awaken the palate and stimulate the appetite. Each 90-minute seating includes a progression of five curated cocktails that are thoughtfully presented and paired with seasonal bites. The idea is simple: to make you feel transported somewhere far beyond Houston, without ever leaving your seat.

Spanish Flowers – The Woodlands

Founded in 1979 by Mary L. Bernal — and later joined by the Hernandez family in 2009 — Spanish Flowers has long been a go-to for traditional Mexican and Tex-Mex cooking. Each location reflects its surrounding neighborhood, and the newest outpost at The Woodlands Mall brings a more contemporary aesthetic to the beloved local chain. Guests can still expect the warm hospitality and comforting classics Spanish Flowers is known for, alongside an expanded menu featuring more seafood dishes and chef-driven specialties. Add an ice-cold margarita to your order and it’s a win-win.

Johnny Rita's

Excellent Tex-Mex and Mexican fare abound in H-Town, and recently, the city welcomed this new entrant. It’s the latest venture from restaurateur Christopher “Chico” Ramirez, paying homage to his family’s roots and memories of gatherings that revolved around home-cooked meals. Chef-partner Jesús Salinas leads the kitchen, serving Tex-Mex favorites, Baja-style seafood, and Oaxacan classics such as fajitas al carbon, char-grilled octopus tacos, and savory chicken mole.

Duckys Jr

Piping-hot pizzas, ice-cold beers, a fully stocked bar, and plenty of TVs for game day — Ducky’s Pizza & Tavern checks all the boxes for a new Montrose favorite. The sister spot to Ducky McShweeney’s Pub took over the former Riel space in fall 2025, transforming the location into a laid-back hangout. Expect freshly baked New York–style pies from classic Margherita to Texas-inspired barbecue brisket. With hours from lunch through late night, it’s an ideal stop between meetings or for unwinding after work.

CASA Bar and Grill

For fine dining that is certified kosher, CASA Bar and Grill delivers. Chef–owner Dovid Wohlgelernter brings a well-traveled perspective to the kitchen, shaped by his upbringing in La Jolla, catering work in New York, and time spent traveling the globe as a private chef. The wide-ranging menu here reflects those experiences, featuring everything from spiced ground lamb flatbread and birria tacos to chicken pot pie and dry-aged steaks. Pro tip: Save room for dessert because the molten lava cake and churro doughnuts are non-negotiable.

Fiora's Bottle Shop

This charming wine bar in the Montrose Collective mixed-use development is already a local favorite, thanks to its expertly curated selection of bottles spanning both the New World and the Old World. But the food is reason enough to linger, too. Made to pair with the drinks, the menu features shareable plates like charcuterie boards, housemade dips, and cheeses, along with Fiora’s famed stuffed deli sandwiches.

Good God, Nadine’s

This charming Heights cocktail bar comes from hospitality veterans behind Verdegreens, a two-acre organic and hydroponic farm on Houston’s Northside. Naturally, the bar uses ingredients sourced straight from the farm and other local purveyors for its seriously bold cocktails. Channeling the vibes of “everyone’s favorite eccentric aunt,” the bar’s vintage interior and comforting Gulf Coast–influenced bites are sure to enchant visitors.
