The Kyle Economic Development agency announced April 22 that Walk-On’s Sports Bistreaux will be opening a new location in Kyle in late 2022 as part of a restaurant incentive program. This will be the second restaurant to take advantage of the program, behind Z’Tejas Southwest Grill, which was announced at the end of 2021.

The restaurant incentive program provides a 100% sales tax rebate—or partial refund—for the first three years of business, according to a press release.

The new approximately 8,000-square-foot restaurant will be located at the corner of FM 1626 and Kohlers Crossing.

The restaurant was founded by Louisiana State University basketball walk-ons Brandon Landry and Jack Warner in 2003. In 2015, NFL quarterback Drew Brees joined as co-owner.

Walk-On’s offers Cajun and Creole dishes made from scratch, including catfish, crawfish, po’boys and more.

“We are excited to welcome Walk-On’s Sports Bistreaux to our community,” Mayor Travis Mitchell said in the press release. “Walk-On’s will not only offer residents a family-friendly, sit-down dining option, but another great place to spend game day in Kyle.”
