The details
Confessions Restaurant & Lounge will offer a chef-driven menu, artisanal cocktails and rotating DJs to contribute to a lively atmosphere, according to a March 20 news release on the opening.
The venue will feature a main dining room, a private dining space with intimate seating for 42 people and an outdoor "Greek-chic, Mediterranean" patio with a swing and a retreat-style ambience, per the release.
The concept was created by Sterling Lewis, who boasts 12 years of experience in the entertainment industry. His vision for Confessions is to elevate Houston's hospitality landscape through their service, dining options and social atmosphere, he said in the release.
"Hospitality should be more than just service, it should be an experience,” Lewis said in a statement. “At Confessions, we focus on three key pillars; moments, experiences and unreasonable hospitality. Every guest is part of our story and should feel like they’re part of something special, no matter the occasion."
The food program at Confessions showcases Southern American cuisine with a global twist, per the release.
Signature dishes will include steakhouse sliders with blue cheese and beef bacon; oxtail lo mein; spicy rigatoni with Cajun-infused tomato gravy and sautéed peppers; and lamb chop Rockefeller in a white wine butter sauce. Side dishes will include strawberry cornbread and candied yams.
To finish the meal, Confessions will serve dessert options such as a triple layer chocolate cake, deep-fried bread pudding and Biscoff cheesecake, per the release.
Confessions will also provide a late-night experience with food and mocktail options until 4 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. This is not geared for an after-hours club experience, but a destination for refined yet vibrant late-night dining, per the release.
