Hai Hospitality is opening the first Houston location of the Asian smokehouse and bar Loro on Feb. 23 in the Heights at 1001 W 11th St., Houston.
The menu will feature a variety of meat, sandwich and rice bowl dishes that blend southeast Asian cuisine with traditional Texas barbecue.
The restaurant will also offer batch cocktails; boozy slushees; wine and sake on tap; a selection of bottle and draft beer; and desserts. A menu exclusively available during happy hour will be offered on Mondays through Fridays from 2-6 p.m.
According to a Feb. 7 press release, Loro is replacing the former 11th Street Church of God. The eatery preserves and highlights the original structure while offering indoor and outdoor seating for guests.
