Officials with Berg Hospitality Group, whose Houston-area concepts include B&B Butchers & Restaurant and B.B. Lemon, have announced plans for two new concepts coming to Washington Avenue in Houston.
Construction is underway at 1818 Washington Ave., Houston at the site where both a new upscale Chinese restaurant and a British Caribbean rooftop lounge are slated to open in April. The venues will be located next door to B&B Butchers, according to a Jan. 26 press release from Berg Hospitality.
The Chinese eatery, Benny Chows, will be located in a 5,489-square-foot space on the first and second floors of the building. The menu will focus on Cantonese food "with a nod to Houston dining culture," according to the release. Dishes will include dumplings, fried rice and noodle dishes, as well as rotating seasonally inspired dishes. The eatery will also have a Peking duck room.
“Growing up in New York, there were three types of comfort food: Italian, bagels and Chinese,” Berg Hospitality founder Benjamin Berg said in a statement. “I wanted to bring an ingredient-driven approach to the American Chinese food I grew up eating but with top notch service and a vibrant atmosphere.”
