Wahington Parq, a multi-faceted dining, arts and entertainment venue, is opening soon in Houston on Washington Avenue.

The details

Set to debut in early February, the venue will feature a collection of eateries, an outdoor art gallery and spaces for members of the community to gather, per an email from marketing representatives.

Owners Bryan Dorsey and Kim Razil Alejo want Houstonians to consider the venue as not just a dining hall, but more of an "experience compound."

"We focus on innovation," Alejo said. "We come from such different backgrounds, ... so we're like a melting pot of different experiences and we're continuously changing what that looks like. For us, it really is more than just a dining hall. It's really just about the experience."

The owners anticipate all of the concepts at Washington Parq will be fully operational by the spring, with some of the experiences being open 24-hours a day.
