“As a longtime Harlem resident, I believe the presence of mom-and-pop shops is vital to maintaining a sense of community in our neighborhood.

Tiny restaurants and intimate bars are trending in Houston

By Andreas Milano 2 months ago

Intimate dining in Houston usually translates to romantic settings with soft lighting and plush décor. But a new wave of restaurants with very limited seating and specific service and menu offerings might become the new darlings.
