Newly Opened Restaurants in the Houston Area

HOUSTON (Stacker) — Many families across the country have restaurant traditions, whether it’s returning to the same place year after year for birthdays, Sunday morning brunches at a favorite local restaurant or Friday night pies at a neighborhood pizzeria.

While many diners like to visit the same restaurants every year, month, or even week, others also want to try something new. Today’s consumers “are looking for new taste experiences that excite their palate and provide a respite from their daily routine,” Stacey Kinkaid, vice president of product development and innovation at US Foods, said in a statement. “The global flavor trend demonstrates this, as diners seek discovery and escape from the ordinary.”


US Foods, a leading national foodservice distributor, surveyed 1,000 people who reflect the demographic makeup of the general U.S. population regarding their dining and takeout habits. They found that the average person dines out about three times a month for a wide range of reasons, from socializing, to having a nice atmosphere, to celebrating something special, or avoiding work. cooking (and cleaning afterwards).

As for the types of restaurants they tend to dine at, topping the list are casual restaurants (62%), followed by fast food (57%) and fast casual (54%). Contemporary casual (32%) and bars and grills (25%) round out the top five.
