    Rice Village's transformation of its dining options takes another step forward this month. Sixty Vines, the Plano-based pizzeria and wine bar, announced it will open to the public on Monday, October 14.

     

    The 8,700-square-foot, two-story restaurant will occupy a new space next to The Gap at 2540 University Blvd. Design details include "raw woods" and "live greenery" along with a patio that's been designed to resemble a wine garden.

     

    Open for lunch, brunch, and dinner, the restaurant features an eclectic mix of shareable plates, entrees, and wood-fired pizzas. Favorites, according to the restaurant, include wood-fired cauliflower, meat and cheese boards, the Asian chicken chop salad, and the fig and proscuitto pizza. Houston will also be the first Sixty Vines location to include the Sonoma Room, a more intimate space on the restaurant's first floor with a separate menu of shareables, cheese, sandwiches, and desserts.

     

    True to its namesake, wine will flow freely. The restaurant will offer 51 wines on tap as part of 100 available by-the-glass. In addition, seven taps will be dedicated to beer, cider, and cold brew coffee.

     

    “Houston continues to be a city with one of the best dining landscapes in the nation,” said senior vice president of operations Lynn Brown in a statement. “We are excited for Sixty Vines to open in Rice Village and look forward to becoming part of this special community.”

     

    Sixty Vines is only the latest arrival as Rice Village turns over its restaurants. Earlier this year, California-based sandwich restaurant Mendocino Farms and salad concept Sweetgreen both made their debuts. Later this fall, Politan Row, a new food hall from the owners of St. Roch Market in New Orleans, will open with 10 restaurants, a cockail bar, and a coffee shop.

    FM Kitchen closes

    Inner loop pickleball bar expands into neighboring burger joint

    PKL Social has expanded into FM Kitchen & Bar.

    One of the inner loop’s most popular pickleball destinations is getting a makeover. PKL Social is expanding its footprint by claiming the space formerly occupied by FM Kitchen & Bar.

    Since both PKL Social and FM Kitchen share ownership and management, the name change unites the property under one brand. It focuses on PKL Social’s success in its first year-plus of operations and sheds the FM Kitchen brand that’s been serving up burgers, comfort food, craft beer, and cocktails since 2017. Although the change won’t officially take place until July 26, the building’s exterior is already sporting a fresh coat of paint with PKL Social’s branding.

    “It’s a direct response to the demand for more,” operating partner Jason Mok said in a statement. “We’ve conceptualized everything people have loved about FM Kitchen & Bar and PKL Social by creating a single concept and venue that brings it all together in an exciting, more seamless way.”

    Open since March 2024, PKL Social has four pickleball courts, big screen TVs for watching sports, and two, 140-inch LED video walls for big games and other events. The rebranding brings upgrades in the form of Full Swing golf simulators that will allow people to play golf and other games for an hourly rental fee.

    Some things will remain the same. The new PKL Social will still serve many of FM Kitchen’s most popular dishes, including its signature cheeseburger, smash burger, and weekend brunch items. Additions include on-trend items such as a chopped chicken Caesar wrap and a Buffalo chicken wrap, a fried shrimp basket, and a California-style burrito.

    Beverage options include cocktails, craft beer, and wine. Non-alcoholic options include beer, cocktails, oat milk lattes sourced from Tenfold Coffee, and a frozen strawberry lemonade.

    In terms of the venue’s layout, the patio bar and restaurant area that had been home to FM Kitchen will remain family-friendly. The court area around PKL Social’s original footprint will remain adults-only.

    “PKL Social is becoming so much more than a pickleball destination. It’s a sports bar and event-centric destination with high energy and excellent food,” Mok added. “With our new upgrades, we can offer customers everything from corporate events and happy hours to social events such as our game day and reality TV watch parties, popular bingo nights, and cold plunge socials. We are excited to expand these options even further to be a true social destination for all.”

    PKL Social will celebrate its expansion on July 26 with drink specials, raffle prizes, giveaways, a DJ, sips from brands including LALO Tequila, Athletic Brewing Co., Beam Suntory, and more.
