    Sometimes a person needs infinity mimosas: Houston's best bottomless brunches

    OK, I should come clean; my motivations behind this particular story are selfish. I was making dressy plans for Sunday brunch when I got to thinking how great it would be to have a comprehensive list of bruncheries (it's a word, now) that offer bottomless bevs. So without further ado, the best bottomless brunches H-town has to offer:

    Michelangelo's — This little Italian restaurant at 307 Westheimer has existed in the same location for 40 years. The only thing better than the live tree growing through the middle of the converted house are the bottomless mimosas at Italian-style Sunday brunch.

    Farrago's — Midtown eatery Farrago's, at 318 Gray St., serves bottomless brunch Saturday AND Sunday for $10. With a single costing $5, it'd be irresponsible not to indulge.

    Berryhill — Multiple locations make for easy access, but we recommend the Montrose location on the corner of Westheimer and Hawthorne for optimum recovery amongst mimosas, black bean nachos, feather boas and a patio DJ.

    t'afia — Hit it up Saturday for the outdoor market chef Monica Pope runs along with the Breakfast Klub and browse with mimosa in hand, or dabble in her funky ratafias — Texas wine and vodka infused with seasonal fruit.

    Hearsay — The ambiance may be high-end but for Sunday mornings we opt for Hearsay's Mac and Four cheese with our bottomless bellinis. Other options are mimosas and fleur de lis and oh, yeah, the rest of the menu.

    Tiny Boxwood's — Less a spot for weekend recovery than face time, Tiny Boxwoods, tucked away in Thompson & Hanson nursery, is the primo patio spot to get your money's worth among the greenery.

    Cyclone Anaya's — The trendiest of Tex-Mex offers bottomless mimosas and poinsettias and a mean migas con fajita. Locations are in Midtown at 309 Gray St., 1710 Durham, CityCentre and at the corner of Woodway and Augusta.

    Bottom's up!

    Editor's note: CultureMap recently debuted a feature that highlights some of the best, most interesting or unusual things in Houston in list form. You'll find everything from Cool Hotel Pools to Fab Farmers Markets on these curated CultureLists, which are featured in the far right column of every CultureMap.com page.

    The best bottomless brunches will become a CultureList soon. But first, you have a chance to tell us if we missed any that you think deserve to be included. Make the case for your favorite bottomless brunch by leaving a comment.

    Houston Tex-Mex staple now serving fajitas and margaritas at downtown hub

    El Tiempo is now open at Post Houston.

    One of Houston’s most popular Tex-Mex restaurants has opened a new location in downtown. El Tiempo Cantina is now open for lunch and dinner at at Post Houston, the mixed-use development in the historic Barbara Jordan post office.

    Open for lunch and dinner daily, El Tiempo occupies 7,500-square-foot, second-story space next to 713 Music Hall. It give the restaurant 18 Houston-area locations, including its presence at sports stadiums and George Bush Intercontinental Airport.

    The menu is slightly smaller than El Tiempo’s other locations, such as its downtown-adjacent outposts on Washington Ave. and Navigation Blvd. Designed for quick service to appeal to people attending events or concerts at Post Houston, it includes signature items such as fajitas, tacos, enchiladas, and margaritas. A few less popular dishes, including quail, lobster, and pork ribs, are not currently available

    The interior matches the look of other El Tiempo locations, with a dedicated bar area, a pressed tin ceiling, and Mexican-inspired art. It seats 230 people and features private dining rooms.

    “Post is a celebration of Houston creativity, culture, and cuisine,” El Tiempo president Roland Laurenzo said in a statement. “El Tiempo fits naturally into that story. We are honored to be part of this exciting space and look forward to serving both longtime patrons and new visitors to our restaurant.”

    Located at 401 Franklin Street, Houston real estate developer Lovett Commercial opened Post Houston in 2021. While the venue has a number of counter service restaurants in its food hall, it has lacked a full service restaurant since critically-acclaimed seafood restaurant Golfstrommen closed in early 2024.

    “We are thrilled to welcome El Tiempo, a beloved institution celebrated for its bold flavors and vibrant dining experience, to Post Houston,” general manager Meredith Powell said. “Post is a dynamic multicultural and entertainment destination in the heart of the city, and El Tiempo is a natural addition to our diverse culinary lineup.”

    El Tiempo opens daily at 11 am. It closes at 9 pm during the week and 10 pm on Friday and Saturday, but may stay open later to accommodate post-concert crowds.
