Restauranteur Shawn Virene put the POP into Houston with his wildly successful a’Bouzy. This champagne-fueled spot located in the tony River Oaks neighborhood of town attracts a stylish crowd all day. The bar is always bustling and the patio echoes with the cry – “a Bouzy!” every time a bottle is sabered tableside. In fact, most tables will have multiple wine buckets close by, keeping the bubbly cool. The fresh, ripe American menu features seasonal seafood, salads, small-shareable plates, large raw bar and prime meats. The wine list curated by Virene, is both the best-priced on bubbly and wines in the city. The interiors have a sophisticated rustic vibe with exposed brick, reclaimed woods and a color palate of creams and blues. The effervescent appeal of bubbles is reflected in a light installation that mimics bubbles floating overhead. The spacious patio is a magnet for the stylish clientele that enjoy the year-round garden. The best thing is Champagne and wine is at or below retail

    Fantastic experience at the Bloom & Bee for Valentine’s Day! Erica took great care of waiting on us and Grant stopped by to visit with us. The pre-fix menu was tasty and delightful with perfect wine pairings. The musicians playing the piano and harp only added to the lovely ambience. The bouquet of flowers as a parting gift was an extra special touch to make the evening even more memorable.

    I hope this place stays around longer than el teimpo , Ninfas , Lupe’s etc. this place is pure perfection. I have been 3xs already. Blanco sangria is my favorite ! The margaritas are amazing. My favorite appetizer is the arepas. We’ve had a few plates. All so yummy. I mean last night we had salads. I’m convinced no one can do a tasty salad like Mexican sugar. Everyone do yourself a favor and try this place.
