After Mega Reno, Prime Post Oak Plot Announces Its Next Five Tenants

Post Oak Plaza

ONE OF THE most highly trafficked corners in the city has undergone a tremendous transformation over the past five years, and it's nearing completion.

Post Oak Plaza, located on the southeast corner of Post Oak at San Felipe, has been reimagined to be a more pedestrian-friendly experience, one bolstered by the addition of the Zadoks' Post Oak Place and the continued evolution of BLVD Place. The newest openings at the LEVCOR-owned Post Oak Plaza include new outposts of the Umami-happy Rakkan Ramen, taqueria fave Tacodeli, and beloved staple Local Foods (with a huge patio!).

Luxury mattress purveyor Saatva also opened a 4,000-square-foot "viewing room" in the development, showcasing their handcrafted mattresses and eco-friendly bedding alongside high-end furnishings and tech-savvy offerings. And a new interactive appliance showroom has nearly 15,000 square feet of the best Bosch, Thermador and Gaggenau products.

These new additions bring the total occupancy of the BRR Architects-designed center to 98 percent; restaurants and home retailers make up the majority of tenants. Arhaus, Bassett Furniture, Home Source, Kohler and Madison Lily are among the other furniture and home stores here, while Bluestone Lane, Balboa Surf Club, il Bracco, Kenny & Ziggy's and Nando's Peri Peri are dishing out good eats for Galleria-area visitors.

“BON APPETIT!” Julia Child always exclaimed at the close of her famous television show The French Chef. The beloved icon is sorely missed for sharing her passion for French cookery — and butter and wine — with America in the early ’60s. But her legacy lives on with the Julia Child Award, created by The Julia Child Foundation for Gastronomy and the Culinary Arts in 2014.

A COWBOY IS made in eight seconds. That's the time required in a competition to stay on a bull to count as a “ride.” Any less than that is a failure. Professional bull rider Boudreaux Campbell, who grew up in The Woodlands, knows all too well that riding a live bucking bull is nothing like a scene out of The Urban Cowboy.
