Kid-friendly neighborhood restaurants with playground areas and equipment

Some restaurants in and around the Energy Corridor area have the interests of grown-ups with kids in mind too -- and a big enough lot size for playgrounds or play areas. Among the family and kid-friendly eateries: Joe's Crab Shack on Highway 6; Las Ventanas off Texas 6 on Grisby Road, and Lupe Tortilla's Mexican Restaurant, which is located on the same street.

This restaurant has a note posted saying it is permanently closed. It's quite colorful still. At least a feast for the eyes (and the lens).

New restaurant openings along Katy Freeway: Tony's, El Rancho, Food on Top of Golf

Margarita heaven after the cafe binge? 


Following a wave to new restaurant starts on Eldridge Parkway in 2012 -- predominantly cafes, the entrepreneurial frenzy seems to have shifted a little farther West toward Katy, with several new food and beverage operations on the way -- if not already completed -- on the North side of outbound I-10 past Highway 6.

Two more spots offering Mexican cuisine -- Tony's Mexican Restaurant and El Rancho - will enhance the South-of-the-border culinary panorama in this West Houston area that is currently seeing a construction boom that has dotted the horizon with cranes.

Not that the Energy Corridor does not already cater to Tex-Mex-craving palates with several existing establishments: 
    
Fiesta Sombrero's Grill y Cantina on Park Row, and two in the Grisby restaurant square in the SE corner of the Katy Freeway-Texas 6 interchange: Lupe Tortilla's  and Las Ventanas
not to mention the Poblanos Mexican Cafe farther South on Eldridge, and two on Memorial Drive: La Hacienda and Ninfa's Mexican Restaurant.

And then there is that gigantic new club swinger's paradise - TopGolf Houston. It's a golfing venue, alright, and a high-tech one at that, not to mention the enormous nets that have altered the skyline; but the newly erected leisure venue with landmark pretensions has food service as well to complement the fun, -- and drinks of course.
