"The Tasting Room’s Uptown park location will close on May 30 after 17 years in business. The wine room and restaurant is the latest in a series of closures compounded by the coronavirus outbreak, according to the Houston Chronicle. The restaurant, which was founded in 2003, was the first for owners Jerry and Laura Lasco, who later went on to open Max’s Wine Dive and a number of other Tasting Room locations." - Brittanie Shey
