"Expect to see Dallas-based taqueria Velvet Taco popping up more around Houston, beginning with a new shop at 2001 N. Shepherd Drive in the Heights this fall; the offbeat taco chain is moving into a former Jack in the Box space located near the new Heights H-E-B. This will be the first drive-in Velvet Taco in Houston, with outdoor seating too, and the Shepherd Drive location is expected to start serving fish n’ chips tacos this October. Velvet Taco President Clay Dover said more locations are in the works (he was mum on the exact Houston locations), and the chain currently operates two restaurants in Houston, one on Washington Avenue and another in Montrose." - Adele Chapin
