"Since opening in early April, nixtamalization specialist Maximo has become one of Houston’s most popular new restaurants. The collaborative effort between Benjy Levit and Dylan Murray of Local Foods, Eau Tour, and Lee’s Den’s, and chef Tony Luhrman, pays homage to Mexican and Texan heritage cooking, and the Gulf Coast region. The 1,500-square-foot space was packed on its first Friday afternoon after opening its doors on Tuesday, April 9. Families from the surrounding West University community, couples, and young professionals seeking a new spot for happy hour waited patiently for a menu that’s already building an impressive reputation." - Kayla Stewart
