"A DFW mini‑chain's Lakewood outpost, owned by Vandelay Hospitality, will open July 28 at 4040 Abrams Road as its third location, joining original and Addison sites (the latter opened in 2018). The 4,500‑square‑foot space—previously an IHOP—includes a private dining room called the Pineapple Room. The menu mirrors the chain’s popular offerings, featuring cheeseburgers, super‑cold martinis, East Coast oysters, and weekend brunch; daily happy hour runs 3–6 p.m. with half‑price burgers and budget‑friendly oysters. At debut it will offer dine‑in and takeout service with typical weekday hours around 11 a.m.–9 p.m., extended hours Thursday–Friday 11 a.m.–10 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m.–10 p.m., and Sunday 10 a.m.–9 p.m." - Amy McCarthy
