"An establishment owned by a former colleague and business partner of the person indicted in April; it was the site of a June 2020 fire, and the former Turkey Leg Hut owner faces a federal indictment alleging arson in connection with that incident." - Brittany Britto Garley
"This nightlife venue was the site of a June 2020 fire that has prompted federal action: a person has been indicted on arson charges for an alleged role in the blaze, and a co-defendant has been charged in an alleged arson attempt related to the incident. The establishment was owned by a former colleague and business partner of the individual now facing federal charges." - Courtney E. Smith
"A commercial bar that suffered a major June 2020 explosion prosecutors allege resulted from an arson plot; investigators released video appearing to show four men with partially covered faces pouring gasoline on the deck floors, tables, chairs, and ramp before igniting it, causing nearly $1 million in damage, debris that struck nearby homes, and possible injuries to the suspects though no resident injuries were reported. The indictment says the fire was allegedly ordered and paid for by a former colleague and business partner of the accused." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Like any good clubstaurant, the Cajun-Creole spot Bar 5015 is built to handle even the rowdiest groups. The patio makes up 90% of this Third Ward spot, so plan to take your frozen daiquiris outdoors and turn up to whatever the DJ is mixing. On weekdays, there’s usually enough walk-in space for a casual kickback over some crispy hot wings, but if you want a guaranteed seat at the outdoor tables on the weekend, make a reservation ahead of time." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas, julie takahashi
"Like all the best Houston clubstaurants, the patio makes up roughly 85% of Bar 5015 in the Third Ward. Covered by hardworking awning, the patio has an ample amount of booths and tables, and with a walkup bar, there isn’t much reason to go inside of the restaurant, except maybe to use the restroom. Unless you thrive in environments where you’re all but shoulder-to-shoulder with strangers, the best time to come to Bar 5015 is right when they open on the weekdays, where you can have your pick of the seating options. And while we can’t quite explain the science, the frozen drinks do seem to taste better when they’re sipped outside." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
