"By “restaurants that have been ignoring the precautions,” Alexis means spots like Bottled Blonde, which have been repeatedly investigated by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission over violating COVID-19 protocols." - Amy McCarthy
"Bottled Blonde, a bar that recently opened in Houston, had its liquor license suspended for 30 days by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission. The suspension followed a failed inspection where the bar was found not enforcing social distancing and allowing unmasked patrons, violating Gov. Greg Abbott's COVID-19 guidelines. The bar has a history of similar issues, with past violations at its Scottsdale and Dallas locations, and legal challenges at its Chicago location, which closed in July 2020." - Amy McCarthy
"Bottled Blonde in Deep Ellum is mentioned as a place that has become more crowded due to applying under the TABC waiver to operate as a restaurant." - Amy McCarthy
"Controversial Deep Ellum bar Bottled Blonde is now under investigation by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission over allegedly violating Gov. Greg Abbott’s rules for restaurant operations during the COVID-19 pandemic." - Amy McCarthy
"As soon as bars and restaurants were allowed to reopen at even 25 percent capacity back in May, diners crowded spots like Gloria’s Latin Cuisine in Colleyville and Deep Ellum bar Bottled Blonde, completely ignoring social distancing guidelines." - Amy McCarthy
