"A retro cocktail lounge in the heart of Montrose, this casual gem is a go-to spot for smash burgers and inventive drinks. Its menu is simple yet enticing, with highlights like the Bon Appétit cocktail, a mix of avocado-infused vodka, falernum, mint, and lemon, or the Not Your Dad’s Old Fashioned, a hibiscus twist on the classic. Pair your drink with the Rodeo Burger, topped with American cheese, bacon, jalapenos, and a spicy barbecue sauce, or choose the house burger featuring a patty made with brisket, short rib, and chuck. Swing by before 7 p.m. to score the best bargain on the menu: a classic smash-burger with fries for just $7.zxc" - Brianna Griff
"It says it all there in the name — this is Not Your Dad’s Old Fashioned ($14). This herbaceous riff features hibiscus-infused rye for a slightly tart edge, balanced by the cherry notes of Luxardo and the unmistakable black licorice bite of Fernet. It’s a modern take on a time-honored favorite. Arrive before 7 p.m. to take advantage of Jethro’s $7 smashburger and fries combo." - Brianna Griff
"This Montrose cocktail lounge is a great place to grab a drink, but its smash burgers might be its secret weapon for getting bargoers in the door. Diners can be seen lining up at the bar to order its classic burger, which features a juicy patty made up of a blend of brisket, short rib, and chuck roast that’s loaded on toasted brioche with a creamy house burger sauce, pickles, and American cheese. Other styles of burgers ($9 to $14) are available, too. The Rodeo burger is topped with bacon, American cheese, jalapeno, and a smoky barbecue sauce, while the OKC double cheeseburger offers a combination of grilled onions, American cheese, and mayo. Know before you go: Score an unbeatable deal before 7 p.m. on any day of the week, when its signature smash burgers and fries are $7." - Brittany Britto Garley
"This new casual Montrose haunt hits on all of the things that Houstonians love in a good cocktail lounge. In addition to beer and wine, bargoers can enjoy their favorite classic cocktails or find a new favorite on the signature cocktail list to enjoy on Jethro’s patio. Summery drinks include the Sweet Like Peachtree, a vodka cocktail made with peach puree, lemon, ginger beer, and simple syrup, and the fruity Not Your Dad’s Old Fashioned, a pairing of hibiscus-infused rye whiskey, fernet, Luxardo, simple syrup, and angostura. And when hunger strikes, Jethro’s keeps the food menu short and savory, with chicken tenders, fries, and its signature smash burger with a juicy patty made with short rib, brisket, and chuck steak." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Visit this cocktail lounge before 7 p.m., and you’ll spot diners lining up at the bar for an unbeatable deal.
