"A triple whammy. All three of Agricole Hospitality’s restaurants in East Downtown closed on Saturday, September 28. Agricole partners and owners, including culinary director Vincent Huynh, chef Ryan Pera, and beverage director Morgan Weber, announced on social media that they decided to close the restaurant after learning about the expansion of US Interstate 45, which will require eminent domain acquisitions. “We are incredibly proud of our talented and dedicated team, whose hard work and passion brought good times and great food to all of our guests,” they noted. The team is now working to connect staff with resources and assistance following the closures. Vinny’s Pizza opened in 2018 and has been Agricole’s longest-enduring restaurant in that area." - Brittany Britto Garley
"This EaDo pizza destination is a crust-lovers’ haven. Thick, doughy slices provide a solid base for hearty meats, veggies, and cheese. The provolone-topped classic pairs pepperoni and Italian sausage with mushrooms, red peppers, onions, and olives, while the Maui Wowie layers roasted pineapple with prosciutto and pickled jalapeños. Visit for lunch and enjoy a pizza-combo meal for a cool $11." - Brittany Britto Garley, Kayla Stewart

"Agricole Hospitality’s fast-casual pizza counter Vinny’s is a late-night hours spot, sandwiched between sister concepts Miss Carousel and Indianola. Find pizza shop staples like hot wings, meaty Italian sandwiches, red sauce pastas, and New York-style pies. Linger around —Vinny’s has beer, wine, and shots to keep the party going." - Megha McSwain, Nadia Gire
"Indianola, a 'modern Texas' restaurant, is hosting 'Dining in the Dark' events where diners experience a surprise menu blindfolded. The events aim to enhance sensory experiences and are held on September 15 and 29." - Brittany Britto Garley
