Murray’s Pizza & Wine is a new artisan pizza concept brought to you from the great minds behind Leaf & Grain, and the exciting new community addition is expected to open this fall.
According to the Houston Business Journal, Murray’s Pizza & Wine is expected to open at 9655 Katy Freeway, Suite 3100, in the Memorial City area in October. The new concept sits right next door to the sixth Leaf & Grain co-owner, Deets Hoffman opened last week.
Murray’s, named after co-owner Hoffman’s wife-Murray Hoffman-is the company’s first venture into full-service dining.
The Houston-based restaurant company, Leaf & Grain, opened its first location in 2017. Since then, the Hoffmans have opened five more locations offering healthy salads and grain bowls. Now, the co-owners are taking on a whole new concept with Murray’s Pizza & Wine set to also open on Katy.
While the focus will be on pizzas, fine wines, and craft beers, there will still be a little piece of Leaf & Grain in nearly every bite of the dishes being served at the new eatery. The beloved bread that comes with many of the main dishes at Leaf & Grain, will also be featured in the pizza dough. The new pizza spot will also have a cocktail menu.
According to its website, the idea is to create a “neighborhood pizza & small plates restaurant” which focuses on “thoughtful sourcing, attention to detail, great people, and gracious hospitality.” The restaurateurs have enlisted the support of a long list of New York restaurant and bar industry consultants to get the bar program and its offerings up to par.
