Restaurants of 4527 Lomitas Street (Houston, Texas)

The original 4527 Lomitas Street was this apartment building. (Houston Chronicle, 09/23/1951).
I've updated Carbon-izer.com again. Most of the action in Houston focuses on North Freeway and Gulf Freeway, but Southwest Freeway still received an update.

Among the many restaurants facing Southwest Freeway, we have what is currently a Twin Peaks; however, it doesn't have a Southwest Freeway address and is currently ineligible to be added to that list. Instead, it's Lomitas Drive, a small street functioning as an alley to the nearby restaurants.

4527 Lomitas Street has served as a variety of restaurants (with one exception) over the years. After replacing the circa-1951 apartment building that sat in the lot, the first restaurant to be in the spot was a Cajun restaurant named Gator's (opened 1987), but in 1991 it closed and was replaced by a new location of Pico's Mexican Restaurant (better known as Pico's Mex-Mex). Around 1996-1997 it closed and became Scottsdale's Restaurant in 1998. Scottsdale's retooled in early 2000 as "The Field House Restaurant & Bar" By 2000 Scottsdale's had closed and reopened as The Field House Restaurant & Bar, a more sports bar-style establishment (with some changes, such as discarding the notorious practice of charging for bread...but that only operated for less than two months. El Buen Bife Grill ("Argentine Steak House & Tango Bar") opened in October 2001. This renamed to simply "Argentina Grill" in late 2002 and closing around the end of 2004. Oddly, in the mid-2000s (to the late 2000s) this was Fish Gallery (fish and aquarium supplies—not a restaurant!) before a renovation to Twin Peaks around 2011-2012, which has been here since, and surviving the bankruptcy of parent company FAT Brands, which had acquired it in 2020.
