It's the same building as Harvey Washbangers. It was good but they were often not open during their posted hours.

I tried to ignore that

I always pictured Rock Prairie as the northern boundary but I don't make the rules around this place.

We are currently working on sourcing all local products and are very excited to work with the BCS community on all aspects of our project. Please reach out either to me on here or to jim@debacasteakhouse.com!
The menu will be locally sourced, high-quality fare. Think classic steakhouse with a modern twist! We'll offer an extensive wine list plus a full bar and a private dining room for events.
Sneak peak menu item: One of the stars of our menu is the table-side chateaubriand, recently featured in The Best of Aggieland cookbook!
Groundbreaking ceremony should be in the next couple of weeks and then construction will begin in earnest! Let me know if you have any specific questions I can answer!
"Tableside chateaubriand"? Okay, I'm curious. I know the cut of meat, what's the "tableside" mean?

I'm guessing tableside means they cut your portion by the table. Mobile carving station.
Does anyone know what is going on next to the Midas on Texas?

Sounds like it? Either way - they had me at steak!

Yes, we will carve and serve table-side using a mobile carving station!

Sounds wasteful.

Very! We're consistent with the latter, not the former, definition! We won't be wasting meat to make a different steak
Has there been any news on the plans for University and Boyett? I imagine the remediation work is close to being done, if not already finished.

Last time we spoke with the city working on our barrier for our Jumbotron they said they hadn't received plans from the developer yet….

In regards of new developments in bcs, are there any other forums, real estate groups, or networking groups on social media? Or the best way to find out when a new development is coming to town.
Literally, this thread

I created this thread over a decade ago because I curious as to what was coming to town more than anything. After this thread became so popular I remember a blogger created a blog that showed pretty much this thread but in more in-depth detail. I don't know if he still has it, but I believe he had several versions of it under different names. Also kind of saw KBTX take note and began reporting on things mentioned on here.
If I find that blog/website I'll post it here. I know I haven't been keeping up with the front page as much, but work and life get in the way.
this board is the sole source of anything that is going on in BCS, it's where the Eagle and KBTX gets their local news from.Chan_VW said:

Whole Fried Chicken on Rock Prairie is closed until further notice.
That's sad to hear. I went a few times and it was good! I really liked the owner. I could never tell if they were opened or not because they always had the dark blinds closed and you couldn't see in from the street.agman845 said:

Bring back Must Be Heaven!!
Rusty swears up and down he doesn't follow this thread
Anybody have a northgate hi rise update? I know the 20 story one is scheduled to begin construction next year I believe.

That's genuinely sad to hear. They were unique, in a community that is obsessed with fried chicken.
Went to Wingstop on University last night and saw a bunch of notices on Marco's Pizza. Was too tired to go see what they said, but I see their FB page is saying they are permanently closed?
Why yes, yes I really do run the best (and only) BCS ICEE Guide!
I tried to order from there last night and that location isn't on the app anymore. It's still on the main website though.
I don't think there have been any updates since May when I updated the Northgate high rise thread:Bones2012 said:

3 new pickleball courts are better than nothing, but there needs to be more. The 4 permanent outdoor courts at Austin's Colony are constantly full with many people waiting.
The new entertainment complex being built in Bryan's Midtown park will have 3-4 indoor and 3-4 outdoor courts I believe.
