Le Calamar, a new venture from the team behind Underdog, will take over the shuttered Korean restaurant‘s South 1st Street space on Thursday, May 29.
Here’s what to know before booking a reservation.
What’s on the menu?
Dubbed “a Texan perspective on the modern French bistro,” the new restaurant’s menu features starters like oysters charentaise, main courses like grilled trout, and a daily selection of charcoal-cooked cuts.
Boozy beverages
Curated by acclaimed sommelier Richard Hargreave, Le Calamar’s wine list boasts French, Mexican, and Texas bottles from independent growers. Cocktails fall into three main categories: martinis, Manhattans, and mezcals.
Happy hour
Enjoy $10 martinis, $3 St. Elmo Carl’s, and daily specials + bar snacks from 4 to 5:30 p.m. daily. The late-night happy hour features the same deals from 10 to 11 p.m. on Thursdays and from 10 p.m. to 12 a.m. Friday-Saturday.
