Hedwig Village restaurant opens for dine-in service despite executive orders
HEDWIG VILLAGE – A Hedwig Village restaurant is defying state and county orders by offering a dine-in option. "We're trying to help open the economy, trying to get people back to work in the safest manner possible," said owner Matt Brice. Brice said he had opened the restaurant a few weeks before the orders went into place amid COVID-19. Houston At-Large Council Member Michael Kubosh said. Brice said he is not trying to break any laws and is supported by many Hedwig Village officials.
Restaurant plans to reopen dine-in services Friday, despite Harris County stay-at-home orders
Following weeks of carry-out only, Federal American Grill will begin to offer a dine-in option for customers on Katy Freeway in Hedwig Village. Owner Matt Brice said he has decided to reject the Harris County's stay-at-home order, initially signed in mid-March. Brice said he has the support of Hedwig Village, including the mayor. Brice said it all comes down to fairness, which businesses were considered "essential" and which were not under County Judge Hidalgo's order. Still, Brice said he would comply with orders to cease dine-in options if enforced.
