Once a forgotten area of town, today Upper Kirby and the adjacent Greenway Plaza area are at the center of Houston's growth. The multi-use West Ave project is the heart of Upper Kirby with its assortment of excellent restaurants and fine boutiques. Rub elbows with the post-work crowd at Oporto Café or Upper Kirby’s Downing Street Pub, where preppy patrons smoke cigars and unwind at the end of a long day. Or enjoy dinner at one of the city's celebrated restaurants Tony's.
