HOUSTON \u2013 Houston, do you remember the rooftop restaurant that sat on top of the Hyatt Regency Tower in downtown and provided 36-degree views of the city? <\/p>\n
I have some news for you… Spindletop Houston is reportedly making a comeback. <\/p>\n
According to a new Instagram page<\/a>, and the Hyatt Regency\u2019s website<\/a>, the restaurant will officially be back open to the public on May 15. <\/p>\n If you recall, the restaurant closed during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Spindletop first opened in 1972 on the 31st floor of the Hyatt at 1200 Louisiana St. Its name, location and distinctive rotating design were inspired by the Lucas Gusher at Spindletop. The 1901 oil discovery in Southeast Texas sparked the state\u2019s oil boom, transforming the economy and helping shape the Houston we know today.<\/p>\n Before closing during the pandemic, Spindletop was considered a romantic destination, known for blending Texas Gulf Coast flavors with European cuisine.<\/p>\n It\u2019s not clear what the menu will look like or many other details, but it looks like guests are able to make reservations on TOCK.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n Copyright 2026 by KPRC Click2Houston – All rights reserved.<\/p>\n
