Al Quick Stop, a Mediterranean restaurant “with a Houston twist”, has closed its second location. <\/p>\n
What happened<\/p>\n
The restaurant, which started as a convenience store when it opened in Montrose in 1991, opened its second location in The Heights in 2021. <\/p>\n

He added that the original location in Montrose will remain open. <\/p>\n
