State of Grace Slightly Pushes Anticipated Opening Date

The initial September opening seems to be have been pushed a little closer to mid -October for the highly anticipated Ford Fry foray into the River Oaks dining scene, State of Grace.

The restaurant, set to be a Gulf-inspired coastal cuisine with a Southern touch, is showing signs of development and keeping in check with the overall aesthetic of the mid-century River Oaks strip it shares with fellow high-end hot spot Sid Mashburn.

A new sign was recently added to the exterior along the curved left-side of the building, along with silhouettes of two bucks placed along the right front of the restaurant. State of Grace is likely to be a posh spot given its zip code and the buzz around Fry's ability to create dining experience that are both visually stunning, inventive and down-right delectable.
