Canadian chain JOEY is lining up a $9 million restaurant in Memorial City, according to a state construction filing, giving CityCentre Six a glossy new dining anchor in the process. The single-story, full-service spot is slated to cover roughly 7,700 square feet at 920 Town & Country Boulevard inside the new CityCentre Six office tower. Construction is scheduled to begin in August and, if those dates hold, wrap by April 30, 2027.
According to a filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, the project listed as “JOEY HOUSTON” (TABS2026017657) calls for a $9,000,000 tenant fit-out and commercial kitchen for a 7,709-square-foot space. The state record shows a planned start date of August 3, 2026, a completion date of April 30, 2027, and names TRM Architect as the design firm.
Where It Will Sit
The new JOEY buildout is slated for CityCentre Six, the 19-story office tower at 920 Town & Country that Midway recently completed and that has already pulled in major corporate leases. The Real Deal and commercial listings flag the building as a fast-moving hub for new retail and restaurants in West Houston, so a big-ticket restaurant tenant tracks with the direction of the project.
Joey's Texas Footprint
JOEY already has a presence in Houston: the brand lists an Uptown location at 5045 Westheimer Road that opened in 2021. JOEY shows the Galleria-area address on its site, and the chain expanded into Dallas in 2024 with a NorthPark Center restaurant reported by The Dallas Morning News.
Design And Scale
The TDLR record lists TRM Architect as the project designer, and TRM's portfolio includes national casual-dining work such as The Cheesecake Factory, suggesting the CityCentre location is likely aiming for a polished, large-format finish rather than a modest neighborhood nook. More on TRM's hospitality clients is available on the firm's site: TRM Architect.
Next Steps
The state filing names CityCentre North Venture Partners LP as the property owner and lists Alexander Fawcett as a tenant contact. The project was registered on April 14, 2026 and currently appears as "Project Registered" on the TDLR site, which also contains the owner and contact details referenced above. If the fit-out proceeds on schedule, the restaurant could be part of CityCentre's retail lineup by mid-2027, subject to permitting and tenant-fit timing.
If the deal holds, local diners and nearby office workers get another polished casual option, and CityCentre adds one more national brand to a growing West Houston cluster. The Houston Chronicle first reported the filing and its details today, and an official announcement from the developer or the restaurant would be the next logical step.
