State Fare
Gourmet Frito pie? Yes, please.
True to its name, Gateway Memorial’s newest dining concept State Fare brings an exciting combination of fun festival fare and Southern style dishes to Houston diners. The casual, family-friendly eatery, which took over the space previously housed by Pour Society, is already a hit among locals for its diverse menu spanning from tangy pickle dip with house-made BBQ chips and roasted Gulf oysters to the wildly popular Frito pie.
The mouthwatering menu lists over 70 tempting selections, but one of the more intriguing choices is a dish you most certainly won’t find anywhere else in the city. The larger than life Hicksburger beef pattie sandwich is a head turner with its layers of hot pastrami, Gruyère cheese, and chicken fried French fries. The meaty sandwich epitomizes the adventurous cuisine found at a good old-fashioned state fair.
