Grayson St.) this fall.<\/p>\n<p>The new restaurant, named after the historic bungalow\u2019s original owner, August Filleman, is a departure from the Mexican fare Galicia is most known for. According to a release, the menu will feature brasserie classics like prime rib, steak au poivre, a dry-aged burger paired with a martini at the bar, and oysters in the garden. Galicia says the fare was inspired by years of travel and his own cookbook collection.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Filleman House is the restaurant I&#8217;ve always craved to create,&#8221; Galicia said in a release. &#8220;After years of telling the stories of Mexico through Mixtli, I wanted to build something that reflects another part of who I am, not just as a chef, but as a diner. It&#8217;s the kind of place I want to eat in every day.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"shortcode-media shortcode-media-rebelmouse-image\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"b2343\" data-rm-shortcode-id=\"2c9a6d4593c847d364e32d1bafde1e34\" data-rm-shortcode-name=\"rebelmouse-image\" class=\"rm-shortcode rm-lazyloadable-image \" lazy-loadable=\"true\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" data-runner-src=\"https:\/\/sanantonio.culturemap.com\/media-library\/filleman-house-bar.jpg?id=67614273&amp;width=980\" width=\"1601\" height=\"1200\" alt=\"Filleman House bar\"\/> <small class=\"image-media media-caption\" placeholder=\"Add Photo Caption...\">Lauren Beckman will lead the beverage program.<\/small><small class=\"image-media media-photo-credit\" placeholder=\"Add Photo Credit...\">Rendering courtesy of Filleman House<\/small><\/p>\n<p>Lauren Beckman, who received the 2024 Michelin Guide Texas Service Award, will join Filleman House as the beverage director, offering both a high-octane and zero-proof cocktail program.
