Jack in the Box has opened in Houston. The location marks the 90th for franchise group HV Restaurants, led by partners Manny Colorado and Mohammed Ahmed. The group has experienced significant growth with the QSR brand and hopes to add 10 to 15 additional units to their portfolio by 2025, according to a press release.

"I could not be more excited to grow alongside this fun and unique brand that thinks outside the box, as we bring the Jack in the Box experience to communities across Houston," Colorado said in the release. "Houston is a diverse city ripe with development opportunity and we're ready to welcome guests into our new location. My love for Jack in the Box dates back to my childhood and I have countless memories enjoying the brand's tacos and innovative menu. I look forward to watching those in the community build their own Jack in the Box memories at our new Houston location."

The restaurant features the bells and whistles of Jack in the Box's new-builds including mixed seating styles, decorative pendant lighting and wall collages, as well as fresh interior finishes.

"We're looking to expand throughout Houston and give more guests an opportunity to try our unique menu and Manny and HV Restaurants are exactly the types of partners we need to help us grow," Darin Harris, CEO of Jack in the Box, said in the release. "They bring energy and passion and their dedication to the brand is evident in everything they do. The group has built a strong portfolio of restaurants across Texas and has shown the same level of care and commitment to each location, ensuring top-tier service and quality across the board. We're very excited for their continued growth with Jack in the Box and look forward to seeing the success of their new Houston restaurant."
