Houston Govinda\u2019s to Receive Grand Opening in March.
\nThe new Govinda\u2019s restaurant at the ISKCON temple complex in Houston, Texas is set to receive a grand opening on March 11th, just before Gaura Purnima, with local TV channels, newspapers and radio stations to get a free meal and tour.
\nGovinda\u2019s already had its \u201csoft opening\u201d back in July 2016, launching with no fanfare or advertising. But according to manager Shyamasundara Das it\u2019s been a success from day one, often packing out the large 130-person capacity space, and drawing a 4.6 rating from 121 reviews on Yelp and a 4.7 rating from 71 Google reviews. What\u2019s more, 95% of its customers are locals of non-Indian extraction.<\/p>\n

Much of this success is due to the fact that Govinda\u2019s is offering people something different. First off, there\u2019s its exotic setting: the restaurant\u2019s bright red awning sits against the backdrop of the 24,000 square-foot Radha-Nila-Madhava temple complex, its eighty-foot tall ornate dome rising into the sky.
