About
The highly anticipated sibling restaurant to Gatlin’s BBQ, Gatlin’s Fins & Feathers is the new concept from acclaimed chef-owner Greg Gatlin. The restaurant is nestled in Historic Independence Heights, where Gatlin’s father and family grew up. Gatlin will serve fried chicken as crispy as it is tender to mouthfuls of fresh local oysters, Gatlin’s Fins & Feathers brings together Texas comfort food and Gulf Coast catches for a menu that is quintessentially Houston.
The menu––created by Gatlin, Gatlin BBQ Executive Chef Michelle Wallace, and Fins & Feathers’ Chef de Cuisine Darius King––is a mouthwatering testament to traditional Southern fare’s modern inclusiveness. The expansive list of starters is sure to set the tone with Chargrilled Oysters to New Orleans BBQ Shrimp or try the Not My Momma’s Biscuits with seasonal jams. The Clucker is Gatlin’s spin on a charcuterie board. Their menu also includes head-turning soups and salads, showstopping Sandos, and an extensive list of entrees from fried chicken to catfish, all promising generous plates of nostalgia. It is the New South, in full possession of its delicious diversity.
“Here on the Gulf Coast, it’s so nice to have somewhere in your neighborhood where you can get fresh, great seafood. I also think everybody remembers who had the best fried chicken in their town when they were growing up––maybe it was their own grandma. We want to tap into that and make you feel the same way when you eat ours.”
