The River Oaks outpost of the original Liberty Kitchen in the Heights has become popular in its own right for a massive oyster bar, buzzy happy hour, and a brunch menu that begins at 9 a.m. on the weekends, with creative dishes such as breakfast dumplings stuffed with scrambled eggs, andouille sausage, bacon and cheese and a mac 'n' cheese-filled omelet. Don't forget Fido, either; the patio is pet-friendly and your pup will be begging for bites of LKO's giant cheeseburgers and steamed Maine lobsters.
