Around Galleria

When searching for housing options in Galleria, there are many to choose from. For families looking for a place to settle, subdivisions along San Felipe offer four to five bedroom options with sprawling gardens and a suburban feel. Young professionals need not stay away, however. There are many luxury condominium options and high-rises built or in development in the area. These units offer views of the city and many have brand new installation features and desirable amenities. If your budget isn't quite at that level, there are many affordable complexes along Westheimer. The Galleria area has plenty of public transportation options with metro bus stops spanning most of the major streets between the Beltway and the 610 loop.

When it comes to food, the Galleria has multiple offerings. Westheimer is home to some of the city's best Brazilian steakhouses and BBQ joints. There is also a wide variety of Indian and Thai inspired eats for those looking to branch out for lunch or dinner. With so many businesses in the area, the eats in this part of town cater to just about everyone. Whether you're looking for something on-the-go or for a sit down business lunch, you'll find it here. The Galleria Mall also features a huge food court on the third floor, but also has some exciting restaurants on the premises if you're looking to combine food with a dose of shopping.

During the weekdays, the Galleria will be filled with people walking to work or lunch. This area is highly trafficked, so you won't see anyone out for a leisurely stroll. Most people take haven in the air-conditioned mall or the stores surrounding it. In the residential areas, you will find more families enjoying the neighborhood. However, most suburban areas do not have a sidewalk which makes foot traffic less common. Galleria as a whole is a mix between people conducting business and those looking to unwind over the weekend. Expect this area to be a little busier than many other Houston neighborhoods.

Friday night you might find yourself doing some last minute shopping at the mall or enjoying some fine dining. Galleria is near three of the major highways in Houston, so getting from one part of town to the other is relatively easy. Galleria also features two movie theatres, so seeing the latest blockbuster is always a popular option.

The perfect Sunday will most likely be spent at the giant Galleria shopping mall. With three levels of luxury and bargain shopping, this is the perfect place for a shopaholic. The mall also features an ice rink on the lower level, so even during the hot summer months you can cool off and hit the ice.
