"Jonnie and Mark Houston are 35-year-old fraternal twins who own seven Hollywood bars, each of which feels like a fantastical theme park. The spots are known for their old-timey entertainment - burlesque dancers, tightrope walkers, fire eaters - and craft cocktails. One, Harvard & Stone, features live music and incorporates a "research and development" bar, where guest mixologists from around the world concoct original drink menus every night. Since the late aughts, the Houston brothers have been redefining L.A. nightlife. Their Houston Hospitality brand now is a mini-empire of concept-driven speakeasies, many of which incorporate secret entrances." - LA WEEKLY
