Chef-owner Austin Waiter of The Marigold Club, now serving fried chicken and Champagne on Sunday nights.
And the drinks? They’re going big. Champagne bottles are half-off, and if you’ve ever dreamed of sipping Krug by the glass with your fried chicken, this is your moment. Feeling fancy? Add caviar service and settle in for the kind of Sunday that’s anything but sleepy.
Set inside The Marigold Club’s moody, glam dining room — think velvet, Murano chandeliers, and hand-painted murals — this new weekly tradition is giving end-of-weekend blues a very bubbly makeover.
Reservations are highly recommended. Southern comfort never looked (or tasted) so good.
Fried chicken for two, buttery mashed potatoes and half-priced Champagne are on the new Sunday menu at The Marigold Club.

The real star of the evening? 6,500 pounds of crawfish, served up with all the fixings — plus Gulf Coast favorites like lobster fritters, seafood fondue, boudin balls and bread pudding with a boozy twist.
Guests got competitive during the live auction, which featured everything from Caribbean escapes to helicopter hog hunts. A chocolate lab puppy named Blue Bell stole the show — and a new home — with Cotton EVP Zinat Ahmed. He’ll be trained as an emotional support pup for visitors to Taylor’s Place, a retreat for families facing terminal illness that’s set to open this fall.
Closing out the night? A crowd-pleasing performance by country star Mark Chesnutt, who brought the house (or barn) down.
In the crowd was Pete Bell, Fady Armanious, Ellie Francisco, Whitney Kuhn Lawson, Kristen Cannon and Heather Almond.

The evening recognized BRASS mentor-doctors James Bonar, Ben Deneen and Ganesh Rao; also in attendance was renowned neurologist Huda Y. Zoghbi, a member of the BRASS Board and the liaison between the Board and Baylor College of Medicine. “Widely admired as a mentor and scientific pioneer,” per a release, Dr. Zoghbi’s presence was a powerful reminder of BRASS’s mission to inspire and support the next generation of biomedical leaders.
The celebration — and the transformative mentorship organization itself — would not be possible without the great Dr. Michael DeBakey, an honorary lifetime member. He once said that BRASS is worth championing because “it does not support a cure for a specific disease that people will rally around and support financially, but rather a broad-based approach to supporting the research that will define the disease. There is no other organization like this in the country.”
