$4.5 Million Steakhouse Planned for Cedar Park

A Brazilian steakhouse chain will spend $4.5 million to build a new location in Cedar Park. The project is set to begin construction in February 2027, according to a filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.

The development is one of several commercial updates in the Leander and Cedar Park area this month. A Central Texas physical therapy clinic also plans to start construction in December. The clinic treats chronic pain, accident-related injuries, and vertigo.

In Leander, a new convenience store will occupy nearly 5,000 square feet in Benbrook Plaza. Construction for that project is scheduled to start in January, with completion expected by July 2027. A separate office building for ABA Spectrum, a clinic for children with autism and developmental disabilities, will also begin construction this month.

Retail expansion continues at the Cross Creek Landing development in Cedar Park. JETSET Pilates is opening a studio there. The company describes its 50-minute sessions as high-intensity and low-impact strength training. A furniture store will also open in the area, occupying nearly 50,000 square feet to sell items for living, dining, and outdoor spaces.

Several existing businesses in the region have changed management or ownership. Angels for Elders, a private-pay home care agency, has merged with Blue Water Homecare, Inc. Clients began receiving services under the new name in October. Founders of the original agency are assisting with the transition for clients and caregivers.

BB Shine’s Express Car Wash is now operated by Clearwater Express Wash. Existing members can keep their current status under the new management. Meanwhile, the Dog Haus restaurant on Whitestone Boulevard in Cedar Park has reopened under new ownership. Robert Mason purchased the spot and restored it after a brief closure. He stated that the restaurant will offer free meals for children on Sundays as a way to support the community.

Other new and updated venues include a sweet treat shop serving fresh cookies every Friday and a dog grooming facility with self-service washing bays. A sports center is also launching programs for boys and girls, including leagues for third graders and up and camps for elementary and middle school students.
