Five new businesses have opened across Katy since late August, with a sixth on the way.

The openings add Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese and Indian dining options plus a yoga studio and a coffee shop, according to Community Impact Newspaper, which published a broader roundup of eight new area businesses on Oct. 28. Here is what Katy residents can check out.

Nikubol — Katy Asian Town

The eatery specializes in customizable bowls with a base of rice, salad or udon topped with grilled protein, fresh toppings and signature sauces.

Dine-in guests can also visit the self-serve NIKUBAR for sides, salads and soup. Nikubol's first location opened inside POST Houston. Owner Wing Tsang said the restaurant's goal is to work with nearby schools, apartment communities and local organizations on student lunch benefits, community promotions and future events, the Katy Times reported.

The studio offers strength-building practices, restorative yin-based classes, workshops and special events.

Ayurveda Kitchen — coming soon

Founder Sanjiv Khanna said Ayurveda Kitchen is set to bring its Indian-cuisine concept to Katy, with a focus on plant-based foods, vegetables, healthy fats and fiber. Menu items will include a thali platter, curry, kebabs and fresh naan, according to Community Impact.

"Longevity should not be a luxury," Khanna said.

Khanna said he is working with the owners of C79 Bakery and Restaurant, located in the same building, to open Ayurveda Kitchen. The pair of businesses plan to introduce a "family-oriented club" encouraging exercise after meals later this year.
