The last California Pizza Kitchen in San Antonio has officially closed, but a new concept is on the way. The location at Huebner Oaks is being renovated into Hot Spot 61, a new restaurant investing $250,000 in upgrades. The opening is planned for early 2026. 

Why This Development Matters 

The Medical Center / Northwest corridor is one of the busiest areas in San Antonio. Adding Hot Spot 61 means: 

• New dining for families and professionals. 

• Increased value for nearby retail centers. 

• Stronger appeal for renters and buyers seeking lifestyle perks. 

Impact on Real Estate 

Huebner Oaks already has shopping, dining, and entertainment, but with a fresh new restaurant concept: 

• Medical Center employees get more dining choices nearby. 

• Families buying homes in Northwest SA see added value. 

• Rental demand stays strong thanks to lifestyle upgrades. 

Final Thoughts 

The arrival of Hot Spot 61 at Huebner Oaks is more than a restaurant—it’s a sign of continued growth in the Northwest/Medical Center corridor. With steady retail and housing demand, this area remains one of the most attractive in San Antonio for buyers, sellers, and investors alike.
