Amazon now serving up Houston meal deliveries

Amazon continues its expansion into the restaurant delivery arena.



Further expanding benefits to its Prime Now members, Amazon launched free one-hour deliveries from popular chain restaurants in the Houston region.



Houston-based members using the Prime Now mobile app, or those visiting the Prime Now website, can view participating restaurants, browse menus, place orders, and track the status of their delivery in real-time.



Among the restaurants participating in the program are Carrabba’s, El Tiempo Cantina, and P.F. Chang’s, among others.



“The thriving and diverse restaurant scene in the Bayou City can now be conveniently delivered to your door for free delivery with no menu markups through Amazon Restaurants on Prime Now,” said Gus Lopez, general manager, Amazon Restaurants. “We take care of mealtime so our customers have more time to go out and enjoy the things they love.”



The restaurant delivery service is the newest feature to bolster Amazon Prime Now’s benefits, which already includes one- and two-hour delivery on tens of thousands of items available in more than 25 metro areas.
