Richard Rawlings at his newest venture, Gas Monkey Icehouse in The Colony
If you’ve ever revved an engine in your dreams, drooled over a perfectly patina’d ‘68 Camaro, or binged an entire season of Fast N’ Loud in one sitting, you know the kind of world Richard Rawlings builds — bigger, badder and unapologetically over the top.
Now, that world has a new home in The Colony: Gas Monkey Icehouse, where high-octane live music collides with bold-as-Texas comfort food and a scene that runs hotter than a freshly tuned V8.
Opening in May 2025, this latest venture isn’t some nostalgia act — it’s a wide-open throttle into the next era. It’s where the Metroplex comes to eat big, drink bigger and soak in a scene that’s pure Rawlings: loud, fast and impossible to ignore.
A full menu at Icehouse includes burgers loaded with jalapenos and caramel onions, pizzas topped with taco meat and hot honey, and crowd favorites like the Flying Monkey Wings (with unique flavors like honey sriracha) and Garage Beer-Battered Chicken Tenders . And, of course, a full drink menu with 28 beer taps and signature cocktails like the Summer Squeeze and a classic margarita made at the indoor and outdoor bars.
But this place isn’t just about feeding you — it’s about firing you up. You’ve got Texas-style hospitality at the core, wrapped in high-voltage entertainment and a vibe that feels like Friday night at the track. Massive flat-screens line the walls so you can catch the game from any angle, but the real show might be outside, where 13,000 square feet of glowing patio space looks out over Grandscape’s buzzing scene.
True to form, there’s still rubber on the road. Pop-up car shows roll in on weekends, live music keeps the amps warm, and every now and then, you might catch Rawlings himself filming something for the fans — giving you a front-row seat to a little behind-the-scenes TV magic.
Gas Monkey Icehouse isn’t trying to be a hidden gem. It’s loud, proud and built to be seen, heard and tasted.
