Would you be so kind as to ping your Texas list (if this isn't too far off-topic for you)? Xie-xie.

Do yourself a favor and just come on over to Fort Worth. Anyway, Texas Land & Cattle Co. is pretty good. I don't know if they have one in Grapevine. If I was eating in Grapevine I'd go to Carabba's, their kinda Texan Italian.

Do a google search of 'Grapevine Texas' and select the first item (Map of Grapevine). At the bottom of the page, right hand side, use the drop down box to access restaurants and much more.

Tha atmosphere is neat at the Rainforest Cafe at Grapevine Mills. There is also a Cheesecake Factory in Frisco at that mall - on 121.

When we lived in Grapevine, Esparza's was our hang out. Their Mexican food was the best at the time, but I haven't been there in awhile. I hope it hasn't changed. I would go there. Nice atmosphere and good food.

Meek, we should go there next time I'm in town. I'm lonesome for Mexican food. We're having fajita's tomorrow night.

In Grapevine, Esperanza's is the best Mexican. In Dallas, Mattitos or Taco Diner for Mexican, Dickey's for BBQ.

[Skooz]

Dick's Last Resort in the West End (Downtown).

Sink, any suggestions for the area.........

If you like Mexican food try Matts Mexican Restaurant in the little Lakewood shopping center at Gaston and Abrams. It's right next to the Lakewood theatre. They serve more authentic Mexican food and not the typical Tex-Mex crapola you get at El Fenix or El Chico restaurants.

It would be wise to call for reservations.

Darn. I am a fast food or home food kind a guy. So, good places?? ha!

How about Bobs Steak and Chop House for lunch??

[ladyinred]

My hubby a former Texan agrees that the Texas Land and Cattle Company is fantastic. His words were '" It is the best steak house I have ever eaten at!"

I have to put up with his everything is better in Texas rhetoric all of the time! LOL

Glad you asked!

For some good mex/texmex try the Plano Tortilla Factory in Plano, or if you are in McKinney, try "San Miguel's"....my all time favorite mexican restaurant. If you like BBQ, go to Deep Ellum and try Backer's Ribs on Commerce.

If you feel like Bill Gates, go to Addison and try Fogo De Chao, all you can eat Brazillian pit style steak.

I have yet to find an exceptional Mexican restaurant here in the Austin area.
