• Tex-Mex • Myers Park
Booked 25 times today
Chef Ford Fry and Chef Kevin Maxey, together designed a “Mex-Tex” menu that plays to their own Texan roots, tracing the beginnings of the cuisine to the 1930s, when Mexican cooks first doctored up their dishes to suit a “Gringo” palate with Americanized elements, giving birth to the Tex-Mex dialogue. “Kevin and I wanted to do food we like to eat,” Fry said. “It’s natural for a chef to want to be true to a certain culture, and likewise, we wanted to do authentic Tex-Mex, because it developed where we’re from.”

    Very hard to get a rez but good was excellent. Lasagna was fantastic and very different, using white sauce and rib meat. Pizza very good along with bouillabaisse. Fresh pasta. Make sure to ask which sauce is spicy though.

    We made a reservation 2 days before, and were promptly seated on arrival. At 9:30 am the place was already pretty busy. We had to wait on our server to get to us but nothing offensively long. I ordered shrimp and grits, and my husband ordered the shrimp and crab omelette. We got garlic bread and smoked salmon tostini’s to share. The bread and tostini’s and my entree were great! My husband’s omelette was little dry (the pesto in the omelette isn’t enough for him, he’s a saucy guy). We requested hollandaise sauce to go with it, and it was better but overall a 6.5/10 for that dish. I ordered a caramel iced cappuccino, but didn’t get any caramel in it. Overall we really enjoyed the experience, and we’re definitely coming back to try some more options out, a lot of things on the menu looked promising!

    Went with some friends to celebrate an engagement. Food menu is diverse, and offered plenty of options, even for the one person who did not like raw fish. Over all a great experience, though a bit pricey.
