Quick updates:
Prometheus Pizzas Trattoria is open and is fabulous. If you want great food this is the spot.
Casa Chloe just opened up in the last two weeks. Have either had almost everything on the menu or been at the table when someone ordered it. It's incredible. Do yourself a favor: Sit outside if the weather is even halfway decent. Favorites are the tortilla soup, smoked chicken nachos (brisket is ok, but their smoked chicken is incredible), tacos (shrimp) and flan. The churro looks fantastic but we never go away from the flan. Great cocktail menu. Bow did a great job with it. He's the owner, old guy who sits at the end of the bar in a cowboy hat - go say hi. They are going through the usual restaurant opening in Fred issues with staff but fully believe it's going to work out - don't be in a gigantic hurry. Also they don't allow kids under 10. Have a ton of tequilla and mezcal options.
Eaker is now open Friday and Saturday evenings.
If you are out on 290, Leroy's Tex Mex BBQ is mexi-que. Really good across the board, and they have v solid but expensive breakfast tacos in the morning. Their queso is awesome, looks small but they go through the line fast. Great seating area outside. Attached to Jensche Farms next to Trade Days.
Sure Shot is an easy in/out place for coffee. Small menu, across the street from Whataburger. Check their insta for hours, sometimes they move on Saturday morning to soccer fields. Still prefer Caliche straight up but it's faster and easier for locals on Saturday morning.
Taqueria Machetes is downtown next to the Nimitz. Hildas is easier for breakfast tacos but Machetes is better and it isn't really close. They also have a salsa bar that's awesome.
Take your lady to Six Twists. Champagne bar across the street from Bubble Bus and next door to OroBianco. Champagne bar basically that does some awesome tastings. Very unique spot. If you don't like bubbly, go like four doors down to Ferris & Fletch. Extremely kid friendly if you go to the back yard, and they have great wines made by even better people.
