Cabritos is the star at the only full-on Monterrey-style, goat-grilling show in the Dallas area. Stare through the glass kitchen wall at the massive pit, above which goat legs, shoulders and ribcages stand like planted flags, then feast on one of the cuts alongside charro beans and the restaurant’s excellent salsas. Few make-your-own-taco experiences in […]

“Great food fast,” is how the owners (Houston chef Robert Del Grande of Cafe Annie and Lonnie Shiller) like to describe this upscale counter service establishment with nine locations in Houston and Dallas.

Cafe Pacific opened in 1980, but it wasn’t until 2004 when it was reviewed at the Observer. Back then the restaurant was described as a cliché and right now that claim still holds true. There’s sole amandine on the menu and the waiters are starched and wrangled with ties. The food is fine enough, but […]
