We love trying different types of food here, and everything is always good. We thrive on the sports atmosphere with lots of televisions. It can be a little noisy, but it's a sports bar!

It's family style fried chicken (or chicken fried steak) with all the fixins. The servers may break into song or line dancing. But mostly it is about the wonderful chicken! We lick our fingers the whole time. Plus, it's in the quaint area of "downtown" Arlington.

Southwest-style food - yum! Delicious sweet potato chips and smoky salsa on every table. Food is wonderful - as spicy as you want it or not too spicy! They have terrific dishes for those who are watching their diet.

It's the home of the first frozen margarita! Who knew they weren't around before the 70s? Several different margaritas to choose from - and each is cleverly and thoughtfully presented. Food is so good! You can get traditional Mexican dishes as well as Tex-Mex.

Parks & Nature

The canyon is so close to us, and it's a tucked-away spot that is very surprising! I love the short trail and the interesting terrain. It's easy to park, hop out, walk the trail, and check out nature - all for free.

Entertainment & Activities

You will not regret going on a tour of the AT&T Stadium, even if you have been to an event there. Our tour was led by a retired high school football coach who was so excited to be sharing what he knew with us. He had interesting stories about the giant scoreboard, knew how many television sets are in the place, took us to the million dollar boxes, explained the process for switching the field surface from one event to another - a true behind the scenes tour. We'd love to go again!
