• Tex-Mex • Columbia City
Booked 2 times today
Tex-Mex cuisine began in the Rio Grande Valley before migrating up to San Antonio during the l860's where a group of women known as The Chili Queens' began to pop up in the city's plazas selling chili con carne with tamales, enchiladas, and chili verde. They incorporated cumin into their dishes favored by settlers from theCanary lslands, which still has a strong influence on Mexican food in Texas. Tex-Mex also loves beef, flour tortillas, yellow cheese, fajitas and more.Our inspiration comes from the many classic Tex-Mex restaurants including Sylvia's Enchilada Kitchen, Papasito's, Ninfa's, Blue Goose, Hugo's, Herrerra's Cafe, Chuy's, Valentina's Tex-Mex and many more. Jackalope combines excellent Central Texas-style smoked meats from Jack's BBQ with delicious Tex-Mex dishes. lt's truly the best of both worlds!

    We love our neighborhood Tutta Bella! The staff at Columbia City are so sweet and always answer any of our questions, especially taking time to give recommendations of food and wine pairings. Everything always tastes phenomenal. The seasonal offerings are always a hit - the gnocchi has been the favorite the last few seasons, but we have yet to have a dish we dislike in any way. My only note during these cold months in Seattle was that the dining room was a bit chilly, but that did not impact overall experience too much - the wine helped with that no problem :)
