Great local BBQ in the heart of downtown Plano! Grab a beer and some meat and enjoy eating off of butcher paper!

Slightly further from the house, but worth the trip if you've never been. This place is a next level food court. There are tons of food options here and multiple bars. Everything is counter serve and quick, then you take a seat inside or out. Sometimes there's even love music. Open a tab and stay a while!

Happy hour Mon-Fri 4-7pm! Head up to the roof top bar for great views! Gets busy on the weekends, so plan ahead. I've never had a bad pizza here.
