Combining regional Texas cuisine with general contemporary American fare, the menu includes dishes such as chorizo and pepper jack grits cake Benedict, pork chops with sweet potato hash, and tacos, along with cocktails and tequila flights. The over 6,000-square-foot outdoor space includes a beer garden and auditorium-style seating, as well as a separate kitchen and full bar in an Airstream. The al fresco area holds 300 seated guests or as many as 500 standing.
