Description

The Southwest grill wood and stone décor gives this place a rustic, lodge-like feel, while the bar with TVs constantly blaring makes it feel like a sports bar. The second-floor location, especially the outdoor seating area, features a great view of the Galleria area, perfect for enjoying the cafe's famous margaritas. On the menu: innovative Mexican, Native American and Tex-Mex food (spinach and portabella quesadilla, banana burrito), along with soups (poblano chicken chowder), burgers, sandwiches, salads (blackened chicken and avocado) and pasta.
