HALF PRICE TOMMY’S AND FROZEN MARGARITAS EVERY DAY

LOCATED IN LONDON, D GRANDE IS BRINGING TRUE TEX-MEX TO THE UK.

IN TEXAS, TEX-MEX FOOD SURROUNDS YOU.

It’s a delicious and craving inspiring comfort food with a lively margarita-infused atmosphere that’s as much a part of Texas culture as are country music, American football, and BBQ

Texas roots run deep and running even deeper are cravings for tangy margaritas and bowls of warm queso. D GRANDE was born out of just that. A few Texans making London home with a strong love for food and their Tex-Mex roots. We’re excited to bring TRUE Tex-Mex to the UK and introduce our favourite comfort food

NICKNAME FOR DALLAS, TX


D GRANDE is a tour of our favourites from Dallas’ Tex-Mex scene

Tex-Mex has a fascinating HISTORY spanning hundreds of years of cultural mixing and culinary influence

Dallas has its own unique place in that history - including the invention of the frozen margarita machine, the creation of the brisket taco, and the birth of dozens of wonderful Tex-Mex restaurants whose flavours inspire our menu

TEX-MEX

 

tex-mex started in a cart


In the mid 19th century, immigrants sold pecan pralines, chili con carne,

tamales, and enchiladas out of pushcarts across texas

tex-mex ≠ mexican food

“We can all thank Diana Kennedy [author of The Cuisines of Mexico, 1972] for inadvertently granting Tex-Mex its rightful place in food history. By convincing us that Tex-Mex wasn’t Mexican food, she forced us to realize that it was something far more interesting: America’s oldest regional cuisine.
