Howard’s BBQ & Catering—Norman Howard was 
just ten when he started helping his dad open his 
first barbecue joint, in 1949. More than 75 years later, 
Howard’s is still serving some of the city’s favorite, and 
many would say best, cue in town—but for weekday 
lunches and catered events only. When you can eat 
a pork rib without sauce and enjoy the whole thing, 
you’re at the right place! 1002 Antelope Street
El Jalisco Grill—In a city with over 80 taquerias and 
other Mexican restaurants, it’s not easy to point at 
one or two and declare them the best, overall. To this 
one, we can, as the food is always of superior quality, 
especially the very tender and perfectly grilled An-
gus fajitas. Enjoy all the Tex-Mex favorites and even 
breakfast starting at 7am, plus the best margaritas 
after work. Drive-thru. 1813 Ennis Joslin @ SPID
