marmer Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Oh yeah, the Mexican restaurant, La Hacienda, I think. It was at Main and N. Braeswood. It was still open until the late 90's or early 00's.It changed names a few times. I believe it was Dos Gringos at one time. I went there fairly often in college -- it was pretty good and not too expensive.There was also a great Chinese place on Main. I'm guessing it was about where Radio Shack, in the Target parking lot is now.Lee's Den, I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highrise Tower Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Looks like this Mexican restaurant was active in the 1970s. I see a blurb mentioned in the newspaper The Rice Thresher dated December 6, 1979. The business might have been operated longer than that? I see the phone number has a (713) zip code. I don't think that was around in the 1970s. Matchbook found on Ebay! Very cool history here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
