Garlic dill halibut with balsamic marinated portabella mushroom, wilted spinach and bacon salad, finished with a lemon buerre blanc

Chef Will Owen brings his seafood expertise to Macaroni Joe’s coastal-inspired summer menu. As a Chesapeake Bay native, he combines simple, straightforward ingredients with fresh seafood shipped in twice a week. This halibut dish is the Chef’s Recommendation for July, and because Chef Owen insists on keeping fish the centerpiece, you can be assured a light, healthy meal that leaves you hearing ocean waves in the background.

Green Chile Willy's
The chicken fried steak at Green Chile Willy’s is a trademark dish of the Amarillo area tradition. The secret is in careful preparation. They carefully hand-bread each piece of fresh beef for a mouthwatering experience. Top it off with a helping of banana pudding, and you’ll imagine you’re sitting around grandma’s table. Green Chile Willy’s is also the place to get a great burger, whether it be beef or buffalo, topped with raspberry chipotle, creamed blue cheese, or, obviously, green chilies. Try the weekday lunch special, an 8 oz. sirloin steak for only $9.99.

Open Tuesday-Saturday 11-9. The truly Texan GCW is only a quick jaunt down I-27, nestled between exits 112 and 113. 13651 Interstate 27, 622.2200.

Barnaby's Beanery
Barnaby’s Beanery is celebrating 39 years as a 6th Street staple. Their iconic cornbread cheeseburger is only part of the reason for their long-lasting success. Mix it up at Barnaby’s Beanery with homemade favorites like a steaming bowl of chili or fruit cobbler (we recommend the blackberry).

Now open Tuesday-Saturday 11-8, they offer beer specials on Friday and Saturday evenings including $1 domestic and $1.25 premium beer.
