Food
#2. Austin’s Bar-B-Que

Austin’s Bar-B-Que is a family-owned barbeque joint serving up Authentic Texas BBQ. The menu features smoked meats served by the pound, as a sandwich, or a plate. Brisket and Pulled Pork are only some examples of their mouthwatering meats that pair perfectly with a baked potato or potato salad. Mac n cheese and green beans are some of the classic BBQ sides that you’ll see on the menu, and you can finish off your meal with banana pudding or peach cobbler for something sweet. Nothing goes with pit-smoked BBQ like an ice-cold beer, and Austin’s has you covered with their full bar and lounge.
#3. Asian Mint
5290 Belt Line Rd. Unit 118, Addison, TX 75254
Asian Mint is the taste that Addison has been looking for! Their menu features savory noodle dishes, spicy curries, and lighter soups and salads. “Stop by and let your palate travel to heaven with our Pad Thai offerings, Sea Bass, or our lighter fare, Asian Noodle Salad.” The Sea Bass is a standout menu item. Wild-caught sea bass is prepared with a lime ginger soy marinade and served with broccoli, bok choy, mushroom, and red bell pepper. The appetizers are smaller bites that are perfect to share.
