The Z Tejas
Story
It all started
in a little
place in
Austin, Texas
where four
friends, who
were also
chefs, agreed
to disagree.
These
chef/friends
had come
together to
create a new
dining
experience and
to open their
first
restaurant, Z
Tejas Grill
Austin.
|
 In developing
the menu, one
chef enjoyed
cooking with a
Southwestern
flair. A
second
preferred the
Cajun and
Creole flavors
of New
Orleans. The
other two
chefs prepared
their recipes
with the
creativity and
freshness of
California.
Soon,
the
chefs of
Z' Tejas
Grill
began to
borrow
and
share
ingredients
and
recipes
with
each
other
that
created
a
cuisine
we've
dubbed
"Dining
South by
Southwest"
and
result
in the
flavors
you'll
find at
Z' Tejas
Grill.
At Z'
Tejas
Grill,
we pride
ourselves
on
having a
menu
that has
something
for
everyone.
You can
come in
for
lunch or
dinner,
or share
appetizers
at the
bar with
friends
while
enjoying
our
famous
frozen
margaritas.
Z Tejas
offers
different
menus
for
lunch
and
dinner,
so join
us for
either
or both! |

 Chef Jack Gilmore
I've worked in kitchens for 22 years. From the gulf coast of Texas and Louisiana to the desert of Arizona. I started at Z' Tejas in Austin nine years ago. My philosophy
of cooking was very simple - put together everything you have learned and use it. Be humble when it does not work out and be glad when it does. I try to make all our
guests satisfied. It is great when eight different people come in and every one orders something different and all is enjoyable. What
others say about Z Tejas Austin
"Brunch is a must at Z' Tejas, off Far West Boulevard near Arboretum shopping. The menu has a strong breakfast flavor (Cajun ham omelet, for example) and
Southwestern selections (such as crispy catfish beignets with jalapeno tartar sauce.) Eat your heart out as you look out over the Hill Country through huge windows."
-The Dallas Morning News
Z' Tejas is innovative yet unpretentious, and reasonably priced, with a unique, fresh taste that tantalizes the palate. For a dining experience that's truly
different, Z' Tejas Grill offers the best of high fashion food served in the laid-back environment Austinites have come to love."
-Experience Austin
"Z' Tejas has one of the most interesting, appetizing menus in town. It's not just that the dishes have catchy names and intriguing ingredients. It's that no matter
what your mood or appetite level there's something that's bound to please."
-Austin American-Statesman |
