    A new taco is coming to Dallas from famous comedian George Lopez, who is debuting street tacos in a delivery-only format, under the name George Lopez Tacos, beginning June 8.

    George Lopez's multi-faceted career encompasses TV, film, and stand-up comedy; he co-created and starred in Warner Bros Television's sitcom George Lopez which ran for six seasons on ABC.

    But a release says he is also a passionate foodie, now bringing Mexican flavors to the masses — that's us! — via a partnership with Nextbite, a virtual restaurant company that specializes in the fast-growing off-premise dining model.

    "My street tacos are all about helping you rompe your routines and dinner expectations with a badass street taco experience that tastes damn delicious,” says Lopez in a statement. [translation of "rompe": "breaks"]

    "With Nextbite’s delivery-only concept, we are helping restaurants thrive by adding a delicious delivery-only menu item that allows them to get a little bit of George in the kitchen and bring more revenue into their operation," Lopez says.

    George Lopez Tacos will feature iconic street taco recipes that Lopez developed himself, featuring:

    • tender and slow-cooked meats
    • flavorful toppings
    • salsa sauces

    The release offers no other menu details, but Lopez also owns a restaurant concept in Southern California that serves tacos, burritos, and bowls, and those tacos include pretty authentic-looking carne asada and pollo asado tacos on corn tortillas.

    A photo supplied by NextBite seems to indicate that the menu will also include chips & queso, guacamole, and churro bites.

    Lopez is busy: In addition to the taco concept and the restaurant, he also has a brewing company.

    George Lopez Tacos will be offered through an array of Nextbite restaurant partners not only in Dallas but also Atlanta, Denver, Los Angeles, New York City, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, and more.

    Lopez is not the first celebrity figure to give us, the masses, the opportunity to order their food: Guy Fieri has opened Guy Fieri's Flavortown Kitchen, offering delivery of dishes such as his mac & cheese burger and wings; and celebu-chef David Chang opened Fuku, a ghost kitchen concept featuring fried chicken sandwiches and tenders.

    Dallas diner & music venue will open in former Ferris Wheeler space

    A new restaurant has been unveiled that will take over the former Ferris Wheeler space near Dallas' Design District at 1950 Market Center Blvd.: Called AM/FM, it'll be an all-day diner and lounge with a big backyard and a stage for live music, and it's from Spune Productions, the music and event production company.

    According to a release, it'll open in early January initially with evening hours, cocktails, and a few afternoon soccer matches. Music acts are already booked beginning January 8. More hours will be added down the road.

    Ferris Wheelers BBQ, which was also a restaurant with a big backyard and a stage for live music, closed in November after eight years. Spune had already been involved since 2023 to help ramp up the live music side. Now they'll take it over with a fresh new personality and long hours.

    They were famous for having a Ferris wheel on-site; an inquiry on its status went unanswered.

    The diner will open daily at 7 am, serving "musicians coming off late nights, workers heading into morning shifts, and neighbors who want a place that remembers their name," says the release very poetically.

    They've redecorated the interior with a new bar and banquettes that wrap the room. Alongside the renovations inside, the set-up outdoors will evolve over the coming weeks, with extra care given to the concert experience,

    Menu
    The food at AM/FM will be rooted in elevated Diner classics, with a menu overseen by chef Anastacia Quinones-Pittman (Oh, Hi! Hospitality) that's influenced by Mexican-American kitchens and Nuevo Southern traditions.

    Breakfast offerings include huevos rancheros, breakfast tacos, breakfast empanadas, French toast, avocado toast, pork belly toast, and an intriguing twist on pancakes called masa pancakes, made using masa harina AKA corn flour.

    Lunch includes a chicken Milanesa Caesar salad, Sonoran hot dog, fried catfish po'boy, kale salad, Cobb salad, and a Mexican twist on chicken noodle soup with fideo noodles.

    Entree plates include pot roast, meatloaf, fried chicken, and a weekly pot pie.

    The beverage program will aim for accessibility with coffee, cocktails, and craft beer, says Victor Rojas, Quinones-Pittman's partner at Oh, Hi! Hospitality.
