Dallas Mexican restaurant Vidorra to open in DFW tourist destination
Vidorra
A Dallas-based Mexican restaurant and bar is coming to the tourist-friendly town of Grapevine: Vidorra, a modern Mexican restaurant chain founded in Deep Ellum in 2018, has leased a 7,878-square-foot freestanding restaurant building located at 700 W. SH-114.
According to a release, it will open in December 2025.
The location was most recently home to Hoffbrau Steak & Grill House, which closed surprisingly in February 2024, just a little over a year after it opened in November 2022 in a former Brick House Tavern & Tap, which closed during the pandemic. Way back in the day, it was a Romano's Macaroni Grill.
The location lies in of a string of restaurants running along 114 that includes Grimaldi's, La Madeleine, PF Chang's, and Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen. There are also already at least two other Mexican restaurants close by including Uncle Julio's and Mi Dia From Scratch.
But Vidorra — which means “the good life” — is known not just for its food and cocktails, but also its "energized" environment. That means creative margaritas and Vidorra's signature Queso Blanco served in a 400-degree molcajete bowl – a fan-favorite experience.
Other entrees include street tacos, birria tacos, and fajitas.
Cocktails include a top-shelf margarita flight and fruit-infused cocktails. Tequila is big, and there are large-format drinks for sharing for a convivial social experience.
There are currently Vidorra locations in Deep Ellum, Grand Prairie, Addison, and Rockwall, which opened in 2024; wit plans to open locations in Mesquite and Nashville soon.
It's part of Milkshake Concepts whose portfolio of restaurants includes Stirr, The Finch, Saaya, Serious Pizza, and Serious Eats.
Emilie G. Paulson with Weitzman handled negotiations for the property. Michael Walters with Falcon Realty Advisors represented the restaurant.
