Galiana’s Tex Mex and Agave Bar, 24110 Northwest Freeway, (832) 653-6853: This restaurant from Grupo Herrera, which also owns Alicia’s Mexican Grill, Dario’s Steakhouse & Seafood and Marvino’s Italian kitchen, is a brand new restaurant concept. (It’s in what was formerly Galiana’s Bakery & Cafe.) It just opened on April 29 and is starting out by offering lunch and dinner for takeout, curbside, delivery and drive-through service. (Yes, there is actually a handy drive-through.) Expect versions of Tex-Mex fare heavily influenced by certain regions of Mexico, as well as classic street food, such as gorditas, sopes, elote and even a Sonoran-style hot dog. There’s a new twist on fajitas, too, made with certified Angus beef marinated in orange and papaya juices with a signature spice blend. On the drink side, expect a cocktail program that features quality tequila and mezcal. The current hours are 11 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. daily, and the plan is to open the dining room during “phase two” of the governor’s plan, which should be around May 18.
