One of our favorite spots downtown is Jakes!!
This spot is downtown-the food is fantastic. They have a really fun ‘happy hour” menu Monday through Friday with drink and appetizer specials that is really a great value. The Chaveta is a rooftop experience that is unique to Tyler. We love going and watching the sunset while relaxing with a beverage mixed by the wonderful bartenders. Jakes is also perfect for a special evening! The menu is available online at  www.jakestyler.com .

Next door to Jakes is our favorite Mexican Restaurant
Don Juan

This is a really good Mexican restaurant-if you are looking for Tex-Mex -this is NOT the place for you. The food here is not alot of chili and cumin! Click here

We have a famous BBQ joint in Tyler    Stanley’s Famous Pit BBQ
featured in Texas Monthly Magazine as on of the

 

Stanley’s is the oldest operating Mom & Pop BBQ Joint in Tyler, Texas. Serving up true, pit smoked BBQ for over 50 years.  Stanley himself has been off of the scene for more than a decade,
but with a new owner and pit master, who took over the nearly 60
year-old-joint in 2000, has revived the quality of its barbecue–all the
usual suspects plus ham and turkey–and spruced up the atmosphere: It’s
now a cross between a fifties diner and a rustic hunting lodge.  They
also tinkered with the tangy house sauce, but the thick slices of lean
brisket (smoked for 16+ hours) and juicy pork-and-beef sausage taste
better left alone.  If you visit at lunch, consider a sandwich called
the Brother-in-Law: hotlink, chopped beef, and cheese. Yes, cheese. 
You’ll wonder why it hasn’t been a barbecue staple forever.   Click here http://stanleysfamous.com/ For much more information!!

    begin negotiations for the U.S. to place the Chagos Islands under their

    Dance Theatre of Harlem: Believe Again

    January 23 at 7:30 pm

     

    DANCE THEATRE OF HARLEM is
    a leading dance institution of unparalleled global acclaim, encompassing a
    performing Ensemble, a leading arts education center, and Dancing Through
    Barriers® — a national and international education and community outreach
    program. Founded in 1969 by Arthur Mitchell and Karel Shook, DANCE THEATRE OF HARLEM
    was considered “one of ballet’s most exciting undertakings” (The New York
    Times, 1971). Shortly after the assassination of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther
    King, Jr., Mitchell was inspired to start a school that would offer children —
    especially those in Harlem, the community in which he was born — the
    opportunity to learn about dance and the allied arts. Now in its fourth decade,
    DANCE THEATRE OF HARLEM has grown into a multi-cultural dance institution with
    an extraordinary legacy and unprecedented success, bringing innovative and bold
    new forms of artistic expression to audiences across the country and around the
    world.
