For sufferers of holiday shopping fatigue, we suggest this upscale, modern Tex-Mex restaurant in Uptown Dallas that specializes in such amped-up delights as wagyu fajitas, shrimp and lobster enchiladas and fresh tortillas made by the hands of a dedicated tortilla master in the kitchen. If the weather is pleasant, request a seat on the patio. With powerful margaritas and an accomplished bar program, it’s also a great happy hour destination when you wrap up holiday shopping at the tony shops in The Crescent.
