Home to some of the nation’s best chefs, restaurateurs, and innovative dining experiences, Irving restaurants are sure to please any traveler to the area. It doesn’t matter whether you live to eat or simply eat to live, delicious and satisfying meals await at a wide range of Irving restaurants.

Dine Near the Hottest Spots

Visitors delight in the amazing Irving restaurants near the Toyota Music Factory, one of the nation’s largest and most comprehensive entertainment and live music complexes. With world-class concerts and exceptional events all year round, there are plenty of reasons to make a trip to Toyota Music Factory. But the 20+ restaurants might be the best reason. There’s a little of everything to choose from at Toyota Music Factory.

Also in Las Colinas, explore beautiful Lake Carolyn and delight in one of the best master-planned communities in the country. Here, you can choose from trendy restaurant concepts, cozy favorites, and bold flavors. Tuck into a plate of perfect lasagna at Italian Cafe, or explore the fresh flavors at Little Katana, a stylish bistro offering sushi, Japanese fare, and fusion dishes in a bright and inviting setting. Hugo’s Invitados on Water Street serves up authentic cuisine influenced by Mexico, handcrafted from sustainable, organic ingredients.

Whether you’ve just arrived to Irving or are about to take off, there are dozens of restaurants near DFW Airport to choose from. If DFW South is more convenient for you, don’t miss local favorites like Empa Mundo World of Empanadas, where you can indulge in delicious takes on the classic Mexican empanada, from sweet to savory and everything in between. If you find yourself closer to DFW North, check out LA Burger, a no-frills modern spot for Korean-fusion patties, BBQ, and other comfort foods.

The Best BBQ and Tex-Mex

Of course, any trip to Texas has to include some finger-lickin’ good Texas barbeque. Lucky for you, Irving has plenty of authentic BBQ to choose from: Dickey’s Barbecue Las Colinas specializes in classic, house-smoked Texas BBQ, specialty sides, and baked potatoes, while Post Oak Smokehouse uses regional oak wood to get a truly unique, purely Texan flavor you won’t find anywhere else. Outdoor seating, pit-smoked meats, classic Southern sides, and ice-cold beer round out this BBQ experience.

No list of Irving restaurants would be complete without the wonderful and famous flavors of Tex-Mex, Texas’s coveted take on Mexican cuisine. You can saddle up to a giant bowl of queso, order some enchiladas, and sip specialty margaritas with top-shelf tequilas at Irving’s many Tex-Mex restaurants. Gloria’s is a local favorite that serves up tasty creations and Salvadorian-inspired cuisine. Via Real offers a menu of Southwestern and Tex-Mex dishes and a wide tequila selection in a truly Southwestern setting, perfect for the whole family.

Eat Like a Local

If you find yourself in the Heritage District, Irving’s historic center, stop by favorites like Big State Fountain Grill. This very classic, down-home spot serves up burgers, shakes, and other essential diner fares. Near the Convention Center? Check out restaurants like Blaze Brazilian Steakhouse a posh Brazilian restaurant known for savory, fire-roasted skewered beef, lamb, pork, and chicken.
