AfroTex Grill is a unique spot that blends West African flavors with Texas-style Tex-Mex. Their fast-casual menu features bold spices and customizable dishes. Diners can create their own bowls and burritos starting with bases like jollof rice, cilantro-lime rice, or fresh greens. They can then choose from proteins including suya-spiced chicken, steak, or grilled salmon, and add a variety of toppings. The traditional suya plates come with thinly sliced, flame-grilled meats seasoned with a smoky and spicy Nigerian blend, paired with sweet caramelized plantains and suya-seasoned corn on the cob. This fusion of Nigerian flavors and Tex-Mex favorites makes AfroTex Grill a must-visit.
