A center for blues musicians and artists in the 1920s, Deep Ellum today offers avant-garde cuisine, galleries, retail, bars and live music. Popular by day for business lunches and bustling at night with club patrons, Deep Ellum has broad appeal. The restaurant Monica’s Aca y Alla features live music on weekends and 50-cent margaritas on Wednesdays. The Angry Dog restaurant is a local favorite for hamburgers, chili dogs and hot wings, and its brick walls and dimly lit setting make it an ideal lunch hideout. Izmir Mediterranean Tapas has a dramatic atmosphere and offers tapas and Turkish coffee, which adds an eclectic element to diverse Deep Ellum.
