- RRichardVIPDallas - Fort Worth •142 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoI met friends for a Holiday dinner and Sugarbacon was the perfect place. The food was delicious...do not miss out on the deviled eggs. The salads were perfect and large enough to be an entree. The burger is huge...and also great. This has NOTHING to do with the restaurant but parking in downtown McKinney is difficult to find...so arrive early.More infoSugarbacon Proper KitchenPrice: Moderate• American• McKinney•4.4

Discover McKinney
McKinney manages to fuse big-city amenities with small-town kindness, making it a must-visit destination for business and leisure alike. As you'd expect, mouthwatering Texas-style barbecue is available in abundance from both locally owned and national establishments. Similarly, seafood and Tex-Mex eateries impress with their authentic and great-tasting offerings. But where McKinney really manages to set itself apart is in the area of Cajun cuisine.

These diverse options come together to create a phenomenal restaurant scene that’s worth a taste. McKinney visitors should make an effort to try any barbecue variation and authentic, spicy jambalaya!
