Price: Expensive•Contemporary American•4.8(1,007)Established in 2012, I started Urban Grill and Wine Bar to add a quality restaurant with a full bar and boutique wine list to an area that is in desperate need of something unique and family operated. Having spent most of our adult lives in the restaurant business, my wife Jaylene and I understand the importance that our food be of the highest quality and our service be very friendly and professional. Our menu offers a variety of dishes from simple but delicious sandwiches to the best steaks and seafood around.
Ciccio Trattoria
Price: Expensive•Italian•4.6(704)Chef Ati Malaj has been in the restaurant industry for over 25 years with Ciccio being his fourth restaurant in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
When you eat at Ciccio, you will gracefully taste his carefully crafted choices of ingredients. He is consistently raising the bar with innovated twists on all of his dishes.
Our mission is to have a place with not just extraordinary food, but also one that will make you feel at home, offering the highest standards in quality and service. From the logo to the silverware, every single detail was thought out and it has a why behind it. Talking about our logo, we don’t call it just a logo; we wanted it to tell a story and that’s exactly how it turned out. As simple as it looks, it tells our story.
The word “Ciccio” [pronounced CH EE – ch oh] means “sweetheart/an affectionate way of calling someone you love” in Italian, and that is exactly how he and his family feel about this place and what it represents to them.Sugarbacon Proper Kitchen

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. Authentic Cajun restaurants offer fantastic meals, from seafood gumbo to a fried oyster po'boy sandwich. 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!
