Dallas-based restaurant group NL Group has announced plans to introduce Jalisco Norte, a locally based Mexican concept from chef Jose Meza. Set to open at Turtle Creek Village in November, the eatery features designs from Dallas design practice Coeval Studio.
Inspired by a variety of Mexican regions and landscapes, the restaurant reflects the aesthetic of a Central American-European home. Organized across separate rooms with low ceilings, vibrant fabrics, and ambient lighting, the large, casual setting evokes a residential-style ambiance. The dining room is appointed with intimate booths, while an upscale lounge is anchored with a large, wraparound bar. An enclosed patio is also featured, installed within the treetops of the neighborhood. A walk-up market window called Lonchería will also be created to accommodate grab-and-go customers.
