Sissy’s Southern Kitchen is now open for luncheon service Monday through Friday, opening at 11am. Sissy’s is an authentic Southern restaurant by chef Lisa Garza, a former contestant on The Next Food Network Star and owner of Lisa Garza Taste Studio.
Expect menu staples such as Sissy’s signature fried chicken, Gulf shrimp and grits, and roasted redfish with sweet corn maque choux mixed in with a few newcomers. Entrée salads include pickled Gulf shrimp over spinach, lump crab cake with fine herb salad and shallot vinaigrette, and herb poached red snapper atop mixed greens with preserved lemon vinaigrette.
The menu will also feature sandwiches like a New Orleans-style muffaletta, crispy Texas catfish or oyster po’ boy and chicken fried flat iron steak sandwich. The menu rounds out with sides such as mac and cheese, oven roasted collard greens, Texas caviar field pea salad, cream biscuits and jalapeno cornbread.
Sissy’s is located at 2929 Henderson Avenue in Dallas.
Oh, man… want me some grits and shrimp.
