Portillo’s, the fast-casual restaurant concept known for Chicago-style street food, will open a restaurant in Grapevine, between Highway 114 and South Main Street. One of the brand’s first “Restaurant of the Future” designs, the 6,200-square-foot building will sport a rustic Southwest garage theme.

Mi Tierra is the name of a new meat market that just opened at 3233 Alta Mere Dr., in a former Furr's Cafeteria space. They sell marinated meats, salsa, chicharron, Mexican bread, and a few groceries and vegetables. It's a spinoff of one already open on 6726 Camp Bowie Blvd.

Hurtado Barbecue has introduced two new sides: Tater Tot Casserole, and Garlic Chorizo Green Beans.

Fogo de Chão recently launched Sonhadores Wine, a Cabernet Sauvignon wine in partnership with Cline Family Cellars based in Sonoma, to add to its Tribute Wine Collection. The new offering is available by the glass, bottle, or take-home option at all Fogo locations. How much these are, they do not say.

Pizza Hut added Chicago tavern-style pizza in June — the first global pizza chain to offer a tavern pizza whose origins date back to Chicago in the 1930's when bartenders would serve thin-crust pizza cut into squares, often for free. In recent years, the style has grown more popular among fans who favor its square-cut, crispy thin crust, loaded from edge to edge with toppings. The brand has also added chicken sausage, pesto swirl, and spicy sauce as permanent topping offerings.

McDonald’s of North Texas has two new limited-time items "while supplies last": Smoky BLT Quarter Pounder with American cheese, thick-cut applewood smoked bacon, tomato, shredded lettuce, and smoky BLT sauce; and the Kit Kat Banana Split McFlurry, with vanilla soft-serve mixed with real banana, strawberry clusters, and Kit Kat pieces.

Shiner Bock is now offering a new slim 12-oz. can for Shiner Light. It's the same amount of beer, it's just in a skinnier can.
