The Texas Restaurant Awards & Lone Star Bash made a triumphant return to San Antonio on Sunday, July 14, at the Boeing Center. The night was all about recognizing some of the most exciting leaders in Texas hospitality, with winners and awardees announced for the prestigious Texas Restaurant Awards.

The Outstanding Restaurateur Award isn’t just about running a successful business; it’s about leadership, community involvement, and that entrepreneurial drive that pushes the industry forward.

This is exactly what makes David Girela’s nomination for the Brazos Valley district’s 2024 Outstanding Restauratuers of the Year Award so meaningful. David Girela is the Founder of Fuego Tortilla Grill, an emerging brand within Uncommon Brands restaurant portfolio.
