Start Here: Pull Up a Chair
We’re Megg & Dirk, and Yellow City Table is our ongoing conversation about what tastes great in Amarillo and why. Some nights that’s a steak you plan a week around; other nights it’s counter service, perfect salsa, and the kind of booth that makes everything feel easy. We like good rooms, generous pours, cooks who care, and dishes that linger in your brain on Tuesday afternoon.
What you’ll find here
Reviews: Opinionated, practical, and human. We’ll tell you what impressed us, what to order and where the night actually sings.
Guides & Maps: Date nights, late-night eats, best steaks, under-$12 lunches, “worth the detour” lists. Bookmark freely.
Kitchen Notes: Quick sauces, small upgrades, and home tricks that make dinner feel special without requiring a culinary diploma.
Restaurant Quality Recipes: Want to cook to impress, we’ll share secrets from behind the line to impress even your pickiest guests (look at you mother in laws).
Openings & Pop-Ups: What’s new, what to try first, and whether it fits your mood (and budget).
How we eat
We share plates, compare notes, and argue (nicely) about what matters: flavor, texture, value, hospitality, and the vibe that makes you want to stay for one more round. We don’t “gotcha.” If a place misses, it’s always a quite pass.
What we don’t do
We don’t take payment for reviews. If we ever accept a comp or tasting menu, we’ll say so—loudly. Partnerships (when they happen) will be labeled, and editorial stays separate.
Help us make this better
Send your can’t-miss bites, opening tips, and gentle disagreements. We’ll happily eat our way to the truth. Comment on posts, DM @yellowcitytable, or email megg@yellowcitytable.com.
See you out there—bring an appetite.
