Mattito’s brings Tex-Mex fare to Flower Mound Je Frankel’s career in the restaurant business began with yogurt as a teen and has evolved into Tex-Mex cuisine in adulthood. Mattito’s Flower Mound location opened May 2022. Frankel, Mattito’s founder and owner, said he wanted to bring high-end Tex-Mex cuisine to Flower Mound. His two other Mattito’s restaurants are in Dallas. The background In choosing Flower Mound, Frankel said he and partner Jim Lannom looked for a place where the restaurant would grow. “We were certainly looking for a higher-end cus- tomer,” Frankel said. Zooming in Mattito’s stands out on a number of fronts such as the quality and product itself, but also the recipes the restaurant uses, Frankel said. “The quality of the recipes, the quality of the sauces, the avor prole that we have, and we haven’t changed that over the course of our history,” he said. Popular dishes are chile rellenos, fajitas and Bob Armstrong dip, the last of which is o the menu and must be requested. “Probably more people know us for that than anything else,” Frankel said, noting the dip features a number of ingredients like beef and chile con queso. The restaurant has catering, bar service and banquet rooms.
