Eating and Adventuring in Brownsville, Texas
Brownsville, Texas USA
The secret is out! Brownsville is a true Texas hidden gem 💎. Can’t stop thinking about the food—plus interesting nature and wildlife. So much to do, so much to eat! 🍽️🌮✈️ #TexasToDo #LetsTexas #VisitBTX
Yes, the Taco Trail was a highlight 🌮🌮🌮! Calacas Tacos & Beer wowed me with quesabirria tacos dipped in house-made consume…crispy carnitas-style pork belly chicharron guacamole, elote and more. My Michelada 🍺, topped with pickles and gummi worms in chamoy—you gotta try it! @calacastacosbeer
Sabal Palm Sanctuary is a treasured birding and nature space. Peek at Mexico across the Rio Grande River from an observation deck. Learn about native plants and birds along 3 miles of walking trails. Wildly cool! 🌿 🐦 @sabalpalmsanctuary
What a joy to explore the local resacas 💦—a special kind of oxbow lake unique to the RGV. My guide Aaron was so passionate about getting people outdoors, and knowledgeable about all the cool birds we heard and saw along the way. 🛶🐦 @brownsvillekayaks
I adore Jolie Petite with a feminine pink interior and classy vibe. I sampled it all, from beautiful croissants and a French Kiss cocktail, crabe benedictine, quiche lorraine, and my fav, the biscuits & duck gravy. Bonus—homemade rhubarb jam. 🙌 @joliepetite.btx
Had a mix of cultures in my birria ramen bowl 🍜 at @kuyashiijapanesekitchen, and @dodicipizza’s brick oven pizza and blow-torched cesar salad was 🔥🔥🔥! 🍕🥗
And Brownsville is home to a 2025 Texas James Beard Award semi-finalist, Chef Eugino Uribe. Le Rêve served up delicious dishes with layers of flavor, from the crispy bomba rice with sea urchin to asparagus and crab meat in a citrus butter sauce. Loved the presentation of the glazed duck breast. And hello, a burger with bacon-jam and bone marrow mayo? Tastebuds are happy. 🍽️ @le.reve.restaurant
Not to forget, the popular Gladys Porter Zoo and botanical park! With 377 species of animals, wide open spaces for gorillas and rhinos, a cool aviary and more. Need to come back to see the ocelot! @gladysporterzoo
High five to the 956! 🙌
