BBQ-Hutchins PIzza- Cavalli Pizza Breakfast- Bill Smith's or Starwood Cafe Thai- Silk Road Chinese Food-Red Lantern Burgers- One and Only Burger and Fries or Square Burger Steakhouse- Rick's Chophouse Sandwich- The Butcher Board or Patina Green Mexican Food- Bien Salsa Donuts- The Donut Kitchen Cajun- Bayou Jack's Italian- Italian Garden American- Harvest Seasonal Kitchen (my favorite restaurant in Collin County) or Sugarbacon Proper Kitchen
Downtown/Square area is definitely the hub for good food in McKinney

Best donuts in DFW, no one else is even close and they are located in McKinney.
Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

Funny how much opinions can differ. I've never had a good meal at Jalapenos. NDN98 covered a lot of good ones, but I would add Durkins Pizza to the list.

If you want some fried fish or seafood Super Shack is good. 75 N just N of Eldorado.
If like my son and I you sometimes like to eat a burger sitting on the tailgate Bakers on McDonald is a good choice.

Bakers is dammmmmmm good. The celt has awesome fish n chips and cold guinness Spoons has a great breakfast, ckn fried steak, and bloody mary Harvest is pretty good for an uppity date night And if you like beer go to Franconia brewery. Saturdays from 11-1 all you can drink beer for 5 bucks.

Best gas station tacos and burritos, DEL SUR. Shell station corner of Lake Forest and Eldorado.
Best Italian food in the area, Mio Nono. Technically in Allen on Stacy Rd about a mile west of 75. Don't matter because it is THE BEST.

Update on bakers
We went last night, bave alwways gone in the day. Bring a handgun, the neighnorhood is very shady. I was drinkin beer and don't carry when I am but wished I was. A crack head came up to my vehicle and wanted 75 cents. She was shaking badly and glaring at my wife and daughter. Looking back I would have like to have handled it differently.

If you want one of the best meat markets in Texas check out Local Yocal just north of the Square on Tennessee. My coworkers rave about Thai Noodle Wave on 75 just North of Eldorado. I haven't tried it but it's on my list. Other than that I think the restaurants have been covered.

Harvest if you can eat on the company’s dime. Sugarbacon as well. Both pricey but great.

Mr. Tako at 380 and 5 gets my vote for best tacos. Butcher board is good for sammiches. Rick's chophouse has a surprisingly good taco soup.

on fridays. Hutchins has a jalepeno stuffed with cream cheese and brisket, then wrapped in bacon. Smoked with a little bit of BBQ sauce. Amazing. They call them twinge as twinkles or something?
