Troy Aikman To Open Restaurant At Texas Live! In Arlington

ARLINGTON, TX — Former Dallas Cowboy and NFL Hall-of-Famer Troy Aikman unveiled details Tuesday for his first restaurant and entertainment concept, which will open within Texas Live! in the Arlington Entertainment District.

Aikman presented plans for the venue, which will be called Troy's, as part of a first look at the construction progress of Texas Live!, a $250 million world-class dining, entertainment and hospitality district.

Troy’s, which will debut with the project late this summer, will join the likes of Arlington Backyard, Live! Arena, Rangers Republic, the country’s flagship PBR Country Bar, Revolver Brewing and Lockhart Smokehouse in anchoring Texas Live!.

North Texans can enjoy the summer sunshine on Troy's expansive, lush outdoor patio space centered around a beautiful Live Oak tree. An indoor/outdoor stage in the middle will welcome live music seven days a week from a variety of local and regional acts.

Additionally, Troy’s will feature a major LED display for a premier sports viewing experience.

“The opportunity to be a part of a world-class development in the heart of America’s Capital of Sports and Entertainment is incredibly exciting for me,” Aikman said. “We are working to create the perfect blend of dining and socializing that I hope people will love for years to come.”

The menu will offer a selection of American classics, Mexican flare, healthy options and a curated selection of adult beverages.

“We could not be more honored that Troy Aikman decided to open his first restaurant at Texas Live!,” said Reed Cordish, Principal of The Cordish Companies. “His plans for the concept are outstanding and we know that it will be a wonderful addition to Texas Live! and Arlington Entertainment District.”

Texas Live!will feature 200,000 square feet of best-in-class local, regional and national dining and entertainment and a 5,000-capacity outdoor event pavilion. The project will open late this summer between the Texas Rangers’ Globe Life Park and the Dallas Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX and will sit directly adjacent to the Rangers’ new Globe Life Field when it opens in 2020.
