Anamia's Tex Mex

About the Business

Specialties

Anamia's is the place to savor some of the finest Tex-Mex dishes served with specialty margaritas, tequilas and cervezas.

History

Established in 1996.

The first Anamia's Tex Mex opened in 1996 on Sandy Lake Road in Coppell. That modest strip-center restaurant attracted crowds day and night, and diners often waited just inside the door or outside on the sidewalk for a table. From those humble roots, Anamia's Tex Mex added three sister restaurants and gradually grew into a more upscale, yet still friendly and intimate, gathering place. Now, many consider Anamia's to be one of the best Dallas restaurant choices for Mexican food lovers. Family-owned!

Business Owner

Jay and Anna Ortiz left their restaurant industry jobs behind to pursue their dreams and open their own restaurant -- Anamia's Tex-Mex, named after Anna and their daughter Mia, on Sandy Lake Road in Coppell. That restaurant became so popular that people had to wait inside the door (there really was no proper waiting area) or outside on the sidewalk for a table.Their first success led to others, and, today, there are four Anamia's Tex-Mex locations, with more on the way. But Jay Ortiz has not forgotten his roots, or the loyal customers that made Anamia's Tex-Mex possible.People love what Jay and Anna have created. Jay explains: "We are not a chain; we are family owned and operated -- but we are professional. We're more than a mom-and-pop. We serve our guests with the highest quality, best tasting Tex-Mex around. We keep our dining rooms casual, yet upscale and contemporary, because that is where our guests are most comfortable.
