(Mix 93-1) Build it, and they will come! That seems to be the name of the game for restaurants in and around Tyler, Texas.

What to Expect at Smalls Sliders

This black and orange 'container' restaurant will be serving up some bite-sized tasty burgers. The catch to Smalls Sliders is that it's a walk-up and drive-thru restaurant only. Don't expect to go inside and dine! The menu looks pretty easy with just a few choices, so you shouldn't have to wait long to make a decision. The only real question is how many sliders you’re going to eat.

New Seafood Restaurant Planned for Tyler

That's not all the news when it comes to new restaurants. Skippers Pier Coastal Cajun Kitchen in Gladewater announced on social media that the seafood hotspot will be expanding and opening a location in Tyler. The new seafood restaurant is going to be called 'F Is For Fish'.

A clever name for a fish restaurant. It will also serve Gulf shrimp and seafood baskets. The social media post did not mention a location but says it will be opening by mid-May. One clever commenter guesses the location will be the old Razzoo's building on S Broadway. Skippers Pier Coastal Cajun Kitchen replied, 'good guess'! So there you have it - the location!
