Coppell Restaurant Guide

Our chef-inspired American menu moves far beyond the ordinary at J. Macklin's Grill. Hip Potato Chips tossed in Tabasco, fresh lime and sea salt tender smoked brisket complemented with pablano slaw and sweet hickory sauce for Texas-inspired Brisket Tacos, hand battered chicken tenders with homemade hickory and honey mustard dipping sauces, a menu diverse enough for the sophisticated date night, yet simple enough for family enjoyment. Our delightful selection of seafood showcases Miso Glazed Salmon, Mahi Mahi sandwich, and Fresh Fish of the Day...all enhanced with imaginative regional flavors, without diminishing your wallet.

Taste delights continue with delicious frozen bellinis and margaritas, draft and bottled beer and a full selection of our sommelier-developed wines that you can enjoy as you dine, or in the relaxed ambience of the separate bar.

At J. Macklin's Grill, you'll perfect the art of unwinding in a space that's warm and welcoming, with food that's fun and satisfying, and with drinks that will keep the conversations running long into the night! Whether you are inside enjoying the mellow ambiance or outside people watching from the patio, J. Macklin's Grill is sure to provide an unparalleled casual dining experience.

Restaurateur Todd Kerr began his career as owner of The State Club Grill and Bar in 1986 just off the doorstep of North Texas State University (now University of North Texas). 10 years later, he established Macklin's Catering Co. which is still running strong under the direction of Kerr and the culinary influence of Chef Timothy Mozell.

Kerr and Mozell team up again at J. Macklin's Grill, carrying over both the family name and the same delicious food into the Coppell community. And for those of you who remember Kerr from his NTSU days you'll be happy to know you can get those same Famous State Club Chicken Tenders now at J. Macklin's Grill!
