Where to Eat in Waco for Authentic Jamaican Food
Tru Jamaica is a Jamaican restaurant serving authentic flavors from the island. They unfortunately experienced a fire on December 8, 2022, and as a result, they are temporarily closed while they work to reopen as soon as possible.
In the meantime, if you’re in a position to do so, you can donate to their GoFundMe or give them a call at 254-304-9288 to find out where their food truck is currently located!
The Curry Goat is moist and tender, with a texture similar to your favorite brisket. It is well seasoned with a little kick. The Jerk Chicken is just as tender, with skin so thin, we didn’t even need to take it off.
There are 16 different spices, including Scotch Bonnet Pepper, and a Jerk BBQ sauce made from scratch. It’s sweet with a small kick that make it so flavorful. If you love sauce like me, I was happy to see there was plenty of extra glaze that I mixed into my rice.
Make sure to also order their Coco Bread, made with coconut butter sugar. Its sweetness was reminiscent of a Hawaiian roll. Get it with a beef patty and make a sandwich using the Coco Bread. We loved the crunch of the outside of the beef patty and how it was followed by the soft and slightly spicy interior.
Where to Eat in Waco for a Study Spot with Boba Tea
Cha Community serves a variety of refreshing, premium boba teas and delicious Chinese and Taiwanese food options. Fun fact: the recipe for their dumplings belongs to co-owner Devin’s grandfather! What a special treat! They direct-trade, real ingredients and natural syrups made in-house.
To eat, we ordered their Taiwanese Pork Belly Buns and Pork Dumplings. The Bao buns were fluffy, the pork belly was tender, and the sauce tied it all together perfectly! Their dumplings were hard to put down and they came with a side of rice and a tasty slaw.
We washed it down with a Matcha Latte made with oat milk, house sweetener, and boba. All of their drinks are dairy free, minus their Vietnamese Coffee, with other milk alternatives available as well.
We love how Cha Community takes your favorite drinks and makes them even better by adding a sweet boba surprise!
They also serve non-caffeinated beverages. For example, their Galaxy Lemonade is an herbal butterfly pea tea with lemon syrup and house sweetener.
What was formerly known as “Waco Cha” began as a small tent at Waco’s Downtown Farmer’s Market before it evolved into a food truck, then a pop-up tent during the Pandemic. Eventually, it became the cute, fast-and-casual cafe it is today!
What we love most about co-owners Devin and Jaja’s vision is they want their business to be a place that nurtures connection between people of all backgrounds. To aid in that, you’ll find several tables and chairs, plus a variety of games. However, there’s also an adjacent hallway with seating for college students who are looking for a quiet place to study.
Where to Eat in Waco for Spanish Tapas & Wine
You are in for the perfect date night, girl’s night out, or boozy afternoon pick-me-up at Segovia Wine Bar. Local couple, Courtney and Armando, strive to be a proper tapas wine bar, especially as the only one in Waco.
Inspired by their Spanish heritage and Armando’s two decades of experience as a chef, their extended family worked hand-in-hand to help renovate the space. Armando and his father even built the bar top!
Their menu consists primarily of Spanish and Portuguese wines. Of course, you’ll also find bottles from places like the Napa Valley, France, and local Texas wineries!
If you’re in a rush and on your way to a gathering or at-home dinner date, to-go bottles are 10% off!
As for their tapa selection, you can count on dishes made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
We ordered their Patatas Bravas, a Spanish dish made with crispy potatoes, a housemade, traditional spicy paprika sauce (AKA salsa brava), and garlic aioli. If you’re not much for spice, the salsa brava also comes in smoked and sweet.
We also had one of their charcuterie boards, a beautiful selection of artisanal Spanish meats and cheeses.
Both Courtney and Armando are certified sommeliers, so you can count on their recommendations.
If you’re dipping your toes into the world of wine, give their wine cocktails a try! Their Cava Cocktail is made with a sugar cube covered in angostura bitters, which is then dissolved in a Spanish-style champagne.
Or, try the KaliMotxo Txerry AKA “Poor Man’s Sangria.” According to Courtney, it’s common for lower-shelf wine to be mixed with Coca Cola. The owners decided to put their own twist on this traditional wine cocktail and mix one of their high quality wines with Dr. Pepper Cherry. Afterall, Waco is the home of Dr. Pepper!
You can also catch live music, Wine Wednesday specials, and brunch on Sundays!

Where to Eat in Waco for Fresh Juice & Smoothie Bowls
If you’re looking to add more fruits and vegetables to your diet, Oh My Juice Co. is the easiest, yummiest way to do it!
Choose from cold-pressed juices, smoothies, acai bowls, salads, and snacks like avocado toast with sea salt and tomatoes or locally made bagels.
We decided on one of their build-your-own smoothie bowls. First, you choose the smoothie mixture you want, followed by granola, two toppings, and a drizzle of either agave or honey.
Ours was the Berry Blend Smoothie with their in-house made, coconut almond granola, topped with kiwi, strawberry, and agave.
Where to Eat in Waco for an Affordable, Up-Scale Meal
If you’re looking for a fine dining experience worthy of Austin or Dallas’ top-notch restaurants, Oak & Ivy Wine Bar Bistro is a must!
Co-owner Josh Sims said a lot of people come in for their Cast Iron Cornbread, but their menu is rampant with tasty treasures you have to try!
We started off with the Thai Curry Cauliflower, and of course, the Cast Iron Cornbread with jalapeño butter and candied jalapeños.
For the main course, the Bacon-Wrapped Quail Breast stuffed with apricot and de-seeded jalapenos on a bed of jalapeno mashed potatoes. Josh served ours with a Volver Tempranillo, one of their many wine pairing suggestions on the menu.
We also had the 10-ounce Chargrilled Ribeye with a red wine butter, baby squash in ash oil, and garlic mashed potatoes. For dessert, the Chocolate Maple Pecan Pie.
To drink, we ordered the Texas 36, Smoked Old Fashion, Espresso Martini, and Chocolate Martini.
Their resident sommelier and the wine pairing suggestions included on the menu make dining at Oak & Ivy Wine Bar Bistro that much more up-scale, but for an affordable price!
We loved the elegant dining room and open-kitchen concept! We sat at the bar and watched the kitchen team prepare our food, while still having plenty of space to eat comfortably. Their outdoor seating area also offers great views of the surrounding rolling hills, especially at sunset.
Where to Eat in Waco for Modern Mexican Cuisine
Huaco Lounge specializes in traditional Mexican food with a modern flair, which is apparent from the moment you walk in! Chef Sebastian has brought his experience in large, foodie frontier cities like Dallas, and big-name restaurants like Mi Cocina, to Waco!
We love the intimate dining room and decor; the neon sign, hand painted canvases by a local Mexican artist, and the Tulum pendant lamps overhead. There’s also an elevated, tabletop bar if you’re just popping in for drinks and appetizers.
When Chef Sebastian opened Huaco Lounge, he wanted it to stand out from other Mexican restaurants. He replaced the traditional Mexican decor with a tasteful color palette and elegant touches followed by thoughtfully plated, freshly made dishes that bring the vibrant culture of Mexico to the people of Waco.
We ate in their covered patio space, with several TVs, comfortable booths, and the cutest corner seating area.
Their extensive menu includes everything from sophisticated versions of your favorite street style snacks to entrees inspired by dishes from all over Mexico. Wash it down with one of their signature cocktails, margaritas, beer, wine or horchata!
We started off with their Blueberry Mojito, a Chamoyoda Mango Marg, the Huaco Trio dip with their homemade tortilla chips, and a Mexican Shrimp Cocktail.
As our entree, we had the Enchiladas Manchamanteles, made with homemade tortillas, followed by their fresh churros, filled with caramel, and served with vanilla ice cream and fresh berries for dessert.
To top off the delicious food and beautiful interior, the staff is so friendly! You’ll hear the waiters making conversation with customers and catching up as if they’re old friends.
Check their Instagram for their current specials and events, like Fight Night!
Where to Eat in Waco for a Moody Atmosphere & Unique Cocktails
Don’t miss out on this hidden gem on your next trip to Waco! Sloane’s is an intimate bar and lounge tucked away in a small strip mall near the corner of Washington Avenue and South 25th Street in Uptown Waco. Keep an eye out for Harvest on 25th and it’s a few doors down!
We didn’t know what to expect at first, but after stepping inside, it immediately became one of my favorite stops in Waco! The only source of light was a red neon sign and a projector, adding to the cozy atmosphere.
We ordered their Mango Hot Shot Margarita, made with an in-house made habanero mango tequila, and the El Tango de Roxanne, made with a corn mezcal that gives the drink a slightly smoked, buttery flavor. And their bar snack? Classic Goldfish. Nothing pairs better with cocktails than that.
They actually have themed playlists with some of the most iconic scenes known to cinema. While we were visiting, they were playing a spooky playlist.
The owners of Sloane’s encourage their bartenders to experiment and create, so you never know what will be on the menu the next time you come in! They even have a specials menu board that brings back old customer favorites, but only for a limited time!
Plus, their bartenders are so knowledgeable and will help you navigate their menu if you’re not sure what you’re feeling.
If you’re looking to impress a date or somewhere to unwind with friends, everything about Sloane’s fits the vibe.
Where to Eat in Waco for Sweet & Savory Waffles
Everything perfect in this world you can find at Waco Waffle Co. — ice cream, coffee, and not only sweet waffles, but savory ones too!
Their menu is filled with Waco-themed, brunch-style waffle creations for every appetite, like the Silo, a homemade, jalapeno cheddar waffle topped with cheddar cheese, avocado, fried egg, turkey bacon, fried chicken, and a tasty Hollandaise sauce.
We also had the Webster, a sweet waffle covered with a sweet cream drizzle, strawberries, whipped cream, and Nutella.
Want both sweet and savory? Order a half waffle of each (or order two whole waffles! We don’t judge). You can also personalize your creations with add-ons like peanut butter, peaches, feta, and more!
This means, tasty brunch all week long (7am to 11:30am, Tuesday through Saturday)!
On Fridays and Saturdays, they are open from 7pm to 9pm for dessert where they serve their notorious waffle sundae creations with local, handmade ice cream and all the sweet add-ons you want!
The wall of one-way glass windows and the working water wheel make the exterior of the restaurant a great photo op too!
Where to Eat in Waco for Diner-Style Southern Food
The next stop on our list of great places to eat in Waco was Jake’s Texas Tea House. This retro diner brings a whole new look to Southern cuisine.
When you first hear the words “tea house,” a diner probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. In the 1960’s, the term “Texas Tea” became a popular term to describe crude oil. Since the theme of Jake’s Texas Tea House revolves around cars and gas stations, the name is fitting.
The restaurant is full of vintage décor and antiques that will take you back to the 1950s. The whole place is bright and colorful, giving off a fun and laid-back vibe, reminiscent of simpler times. The old school signs and car parts scattered throughout the restaurant make for the perfect photo opp.
The diner serves classic Southern meals made from scratch. With hearty burgers, steaks, and sandwiches, the menu really gives you the best spread of traditional American cuisine.
The Hubcap Burgers come with several options, all absolutely delicious and mouthwatering. I tried the Cadillac Melt, and I can guarantee that it will take you for the culinary ride of your life. The Pepper Jack cheese, bacon, and onions made for the perfect combination and the jalapeños and poblanos gave it an extra kick of flavor. To top it off, it’s served on grilled jalapeño bread! They also have a wide range of desserts baked fresh daily.
On the first Saturday of the month, the coolest Elvis impersonator pays a visit and gives the most amazing performance. On second Saturdays, Marilyn Monroe puts on a show to complement the 50’s vibes.
Where to Eat in Waco for Lunch with Afternoon Tea
Serving some of the best comfort food in Texas, Sironia Café is a charming eatery with an atmosphere that’ll remind you of home. Surrounded by a plethora of cute boutiques, the café is the perfect place to spend a day of eating and shopping. All of their menu items are made from scratch daily and showcase the best flavors in Waco.
Serving great house specials like hamburger steak and quiche, as well as a variety of burgers and sandwiches, Sironia Café takes comfort food to a whole new level.
They have three different trio options: the Pick Three Trio, the Uptown Trio, and the Sironia Trio. The Sironia Trio came with a cup of soup, a croissant sandwich, and spinach salad. I chose the homemade chicken and wasn’t disappointed. It was savory and delicious!
After you’ve finished your meal, you have to order their dessert. From delectable triple layered cakes to meringue pies, the menu is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. I recommend ordering their famous strawberry cake. It’s a simple dish, but the richness and attention to detail in the preparation made it so delicious. It’s the café’s top-selling dessert for a reason, after all.

Where to Eat in Waco for Homemade Ice Cream
Another fantastic dessert option is Heritage Creamery! Everything is local at this ice cream parlor, including their in-house made ice cream, cones, and jams.
The shop has so many flavors to choose from, so it can be hard to pick just one. I tried out the Sweet Cream Stracciatella and I can’t recommend it enough! It was sweet and creamy in all the right ways, melting right away in my mouth. The ice cream here is perfect for hot days and nights, or to satisfy a craving.
You can also buy pints and ice cream flights with multiple different flavors. Monday through Friday, they have Happy Hour from 2pm to 5pm, where all ice cream is 50 cents off!
Where to Eat in Waco for Cowboy Coffee
Common Grounds is an easygoing coffee shop that doubles as a live music venue. The shop is very welcoming and has some of the best coffee in town!
Their Cowboy Coffee is a collection of drinks made from their secret sauce, which is sweet and perfectly caffeinated. We tried out their original “Cowboy Coffee,” which came with the secret sauce, drip coffee, and whole milk. It was just the right amount of sweet and served as the perfect start for our busy day ahead.
Common Grounds also has a wide selection of house coffees, traditional espressos, and unique house specialties to try.
You’ll find charming rustic décor and an ideal space for working or hanging out. They have an open outdoor area with a beautiful canopy of trees overhead. They regularly have local and national talent come to perform on their concert stage, so check out their website to see who’s coming to town. Be sure to add Common Grounds to your list of where to eat in Waco this weekend!
Where to Eat in Waco for the Best BBQ
It’s not a true Texas trip if you don’t have at least one BBQ joint on your list of where to eat. Helberg BBQ is hands down one of the best places to eat in Waco, so we had to include it on this list.
From the moment you enter the restaurant, you’ll smell the smoking meat. There are shaded picnic tables all around, giving off a great, bona fide Texas barbeque vibe.
We had a meal filled with Cauliflower Steak, Banana Pudding, Mac and Cheese, a corn salad, and Brisket. The brisket was moist with a thick, peppery crust, and it melted right in our mouths. The mac and cheese was so creamy. The corn salad had a kick and the right amount of creaminess without it being too heavy. We also tried their beef sausage, which was so soft and very flavorful. Overall, the food was fantastic and definitely worth the wait!
Where to Eat in Waco for Bubble Tea
1102 Bubble Tea is the cutest boba spot in town! Whether you’re on the lookout for some good bubble tea or yummy pastries, 1102 Bubble Tea is the place to be. The café is decorated with cute pieces that make the place extremely welcoming. There’s a lot of greenery inside that livens up the space, creating the perfect backdrop for your selfies.
They have a menu filled with a variety of different bubble tea and coffee flavors, including organic and caffeine free options. I tried the Lavender Milk Tea and loved that I got to choose the sugar level to make the drink just right for me. I was really impressed by how well the lavender mixed with the tea, creating the perfect balance of flavors.
1102 Bubble Tea also serves desserts like ice cream, flan, and macaroons, along with a menu of small eats. The Chicken Dumplings and Crunchy Crab Meat paired well with our bubble tea and made for a great afternoon snack.

Where to Eat in Waco for Crazy Good Cookies
If you’re like me and love a good dessert, you have to check out Milk Bottle Cookies. Serving some of the best cookies that Waco has to offer, they come in a variety of flavors like Cookies and Cream, Peanut Butter, and Chocolate Chip. The cookies are absolutely scrumptious, with a slight crunch on the outside and a soft center.
We tried several different options and were impressed by them all, especially the unique flavors like Banana Cream Pie and Citrus. They also serve coffee and bottled milk, which pair great with their cookies! If you happen to have Balcones Distilling on your list of things to do in Waco, it’s right across the street!
Where to Eat in Waco for “Czexan” Food
Pivovar is a Czech inspired hotel with a full-service restaurant serving Czech and Texas-inspired dishes. You have to add this place to your list of where to eat in Waco!
We ordered their Czech Fried Cheese, Pivovar Truffled Gnocchi, and the Czexan Schnitzel. I love to order schnitzel when it shows up on a menu, so I have to say, it was one of the best I’ve had! The seasoning was spot on, and it was as crisp as it was moist.
The interior of the restaurant, as well as the entirety of the hotel, are filled with nods to Czech culture and Pilsner Lager’s conception and roots. Most unique of all, the hotel offers Beer Spa treatments and massages, even if you aren’t a guest of the hotel. Read our review of the Pivovar Hotel, then call to book a room or spa experience of your own!
@mycurlyadventures ?Who knew beer could be so good for you!? One of the coolest spa experience we’ve had in Texas #texas ♬ Feel No Ways – Drake
And Czech Pastries
The Pivovar’s on-site bakery serves authentic Czech delights and treats. From breads to pastries, the bakery has a variety of tasty items to choose from. It wouldn’t be a proper Czech stop if you didn’t try a kolache! They have options with meat or fruit.
I tried one of both and was amazed at how delicious they were. You can expect their bread to be baked fresh daily and prepared in accordance with traditional European recipes.
Where to Eat in Waco for Coffee & Cocktails on a Rooftop
Another great coffee joint in the Waco area is Dichotomy Coffee & Spirits. It has a chic, modern vibe mixed with vintage touches. The establishment screams sophistication while still maintaining a fun atmosphere, making it a great place to relax, day or night.
Local art lines the walls, showcasing some of the best talent in the area. There is also rooftop seating where you can enjoy cocktails with an amazing view of the city courthouse and downtown Waco.
The menu includes a wide variety of coffee and cocktail options that you’re sure to enjoy.
I tried the 1885, an iced drink made with Waco’s favorite, Dr. Pepper, and espresso. Ask for it “animal style” and your barista will add vanilla and half and half. It’s definitely something that you have to try, as it was such a unique combination, working wonders on my tastebuds. I also ordered a Bluebonnet Latte, with the perfect balance of bitter and sweet.

Where to Eat in Waco for Phenomenal Fusion
If you’re looking for a place with a variety of options, you have to try out Union Hall. Union Hall is filled with over 20 different vendors, each with an extensive food menu, so you’ll absolutely find something for everyone. The Union Hall brings a sense of community into their establishment, showcasing the best of what Waco has to offer.
We tried out a variety of different things, starting with Cambodian food at Blasian Asian. They serve traditional food with a twist, making this fusion absolutely delicious. At King’s Wings, we got their medium hot Louisiana wings with fries.
Everything was so good! We can’t wait to go back to eat at the other vendors we didn’t get a chance to try.
Permanently Closed
- Be Kind – Although they are no longer located inside Union Hall, Be Kind Coffee has multiple locations across Waco, so you still have the chance to try them!
- Unshakeable – They are no longer open, but their hope is to open a new location in the near future.
Where to Eat in Waco for Farm-to-Table Southern Food
Straight from the farm to your table, Milo All Day serves amazing Southern fare made entirely from scratch for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The restaurant is adorned with plants, rope wrapped chairs, a beautiful bar with a blue tile backsplash, and aeronautically themed bar stools. There’s even a spacious outdoor patio!
Our server recommended we try the Red Snapper, which proved to be an excellent choice. It was prepared to perfection and was absolutely delectable!
We also tried the Elote Corn Ribs, slices of corn with Cotija cheese and ancho aioli. The corn comes on the cob, but it’s not hard to eat at all. You can choose to eat the kernels off the cob or eat the “ribs” whole.
The menu also comes with all sorts of spirits, wines, beers, and cocktails to enjoy with your meal, making for a great lunch or dinner out on the town.

Where to Eat in Waco for Chocolates & Small-Batch Ice Cream
At Splendid Oaks Chocolate and Ice Cream, the desserts are almost too pretty to eat. Almost. The dessert shop opened in the fall of 2020, home to an artisan chocolatier who makes their chocolates by hand and in small batches with the finest ingredients.
There are so many different and unique chocolates to choose from, so it can make the decision a bit overwhelming. That’s why we got a variety box where we could choose several we wanted to try. Choose from different box sizes and make sure to see if they have any off-menu flavors available for you to try.
Splendid Oaks also sells Graeter’s ice cream, which has a 150-year-old history, making it the oldest family-owned and operated ice cream producer in America. Their ice cream batches are only made two gallons at a time!
You can also order an ice cream flight that comes with 8 different flavors, or a delicious milkshake.
Where to Eat in Waco for Food from Joanna Gaines Herself
Magnolia Table is a Waco staple that you have to add to your list of where to eat this weekend. With a menu based on Joanna Gaines’ recipes, the restaurant also serves specials directly out of her cookbook.
From all-day breakfast to amazing brunch and lunch options, Magnolia Table serves a variety of Southern cuisine that are truly the heart of Waco.
The meat used at the restaurant is from 44 Farms, a local farm that raises free range pasture cows, making for some of the best meat you’ll ever have. The restaurant is a mix of modern and rustic décor, with plants and farm style tables. There’s a beautiful outdoor patio with vines growing within the walls of the covered area, as well as uncovered seating options.
Magnolia Table doesn’t serve alcohol, but their coffee is amazing! They use Press Coffee, a small batch, coffee roastery.
The food is fantastic, especially the biscuits. They were so fluffy and airy and weren’t too thick or dry. They fell apart easily, attesting to just how good they are.
We ordered the French Toast Crunch, served with whipped cream, strawberries, and covered with a homemade caramel cornflake crunch. Trust me, it tasted even better than it sounds (if that’s possible). Don’t waste any of the butter from the biscuits either! I recommend adding it to the French Toast Crunch for an extra treat.
Where to Eat in Waco for Literature & Literary Coffees
Fabled Bookshop & Cafe is a coffee shop that doubles as a bookstore. Their menu consists of your usual coffee drinks and teas, as well as literary-inspired drinks, like the Muggle Mocha. We were surprised when the barista handed it to us! There was a lightning bolt made out of chocolate butterscotch powder on top!
The shelves are lined with books on a variety of topics! Choose from cooking, home design, fiction, non-fiction, and more! You’ll notice some of the books have notes from the staff about what they thought of them. If you’re having a hard time choosing, this is a great way to receive guidance from well-versed readers!
There’s also a puzzle table, chess, window seating with natural sunlight, plants, plus comfy chairs, a dim study nook, and even a kid’s room where they host story time on Wednesdays at 10:30am.

Their menu includes unique drinks like the Dutch Delight (a maple pecan breve cappuccino with a warm stroopwafel), as well as seasonal drinks like the Heirloom (a strawberry cortado with a piece of dark chocolate). Their affogatos are even made with homemade vanilla ice cream!
Not one for coffee? Order a matcha, an earl grey tea, or a chai.
You’ll be amazed at all of the windows and natural light! There are beautiful wood beams and unique chandeliers overhead. There’s a variety of seating, from tables and booths to couches and outdoor picnic tables under the shade of a big tree.
Permanently Closed
These places may be permanently closed but still have a special place in our heart (plus we hate when we can’t find a place we previously remembered and enjoyed). So these remain on our list even though they may not exist anymore in case you hold onto memories of them the same way we do. We’re weird and sentimental.
Butter My Biscuit
Delve into the universe of one of your favorite games at Butter My Biscuit. The café is incorporated into King’s Landing, a game store full of board games and themed merchandise. You’ll also find items from your favorite pop culture franchises, including Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Pokémon. Last but not least, their shelves are stocked with retro games, collectibles, and RPG games like Overwatch.
Some of their menu items are themed and based on fan favorites, like Pac-Man, and their coffee menu is just as fun!
Try themed drinks like the Princess Zelda, a mocha and lavender latte, or a Coffee Sunrise made with orange juice and espresso. If you drink it while the mixture is still separated into layers, your first few sips will consist of mostly orange juice. Mix it up and the espresso becomes more distributed, and you’ll end up feeling like you’re drinking an iced latte with a hint of orange.
Then, take home their unique coffee blends, made in partnership with Bridge City Waco, to remember your weekend trip!
We tried the Lee’s Breakfast Tacos and the Biscuit French Toast, made to taste just like banana pudding! It was hearty and appetizing, making for the perfect breakfast to start off our long day. For those arriving later in the day, they also have an evening menu with equally delicious options.
Butter My Biscuit hosts fun game nights and tournaments in the back room throughout the week, but the room is also available if you just want to hang out and play games with your friends and family. Indulge in some Pac-Man and try your hand at beating the high score.
@mycurlyadventures Biscuits and board games end up being the perfect combo with a little bit of Harry Potter theme ?? #texas ♬ Fame – Irene Cara
