Delicious: Sundown at Granada

Green is everywhere at Sundown at Granada, the beer garden beside Granada Theater on Lower Greenville. Vines weave up the stair railing and planter boxes line the spacious outdoor seating area. Even the name “Sundown at Granada” oozes a sort of Garden of Eden-esque radiance. For owners Mike Schoder and Julia Garton, green is the name of the game. Although Sundown’s large selection of beers, specialty cocktails and wines are its moneymaker, the restaurant and bar has made a name for itself with its organic, farm-to-table food options made with grass-fed beef, such as the hearty Shiner Bock brisket bites, as well as its many vegan and vegetarian options, such as the sweet and light hammered goat flatbread. The venue also is known for its free live music every night. From Sunday through Thursday, bands kick off at 10 p.m. and on Friday and Saturday they start at 11 p.m.
