Chito's Authentic Mexican Restaurant served its first plates at a new Frisco address on October 4, ending a roughly two-year hiatus for the restaurant. The restaurant now operates at 9145 John Elliot Drive, right next to the Frisco Fresh Market, a far cry from its old perch across the street from Toyota Stadium.

The original location at 6129 Main Street in Frisco Square had been serving tacos, burritos, enchiladas, soups, salads, tamales and other Mexican cuisine before closing in June 2024, according to Community Impact. That 8,279-square-foot Frisco Square space had previously been home to Mattito's Tex-Mex before Chito's moved in, per the same outlet's earlier reporting.

The old storefront didn't sit empty for long. Buffalo-based wing chain Anchor Bar took over the former Chito's space in December 2025, opening a sports bar directly across Main Street from the stadium, according to Texas is Life.

FC Dallas Played Across From Chito's Former Location

In August 2023, FC Dallas faced Inter Miami CF at Toyota Stadium, across the street from Chito's former Frisco Square location.

Chito's new restaurant is at 9145 John W. Elliott Drive, next to Frisco Fresh Market.

Signature Dishes and Civic Recognition

Before closing in 2024, Chito's served tacos, burritos, enchiladas, soups, salads, tamales and other Mexican cuisine.

The reopening also lands amid a broader wave of Tex-Mex activity in Frisco. The city's dining scene saw expanded competition in 2026, including the September opening of Mero Mero Tex Mex on Dallas Parkway, a 4,568-square-foot restaurant that joined the growing list of options for Frisco diners. For Chito's, the move to John Elliot Drive marks a fresh chapter at its new location.
