Stephan Pyles Resurrects Stampede 66 in Allen | Eater Dallas

"Owned by Stephan Pyles, the restaurant has relocated from its Uptown outpost to a hotel in Allen at 777 Watters Creek Boulevard after an abrupt October closure blamed on flagging attendance. About 90 percent of the menu made the move north, preserving favorites such as the Shiner Bock beer bread, honey-fried chicken, mashed potato tots, chicken-fried buffalo steak, and chili pie. Pyles attributed the Uptown shutdown to a saturated restaurant market, nearby construction, and vacant real estate, and says developers in Collin County had long encouraged a move north; he’s hopeful the Allen location will be a better fit given a relative dearth of notable dining options up north." - Alaena Hostetter
