Frog Mariachi Band

The three frogs are no longer on the roof since March 2025. Our waitress did not know where they went or why they were removed. We still had a nice lunch there.

[Brian Wegner, 04/28/2025]

The frogs are now on display in Dallas, Texas, home state of their creator, the late Bob "Daddy-O" Wade.

Frog Band

Chuy's Restaurant has a frog trio playing on the roof.

[Vince, 08/27/2013]

Years ago, we'd encountered souvenirs of lacquered frogs in Mexican outfits, playing cards, pool and musical instruments. The big frogs may be a tribute to that happy taxidermy tradition. They're the work of sculptor Bob Wade from Austin, Texas.
