Want Some New Restaurants to Eat at in Tyler, TX? 10 Suggestions

It's called your evoked set. Probably the only thing I recall from my Marketing classes at UT Tyler. An evoked set is defined as "the brands that come to a consumer's mind when a need for a product or service arises. These are considered acceptable brands based on the consumer's perception of their products, and their brand equity with a consumer."

When it comes to dining out we all basically have four or five places that we wind up going to. Not because there aren't other great choices, it's just easier to go to a place that we know. A place we know will meet our needs.

And we've all been there, you try some place new, have a terrible experience and wind up back at the same old reliable place the following week. Which isn't a bad thing, but... Meanwhile we all complain, "I REALLY wanna try some place new, or different!"

Earlier this week Kelly D. posted in the Tyler, Tx Rants, Raves, & Recommendations page asking for suggestions for places to try out in Tyler. So I thought if you're anything like me (and my wife) you might be interested in hearing about a potentially few new-to-you restaurants that our fellow Tyler-ites are recommending.

So at the risk of blowing up a few folks' most favorite places, here we go. We've got ten, or so, suggestions taken directly from the comments section for you (and me) to try out. Let's expand our evoked set together, shall we?

Also, why didn't any of y'all tell me that What About Kabob's is re-opened? Good thing for y'all I'm too excited to be upset.
