Celebrities<\/a>, like anyone, know it’s a Texas rite of passage to grab\u00a0Tex-Mex food and indulge in some of the region’s best barbecue when visiting the Lone Star State<\/a>. Ariana Grande can now\u00a0say she’s done at least one of those things while in town for her shows this week in Central Texas.<\/p>\n The popstar surprised guests dining at De Nada Cantina<\/a>, a popular Tex-Mex spot in Austin known for serving some of the city’s strongest margaritas. Grande was spotted inside the restaurant posing for photos with fans<\/a>, which quickly went viral online.<\/p>\n The “thank u, next” singer is currently in Austin this week for her three-night run of shows at the Moody Center on her\u00a0Eternal Sunshine tour. Her first show was\u00a0Wednesday, June 24 and her next two are on Friday, June 26 (Grande’s birthday) and Saturday, June 27.<\/p>\n In addition to her concerts,\u00a0Grande is also having a week-long pop-up in Austin located at 800 N. Congress Ave<\/a>, where her fans can purchase exclusive tour merchandise including T-shirts, vinyls, keychains and more.<\/p>\n While it’s unclear what the Wicked star may have ordered at De Nada, her fans confirmed her presence at the restaurant in various social media posts and videos.
