18th & Vine’s name comes from the neighborhood that put Kansas City jazz on the map, and the main dining room’s cream-colored walls pay homage to those roots with photos of KC greats like Charlie Parker and Count Basie. The decor is classic and upscale eclectic, with none of the kitschy country touches that seem […]

A tidal wave of Nashville- and Memphis-style hot chicken restaurants hit the Dallas area in 2020. The city’s biggest food fad is available at more than a dozen spots around town and in the suburbs, but 2 Neighbors stands out for three reasons. First, 2 Neighbors pounds the chicken breasts used in its sandwiches to […]
20 Feet is what you get when two really good chefs try to simultaneously capture the casual elegance of a small Manhattan seafood restaurant and the glorious excess of a New England clam shack. The small dining room joins Good 2 Go Taco and Goodfriend Beer Garden and Burger House on Peavy Road in East […]
Start your day off with a flight of mimosas at the neon-pink brunch spot. Try the Flaming Apple Whiskey Cakes, which come with an age restriction: so much booze in the things you have to be 21 or older to order. Thick and fluffly Lemon Poppy pancakes with a housemade lemon sauce, which is more […]

This two-story bistro blends cuisines from around the Mediterranean: Italian, French and Middle Eastern. The casual air and wide-ranging menu make it a popular spot, especially for slurping up some wonderful osso bucco, the exceedingly tender, long-stewed veal shanks that are a house specialty. Quaint and very romantic setting.

The Mediterranean sweets became so popular that they decided to sell […]
This is a new spot from Fried Jesus, Abel Gonzalez, who has been a vendor at the State Fair of Texas. He has five Big Texas Awards on his trophy shelf. But this spot is different. This restaurant is a mix of smoked meats and classic Mexican fare. Be sure to try a fajita quesadilla. […]
