A tiny gas station and market anchoring the outside corner of an otherwise nondescript strip mall has become a center of natural living near White Rock Lake. Good 2 Go Tacos may no longer be serving its wildly popular and inventive gourmet tacos out of the back of the store, but that hasn’t kept Green […]

Jazz music is one of the biggest exports from The University of North Texas in Denton, which has jazz musicians coming from all over the world to study at the school’s esteemed program. And when they’re not fine-tuning their craft, students congregate at The Green House for strong drinks and, well, more jazz. On Thursdays, […]
Pizza shouldn’t be crushed under the weight of a farm field of ingredients. That’s the guiding principle at Sammy Mandell and Chris Cook’s pizzeria, though customers have the option to weigh down pies with everything from grilled shrimp to zucchini. If you don’t have enough room in your gut for a The Mes-Kin, with sour […]
The menu says wedge, but what you get is more like a half-sphere. Greenz doesn’t mess around while plating up roughage. Portion sizes here are generous, and ingredients are fresh. In a burger-heavy town, it’s nice to see a restaurant focus on veg. But don’t think Greenz is synonymous with healthy. That wedge comes with […]
A sister restaurant to the famed Grimaldi’s under the Brooklyn Bridge in the DUMBO neighborhood, for whose products devotees wait hours for a pie, this shop serves Neapolitan-style pizzas from a coal-fired brick oven. Take your pick from 12-, 16- or 18-inch pizza pies topped with anything from anchovies and jalapeño to Kalamata olives and […]

There is no Korean food here. Well, there are some rice bowls, but they only pay lip service to the complexities of authentic Korean cookery. There’s sushi, though, and lots of it. The sushi bar turns out enough rolls with goofy names to fill the entire side of a one-page menu. That menu is geared […]
Inhabiting a 1940s-era house (hence, hacienda) on Henderson, this restaurant brings the Tex-Mex and homey feeling to a crowded, high-energy entertainment district. It’s an extremely colorful and frenetic home, one filled with Mexican kitsch, burritos, enchiladas, tacos and fajitas during lunch and dinner. The chicken enchiladas with pepperjack cheese and sour cream tomatillo salsa, chile […]
Chinese hot pot is similar in many respects to fondue: it’s an interactive dining experience where the center of table contains a simmering pot of soup into which various raw ingredients such as veggies, meat, seafood, tofu, etc., are placed for quick cooking. The ingredients are sliced thinly to facilitate the fast-cooking process, and the […]

Dangling miniature Christmas lights and plastic fish combined with tin pails of saltine crackers on all the tables give this dim, narrow seafood eatery in the middle of the Park Cities a surprising slightly laid-back, urban seaport feel. Start out with a batch of iced, fresh oysters on the half shell. If the famous slither […]
Hanasho is located in a slightly dingy Irving strip mall, but don’t let that dissuade you. Sushi and sashimi are impeccably fresh, and certain varieties can be had during happy hour for just a buck. Hamachi collar and delectably fatty toro are standouts. Besides the requisite raw fish, this traditional sushi joint also offers other […]

Hangry Joe’s is a franchise from Virginia with a location in south Dallas in the Redbird area off Camp Wisdom Road. The menu is pretty straightforward. They serve on-the-bone chicken, sandwiches and tenders. Heat levels start at zero, meaning no spice, with five more increasingly hotter levels. The final, angry hot, requires customers to sign […]
Mostly we lean toward off-the-beaten-path bars, speakeasies and low-key places with quirky personalities. Happiest Hour is none of those. This is that one friend who is always in your face, “You’re having a damn good time, like it or not.” It’s a great spot to pregame for anything at the American Airlines Center, which is […]
Happy Lemon, a Taiwan-based boba tea company, is famous for bubble teas, citrusy teas and slushies, as well as bubble waffles and salted cheese drinks. The menu is extensive and complicated for someone with no experience in cheese drinks, ice and sugar ratios, or boba, but in our experience the staff is super helpful with […]
