Like most of Milkshake’s Concept restaurants (which include Harper’s and Stirr) The Finch has an eclectic air. It’s a sophisticated eatery where guests can arrive dressed to the nines, enjoy crafty spins on traditional plates, and bond over well-designed cocktails. The interior design of The Finch has hardwood floors, blue and white seating and wood […]
Restaurant in Dallas Observer
Showing 551 - 572 of 1695While it bills itself as a neighborhood joint, Fireside Pies is still a chain, albeit a local one. It slings out crusty, pecan-wood-fired oven pizzas, like the fresh mozzarella (market tomatoes, hand-torn basil and balsamic vinegar) and the spicy Italian sausage with scamorza and roasted red onions. The rustic method of making pies is echoed […]

Things you won’t find here: egg rolls, sweet-and-sour pork, chicken chow mein. You will find some of the finest and most authentic Cantonese-Vietnamese food available, with a heavy use of seafood (including shrimp) and organ meats. Don’t knock it until you’ve tried. The seafood hot-pot is not to be missed.
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 […]
Surely the fry cooks at the defunct Long John Silvers location that now houses Fish Shack never imagined fashioning whitefish ceviche or grilling rainbow trout, both can’t-miss specialties at this humble counter-service joint in Plano. What elevates the offerings is fish fresh enough to please even a one-legged pirate: Delivery trucks visit the restaurant no […]
Wolfgang Puck’s Dallas outpost is as brilliant as you would hope an acclaimed chef’s restaurant could be-creative fare, professional service, and great views from the rotating tower. Of course, the big guy doesn’t man the kitchen. That job is handled by Jacob Williamson. His presentations are modern Asian, from surprisingly subtle curries to crispy suckling […]
Flatrock Smokehouse first opened in Euless just prior to the pandemic, and eventually left that spot because of the many challenges restaurants faced during that time. They’ve reopened in The Colony. Here owner Robert Davis runs a large A.N. Bewley smoker just off the patio that turns out a plethora of smoked proteins. We ordered […]
After more than a decade at his self-titled restaurant, serving his famous standards – tamale tart, cowboy rib-eye, heaven and hell cake – Stephan Pyles banished them to another concept and started anew at Flora Street Caf
This small bar inside Love Field is accessible for non-ticked passengers; on the friendly side of security so you won’t have to take your shoes off. The most (perhaps only) notable part of this bar is what lies beyond; a light and marker noting exactly where LBJ took his Oath of Office aboard Air Force […]
Taking inspiration from East Texas fish shacks with the design to match, the grub here is exactly as the restaurant’s name suggests-catching air from the kitchen to your table. The fresh, seasonal catch is a must: catfish, shrimp and oysters, grilled fish, shrimp cocktail, fish cocktail, crab legs and mudbugs. The staff offers daily specials, […]
The specialty of any pub-restaurant is, of course, food that goes well with beer. The dishes here–lots of wursts, sandwiches and snack-type foods–surpass standard pub fare, but the main attraction at this Sundance Square establishment is beer, with more than 75 varieties on tap and close to 200 in bottles.
Known more for its extensive beer menu than its basic bar grub menu, Flying Saucer has more than a dozen locations, and this one makes good use of an old Colter’s Texas BBQ joint. The bar has more than 200 beers to choose from, with a whopping 90-plus beers on draft. While it can be […]

The Flying Saucer is a local chain that has one person in mind–the adventurous beer drinker. The Saucer has over 100 beers on tap from all over the world, and even more in bottles. The selection is constantly rotating, so in order to keep up, you must visit often. Not only is it a great […]
Dallas’ original churrascaria Brazilian steakhouse – where gauchos haul around dripping hunks of meat – is still going strong, catering to hordes of men from the high-tech corridor. In fact, at lunch you might get run over by a gaucho zipping to someone’s table in the packed dining room. The meats – from leg of […]
Get ready for a new addition to the Dallas pizza scene, New-Haven pizza. Fortunate Son pizza shop brings a new style for everyone to try, similar to Neapolitan, these New-Haven pizzas will be made oval and charred for longer at a lower temperature, in order to get a chewer, softer crust. The atmosphere of Fortunate […]
The best xiao long bao (soup dumplings) in the area are the stars at Fortune House, a Shanghainese mainstay on the north side of Irving. But don’t miss the fried buns, either; they’re steamed and fried, the crispy bottom and moist top producing two different colors and textures. Aside from buns, dumplings and the occasional […]
