Here, there are 16 flavors, ranging from the tried and true (old-fashioned vanilla) to the gaining in popularity (New York cheesecake).

Restaurant in Dallas Observer
Showing 727 - 748 of 1695
New Yorkers George Itoh (by way of Wisconsin) and Andy Tam moved to Dallas after falling in love with the Deep Ellum neighborhood, eventually opening their restaurant in late 2018 in the spot previously occupied by Tanoshii. Start with the age mochi for an appetizer: a deep-fried mochi rice cake with dhoyutare sauce and ao […]
Southern restaurants are all the rage right now, and Ida Claire steps into the fray with her version of shrimp and grits, chicken and waffles and jalape
Very good steaks and fair-to-good seafood in an atmosphere of cowboy excess. This huge grand hotel-like restaurant must be experienced at least once.

First, there is the location. Deep Ellum practically craved a restaurant like Il Cane Rosso to arouse a sense of “dining-destination” resurgence. It’s a casual restaurant suitable for everything from date nights to young families to special-event get-togethers. The surprisingly spacious dining room has a polished bohemian feel to it, which befits the restaurant’s location. […]
The specialty here is extraordinary noodles, handmade to order. Place an order for beef noodle soup or minced pork noodles and the chef appears at a long, prominently placed counter, forming dough and flamboyantly teasing it out to great length. He slams the dough against the counter, spins it out mid-air and tugs it all […]
The California chain restaurant has been serving up burgers since 1948. The menu is simple with literally only three burger options to choose from, the hamburger, cheese burger and double-double. The fun comes from ordering off-menu-items like the “2×4”, a burger with two beef patties and four slices of cheese, “Animal Style”, a mustard-cooked beef […]
Although it’s not a crowded field, Inca’s stands out as the DFW area’s best Peruvian restaurant. Don’t expect anything fancy, however: This is home-style South American cuisine, served in a Spanish-speaking atmosphere with live music-also in Spanish-on many weekends. Wish they would add a few more potato dishes, aside from the classic papa rellena. Their […]

With a European comfort food concept, Independent Bar & Kitchen is a monumental addition to the Deep Ellum restaurant scene. The restaurant has a gorgeous front patio for diners and windows that open wide. The dining room has a to-die-for antique mirror and a stunning ceiling of engraved black tiles. There are 20 brass beer […]
This versatile North Dallas eatery seemingly does it all, from killer chaat – street snacks – to Desi-style pizzas topped with curry spices and paneer. The chaat is some of the area’s best, and probably the finest within Dallas city limits, but it’s the crisp-bottomed, warmly spiced pizza that has won our hearts and occasionally […]
One of the most – if not the most – highly praised Indian restaurants in Dallas, this Preston Valley eatery has been going strong since 1985. Owner Pardeep Sharma hasn’t let popularity, accolades or history diminish the quality of the food here, say diners and critics alike. Of course, there is a lunch buffet offering […]
In the former space of Green Papaya, this is the latest concept from chef Michael Huynh. It’s an elegant and inviting place with ’60s era French music setting the easy-breezy mood. Here you’ll get East Asian flavors of traditional dishes along with modern takes all infused with French flavors.
Delicious, exotic, startlingly good food is served in this stark but tasteful little suburban Japanese dining room.

This iconic Park Cities drinking den, which celebrates its 60th birthday this year, is an institution. The old-school, unpretentious atmosphere attracts folks from all walks of life, from local Highland Park day traders to a Master’s jacket-donning Scotty Scheffler to regular Joes like us who just want to belly up to the bar for a […]
Like many business that found success in Austin, this Austin standby now has branch in Dallas. Here, you’ll find the same slick, modern trappings down to the neon glow and clean decorative lines. Iron Cactus offers gussied-up Tex-Mex (lobster tacos, anyone?), which can be paired with more than 75 tequilas. Perhaps you’d like tequila in […]
Loosely steeped in the cuisines of Lombardi, Tuscany and Veneto, Isabella’s (and its lounge, Isa) does a worthy job of straddling Italian culinary authenticity with Frisco suburbia fright points (No fresh anchovies here — yet). Respectable risotto shares space with a wonderful sea bass laced with olive p
