Dallas Theater Center

Once based in the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Kalita Humphreys Theater, in 2009 the DTC moved to newer, fancier digs at the Wyly Theatre at the AT&T PAC. With a repertoire that dates way back to the 1950s, they now perform a half dozen or so different plays a season, ranging from the classics (Shakespeare and […]

The Dallasite

The place has an old-school, cash-only cigarette machine by the restrooms. We were destined to love Dallasite the moment we laid eyes on that beauty. Dallasite is the diviest of dives – the ultimate leave-your-pretentiousness-at-the-door watering hole. There’s a spacious patio out front, solid bar grub, pool tables, shuffleboard and darts. The bartenders are cool […]

Damasita Izakaya

In its first incarnation, Damasita was a tavern with fried foods and bar drinks. After a change of ownership, the dining room has calmed down and become homier, and the menu focuses on traditional cooking. Grab the city’s best gimbap to go – the two-inch-wide rolls, which resemble extra-large maki sushi but with added vegetables, […]

DanSungSa

People don’t really go to DanSungSa before 8 p.m. The scene picks up late at this classic Korean joint, which on Thursdays and Fridays closes just before sunrise the next day. Grab a karaoke room or a booth in the bar, which have big, dark privacy shields covered in soju advertisements. If the ads inspire […]

Darkoo’s Chicken Shack

Darkoo’s Chicken Shack is the latest concept (and replacement, if you will, of Khao Noodle Shop) from Donny Sirisavath. Here he partnered Jimmy Niwa of Niwa Japanese BBQ and they serve Asian-style fried chicken. Like a Khao, the menu here is tight. There are four chicken options on Darkoo’s menu along with 11 sides and five […]
