It’s hard to miss the larger-than-life pink flamingos on the side La Comida along Beckley Avenue in Oak Cliff. La Comida makes traditional Tex-Mex classics, such as fajitas of every variety, tacos and chicken dishes. But the soul of the restaurant is in the Yucatan-influenced food, from which the owners hail. Try the cochinita pibil […]

This “Latin brasserie,” sprung from the mind of ZuZu Handmade Mexican Food chain co-founder Espartaco Borga, is a collision of homespun recipes from Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Venezuela, Colombia, Mexico and Cuba. This makes for a sexy assortment of enchiladas, salads, quesadillas, grilled marinated picanha steaks and sandwiches on fresh-baked rolls. La Duni also has a […]
La Grange is one of the newer places in Deep Ellum’s ever-growing bar scene. The relaxed vibe and the wooden interior make it a great place to grab drinks, catch up with friends, or watch one of Dallas’ up-and-coming bands. The place is new in town, but there are already regulars who are big fans […]
With Starbucks, Subway and other corporate chains taking over every corner, consumers are given more and more choices every day. But these shops that try to do a little bit of everything often end up doing nothing very well. Sometimes you want a specialist who does one thing very well, and if you’re looking for […]

The noodles at La Me, a Vietnamese spot in far northeast Dallas, go well beyond pho. Try my quang, a bowl of rice noodles with turmeric in the dough to turn them yellow. The noodles are loaded up with shrimp, peanuts and a showering of herbs. Or try a delicately flavored duck noodle soup with […]
La Neta is a swank Las Vegas import that is a restaurant, bar and lounge in Deep Ellum. The spot serves big club energy with a menu that is at times as flamboyant as the space. There’s a full range of Mexican appetizers, many with a pescatarian slant: ceviche, Baja-style oysters and tuna tartar with […]

The Webb Chapel road tortilla factory and take-out may be one of Dallas’ most compelling taquerias. The “Hot” in the restaurant’s name, however, really should be emphasized. And note, we’re not describing piquancy here, we’re talking about the ambient room temperature experienced when you walk though the gaping front door. It’s always hot in this […]
Three things give this restaurant notoriety: the outside taco window, from which customers order tacos with fresh tortillas; the bubbling Chori-Queso Fundido presented on a fajita skillet; and live music. Of course, the kitchen offers its signature grilled meats, like the pork chop, as the establishment’s name implies. Among the other menu favorites are homemade […]
The food to order here is — you guessed it — tamales, albeit they are tamales of small stature. Among the permutations of filled and steamed corn masa are pork and jalape
La Reunion is the definition of work hard, play hard. Open from 8 a.m. to 2 a.m., this Bishop Arts joint is the spot to lock in and crank out some work. They’ve got everything from nitro iced coffee to breakfast tacos and flatbreads to keep you fueled. When it’s time to burn the midnight […]
La Salsa Verde is a locally owned authentic taco spot with six locations around North Texas, most of which are pretty small spaces, but that’s no worry. The Northwest Highway location has a big dining room, but the Coit Road and Plano locations are especially close quarters. Set your takeout container on the passenger seat, […]

Any stop at one La Salsa Verde’s four locations must involve at least one of the tacos de cabeza. That could mean lengua, or tongue, an ultratender cut that looks, when plated, as if it’s been pulled. The only thing better than a taco de lengua is a taco de lengua rebanada; the only difference […]
At the helm of La Stella is Chef Luigi Iannuario, who was born and raised in Italy, and whose career has spanned everywhere from private chef to Michelin-starred restaurants. “Verace” means “authentic” in Italian, and La Stella Cucina Verace interprets “verace” as “a way of life and an appreciation for good food, good wine, and […]
