It’s fitting that a city as geographically large as Dallas has a market and eatery that claims a whole large continent as its inspiration; their “About Us” blurb states on their website states, “As a market, we operate within the African Food and Grocery space, offering produce and the best-branded products from across the African […]

Au Troisieme, or AT Bistro, is neighborhood bistro in the heart of University Park (Preston Center). The concept is new American cuisine with a global influence – actually not French. There are a few French dishes on the menu (like fish Provencal), but then there’s also a kimchi Reuben. Start with the tuna and avocado appetizer […]

Atlas opened in 2021 in the Bishop Arts District with a global cocktail menu. The vibe here is come-one-come-all. Pretty aperol spritzes stand tall alongside bottles of Lone Stars on the bar. It’s a fun mix of locals, tourists and first dates. Notice a bookshelf at the back of the bar and ask yourself if […]
In sorry-not-sorry news, we’re spilling the beans on hard-to-find Atwater Alley: Go past the door of Henry’s Majestic, toward the alley, then hang a right after the sidewalk ends and look for the door with an upside-down A over a right-side-up A. Once inside, Atwater doesn’t have QR codes or paper for menus, just tell […]
Colds and flu viruses monopolize the short fall and winter seasons. However, snow-cone stands, like this Oak Cliff operation, have a hold on the extensive inferno under which Dallasites roast most of the year. This summer chiller is a neighborhood institution and has been in business for more than four decades. It’s only open from […]
This neighborhood brewpub has a big open tap room with tables and a window bar in addition to the main bar facing the taps with a TV overhead. It has a relaxed neighborhood vibe; sorry no green and pink Instagram walls with a bright neon message. Autonomous offers more than 20 cold pints from a […]

It is a return to elegance – Belle Epoque with a modern twist. A big influence was the graciously scaled libraries of the great houses of Europe. These libraries were often storehouses of not only great literature but also wonderful objects d’art which often served as the background for wonderful floral decorations and the setting […]
Owner Jack Ekhtiar’s small restaurant is a place where hip meets classic. Dark wood frames live jazz. Rustic Mediterranean fare, predominately Northern and Southern Italian, is presented elegantly. Among the examples are farfalle carbonara, a 6-ounce Brazilian lobster tail over spinach linguini alfredo and shrimp as well as carpaccio Avanti with white truffle oil. On […]
The Avila family continues to serve classic Tex-Mex dishes to legions of rabid fans. They’ve been doing so since 1985 with tweaked family recipes of enchiladas, muchas enchiladas and chile relleno, which is a house specialty. Among the other signature dishes are the Anna Maria Plate (one soft cheese taco, one cheese enchilada and one […]
For more than 20 years, this neighborhood spot has been shelling out cheap mollusks with even cheaper brewskis. Much of the food comes in fried renditions, including oysters. However, there are many preparations offered, some unusual for shuck shack – stringed lights, coolers and picnic tables included – such as a ceviche and a trio […]
Persistent chatter and clanking silverware signals that you’ve found one of Uptown’s more promising dining spots in Baboush. Hummus and babaganoush are safe plays, served with plenty of warm pita for dipping, but the entire menu warrants attention. Shrimp and chicken kebabs and other street plates deliver bites that push conventional Moroccan cooking while staying […]

A half slab at this barbecue joint means seven baby back ribs kissed with smoke, spiced with pepper and just-right tender: The meat doesn’t fall off the bone, but pulls off with the gentlest of tugs. It just narrowly beats out the boudin plate as our favorite order, but the boudin (here spelled boudain) is […]
This Snider Plaza shop is a mainstay of the chic mom set. Owner Carrie Barnard originally set out to open a little shop filled with things she couldn’t find in town for her own children. Cut to present day and she has added an adjoining sister store, miniME, aimed at older kids and a thriving […]
Years ago, Baby Dolls Saloon moved locations and began boasting “The Legend Lives On.” The 37-year-old institution backs up the claim with a roster of more than 200 dancers on any given night. The grand staircase opens onto a bar that sits in the center of the club. The main stage is enormous, and off […]
The world would be all the better if it were filled with more trompo taco fans. To make a great trompo taco, the vertical spit has to spin, but at many places business isn’t steady enough to keep the contraption in motion. Not so at Bachman Tacos and Grill, where tacos are a necessary add […]
