In most places, you order a whole fish and it slumbers on the plate, maybe in a bath of citrus, scallions, spices, peppers and some fermented fluid to race it up. At Qu

Showing 1651 - 1672 of 2324Chef Toby Archibald says restaurants like his Quarter Acre are plentiful in his native New Zealand, but this spot on Greenville Avenue in the former Rapscallion space is at the vanguard of some of Dallas’ most creative cooking. On its face, the cuisine may come off as pretentious, but a closer look reveals a playful […]
This two-story Uptown Crescent-City-themed bar shares its wrought iron and plant-filled patio (as well as some of its menu items) with its next-door neighbor and sister establishment, Bread Winners. The bar manager says there’s even one popular snack that’s not on the menu, but the bar’s regulars know to ask for the green chili mac […]
A carry-out/delivery business borne out of founders Paul Oltmann and Steve Daroche’s disappointment in delivery services, Quesa-D-Ya’s takes a cutesy name and brings customers fresh, cooked-to-order Tex-Mex with an emphasis on — what else? — quesadillas. Among the large-portion hits here are the best-selling Smokey Mountain D-Ya (pulled pork or chicken with barbecue rice, bacon, […]
John Tesar’s upscale Design District cocktail lounge features bottle service and craft cocktails in a chic atmosphere.
The Rabbit Hole Bar and Grill is newer place in Old East Dallas that fits the neighborhood like a good worn glove. The bar food is far above average and the outdoor courtyard had a dog run. It’s the best of all of us. Be sure to tried the hand cut and panko-crusted fried mozzarella […]
One of the Dallas area’s newest churrascarias-where “gauchos” tote around skewers of roasted, simply seasoned meat and you dine until you explode-bears more than a passing resemblance to Texas de Brazil, which popularized the Brazilian steakhouse concept in the metroplex. The cuts of meat and even the items in the expansive salad bar are similar, […]
The two-story Ramble Room is an ode to classic American dishes located in Snider Plaza. The culinary director and partner chef is Stan Rodrigues, whose CV includes Danny Meyer’s Union Square Hospitality Group in New York and, locally, Nick and Sam’s, Sixty Vines, Whiskey Cake and Neighborhood Services. The Ramble Room’s menu has house-made pastas, […]
Like walking into an 80s night club, Randy’s Cherries hasn’t really changed in decades. Laser lights and fog machines still permeate the gay bar’s large interior. Shiny surfaces, glossy concrete floors and pool tables attract patrons looking for a place to drink, dance and mingle. Located just on the edge of Uptown, the gay bar’s […]
The famous Abacus chef turns his attention to more common fare, such as catfish and fried chicken-which is kind of like asking an accomplished concert violinist to play a fiddle tune. When he pulls it off, though, results are thoroughly satisfying. Polished service and a standout setting.
When you do pull over, you’ll discover Raul’s Corral, a Tex-Mex restaurant that also claims to serve steaks. That giant longhorn out front isn’t actually in the Raul’s parking lot. It stands in front of the ghost town next door. It looks like something straight out of an old Six Flags. Walking inside Raul’s is […]
Rayo is the final stop before walking into the State Fair, or the first stop after. We don’t offer that as a warning, rather an emergency lever in case you get dragged to the fairgrounds one day against your will; tell ’em you’ll meet ’em outside. Rayo is a great bar with stellar bar food. […]
We look at it as the poor man’s Pappadeaux, with humbler aspirations and much humbler prices. Funny thing is, the more we go there, the more we like it; it’s gotten to the point where we’d rather sit at a tin-topped table at Razzoo’s than wait in line at Pappadeaux. The blackened tilapia fillet, for […]
