Strangeways

A Yelp reviewer’s complaint about this place is exactly what makes it so endearing to its fans. He was miffed because the “non-recognized music is not able to be changed.” Exactly. One of the best craft beer bars around, Strangeways is an off-beat East Dallas neighborhood pub with a great patio. The eclectic wall art, […]

Sumo Shack

The star of the show at Sumo Shack is bao, the steamed bun that’s probably best-known in Texas as an accompaniment to Peking duck. And few foodstuffs – tacos, for instance – offer as much room for a chef to play around and get crazy for as low a price. Sumo Shack passes the basic […]

Sundown at Granada

The Granada Theater on Greenville Avenue has a younger sister next door that’s just as worthy of recognition. OK, Marcia? With a rooftop patio, a covered patio and yet another outdoor heated patio, it’s the perfect spot for gathering outdoors, while the perfectly dim indoor space holds a stage that’s a frequent spot for local […]

Swizzle

Dallas got its first proper tiki bar in 2020, smack dab in the middle of a pandemic. But, you can’t keep a good grind down. Fully vested in every aspect of island life, including a Dole whip machine and tropical drinks served in SPAM tins, this spot on Lowest Greenville serves traditional Hawaiian plates with […]

Taco Cabana

Come 2:30 a.m., droves of inebriated folks migrate to the Lower Greenville Taco Cabana to fill their beer-bloated bellies with fast-food Tex-Mex. Its ’round-the-clock hours and location conveniently within stumbling distance of several bars makes it an excellent alternative to the Bell or the Bueno, and what it lacks in Doritos Locos tacos, it makes […]

Tacos La Banqueta

It’s nothing to look at, but La Banqueta is without a doubt one of the best authentic taquer

Tacos Y Mas

A less-corporate alternative to that “other” Lowest Greenville taco spot, Tacos Y Mas looks more like a permanent food trailer than an actual restaurant. It has tacos, as one might expect from the name — all the typical fillings including chicken, pastor, fajita, lengua and even tripa are represented, available on corn or flour tortillas […]

TCBY

Sure, it’s all about frozen yogurt at TCBY, which stands, as most Dallas / Fort Worth] fans know, for The Country’s Best Yogurt. Founded in Arkansas in 1981 on the cutting edge of the nation’s fro-yo boom, the chain offers soft-serve bowls of flavors like Cake Batter and Caramel Supreme, and waffle cones crammed with […]

Tei Tei Robata

This Japanese bar on Henderson Avenue specializes in robatayaki, the technique of grilling food over hot charcoal. Chefs at the bar tend to the grill, turning out excellent skewers of meat and vegetables, as well as crisp-skinned and fork-tender whole fish. There is sashimi on offer, too, and it’s at the same high quality. Once […]

Tenison Park Golf Course

Located just a stone’s throw off Interstate 30, this expanse of tree-lined fairways, putting greens and sand traps is owned by the city of Dallas, which means the course fees are reasonable. The 18 holes are fairly compact, so no need to worry about heat stroke when walking the course in the scorching summer months. […]

Teppo Yakitori Sushi Bar

Teppo still floats to the top of the Dallas sushi outposts, now as thick as krill across our own special cowboy concrete landscape. Teppo riles with its compelling, often perverse sense of sushi doctrine: green tea-infused edamame, grilled Alaskan king crab, skewers of chicken, duck and beef tongue. Flounder carpaccio in a mango-hued splash of […]

Thai Thai Restaurant

The blue awning beckons customers to enjoy not just classic Thai dishes like the popular tom yum soup and house specialties like the spicy duck with red curry and fragrant jasmine rice, it also calls diners to order pan-Asian delights. Among them are listed gyoza dumplings and a teriyaki platter. Thai Thai is best known […]

Thunderbird Pies

Thunderbird’s specialty is Detroit-style pies, straight out of a seasoned 10-by-14-inch steel pan, with almost-burnt cheese crust edges, loaded with Wisconsin brick cheese, toppings and, always, sauce on the top. If such delicious pizza weren’t enough, Jay Jerrier, Thunderbird owner, also put a Cow Tipping Creamery inside of Thunderbird’s East Dallas location for the scrumptious […]

Serene and green with plenty of shady trees, this Lakewood park boasts an impressive array of amenities, including a playground, picnic tables, a basketball court and a softball field that both host plenty of league games, and lots of wide open spaces to play Frisbee with your dog. On those most scorching of summer days […]

Times Ten Cellars

When walking into this Lakewood winery’s front doors, you’re welcomed by the sweet smell of fermenting grapes. And, like the sweet smell, the décor in the winery’s tasting room and lounge area is homey and inviting, with the warm hues, vaulted ceilings, lots of cushy seating and candles lit throughout. But don’t be surprised to […]
