Inhabiting a 1940s-era house (hence, hacienda) on Henderson, this restaurant brings the Tex-Mex and homey feeling to a crowded, high-energy entertainment district. It’s an extremely colorful and frenetic home, one filled with Mexican kitsch, burritos, enchiladas, tacos and fajitas during lunch and dinner. The chicken enchiladas with pepperjack cheese and sour cream tomatillo salsa, chile […]

The family water park offers slides, a continuous river and other water-related rides and attractions.
Hector’s on Henderson is anti-Dallas dining; an unconscious thumbed nose at restaurants that often crumble under the strain of all that is chic, hip, edgy and hyper-sophisticated. Hector’s takes bedrock grub with a Southern drawl– meat loaf, Cobb salad–and invigorates them with imagination and deft treatments. The dining room is spare and uncluttered by high-concept, […]

The Heights occupies the spot that once housed the beloved Legal Grounds coffee and breakfast destination. But Chef Karin Porter has transitioned the place nicely, serving solid and tasty American and Southern fare like potroast and chicken pot pie. Breakfast is hearty, too–retaining one holdover from Legal Grounds: their much loved granola pancakes.
What an expressive name is Hello Dumpling. It’s short, sweet and friendly, and it holds out the promise of delicious dumplings. There’s only one problem with the name: This restaurant’s noodles are even better. Hello Dumpling is serving a wide variety of northern Chinese home cooking and market foods: grilled skewers of meat, beef noodle […]
Because the restaurant world was out of gimmicks, now there are restaurants based on the paleo diet. The latest is HG Sply Co., which capitalizes on another trend – dropping letters from restaurant names like teenagers’ texts. The massive dinning room is wrapped in brick and warm wood, and accented by small white subway tile […]
Good thing the food’s so delicious at Hibiscus, since the portions stretch the limits of the word gargantuan. A baked crab dip app at this New American eatery could easily feed four, while the prime strip “brick” weighs in at an impressive 18 ounces. But the cooking isn’t nearly as ham-handed as the brutish sizing […]

HIDE opened in Deep Ellum in 2017 and became a fast and true standard. Alas, during the pandemic, it closed. But, great news, it resurfaced in the bustling (but not busting) Lower Greenville area late last year. Luckily it’s back to its old self as if it never missed a beat. HIDE is another one of […]
The Hideaway is a dive bar with a touch of live-wire spirit. From karaoke to college football, it goes hard and might not be the best place for lightweights. Daily food and drink specials keep things affordable, but the regular menu isn’t by any means obscenely priced either. Play pool or sign up for karaoke, […]
It’s difficult for any place to get any more popular than being christened “America’s Cafeteria” by The New York Times. Since first opening in 1925 under the ownership of Sallie “Mother” Goodman and her son Dewey, Highland Park expanded to several locations and became destination dining for an entire nation before downsizing to one family-owned […]
