Bajeko Sekuwa

Bajeko Sekuwa has locations in Nepal, where the chain has become famous for its grilled meats, momo dumplings and local comfort foods. Irving’s location, is the second to debut outside Nepal.

Bombay Chowpatty

One of Irving’s top places for chaat is Bombay Chowpatty, named after a beach lined with street food vendors. The dining room showcases some of that airy atmosphere, with seats arranged food-hall style around a central open kitchen and many of the walls plastered with beach photos and Bollywood posters. Pav bhaji is a superb […]

Cafe on the Green

One of five restaurants at the tony Four Seasons in Las Colinas, Cafe on the Green looks out onto the front nine of the Four Seasons Las Colinas’ award-winning golf course. As one might expect from a high-end hotel restaurant, it plays host to breakfast, brunch and lunch buffets galore, with everything from made-to-order omelets […]

Cafemandu Flavors of Nepal

Of Irving’s top Nepalese restaurants, Cafemandu boasts the biggest and deepest list of momos, the country’s beloved pleated dumplings. Cafemandu even has dessert momos, but it’s probably best to start with the classic steamed variety to admire the thin, nearly translucent dough around the plump filling then work your way through spicy chili momos covered […]

Cavalli Pizza

Cavalli was the Dallas area’s first pizzeria to become VPN certified, and while they’ve since let that award go, they’ve recently added an APN certification, which focuses on the pizzailoi directly. Either way, you’re likely to get a solid pie in both their Irving and McKinney locations.

Cielito Mexican Flavors

Cielito Mexican Flavors is based on the co-owners family recipes from Puebla, Mexico. However the food, and space, has a mix of traditional and modern qualities.

Cool River Cafe

Las Colinas is known as a part of town where business happens. Top executives from all over the country travel to this section of North Irving to buy, sell, merge and do all sorts of other businessy things. And when the day is done, many of these tycoons can be found seated at the richly […]

Desi District

Desi District was already a Las Colinas gem, but has expanded into five locations across Dallas suburbs. Sometimes, expansion means a slip in what we used to love, but the vegetable bhajis, dosas and chaat at Desi District are just as good as ever. The restaurant flourishes from a large industrial-chic dining room with a […]

Edoko Omakase

Chef Keunsik Lee, a Nobu veteran, presides over a thoughtful menu at this hidden spot in Irving. Some of the sushi items are traditional, but others reflect his Korean heritage or his decades of living in Texas, like the incorporation of wasabi into salsa verde, or the choice to top a spicy tuna roll with […]

Everest Restaurant

If you’re looking for an inexpensive meal that feels like an event, Everest Restaurant may be just what you seek. The kitchen focuses on Nepali cooking, but branches out into Indian and Chinese fare as well. A visit isn’t complete without an order of the goat momo, savory dumplings that burst with flavor, and which […]

Fortune House

The best xiao long bao (soup dumplings) in the area are the stars at Fortune House, a Shanghainese mainstay on the north side of Irving. But don’t miss the fried buns, either; they’re steamed and fried, the crispy bottom and moist top producing two different colors and textures. Aside from buns, dumplings and the occasional […]

Hanasho Japanese Restaurant

Hanasho is located in a slightly dingy Irving strip mall, but don’t let that dissuade you. Sushi and sashimi are impeccably fresh, and certain varieties can be had during happy hour for just a buck. Hamachi collar and delectably fatty toro are standouts. Besides the requisite raw fish, this traditional sushi joint also offers other […]
