Condiment bars allow customers to mix and match at will, usually creating a more pleasant dining experience. That’s what Gazeebo Burgers is going for, meaning service is at a minimum. It pretty much ends after ordering the signature half-pound Gazeebo, an Old Fashioned Cheeseburger or the Gobbler with mushrooms and Swiss cheese turkey burger. The […]
Genki is Japanese for energy and vigor. It is those qualities that the restaurant’s conveyor-belt sushi presentation puts to the test. It’s easy to stare wide-eyed at the yellow, blue and red-rimmed plates and want nothing more than to attempt to clear the belt. Pace yourself. There are more than enough volcano rolls to go […]

The very best dish at Genroku Sushi, a strip mall find in Richardson, isn’t sushi. The basil chicken, served in the wok in which it’s cooked, is a fabulous exposition of fresh basil, chopped ginger, star anise and soy sauce. Like the sea clam soup and scallion beef, the chicken dish references the restaurant’s Taiwanese […]

This Ginger Man location in an old two-story house really takes the “public house” origins of the word seriously. The pub offers up picnic style seating in the beer garden out back, an upstairs lounge with its own bar, and a balcony with still more picnic tables under a covered patio. This Ginger Man has […]
Ginger’s is a subterranean cocktail lounge in the historic East Quarter. It opened as the speakeasy attached to the Sushi | Bar, but over time it has gained traction as its own entity. It’s possibly one of the only glamorous bars in Dallas that encourages you to “come as you are” rather than enforcing a strict […]
If you don’t want to head out to the suburbs to get your German fix, a newcomer to the Knox-Henderson neighborhood offers a taste of Bavaria. Glass Boot Biergarten is a place to drink beer, first and foremost. They have large mugs and boot-shaped glasses that they’ll fill with a small selection of German beers, […]
While owner Gloria Rubio is Salvadoran, she certainly knows she’s in the Lone Star State and knows that most of us have a special place in our stomachs for Mexican and Tex-Mex dishes. That’s why the menu here is split pretty much down the middle between the foods of her Central American homeland and local […]

No, Alton Brown is not in the kitchen dispensing his food-science knowledge with every menu item. This casual eatery, established in 1986 and with three Texas locations, isn’t out to edify its customers. Rather, its mission is to woo patrons into ease and comfort. The menu reads like a roster of Lone Star and Southern […]
