What seems like a weird spin on the old Mario Bros. video game is actually a Bangladesh-inspired pizza shop in Plano. Try the Garlic Ghee Mushroom Bianca pizza for some more muted South Asian flavors. The New York-style pizza comes with a base of creamy white sauce, made of blended alfredo and mozzarella. The pie […]
North in Dallas Observer
Showing 1541 - 1562 of 1981The locally-owned soul food kitchen was featured on HBO’s Hard Knocks, when a Dallas Cowboy revealed it as his favorite restaurant. Here, the sides are the star of the show. Don’t pass on the thick and creamy macaroni and cheese or the sweet yams. Mashed potatoes are blessed with a liberal amount of dark brown […]
Richardson has its share of Asian cuisine, but SaWaDiKa Thai Zone stands out for its peppy atmosphere and admirable blend of the traditional and the creative. Basic dishes such as pad Thai and red curry are plated beautifully and taste just as good. Tiger Cry brisket is some of the most well-seasoned in the area. […]
The specialty here is Mediterranean-style grilled seafood, offered in a weekday lunch buffet, but the real action at Sayyad is in the evenings, when grilled fish and seafood kebabs can take center stage. The seafood specialties here include singari fish casserole, in which a whole fish is split, butterflied and marinated, then topped with an […]
A Dallas mainstay and culinary destination for decades, Scardello stands out from other cheese shops with owner/cheese master Rich Rogers’ dedication to American cheeses and Texas dairies and creameries–with some European farmstead cheese thrown in for good measure. Here you won’t find the confusing, over-stimulating selections touted as tres chic by area gourmet supermarkets and […]
Sclafani’s has a full menu of breakfast and lunch sandwiches in addition to bagels and schmears. All the sandwiches have New York themes. The Park Avenue comes with smoked salmon, choice of schmear, tomato, onion and capers. The Sinatra comes with just egg and cheese. The bagels at Scalfani’s have a little snap from the […]
One thing is for certain, there’s nothing like Scotch and Sausage anywhere else in Oak Lawn. Actually, there’s nothing like this place in all of Dallas. Picture a hipster beer garden filled with beer (of course) and then sausages made from a whole zoo’s worth of animals. There are french fries, too, but these aren’t […]
Tucked away on the second floor (hence the name) and more, shall we say serene, than the Westin’s boisterous Oceanaire, this Scotch lounge/modern international restaurant was still feeling around for sure footing during review visits. But there’s quite a bit of promise, given chef J. Chastain’s penchant for solid technique. Ingredients are fresh, slices of […]
Seoul Garden offers some of the Dallas area’s best Korean barbecue, in part because red-hot coals fire the grills at every table instead of gas. Order simple cuts instead of marinated ones to get the most flavor from this rustic heat source. Open for nearly 20 years now, this restaurant caters to a mostly Korean […]
This place is called what it’s called for a reason. Few things can kill a drunken craving and sop up exorbitant amounts of alcohol as well as a notoriously monstrous Serious Pizza slice. Open until 3 a.m. on the weekends, the lively after-hours atmosphere, HD televisions and interesting people-watching are exactly the stimulation needed for […]
