North in Dallas Observer
Showing 1585 - 1606 of 1975When The Grape closed in 2019, the heartbreak that Dallasites felt was palpable. Sister, which opened in the same space in late 2021, has filled the role of lower Greenville’s neighborly bistro admirably. With its menu of “loose Italian” and Mediterranean-inspired dishes, a visit to Sister is a delightful journey of pastas, proteins and vegetables […]
Sisu Uptown Resort is one of the few Uptown aqua lounges that does not require a club membership. Open to the general public, Sisu’s pool accommodates people looking to swim year round, and can easily shift from indoor club to outdoor party, depending on the season. A haven for Dallas’ least modest bikini-wearing socialites, Sisu’s […]
Located just north of Dallas in Richardson, Six Springs Tavern is a somewhat new hangout in a spot that has more than four decades of live music history. Now, they serve all your favorite booze and put on shows by local, regional and national music acts. Lucky for you, Six Springs can hold a big […]
Permanent exhibit examines the lifetime, legacy and assassination of John F. Kennedy, with film footage, interpretive displays and more than 400 photos.
The name Sixty Vines comes from the fact that this restaurant offers 60 wines by the glass, but this is far more than just a wine bar. It has an efficient, high-quality kitchen, with good pizza and pasta to go alongside the drinks. Sixty Vines is an interior designer’s dream restaurant. This Plano hot spot […]
Sky Blossom offers one of the best seats in all of downtown. The rooftop Vietnamese bistro and bar has a spectacular perch in the center of downtown with an open-air dining area offering a bird’s eye view the area. (The sky-high pool at The Joule across the street is a great conversation piece for sure.) […]
It’s the little details that make the cheeseburgers at Sky Rocket stand out from the pack. The sesame buns are so committed, they’ve even got sesame seeds on the bottoms. The beef patties, formed in-house, are given delightfully hard sears on the grill. No matter how many toppings you add – there aren’t many; just […]
Eater recently nominated The Slow Bone for a national award honoring bad restaurant names. (It competed in a category for groan-inducing sexual humor.) Dallas chefs were more complimentary, nominating this low-key barbecue spot as one of the city’s 10 best restaurants in an Observer survey of 75 food industry professionals. That might be exaggerated, but […]
The chain, rooted in Atlanta, is attempting to revolutionize the burger industry with its all-vegan ingredients: meats, cheeses and breads included. The Dallas location marks its first expansion into Texas state limits, and we think it’s worth a visit. If not to get a bite of the food, at least to get a taste of […]
The first Dallas outpost of a popular Colorado-based chain features some of the best shakes you’ll find in the city. Made with Haagen-Dazs ice cream (and very little mix), they are thick, creamy and will make you miss childhood pleasures all the more. The burgers-smashed, naturally-are meaty, dripping examples of Americana. For a quick service […]
Smoke Plano is a lot like the first Smoke that opened in West Dallas years ago. They have similar color schemes and logos, and when you walk through the door the smell of smoke and seared meat gives you a nice, warm hug. The two restaurants share a lot of the same menu items, too, […]
Specializing in hickory-smoked barbecue and home-style cooking, Smokey John’s Bar-B-Que is a Dallas classic.
