Truth & Alibi

This Deep Ellum speakeasy is accessed through a faux candy storefront. You’ll have to check their Facebook page for the weekly password to get in. The lounge at Truth and Alibi is posh with deep couches and chairs, and if want to make sure if you get a table, make reservations. DJs play a mix […]

Tupinamba Cafe

Tupinamba is the “Everybody Loves Raymond” of Dallas Mexican restaurants – it’s not bad, and if it’s convenient, you’re up for it, but you wouldn’t go too far out of your way to check it out. To say the décor is reminiscent of a hotel restaurant would be a gross understatement; the place looks exactly […]

TUPPS Brewery

TUPPS beer is handcrafted in McKinney, Texas and opening early 2015. Hours: Every Sat: 11 – 5pm

Turan Uyghur Kitchen

As one of the Dallas area’s only Uyghur restaurants, Turan Uyghur Kitchen educates as well as nourishes. Uyghur cuisine prominently features roasted mutton and beef, rice dishes and kebabs. Since the majority of Uyghurs are Muslim, the food is predominantly halal. Dishes like the big plate chicken are simply marvelous, and a small portion was […]

Twilite Lounge

As you walk down Elm Street in Deep Ellum, you’ll pass a heavy black door and red shaded windows. This is the Twilite Lounge, and it is known for its incredible, seasoned bar staff who know their way around a good cocktail. Known also for its frequent free live shows that might get a little […]

Twin Peaks

Breastaurants seem to be popping up everywhere these days. Hooters might be the mother of all the establishments in this category, but Addison-based Twin Peaks is the local heavyweight. Buxom waitresses in tight-fitting uniforms with exposed midriffs serve up grub from a large menu that includes crowd- (or at least man-) pleasing items like the […]

Twisted Root Burger Co.

Jason Boso’s burger empire was built on hard work. An appearance on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives didn’t hurt things either. Come here for well-done grease bombs in a space that oozes personality. Customers get special names to mark their orders (I was Jesse James once) and can serve themselves pickle slices from plastic tubs while […]

Two Corks and a Bottle

The thing that sets Two Corks and a Bottle apart from other wine bars in Dallas is the location from where the wine is fermented and bottled. At Two Corks, it’s all done right there in the Uptown shop. It only sells house-made wines, which sounds like a turn-off; people tend to put their trust […]

TX Tea Room

“TX TEA ROOM is a brand new bar, restaurant, and live music venue in Deep Ellum with a very familiar feel. Come by and enjoy cold drinks, darts, hot dogs, live music, pool tables, and the old Deep Ellum vibes that’s been missing from the neighborhood. For those that remember July Alley, The Prophet Bar, […]

Uchi

The Austin import, which also has locations in Houston and Denver, is almost daunting in its reputation for extremely expensive high-end Japanese cooking. But Uchi’s friendly service keeps the experience grounded, and its sushi bar does phenomenal work. Anything raw is bound to be good, especially seafood ordered off the list of daily specials. We’re […]

Uchiko

Uchiko is the latest gem in James Beard award winner Tyson Cole’s culinary crown, a take on the Uchi concept, imbued with flame-kissed excellence. While Uchiko’s menu offers plenty of nigiri, sashimi and makimono that wouldn’t feel out of place on Uchi’s table, the key differences come “from the hearth”, the wood grill which is key […]

Uncle Calvin’s Coffee House

Nothing says good times quite like live acoustic music in a smoke-and-alcohol-free environment that”s named after Protestant reformer John Calvin and happens to be located in a church (Northpark Presbyterian Church, specifically). But if you swing that way, get ready to punch your ticket.
