Cafe Duro

Cafe Duro is a new all-day spot from Duro Hospitality, the same group responsible for the adjacent restaurant, Sister, as well as The Charles. The interior is reminiscent of the famed restaurant Giacomo in Milan, Italy. If you’re a fan of muffalettas, you must try theirs, which is made with a fall-apart tender wagyu pastrami. […]

Cafe Gecko

Jump into the way-back machine when you visit this brewpub. It’s like a trip to the ’70s singles scene. Only the hanging ferns are missing. Instead, you’ll find hopeful hangers-on yakking into cell phones on the patio or vying for elbow room at the bar, where there’s a lavish selection of imported brews. The regulars […]

Cafe Madrid

Octopus in vinaigrette. Paella blooming with clams and shrimp and mussels. Fluffy Serrano ham with sliced lomo pork loin and rich spicy chorizo loaded with paprika. Simple spinach with pine nuts. Crisp-skinned blood sausage. Almond and garlic gazpacho. Café Madrid is Dallas’ best tapas restaurant, re-creating this Spanish gustatory ritual with keen exactitude. Savor each […]

Cafe Modern

This brisk and beautifully stark cafe, tethered to The Modern Museum of Art in Fort Worth, skillfully frames a simple menu flung with international influences in Southwestern flare. It’s a comfortable respite from the head-scratching cryptic of modern art.

Cafe Momentum

Cafe Momentum is a nonprofit venture that employs juvenile previously involved with the justice system and pays them fair, living wages to help teach them life skills, leadership and, of course, how to work in a restaurant. Because of the employees’ fair wages, any tips left behind are considered donations to the mission. As such, […]

Cafe Nubia

Cafe Nubia is a vibrant spot with a menu that blends Middle Eastern and African cuisine. Get plates of shawarma, falafel and hummus, catering to both carnivores and vegetarians. There’s a full bar, large patio (with hookah) and live music on occasion.

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 […]

Cafe Pacific

Cafe Pacific opened in 1980, but it wasn’t until 2004 when it was reviewed at the Observer. Back then the restaurant was described as a cliché and right now that claim still holds true. There’s sole amandine on the menu and the waiters are starched and wrangled with ties. The food is fine enough, but […]

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 […]

Cajun Corner Co

The Cajun-style dishes here are good, but not fantastic. There are certainly better spots to get a catfish po’boy, gumbo or fried shrimp, although we never hear any complaints with the Cajun food selections. Then there’s the Asian seafood menu. This is where Cajun Corner truly shines. Like a shrimp spaghetti served with garlic bread, […]

Campisi’s

This storied, family-owned (now into its fourth generation) restaurant and its sibling establishments have been dishing out some of Dallas’ favorite thin-crust pizza and Italian-American cuisine since 1946. Eating here is like dining with history. (The strip mall in which the original restaurant sits seems like a relic itself in stark contrast to the stylish […]

Candle Room

What will you find inside this members-only Henderson-area hangout? Pretty people pounding equally pretty (if pricey) cocktails and having a blast on the dance floor. The dress code is strictly enforced, so leave the flip-flops and football jersey at home.
