California mini-chain Crimson Coward has four locations in the Golden State, but the spot on Preston Road in Frisco is their first foray into Texas. At Crimson Coward, the chicken and fried sides are all made to order; there are no warming lamps or trays, so everything we ordered was piping hot and fresh. The […]
Cristina Mendez and John Pham opened Cris and John in 2017 in a North Dallas strip mall – bookended by a 7-Eleven and a laundromat – and have stood out with a creative blend of Vietnamese and Mexican street fare. The center of Cris and John’s menu is the phoritto, which piles all the goodness of […]

Crown Block sits atop Reunion Tower, although it doesn’t spin as previous restaurants famously did. This is a great special occasion spot with big steaks and fine seafood. They also serve Sunday brunch.

Excellent steaks, good sides, moderate prices, cool hunting-lodge environs–this place is well worth the 20-minute drive from downtown Dallas on Interstate 30. Just a stone’s throw from the eastern shore of Lake Ray Hubbard, Culpepper has successfully transformed itself–with massive renovations–from schlocky Western-themed steak joint to white-tablecloth fine dining establishment. They serve “Premium Gold Angus” […]

As they inform their customers on the site: “During the roasting process, […]

This small family chain may have closed a few locations over the years, but it’s not because of their food. Cuquita’s serves simple Tex-Mex that may hit the cheese a little hard, but it doesn’t leave you feeling like you need medical support to get home. And don’t forget the handmade tortillas. They’re some of […]
