Cafe 43 is adjacent to George W. Bush Presidential Center on SMU’s campus. The restaurant opened a decade ago and tickets to the center are not required to dine at the spot. You’ll only need to pay for parking across the street, which is about $7. Food plays a big role in foreign diplomacy and […]

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. […]
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 […]

In 2025, we got reacquainted with Cafe Madrid after learning of owner Donica Jimenez’s refusal to sell out to finance bros (the group that has swallowed everything else on the block). A Spaniard at heart, she opened this spot 40 years ago to bring tapas culture and community to Dallas. Small plates of cheese, Ibérico ham, albondigas […]
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 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 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 of Life is a family wellness center, centrally in downtown Dallas, off Lower Greenville.
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 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 […]
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 […]
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, […]
