Once based in the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Kalita Humphreys Theater, in 2009 the DTC moved to newer, fancier digs at the Wyly Theatre at the AT&T PAC. With a repertoire that dates way back to the 1950s, they now perform a half dozen or so different plays a season, ranging from the classics (Shakespeare and […]

Dallasite is the diviest of dives – the ultimate leave-your-pretentiousness-at-the-door watering hole. There’s a spacious patio out front, solid bar grub, pool tables, shuffleboard and darts. The bartenders are cool […]
In its first incarnation, Damasita was a tavern with fried foods and bar drinks. After a change of ownership, the dining room has calmed down and become homier, and the menu focuses on traditional cooking. Grab the city’s best gimbap to go – the two-inch-wide rolls, which resemble extra-large maki sushi but with added vegetables, […]
