Hey there, Daddy-O: Where to Celebrate Father's Day in Dallas

If your dad is known for his refined palate and penchant for picking up the check, then we've got some deals for you. Here are some great places to take dad this Sunday to celebrate Father's day.

But, you'd better hop on those reservations quickly.

And in case you missed it, here's our list of the Best Barbecue Spots in Dallas.  If he's more of a fine dining guy, we have a local Michelin guide as well.
