21 Must-Try Restaurants In Dallas, Texas
Crave DFW

There are so many things to love about Dallas, Texas and one of my favorite things is the food. There are so many choices originating from all over the world. Some of the most premiere restaurants serving gourmet food to hole-in-the-wall dives that take a little trust to even step foot in. No matter what you're in the mood for or if you're looking for a one-of-a-kind dining experience, you'll find it on this list!

1. Nick and Sam's Steakhouse.

Nick and Sam's is one of the top premiere steakhouses in Dallas, known for its mellow atmosphere and retro vibe. There is nothing bad on this menu and you'll have a dinner unlike anything else.

2. The Porch.

The Porch has some of the greatest sandwiches on toast you'll ever find. This place never disappoints and it will be a repeat restaurant for all who try. And make sure to try the "Gooey Butter Cake" for dessert and thank me later.

3. Hunky's Hamburgers.


Burgers, fries, chicken tenders, onion rings, whatever you order, you'll love. Hunky's is no doubt all-American food that everyone needs in their life.

4. Little Katana.

You want sushi? This is my go-to place every time. The sushi is so fresh and nothing ever disappoints about this restaurant. It's definitely a favorite find of mine and everyone must try.

5. Highland Park Soda Fountain.

Get taken back in time at this Highland Park dime. Really one of the most under-credited spots in Dallas that deserves every bit of recognition.

6. Emporium Pies.


Craving dessert after dinner? Emporium Pies is the place to go! The flavors change with the seasons so you always get to try new kinds of pie that are absolutely delicious.

7. Kitchen LTO.

The LTO in Kitchen LTO stands for "Limited Time Only." This restaurant gets a new chef every six months to bring a whole new type of food and menu! It's one of the coolest concepts for a restaurant that lets you try so many food options.

8. Coal Vine's.

If you're a lover of wood-fired oven pizza, then you've found the place! They're are so many similar restaurants in the area, but Coal Vine's offers a more unique dining experience.

9. Royal China.

This place looks super sketchy from the outside, but is really nice on the inside with even better food! They're known for their dumplings, which I recommend, but is a place that all Chinese food fans must try.

10. Gloria's.

Gloria's is a locally grown Mexican restaurant which began over in the Bishop Arts District. They're authentic recipe's and outstanding entrees are a must have.

11. Original Market Diner.

Get taken back to the '50s when you walk through the door of the home style cooking diner. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner, every kind of meal you can have here is going to be a good one. Also, they have some of the best coconut creme pie ever.

12. Al Biernat's.

Al Biernat's offers fine dining of both steak and seafood, both of which, are never a wrong decision. The cuisine is fantastic as well as the service.

13. Saint Rocco's New York Italian.

Saint Rocco's is new to the Trinity Grove area and already making impressions everywhere. They play music from artists like Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, have delicious entrees, and an authentic atmosphere.

14. Twisted Root.

Twisted Root offers to-die-for burgers every time and instead of order numbers, you get names of celebrities, athletes, and so on which only add to the experience.

15. Amberjax's.

Amberjax's offers an ever changing menu that is full of their fresh fish for that day. They have sauces poured over your fish that only add to the flavor. Always amazing dishes!

16. Hibiscus.

Cusine here is a lot like at Al Biernat's, just a little less fancy than Al Biernat's, but still just as delicious!

17. Bob's Steakhouse.

Many (a.k.a. my dad and brother) argue that Bob's is the best steak of your life. It's a place you'll go back to again and again and be just as impressed each time.

18. Fernando's.

Fernando's has a really cool setup to begin with. Stairs take you up to the second story restaurant (there is a store below) for one-of-a-kind Mexican dishes that will leave you impressed.

19. Maple Motor's Burgers.

This place looks a little sketchy from the outside and a little cramped on the inside but believe me when I tell you the burgers are worth it, time and a half.

20. Serious Pizza.

Located in Deep Ellum, these pizzas are probably the largest you've ever seen. New York-style pizza, Texas sized.

21. Steel Restaurant and Lounge.

With some of the best Japanese cuisine and sushi you've ever had, this restaurant is super nice!

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
