Finally, the end to all my eating madness in Dallas! My past few articles have been about my chronicles in the Dallas eating scene over the course of a year and a half. I've had amazing soirees and others that barely should be mentioned. I hope you have enjoyed these escapades and now have some new dinner suggestions. Bon appetit!
41. Anderson's Barbecue
This is a fun local hangout close to the medical district. This doesn’t look like much from the outside, but it’s a nice, homey place that has decent BBQ.
42. Wolfgang Puck (New American)
Was really wanting this to be a great experience but wasn’t impressed. The only aspect I really liked was the view.43. Grace (New American)
44. Pink Magnolia (Southern Cooking)
This was a fun little dive. Definitely some southern cooking, so you’re not going to be watching your weight on this one, but had some good flavors.
45. Stirr (American)
Read about this one, but was not impressed at all. The only thing that was good was the drink. The appetizer looked great, but felt like it had some type of paste in it. I couldn’t even finish my scallops and that’s pretty bad for a midwestern boy.
46. Emporium Pies
This is definitely a place to drop by. I went here after going to Stirr, which was definitely needed. I got a piece of pie and some coffee. It was so good that I got a second piece for breakfast the next morning (and I don’t eat much for breakfast, so reallllllly good). Also, they have impressive brochures (you’ll understand when you see them).
47. Kitchen LTO (New American)
This restaurant idea presents a cool idea: switching out chefs every 6 months so that the customer gets a new flavor frequently. Really creative idea and worth trying.
48. Dallas Grilled Cheese Co. (Sandwich)
I heard about this from a fellow writer and wanted to check it out. Great lunch spot and definitely get a milkshake.
49. Dallas Fish Market (Seafood)
This was downtown Dallas and was a mediocre spot. The soup was wonderful, but the fish was mildly pleasant. You would think a seafood restaurant would perfectly prepare fish, but wasn’t the case here.
50. Mansion on Turtle Creek (American Fine Dining)
This was the quintessential Dallas dinner. The multicourse meal was perfectly done with wonderfully paired wines and great service. This is definitely worth the trip for a special occasion, as it is a little costly.
