Paradiso in the Bishop Arts District recently transformed their large courtyard space that runs along Bishop Avenue into a swank mermaid den with a raw bar and champagne room.
Dallas has a fickle relationship with tubed meat.

Amor Y Queso in Deep Ellum was broken into early Tuesday morning. Founder Sarah Carlock says nearby security footage shows a person breaking the glass door and “dipping right in.”
Many of these artists had tagged @Whataburger in the past, inspiring the company to move forward with the project. Whataburger is getting in the art business.
Being fully transparent, we’re quite partial to the angelic-like pastries from chef Andrea Meyer at Bisous Bisous. Over the years, we’ve swooned over their layers of butter, flour, sugar and salt.
Saturday is National Piña Colada Day and that got us a tad emotional considering we don’t imbibe in these timeless frozen cocktails as often as we should.
Kathleen Morgan first started selling her from-scratch frozen custards at the Galveston Farmers Market. Cold dessert at a farmers market might seem like a stretch
It’s no longer a question of “if,” rather “by how much.” The local bar and restaurant scene is back with margarita machines swirling at helicopter speed trying to keep up. Our cup quite literally runneth over.
We’re looking for new voices to tell stories about the vibrant food and beverage scene in North Texas. Not only are new restaurants opening at warp speed,
DFW Restaurant Week will be back in fine form this summer, which is great and not just because a lot of great restaurants offer good deals, but also it’s a huge fundraising campaign for the North Texas Food Bank (NTFB) and Lena Pope,
Beating trolls at their own game was never the plan for Jay Jerrier. It just sort of fell into him. Jerrier opened Cane Rosso in Deep Ellum in 2011, bidding adieu a stuffy corporate career. His pizza empire started as a trailer in a parking lot and it’s since grown to
Dallas-born and raised Lucky’s Hot Chicken is planning five new restaurants in North Texas over the next year. The Nashville-inspired culinary concept opened its flagship location on Gaston Avenue in the fall of 2020 in the iconic mid-century building where local restaurateur Norman Brinker opened his first concept. They opened their second restaurant in Highland Park at 6309 Hillcrest Ave in April.
Wild About Harry’s has announced that after 25 years in the hot dog and custard business, they’re closing their doors. The last day of business will be this Sunday, July 4th — going out with a bang, if you will.

A new restaurant has opened where Mudsmith was previously on Lowest Greenville Avenue. This space, Carte Blanche, is a two-for-one number. There are two chefs — husband and wife — and by day chef Amy La Rue sells pastries and in the evening,
What a fantastic time to be an onion farmer. Restaurants are opening at an auctioneer-calling pace. We’ll gladly take this blustering pace to what we were writing about a year ago at this time. We’ve compiled a list of recent openings, with links to any first looks we
After limping through lagging sales the past few years, Houston-based Luby’s Inc. announced last fall that board members had voted to liquidate and dissolve all of the company’s business,
Pinpoint Burger Bar recently opened on Lemmon Avenue near Mia’s Tex Mex. It’s a flash of new in an otherwise drab-ish strip of stores. As its name implies, the focus is burgers, some of which are locally appointed, like the Red Coat which is British-inspired.
The New York Times reported that millions in funding for minority-owned restaurants was recently halted because of a lawsuit filed by the owners of The Lost Cajun in Keller.
