- AAlexvipDallas - Fort Worth •2 reviews5.0Dined todayAmazing anniversary dinner. Couldn’t have asked for a better meal or experience. Steve went above and beyond to make our night special. Will definitely be back soon.More infoDakota’s Steakhouse- Downtown DallasPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Downtown•4.9
- AAnthonyDallas - Fort Worth •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoAs a New Yorker, I don’t usually expect much from pizza outside of home, but this restaurant blew me away. The pizza was absolutely delicious—flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The antipasta was fresh and authentic, and the desserts were a delightful way to end the meal. Special mention goes to Giorgio Carlucci, whose service was exceptional. His deep knowledge of the home-style Italian cuisine and spot-on recommendations for my date made the experience even more memorable. If you’re looking for an authentic Italian dining experience, this place is a must-visitMore info400 GradiPrice: Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.4

- DDianevipDallas - Fort Worth •16 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoFabulous Food and the best service from every staff member. The only downside, was they seated next to us a family group with 3 young children who were permitted to move around their table (and ours) with lots of loud squeals, crying and little intervention from the adults. Very disappointing. Fine for at home behavior but not in fine dining atmosphere.More infoMonarchPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• East Dallas•4.7

Dallas’s 9 Favorite Bars
Maybe it’s Dallas’s long, hot summers, or perhaps it’s because residents love nothing more than to go out for dinner and drinks, but the city and its surrounding areas overflow with enticing watering holes. Dallas’s artisanal distilleries are winning awards and its craft beer scene is one of Texas’s best.

10 Top Burgers in Dallas to Add to Your Bucket List
It’s no secret that the heart of Dallas is its restaurants. From the strip mall hidden gems of Frisco to the fine-dining spots in the Park Cities to the endless options on Beltline, this food-loving city only continues to expand its repertoire. So it’s no surprise that Dallas is home to some truly delicious burgers, where the city’s most creative chefs have all kinds of takes on the American classic — a jerk burger, a falafel burger, and a rattlesnake burger, to name a few. One upscale eatery slings a cheeseburger basket fit for kids (you’ll love the side of tater tots), but make no mistake — it appeals to the most sophisticated palates. A couple of restaurants have entire burger menus. Whether you like your burgers traditional with a slice of tomato and a little ketchup, or you’re of a “the-fancier-the-better” mindset, you’ll find your soulmate burger on this top ten list.
Discover Downtown
The city that gave us the frozen margarita machine, Dallas is a thriving metropolis in north-central Texas that's constantly evolving. Are you craving an award-winning brew to wash down your hand-tossed pizza? Are you in the mood for fresh seafood served with creative sides? Are you up for trying some lobster macaroni and cheese or pastry puffs dripping with truffle oil? You'll find all of this in downtown Dallas along with upscale steakhouses, family restaurants with kid-friendly menus, quaint bistros and cafes, and even rolling food trucks and a few speakeasy-style bars! Of course, you can't spend any time in downtown Dallas and not try some of city's iconic dishes; these include lobster dumplings, brisket tacos, "corny dogs," and anything barbecued or fried.
