Something about being in a hidden, little tucked away, secret club house makes me happy. That is just what Bodega Wine Bar is. Behind a vacant liquor store, you find this place and are taken back to a dark, cool, smooth music joint. It is almost like…More »

I like deviled eggs, I like shrimp and grits, I like a lot of red wine and I like mac n' cheese. Can you find all this in one place? Yes, in one Glorious place!
You see, I have been lucky enough to visit both locations. But I have to say after…More »
Well....I just.....I just don't know. Not only is the place very cramped, it's filled with geezers. Highland Park geezers. Not to say that is a bad thing. It is just strange to be surrounded by your grandparents when you think you are going out to a…More »

Sultry singing voices being sung by a buxom lounge singer echo throughout this interesting jazz joint. Obscurely located downtown on Commerce street, some may not even know it exists, which can be a good and bad thing.
I want to Yelp about it to…More »
While others may disagree with my tastebuds - I find Green Papaya to me be more than satisfying and abundant with taste and size. Though reading through other reviews - it seems as though, the restaurant doesn't boast an authentic array of Vietnamese…More »
I will preface this review by saying, this review is extremely long overdue. Considering that I have… Read more »
First I would like to note that an Asian restaurant formerly occupied this awesomely located spot. Just a funny thought. I wonder if it is because the kitchen is specifically built for Asian cooking or it just seems like an Asian property exclusive…More »

Thank Bacchus for the wine therapist! It is such a great escape after a long day with your intolerant work colleagues, intolerant screaming children, intolerant crazy drivers or just those days where you could be capable of punching someone in the…More »
Not to toot my horn here, but I am a bad-ass girlfriend that was cool enough to get the couples cooking class as a present for my boyfriend. What a great purchase well worth the price!
I took the beau for a cooking class was focused on indoor grilling…More »
What can I say? This place is awesome for a quick dinner with a pre-purchased bottle of wine.
It is small lacking space for on-the-go patrons wanting to order a take-out pizza. Speaking of pizza. Their pizza is very delightful. Every one of them.…More »
I have always been enticed by Villa-O's ambiance. It's open, breezy, laid-back atmosphere evoking an actually Tuscan villa in the middle of flat Dallas. I tried Villa-O for the first time tonight and just as I expected the ambiance was the aspect…More »
On the circumference of the North Park courtyard, Cibus is a lovely Italian restaurant that serves as a nice romantic haven that lets you escape from the frenzied frequencers of the mall.
I will start with the prices. They are not steep but come to…More »

What a refreshing take on a throwback to Miami via 1973. Everything from old-school palm tree wall paper to huge globe light treatments - they have got the design down to a T. The beautiful (maybe Allison V. Smith) photograph prints on the wall…More »

You'd think the carpeted restaurant would throw me for a negative loop, but no. Yes, it is odd that a restaurant of this calibur would have somewhat dingy carpet - however I think that is just one of the many factors that make Hector's so special.…More »
A discreet, subtle find.This hidden hotel-turned-restaurant lies amongst the funky finds on Elm street. You walk in and are immediately put at ease by the muted colors, low seating, soothing music (if any at all), angular lines, and exposed brick…More »
What a delight! When I walked in it was not at all what I expected. Hearing the highly rated reviews, made me think of a shi-shi atmosphere. The clientele might be shi-shi, but the interior and customer service is not however.
The interior is…More »

What a wonderful asset to Dallas - a true unique cornerstone in the Dallas Arts District. The design is beyond my vernacular to describe in words. If you could see my face right now as I am typing it would look like this

Returned today for another lovely evening at Royal That. Though my dish didn't surpass my already super high expectations, my bf's dish (called Swimming Angel) was certainly a taste of heaven.
Royal Thai, how you amaze me with your delicious freshness of salads, noodles, and dumplings. Every… Read more »
Redhead and I had the pleasure of dining at Stephan Pyles for restaurant week and enjoyed every last bit of it.
The prix fix menu didn't compromise the quality at all and it's almost preferable, in my opinion, to not have as many overwhelming choices…More »
Si, si for Si tapas! Upon just entering my first real 'Dallas' experience with Tapas. Sure, I have tried Tapas in other cities, but wanted to explore what Dallas had to offer in the realm of Paella and Spanish fare.
Si Tapas is situated in a cozy,…More »

Yum! I had the hummus the other night for dinner (I am currently being crazy right now and attempting to diet) and it was scrumptious. The chickpeas were freshly smashed and mixed as I could tell in each generous scoop. I enjoy a rougher texture in…More »
