I think we can all agree that Dallas is full of amazing restaurants that offer a variety of delicious food. Some of the most delicious dishes are found at our local Dallas restaurants.
Urbano Cafe is a must-visit food spot, located just outside the heart of the city. This cozy bistro blends American and Italian flavors together to create delicious food offerings. When you visit, begin your meal with the tasty caprese s’mores — melty mozzarella sandwiched between toasty crostini with tomato jam and balsamic glaze. For your entree, we recommend the veal bolognese or pistachio-crusted Texas redfish, but you truly can’t go wrong with any item on the menu!
📍 1410 N Fitzhugh Ave, Dallas, Texas, 75204
Drink local Dallas! From coffee shops, to breweries, pubs, and local distilleries, Dallas has so many local drink spots that you should know about. Here’s a list of some of our favorites:
There’s no better place to support your community and get connected to the community than at Sip Stir Coffee House. This family-owned business focuses on creating a space to foster to relationships just as much as they focus on crafting spectacular cups of coffee. They have all of the traditional drinks, but if you want something a little different, we recommend the Butter Beer or Coconut Pie Latte. You won’t be disappointed by a stop in.
📍 3800 McKinney Ave, Suite 180, Dallas, Texas, 75204
