Looking for a kid-friendly, old school pizza joint with lots of options? This is it. Not only is the menu loaded with classic Italian dishes, but the types of pizza are...all of them. Scratch your itch for Chicago, New York, tavern, and Dallas style pizzas.

This lively new spot is one to visit ASAP. Order wildly because all the Tex-Mex staples one expects are there. But make sure to try the Tex-Mex pizza, which instantly became the most popular thing on the menu. The guava frozen margarita is pretty great too.

The space that used to hold Rapscallion on Lowest Greenville has gotten a massive interior makeover. Chef and owner Toby Archibald is serving seasonal fare, with a focus on food influenced by his travels and his homeland of New Zealand. On the menu are a 48-hour beef short rib, parmesan-buttered grouper, and hot-smoked Glory Bay salmon, plus some vegetable-centered entrees.

Pizza and martinis? Heck yes. This new Harwood pizza joint is a feast for the eyes, with it’s old-world charm, and for the palette, with its thin-crust, crispy pizzas and a slew of martinis.

This Mexican-inspired restaurant in the Design District may be one of the most delightfully designed restaurants to open in Dallas this year. The menu is no slouch, either. Some standout dishes include mole negro masa, osso buco carnitas, and beef aguachile.

The signature dish at Tim Love’s new spot in the Fort Worth Stockyards is baked oysters. And yes, trying them is a must. But don’t miss the duck confit shepherd’s pie, if you’re looking for something hearty, or the fried bologna sandwich made with house-made mortadella, if you’re looking for an elevated take on a simple idea.

Nick Badovinus, the chef behind Town Hearth and Neighborhood Services, does it again with a Downtown “old school” steakhouse. Enjoy a steak dinner with a martini under the watchful eyes of a whole lot of rams.
