Try Rail Head or Hard Eight. Both put Lockhart to shame Originally Posted by txexetoo

Really good BBQ and close to me is Off the Bone between south Arlington and Ft Worth. Looks like an old Dairy Queen on Mansfield Hwy in Forest Hill. Better than any I have had in Dallas.

Wow, just looking at all the menus is torture. So many places so little time.

I go to Hooters for hot wings and beer and solve three of my desires at one time.

David's BBq in Arlington/ Pantego is pretty darn good also if your looking for BBQ.

I'm surprised this one wasn't mentioned much earlier. Pecan Lodge moved from the Farmers Market Shed #2 over to Deep Ellum at Main & Pryor.

It's been a long time but Sweet Basil in North Dallas has good Italian. Located at Midway & Trinity Mills. Small, quaint establishment almost hidden in the shopping strip on the NE corner of the intersection.

I really like Brios. Allen location at Waters Creek has a fantastic atmosphere. Also located in Southlake. It has a Tuscan flare I really like better than the heavier traditional fare.

Nick and Sam's for Steak
Truluck's for Seafood
Del Frisco's not bad
Mercardo Juarez for Mexican
