A Good Pizza AND/OR philly cheesteak? Restaurant

Does anybody know where I can get a good Philly cheesesteak or good pizza?

Don’t say Zach for Philly cheesesteak or serious pizza. I’m looking for Chicago style and Detroit style pizza.

If anybody has any suggestions that would be appreciated because I haven’t had a good Philly cheesesteak since I went to Philadelphia. I want to try a Chicago style or Detroit style pizza down here in the DFW.

Breakfast tacos

I’m looking for a restaurant or taco stand that sells good breakfast tacos. This place also must have homemade tortillas. For me, the taste of packaged tortillas ruins the meal. I come from central texas where breakfast tacos are a must and there’s some taco stands that only do breakfast, so I need to find something similar asap. Thanks :)

Cheap Food

Does anyone know any restaurants in the Richardson or Garland area that have good lunch and dinner deals? I'm looking for different fast food places with deals and small restaurants with something cheap since I'm a college student. Does anyone have any good spots to check out?

Looking for a specific type of Wagyu steak

My husband and I tried a cut of Zabuton, aka a Denver Steak, when we were visiting Seattle, and I would love to find somewhere local where we can enjoy. It was the perfect blend of everything I like about a steak. My birthday is coming up, so I would love any recommendations if anyone knows where we can find this or a similar cut in the DFW area. My Google searches came up empty and only directed me to where I could purchase online. Thanks in advance!

Pulled pork nachos?

Hello Dallas Foodies! I just recently moved to the area and Im feeling a bit homesick. I just moved from north carolina and we had something there called hillbilly nachos. It was a base layer of thick cut fries(steak-cut like but not as big), layered with pull pork then cheese and barbeque sauce. My question to you guys is this. Is there anything like that in the dalls area?

Thanks in advance!

Culinary Dropout is HORRIFYING

This bar is possibly the worst place to eat in Dallas, Texas. Food taste like 3 day old Sonic that sat in the car. UNCOOKED CHICKEN $50. ROTTEN VEGETABLES $50. Rat and bird shit all over the patio. Management is extremely rude and could not speak in coherent sentences? Maybe drunk? Or just not all the way there? Not equipped to run a restaurant much less their own person. Drinks look good okay, but tasted like expired milk. ANOTHER $25. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE.

I’m visiting Dallas with my 2 sons for next Sundays (9/22) Cowboys game. We’ll be there 2 nights.

Their ages are 19 and 15 and I want to take them to a “real” Texas restaurant experience. Money is no object as this is our “Boys Weekend”. Any recommendations are very welcome!

What are some of best ghost kitchens in Dallas, particularly North of 635?

I'm looking particularly at the shared kitchen spots dedicated to ghost kitchens but open to all.

I know about Legacy West Eats, Ghost Kitchens on Ohio and SRT, Revolving Kitchens and then also Towerwood.

Any other good ones? What are some of your favorite vendors?

The North Texas restaurants readers would bring back

Claire Ballor of The Dallas Morning News writes:

We recently asked readers of our Eat Drink weekly newsletter what long-gone North Texas restaurant they would resurrect if they could. The responses, diverse and passionate, poured in. People shared memories of nearly 150 beloved restaurants, from date night spots to childhood haunts, that have been lost to time.

Here are some of the departed North Texas restaurants readers miss the most, some of which were submitted more than once:

  • Southern Kitchen
  • Spaghetti Warehouse
  • Spanish Village Mexican Restaurant
  • Stampede 66
  • Star Canyon
  • Steak and Ale

Read the full list here.
