The DFW List

The DFW List

The Following is a list of our favorite local restaurants – some for special occasions – others just for everyday meals…

1. Aparicio’s – Plano – of course. (See 8/10/05 Entry)

2. Japon Steak & Sushi – Plano – Whether for Sushi or the Hibachi/Teppan grill, it’s the best. Their California Rolls are the best I’ve had anywhere!

3. Jorg’s Austrian Café & Biergarten – Plano – Austrian cuisine – great beer and a really old accordion player!

4. King Kabob – Plano – Armenian-owned – so we’re biased – but very tasty kabobs, hummus and other sides. (No Website) - 6205 Coit Rd., Plano 75024

5. Lawry’s Prime Rib – North Dallas – Always a classic!

6. Terilli’s – the Frisco Location. Nice intimate dinner – and those Italchos (Italian Nachos) are the best thing imitating pizza that I’ve found.

7. Wingcredible! - Allen – They have yummy flavors – the Sweet Chili is the best! – and they use jumbo-sized wings. (Where DO they find the jumbo chickens?)

8. Joe’s Crab Shack – All Over – If you haven’t tried the BBQ Dungeness Crab, you haven’t truly eaten at Joe’s. This BBQ involves no sticky, sweet sauce – just an incredible preparation for crab.

9. Pei Wei – All Over – PF Chang’s cheaper alternative. Many of the same dishes – more casual atmosphere and still just as yummy.

10. Tin Star – Several Locations – Their gourmet tacos – available in tortilla or lettuce cups for those watching carbs – are just a wonderful alternative to ‘regular’ tacos. The Cheeseburger Tacos are pretty good, too!
