What's the best restaurant in Dallas?

Dallas' best restaurant is___. Tell us about your favorite Dallas spots!

By Stacy Rounds

We’re on a mission to find the best dining spots in Dallas, and we need your help! Dallas’ food scene is one of the best in the US, celebrated for its Tex-Mex, fine dining, modern eats, and emerging culinary stars (like Starship Bagel, which won last year’s New York Bagelfest award for best bagel in a blind taste test!). From comforting Cajun favorites to cutting-edge world cuisine, our local dining establishments have plenty of delicious options to offer locals and impress visitors.

We believe the best recommendations come from you, the diners, who know the local food scene inside and out. That’s why we’re inviting all food lovers to vote for the best restaurants in Dallas.

Help us celebrate the establishments that make Dallas a gastronomic delight, and let’s discover which restaurants will take the crown as the city’s favorites this year. Participate in our poll, share your top picks, and stay tuned as we unveil your most beloved dining destinations.
