Use to work up in North Dallas. We use to eat at Gloria's off of Dallas Parkway and I think Trinity Mills every now and then.

Also, we use to eat at Cici's Pizza alot, which I think is right near the intersection of Trinity Mills and Midway.

Also, if you ever come to Downtown Dallas (where I work), you should definately check out a restaurant called Mia's. It is off the corner of Lemon and Wycliff, which was one of Landry's favorite restaurants.

It was also where Jerry took Jimmy, when he was hiring him as coach. He thought he was hiding Jimmy from the public, but little did they know that it was basically a shrine to Landry .

Amen to Mia's... if you are in the downtown area you may want to try Bob's Steak and Chop House...

The Flying Saucer in Addison is a cool place...

Hahaha, I was trying to think of the name of that place. I have only been to Carson's once, but that place was great. Live band and lot's of eye candy. It gets really packed though.

When I go up for cowboy games I stay in Addison it is nice and coveniet and I can stumble back to the hotel room so no dui

They have lots of resturants.

A fun place to go if you want novelty is
Medieval Times
2021 N Stemmons Fwy
Dallas, TX 75207

Get a show and some fun if you are into things liek that and by the way you have to eat with your hands (no silverware hehe).
