(From January 2012) Your blood pressure is bound to drop here; no one seems to be in a rush to leave. Open since 1946, this funky, friendly burger joint also offers chicken-fried steak, and nowadays there’s even grilled chicken on the menu. Our platter of CFS came with a boatload of gravy, a pint of fries, and sliced tomatoes (a healthy touch). The dessert option is still just a candy bar, but at least now you can get something other than Snickers. Beer. |

(From January 2012) Sometimes when it’s hard to make up our mind, we go with a vegetable plate. And what better place to order one than at this small Lakewood hangout; it’s got its own garden out back and one of the best alfresco dining areas in Dallas. Divine roasted brussels sprouts, creamy cheese grits, well-seasoned pinto beans, and a house salad with a winning lemon vinaigrette all combined to make a terrific entrée. The kitchen outdid itself with a plum-peach pie (it goes without saying that the crust was homemade) crowned with vanilla ice cream. |

(From May 2011) Lentil soup brimming with chunky carrots must have been simmering for days; it was ambrosial. And we do think the toothsome Shrop Burger—blue and cheddar cheese; a special mix of onions, bacon, and spices; baby spinach leaves; and garlic mayo on a ciabatta bun—vies with the Stoneleigh’s venerable burger on pumpernickel, which is a favorite of many folks. The Godiva pie has got to be mostly air, right? It’s got a toasty meringue, a chocolate mousse filling, and a decorative drizzle of bittersweet dark chocolate sauce. We love this no frills bar—long may its doors stay open. Bar. |
