Where to see the solar eclipse, hotels and restaurants

Bishop's Art District

Over the past decade or so, the Bishop Arts District has transformed from a rustic place to a full-fledged destination filled with independent boutiques, galleries, restaurants, bars, and coffee shops. There's a funky street market, a series of great women-run shops, and of course, barbecue at Lockhart Smokehouse.

where to eat

Temakeria

Located in Trinity Grove, a shopping center and cultural event space in Dallas, Temaqueria (a venture from Julian Rodarte) is the city's first 2D black-and-white restaurant. Yes, that's right. Although it's a 2D restaurant, nothing about the food is flat. Temakeria serves delicious Japanese hand rolls, sushi, sashimi, and poke nachos. The decorations were all handcrafted by local artist Jonathan Crown and his art, creating a pristine coloring book-like space full of possibilities.

Still Wells

Steak is what you want at the fine dining restaurant Stillwell's at Hôtel Swexan. Inspired by its “deep Texas roots,” Stillwell's pays homage to the ranchers who built the Big D by serving exquisite cuts of meat, from filet mignon to ribeye. Don't overlook the sides either. Potato puree is amazing.

Javier's

When you come to Texas, eat Tex-Mex. Javier's has been around since 1977, and once you sample the fajitas, you'll understand why it's hard to get a table at this famous establishment.

Louis's

There's no place like Louise's. This family-friendly watering hole, beloved by Dalasi locals, is owned and operated by the Kanelakes family, who have been serving drinks and delicious thin-crust pizza for over 35 years. The bar's namesake, the late Louis Kanelakes, was a Dallas legend and a “mercurial genius,” according to a touching obituary in the magazine. texas warden. His mother Alexandra still works at her son's restaurant and her brother Chris runs the kitchen. Most of the time, at least one of his three children hosts or manages a bar. The Greek salad is the best in Texas (the Kanelakes family has deep ties to Greece), and Chris's steak-style mushrooms are also a highlight of the menu. Come to Louise for comforting food and stay for the warm atmosphere the Kanelakes family has built over decades.

Babu's

Babou's is just outside the elevator at Hôtel Swexan and beyond a hidden door. A speakeasy is a nightclub and lounge rolled into one. This club is like an upscale underground dance bar in London. And the lounge is a two-story library with a spiral staircase. The second floor features museum-worthy artwork, including pieces from Babu's owner's Samurai personal collection.

french room

The French Room is Dallas' premier spot for elegant high tea. The Adolphus Hotel's iconic restaurant offers afternoon service including a three-course menu of tea sandwiches, scones and pastries. This dish is paired with loose tea from local tea company Xacti, who create a signature blend just for The Adolphus.

The bathroom is equipped with Le Labo, and the on-site gym includes a sauna and cold plunge pool.
