Five Sixty by Wolfgang Puck Dallas
Fifty stories up, high above the downtown office buildings, sits Five Sixty by Wolfgang Puck, the famed chef’s first Dallas restaurant. As if the floor-to-ceiling windows and rotating, 360-degree view weren’t drama enough, the food is equally breathtaking. Start with pork belly dumplings; move on to seafood curry or crispy quail. We like fresh-from-the-oven cookies for dessert.

Beckley BrewHouse Dallas
What once was a crack den (true story) is now home to Beckley BrewHouse — part coffeehouse, part neighborhood restaurant. Sip on a coffee-centric martini made by a friendly barista behind a blue tile counter, then peruse the collection of take-a-book, leave-a-book titles. The kitchen turns out yummy pizzas, burgers, and a surprise weekly special. Smoking not allowed.

For You European Cafe and Delicatessan Dallas
This authentic Polish restaurant serves the real deal: placki ziemniaczane (potato pancakes with sour cream or apple sauce), schabowy (a pan-seared pork cutlet), and golabki (cabbage stuffed with pork, beef, and rice). It’s cozy, with just a few tables. So you might have to wait. Or you could just get your sausages to go.

Civello's Raviolismo Dallas
Those handmade raviolis you get at restaurants around town (Campisi’s, Prego, Terilli’s)? They’re made here. But you don’t have to have a D.B.A. to get perfect pasta. Drop by before 3 p.m. weekdays and choose from up to eight of the store’s 30 varieties. We recommend the nutty pumpkin or crab with roasted garlic, though ricotta and beef with spinach always make the daily cut. Cash or check only.

The Mansion Restaurant Dallas
The Mansion is a Dallas icon, and dining there is like sharing a meal with a grande dame. The menu changes with the seasons, but tortilla soup is a year-round staple. The clubby bar is a treat of its own, with wine chats, live music on weekends, and the unshakable feeling that you might meet some rich someone who could sweep you off your feet (and take you upstairs to one of the fancy-pants rooms).

Ocean Prime Dallas
Small steak and seafood chain that channels a retro supper club (dark wood, schmancy drapes, snazzy cocktails) in the heart of Uptown. The Prime Hour (4-6 p.m.) menu dishes cheap bites like $5 truffled deviled eggs.

Thai2go Dallas
Small Thai resto with lots of style. Not only is the contemporary decor appetizing, but the healthy dishes are delish — and way filling. Dessert (especially the custard and sticky rice) is not to be missed.
