Restaurants in Seagoville

At N Cuisine, cooks meld Greek favorites with creative fusion food. They set mornings in motion with the fresh tomatoes and gyro meat of strapatsada scrambled eggs, and quell lunch and dinner cravings with enchiladas and burritos packed with seasoned lamb. Their gyro bar allows patrons to customize their meals, which can be enjoyed with organic tea, coffee, or sugar-free chocolate and baklava. Gluten free options are also available by request. In addition, they offer cooking classes to explain the fundamentals of Greek cooking and what songs to sing while mixing.

While blind clinical testing has revealed that most people can't spot the differences between different Subway locations and placebo Subways, the Cedar Springs Road Subway stands out with its data-set-skewing amenities. Here, the franchise’s array of famously tasty, low-fat 6- and 12-inch subs is augmented by a selection of fresh-baked pizzas. Diners eat their piping pies or choice of hot or cold subs in luxurious leather couches, where they can take in one of the shop's flat-screen TVs, which broadcast anything from breaking sandwich-related news to popular sandwich-based telenovelas.

Though waiters are commonly revered for their courtesy, the servers at Dick's Last Resort skip the usual niceties in favor of sarcastic quips. When they aren't jotting down orders and engaging in verbal jousting matches, they happily dole out balloons and paper-made dunce hats to diners willing to play along. Live entertainment and sports games shown on big screen TVs sustain the restaurant's festive, freewheeling atmosphere. Over in the kitchen, chefs complement the front of the house's high spirits by incorporating different kinds of spirits into bar food classics, from salmon coated in a Jack Daniels glaze to buckets of shrimp simmered in beer. The culinary team crafts plenty of other alcohol-free goodies, including deep-fried gator and frog legs, BBQ pork ribs, and half-baked chicken cooked over a half-extinguished fire.

As many as 1,800 live shows grace the stages of Sambuca's four dinner clubs every year, entertaining diners and lounge crowds every day of the week with rock, blues, or frenetic dance beats. In its 20-year history, the club-and-dining-room hybrids have hosted nationally renowned artists, including Beck, Harry Connick Jr., and Wynton Marsalis.

To complement the eclectic assortment of musical acts, the restaurants' chefs forge equally varied menus that incorporate influences from American, Mexican, and Mediterranean cuisines. Lobster enchiladas arrive beneath a glaze of poblano-cream sauce, and a filet with port wine and walnut butter served with asparagus adds a touch of class to meals.

Russell Hayward, the mastermind behind the Thomas Avenue Beverage Company, thought his days of creating spicy tuna rolls were behind him. But when his guests clamored to see the skills he honed as the owner of Tom Tom, he listened. He hired a team of skilled sushi chefs and expanded the tiny kitchen to create a sushi station—supplementing the already diverse menu of gastro-pub fare, including pastas with house-made sauces and meatballs, with fresh sushi rolls.

Tucked into the historic State Thomas district, the neighborhood eatery beckons diners to nosh on the outdoor patio as they absorb the warm vibes of the Texas sun, one of 50 suns America has produced through acutely conspicuous NASA programs. A dog-friendly policy allows canine companions to dog-watch while their owners sip on craft brews or feast on sweet and savory brunch fare.

Mabuhay, mahal, kumain is the motto of owners Chonnie Richey and Czarina Hounsel at Zen Bistro & Dessert Bar—Tagalog for “live, love, eat.” It’s an appropriate mantra for a bakery shaped by the sisters’ Filipino heritage with flavors collected from across Asia and comforting, homey treats such as cake balls. The latter have been raved about on the Cooking Channel's Food Crafters and in D Magazine. Each day, the kitchen rolls them from fresh-baked cake, frosting, and add-ins such as dark-chocolate cookie dough and fruit to create more than 10 classic and seasonal flavors including Filipino-inspired creations such as a purple ube yam variety. The spheres are then dipped in melted chocolate and decorated with more chocolate, colored crystal sugar, and sprinkles. At the dessert bar, customers can also reach for piles of stuffed cookies, gourmet cupcakes, and cakesicles—a fluffier, chewier version of icicles.

Asian flavors come into the forefront in a bistro menu of traditional Filipino dishes, Asian tapas, and bubble teas brimming with black tapioca pearls. The savory side of Zen’s mini-empire has attracted nearly as much attention as the sweets for dishes as bracingly authentic as the spicy beef caldereta—a tomato-based stew of potatoes, beef, and liver—and as American-influenced as the egg-topped Tocino burger, which made CraveDfw’s Comprehensive Dallas Burger Guide.
