Good: I wish the star system on Judy's Book didn't call 3 stars average and 4 stars great, but since they do, I rate the Tap-In as 3.5 stars. It is a good neighborhood pub in a great location, with average food and average service.. Bad: Neither the food nor the service was amazing, but you don't particularly expect amazing from pub grub even though I feel like I am more often than not pleasantly surprised by bar food..

Great new store for Grapevine and the historic Main Street area which is one of my favorite areas. It fits in well both with the tourist shopper and the high end surrounding area.
Basically they are a high end designer consignment shop. Their slogan is "Upscale Consignment Boutique". They have lots of super expensive Italian name designers at decent prices.
Also, probably a good way to get some money back on high end accessories and clothes that you don't want or need any more.
I am always looking for deals and although I am probably not their target market, I wanted to at least pass on the knowledge I gained as a tasted wines at Grapefest with 250,000 of my closest friends.

Houstonites have a nostalgia for Cyclone Anayas that I don't really understand except that they grew up with it.
It is a little fancier and more expensive than most of the mexican restaurants in the Dallas market. Not as nice as Javiers, probably comparable niceness to Mi Cocina or Carolina's but not as good and more expensive.
I don't think Cyclose Anayas is bad but Dallas has some of the best Mexican cuisine options around so it is hard for me to give them a standout rating.

They are great with kids. They teach professional and competitive athletes but I know more about their youth programs and when you see the little kids rolling around on the mat in their uniforms and their smiling faces afterwards, you know they are at a great place.
They have programs for martial arts, wrestling, MMA, jiu jitsu, etc.

Known for their good breakfasts and european groceries. My friends would say the best thing they have is their pimento chees which makes for a great dip for a party or just hanging out.

BBQ is good and consistent Texas BBQ. It is not KC style, Memphis style, North Carolina style, etc.
They have a decent small bar scene of regulars. Nothing too amazing but a good spot.

Convenient location for the eastern half of Plano and eastern Dallas and obviously Richardson with their location right off 75. Also, one of only a handful of places in all of Dallas Fort Worth to get authentic dim sum and truly authentic chinese food. Along with Maxims (also in Richarson), Hong Kong Royal (in Carrollton and probably my favorite), First BBQ with a couple locations (but more chinese and less dim sum) and Kirin Court, those are main choices.
Kirin Court has traditional dim sum cart service on the weekends which is when I would recommend going. Lot of options and they push them table to table to let you pick. Great place and I definitley reccomend it.

Good: Great steakhouse within a city obsessed with steak houses. The steak is very good and I would say is one of the better, if not the best steaks, in Dallas. I also like the bar / hang out / club before/ after dinner area. Not sure what to call it but it is unique.. Bad: I would say that for the price it doesn't have the cache that Three Forks, Del Frisco, Bob's or Al Biernats has. But I feel like possibly because of that it does everything a little better across the board because they are not resting on its laurels like some of the others tend to do at times. Also the bar area can be crowded and a scene at times.. Improvements: I don't really have any suggestions for them. I think they do a good job fairly across the board. Maybe slightly pricey on some of their drinks and entrees but not too bad.. Other: I really should go there more often but the steak house business is very competetive in Dallas with lots of good options, but I definitely like their filet and think it is one of the better ones and I also think they do a lot of the little things well..
