This is the best burger and beer joint in all of Dallas. I actually met my wife here 13 years ago so I have a fondness for it.
Besides that, this is an awesome "meet" market, and the burgers, wings and even the salads are top notch. The tacos are even serviceable.
Excellent bar staff and nice waitresses.
They have a ton of beer on tap and more in bottles. They even have shuffleboard and a separate darts room.
Open every night of the week. Can get extremely busy on Friday and Saturday nights when it really turns more into a bar.
Wins Observer Awards all the time.

Have had a few good experiences with this florist. They also have gifts, balloons, etc.
One time the flowers that were delivered were a little wilted and they made it right by delivering a new bouquet the same day.
Prices are average, the selection of flowers is standard. They don't really carry exotics but will order in with enough notice. The service is friendly if not overly proactive.
I would use them more frequently if I could stop by and inspect the flowers ahead of time. They have a limited delivery area so I use them only for local events.

I'm not much into comics or anime, but my little sister loves anime so I've frequented this store for gifts for her.
The store recently changed owners and he started importing anime videos - including hard to find ones. The service is excellent. Pricing is standard for this type of merchandise.
They sometimes have viewing nights where people come in and watch anime. I hear those are quite popular. They also have a wide selection of comics and will do special orders on request.

Cute little pre-owned bookstore. Focuses mainly on paperback fiction including romance.
Not a big store, but the owner is very knowledgeable about her inventory, so if you can't find it on shelf, she usually knows if it's in the store somewhere.
Offers a decent exchange rate for trade-ins, although books sell for about half of their cover price. Sometimes more if they are older books (i.e. you won't pay $1.75 on an old hardbound with an orignial retail of $3.50.
To date this is the only bookstore in Rockwall so I support it as much as possible.

This is one of the few cool clothing stores in town, as the name implies.
This tiny shop includes hip clothing for teens through early 40's. I've bought several things for my wife here that I wouldn't be able to find anywhere else but Dallas.
Prices are high but about average for these types of small designer clothes.
The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, especially for someone who doesn't wear women's clothes. They've recommended several outfits my wife has genuinely liked.
Look for the little yellow shop off Goliad.

These guys prefer to work on older cars. Their parking lot looks like a throwback to the 70's.
I've used them once or twice, I wouldn't recommend them for newer cars, late 90's or above. I just don't think they have all the latest equipment. If you've got an older car you're trying to maintain or even a classic car, these guys will do a good job.
I've thought they were a little high on some services but seem to be genuinely honest in their assessments and repair work. That's hard to find these days.

This started out as an antique/furniture shop and morphed into a full-fledged cafe. The French Pear offers sandwiches, soups, and pastries in a quaint country French cafe setting. The food is excellent (or at least everything I've tried). Portions are appropriate and the service is friendly.
They offer lunch and brunch on an almost daily basis.
When you're finished with lunch you can wander next door to look at home furnishings in the other part of the building.

Great advice and selection for indiginous plants. They also have a huge selection of plants that are organic.
They have excellent advice on trees and bushes. If they don't sell it, they'll order it in for you.
They also offer advice and landscaping design services if you need them. The best service in town, including delivery. Prices are average for a nursery.
I would never consider buying plants from Home Depot or Lowe's as long as Tropical John's is around.

Video Village is locally owned and operated. They have a wide selection and tend to carry more independent titles than our local Blockbuster.
While they don't have a "No Late Fee" policy, they are generous with the number of days and if you return the video before 6pm on the day its due they give you a credit on your accoint.
They also have a decent selection of video games and offer them and used DVDs for sale. Prices for these are more reasonable than Blockbuster.
I use Video Village as much as possible so I can avoid Blockbuster's long lines and lousy selection.

They have a wide selection of pre-set rings and bracelets and will do custom settings and designs on request. They also service watches and resize jewelry.
Have recommend them to family and friends.
