Delight in Asian-inspired decor and deliciously boozy cocktails at Casablanca.
Casablanca
Discover the unexpected at this Silk Road-inspired eatery in the heart of the Bishop Arts Center. This otherworldly oasis serves up exotic eats—think Egyptian-spiced lamb skewers and Thai popcorn chicken—among vibrant decor and sumptuous textures. Don your best tea party attire for the resto’s Boozy Tea Time, or hit up The Palm Bar at Casablanca for well-curated craft cocktails. 200 N. Bishop Ave., Ste. 113, casablancadtx.com
The Charles
Italian design from the 18th century to the 1970s inspired the lavish decor at Chas Martin’s sexy 80-seat dining venue in the Design District. Chef J. Chastain (former stints include time at Stephan Pyles and The Mansion on Turtle Creek) helms the kitchen, focused on shareable crudos, wood-fired fare and pasta made in-house. Bar Charles, a sultry extension of the restaurant, is a delightfully laidback Champagne lounge perfect for an aperitif or two. 1632 Market Center Blvd., thecharlesdallas.com
The Charles boasts dark, sexy environs perfect for date night.
Town Hearth
Chef-owner Nick Badovinus’ Design District venture is packed nightly with fans imbibing cocktails and selections from the well-curated beer and wine list. The dusky interior is outfitted with tufted leather banquettes while light plays off crystal chandeliers. A fish tank housing a yellow submarine and the chrome fenders of a Ducati motorcycle over the bar and a vintage sports car showcased in the open kitchen add to the retro vibe. 1617 Market Center Blvd., townhearth.com
Opulence awaits at The Star’s latest eatery and lounge.

The 4,100-squarefoot space evokes an Art Deco inspired ambiance and touts a sizable selection of authentic cuisine and creative cocktails that will undoubtedly please the palate.
