Best of the best
With more than 10,000 restaurants in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, narrowing them down to a Top 100 is no easy task. The News' restaurant critics crossed forks more than a few times in fleshing out this list.

What you see is a compilation that includes old favorites, newer picks and places that have rocketed to national acclaim. Check the list often. Some restaurants may drop off. Others may close. And some may move from Hot & New to Top 100 status – meaning that some other restaurant loses its spot. If your favorite restaurant isn't here, look for it our Best by Cuisine list.
