"For a city that can only yearn for a coastline, Dallas has a lot of great sushi bars. Kaiyo is one of them, nailing the sushi and opting for bright colors, loud music, table seating, and a patio instead of a formal omakase counter. Check the board for the evening’s nigiri flight, featuring seven rotating pieces like salmon belly, hamachi, and scallop, then double down on omega-3s with the tuna pizza. It’s a Japanese-Mexican hybrid that drapes thinly sliced tuna, serrano peppers, and capers over a crunchy tostada. When you’re done, keep the evening rolling with a cocktail or glass of wine at one of the many nearby bars along Greenville Avenue." - Kevin Gray
