Fat Ni

2528 Old Denton Drive, Suite 310 Carrollton/Farmers Branch

469-900-8887

Chinese, Street Food, Essentials

Fat Ni is fun. Everything about it is fun. Well, it's in a strip mall, but aside from the location, it's a good time. To order you'll get a sheet of paper on which to check off boxes, almost like ordering Girl Scout cookies. It allows newbies to get familiar with the options. Then, in the open kitchen you can watch the skewers of meat cooking over the grill. Each skewer is brought out as soon as it's done, making for a parade of offerings to the table. "Oh! Scallops!"

Top Pick: The lamb and tendon skewers are tender and flavorful, but we also devoured every bit of a spicy chicken soup with house-made noodles. Super long noodles can at times make for awkward table manners, so maybe bring your own scissors.

Taqueria Latina

6412 Skillman St. Northeast Dallas

Mexican, Street Food, Specialties, Recommended

It’s not hard to figure out why the tortas at this tiny taqueria are some of the best to be found in Dallas. The owners, who opened a deli just down the street, have been turning out some amazing sandwiches for over two years now. You might think that tacos are the thing to order when you visit a taquaria, especially when the place boasts handmade tortillas and solid fillings, but the tortas here are in a league of their own, with crispy bread and fresh fillings that make for hearty eating. Bring a friend and split a quesadilla while you’re at it. With melted cheese that pulls in strings and your choice of either onions and peppers or any of the meat fillings, they just may be one of the best uses of fresh tortilla dough you’ll find here.

Torteria Insurgentes

3701 W. Northwest Highway Northwest Dallas

214-366-2624

Mexican, Street Food, Critics' Pick

This mini-chain serves up killer alambres — a whole skillet of meat, peppers, onions and cheese with folded tortillas alongside — and excellent, filling Mexican breakfasts at rock-bottom prices. The chilaquiles are outstanding, and so are the long, oval-shaped quesadillas, prepared as they are in Mexico City. That doesn’t even mention the restaurant’s namesake tortas, enormous sandwiches stacked with so much filling, the bread sometimes falls apart. The notorious torta cubana, which comes with something like a half-dozen meats, is a true hunger buster.
