8 Great Restaurants Open Late in Dallas Fort Worth

Looking for something to eat late in the evening? Skip the fast food drive-thru and head straight for that good-good. There’s no reason you shouldn’t be able to enjoy some of the amazing local restaurants in Dallas Fort Worth after traditional dinner hours. Here are a few of my favorite restaurants open late in Dallas Fort Worth.

Greenville Avenue Pizza | Lower Greenville Dallas

Also known as GAP Co, this is one of my long time favorites when it comes to restaurants open late in Dallas! After a fun night out in Lower Greenville, stop by Greenville Avenue Pizza for a slice (or an entire pie). I personally tend to go for the BBQ Chicken Pizza or the Hawaiian Pizza.

Where? 1923 Greenville Ave, Dallas, TX 75206

 When? They are open until 1am on Monday, 3am Tuesday-Thursday + Sunday and 4am on Friday and Saturday.

WOW! Donuts and Drips | Plano

Not many places can pull off using “WOW!” in their name, but Wow! Donuts and Drips sure can. They are wowing the Plano community and beyond (sorry not sorry for the pun) with their extravagant donuts, delicious drinks, late hours and overall all amazing aesthetic (#DOTIFORTHEGRAM). How many of you can say your donut does all of that, and does it well? Proceed with caution when going into Wow! Donuts and Drips… You might be like me, going in for one donut and leaving with two dozen.

Where? 6509 W Park Blvd #420, Plano, TX 75093

When? They’re open until 10pm Monday-Saturday and 9pm on Sunday.

Salsa Limón | Downtown Dallas

I was first introduced to Salsa Limon, during my time at TCU, but when I discovered the Dallas location I was all about it. This is one of the best of the best when it comes to restaurants open late in Dallas (and Fort Worth). So please do yourself a favor and stop by one of their multiple locations located throughout Fort Worth and Dallas and order yourself an El Capitan! 

Where? 411 North Akard Street, Dallas, Texas 75201 + multiple locations in Fort Worth

When? Each location varies, but generally speaking they’re open until 3am Friday-Saturday and 9pm Sunday-Thursday.

Serious Pizza | Deep Ellum Dallas

Raise your hand if you love pizza. Raise your hand if you love pizza as big as your face. Sound about right? Then you, my friend, are going to love Serious Pizza! Located in Deep Ellum, Serious Pizza is a staple for the late nights spent after concerts or playing Jenga on the Green Room rooftop. PS, they have a very Insta-worthy building front, just ask DallasLoveList.

Where? 2807 Elm St, Dallas, TX 75226

 When? They are open until 3am on Friday-Saturday, and 11pm Sunday-Thursday.

Texas Live! | Arlington

So Texas Live! is technically a district with multiple restaurants and bars, but they also have the “Live! Arena” which is the main part of this Arlington powerhouse. If you’re in the Arlington/Grand Prairie area for a game or concert, this is one of my favorite restaurants open late in Dallas Fort Worth. The atmosphere is unbeatable- and I have yet to be disappointed by the food!

Where? 1650 E Randol Mill Rd, Arlington, TX 76011

 When? They are open until 2am on Friday and Saturday, 12am on Thursday and 11pm Sunday-Wednesday.

Velvet Taco | Dallas

There are quite a few locations for Velvet Taco (click here to see them all) in the Dallas Fort Worth metroplex. Velvet Taco is known for their numerous options for unique tacos, and of course the elote and queso! The best taco on the menu? The #2 Rotisserie chicken. Thank me later!

Where? 11700 Preston Road, Suite 600 Dallas, TX 75230 (and more)

When? They are open until 3am on Friday-Saturday, and 11pm Sunday-Thursday.

Better Than Sex Desserts | Plano

Okay so Better Than Sex Desserts just opened in Downtown Plano in September… and I am beyond excited about it. It’s not open every day of the week, but the days it is open, it’s open late! This is a huge win for those of us who live near Downtown Plano.

Where? 1010 E 15th St, Plano, TX 75074

When? They are open until 1am Friday-Saturday and 12am Sunday-Thursday.

Playground | Uptown Dallas

Located in the heart of Uptown, Playground Bar is exactly what you’re imaging: an adult haven complete with yard games, carpi-suns and your favorite late night snacks. I’m a big fan of the tacos, but you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. The best part, the taco window is open v late.

Where? 2908 McKinney Ave, Dallas, TX 75204

When? They are open until 2am on Sunday-Thursday and 3am on Friday-Saturday.
