Danny & Alesia
Things To Do
Niwa Japanese BBQ
One of Alesia's top two restaurants in Dallas! Japanese BBQ style where you cook your food on a small grill in the table. Fun Fact: They have happy hour all day every Tuesday so naturally every Tuesday Alesia wakes up and says "Niwa??"
Uchiba
Danny’s favorite restaurant in Dallas! Fresh, amazing sushi and delicious small plates to share. Tip: make sure you try the pork belly and the Brussels sprouts!
Sketches of Spain
Alice
Eclectic and intimate spot for Asian fusion tapas! Fun fact: this is where Danny took Alesia for dinner right before he proposed! ♥️ He didn’t make reservations, but we suggest you do!
Harlowe MXM
Great spot to grab brunch the morning after the wedding! Great food, a sparkle bar (mimosas), and a cool old-timey vibe.
Zaguan
The best and only Venezuelan restaurant in Dallas! They’re known for their delicious cachapas. Fun fact: Alesia took Danny here to try Venezuelan food for the first time!
Ruins
Authentic Mexican street tacos and drinks! Fun spot on a Friday or Saturday night and the kitchen is open till 2am! Fun fact: this is Alesia & Danny’s place of choice for a night of dancing!
Pecan Lodge
If you’ve looked up “what to do in Dallas” this has appeared on your list. Up for debate, but some say it’s the best BBQ in Dallas! Tip: lines can get long, but if you order 5 or more pounds of meat you can skip the line. Go with a group and have yourself a feast!
Emporium Pies
A staple in Dallas. Trust us, you’ve never tasted pies like these. Definitely check this spot out if you have a sweet tooth! They make pie-ice cream too which is pretty wild. Fun fact: Alesia requests a pie from here on her birthday instead of a birthday cake (key-lime pie to be exact).
The Nasher Sculpture Center
Beautiful sculpture museum in the heart of downtown Dallas. Don’t leave without taking a stroll through the sculpture garden!
John F. Kennedy Memorial Plaza
We haven't gone, but it's a popular destination for tourists! The museum is located on the street where JFK was shot.
Bishop Cidercade
Fun spot for the kids and those of us that are still kids at heart! $10 to get in, unlimited arcade games and $8 hard ciders.
Katy Trail Ice House
One of the best outdoor patios in Dallas! Drinks are served in oversized chilled goblets. Fun Fact: Alesia’s favorite drink is the Summer Beer which is a Blue Moon, Lemonade, and Vodka.
Enrique Tomas
Alesia's other favorite restaurant! One of the few places you can get Jamon Iberico. This is a great place to go for a late dinner on Friday night, head upstairs to their lounge afterwards if you want to practice your dancing for Saturday!
Observation Deck
Wanna check out Dallas from above? Head to the Observation Deck in the Reunion Tower! Tip: Don’t bother with the restaurant (overpriced and overrated, at least that’s what we’ve heard).
Dallas Museum Of Art
Most exhibits are free to the public!
