Moving into our new house this weekend in lake highlands. I have never lived on this side of town and welcome any good local knowledge.
That's where my parents live, Dunmore.powerbelly said:

Since you mentioned it twice, I'd just like to say that Taco Joint sucks! Lots of bland, prepackaged ingredients. Not sure why it gets hype.FincAg said:

Corby dines at Taco Diner; happy hour at Fish City Grill is busy.
We are about to reach taco nirvana: Taco Diner, Resident Taqaria, Taco Joint, MI Cocina, then Fuzzy's at Abrams/Skillman, El Vecino at Buckner in OLH.

And to reach taco nirvana, you need Torchy's or Tacos y Mas.

There is a Torchy's down on Buckner at Garland Rd.... I know thats not LH it's Casa Linda but it's close enough for us. We go down to that corner and area a lot.
There are other good things down there too....you are missing out if you don't head south a bit sometimes.
All of these are also at Garland/Buckner:
Another Broken Egg Cafe - great brunch
Lover's Pizza - great slices NY style
Nothing Bundt Cakes - great little Bundt cakes for special occasions
Havana Cafe and Mojito Bar - good cuban food
Dugg Burger - gourmet burgers
Pei Wei
Chili's
Albertson's which is 10x better than the hell thats is Kroger's right now.
other things nearby down that way off Garland Rd.
Casa Linda Bakery - great custom cakes for all occasions and some awesome cookies too
Hypnotic Donuts - I know the owner, awesome little place, creative
Smoky Rose - by the Arboretum very very good BB, more high end, great weekend brunch
Good Friend Beer Garden and Burger House

El Vecino & Alamo Drafthouse
Oh, and don't drive like a %^&ing Indy Car racer through the neighborhood. You're likely to get shanked for that!

So, when do all of us who don't live in LH get to start posting about where we live being so much better?

This thread seems appropriate. 3/4 of all the suggested places are south of nwhwy
I humbly disagree. After having a fine yet isolating time in the burbs, we were extremely intentional about our move. We've been in LH 2 years this month and it is been nothing short of great. It is very easy to make new friends, getting involved in the community is highly encouraged, great parks, plenty of church options, entertainment options. The only real thing lacking is a really good grocery store, but I can live with Kroger and hit Central Market when needed.Quote:
