Best Places to Eat in Duncanville

Get Out and Taste Something New!

The city of Duncanville is a unique area of South Dallas with plenty of excellent cuisine. If you’re looking for some tips on favorite restaurants and best places for a good meal, check out some of the top-rated Duncanville locales below.

The Pelican House

Celebrate Mardi Gras year round with Creole and Cajun cuisine at The Pelican House. You can’t resist fried alligator or marinated crab claws to get your appetite going. Check out the blue crab, a fried oyster platter, bourbon shrimp, or red beans and rice. Seafood bisque or gumbo can make a great addition to your meal. For something more casual, order a po boy. And just try to decide between bread pudding, beignets, and key lime pie.

Mudhook Bar

Mudhook Bar offers more than a huge selection of beer, wine, and other spirits. Check out single, double, and triple burgers with toppings like slabs of thick cut bacon, multiple cheeses, mushrooms, and more. Try a flatbread option with carne asada or chicken, and get delicious hand dipped onion rings on the side. Four layer carrot cake and blueberry crème brulee cheesecake make you want to save room for dessert, though you may have to cut out a beef patty!

Smokey D’Z BBQ

Mesquite, applewood, hickory…what’s the best barbecue? Check out Smokey D’Z BBQ, touted as the home of the backyard bbq, and using hickory wood smoke for tender, juicy flavor. And with a dramatic expansion to their location last summer, there’s room for more diners. They also have a performance stage for entertainment. But who cares? The best selling Sloppy Mess Potato with all their meats, sauce, and baked beans speaks for itself.

The Coaches Box

The Coaches Box was founded with a dedication to serving home-cooked food to the south Dallas community and continues to offer fresh ingredients and home cooking. Aside from the fun sports themed menu idea, the food is phenomenal, and they now offer catering options. For a first visit, try a mushroom onion burger, beer battered chicken, or fried catfish. To take home, check out the chicken wing varieties or some stadium nachos.
