With a private room and some extraordinary views, this is a spot you should make sure and see!

Texas Spice is located in the Omni downtown, and they have a lot going for them. The decor is worth seeing. Rustic, but charming, we loved the rough hewn look paired with a stunning view of the Dallas skyline. There were seats outside and a long fireplace, which made us long for those two days in April/October when you can both sit outside and sit by a fire.

Texas Spice boasts locally grown ingredients -- everything on your table pretty much comes from a specified radius in Texas. Most of the dishes are southern, so we found ourselves right at home.

The bread basket was a beautiful presentation and perfect to snack on while we looked over our options.

For starters, we enjoyed the Kuby's jalapeno sausage pizza. Fresh basil, sliced tomatoes, and mushrooms filled out the pizza toppers, and we loved the flavor combinations. The brisket pizza paired with blue cheese appealed to us, too -- but we left that one for next time. Everything on this pizza was done well, right down to the crust. Very solid beginning.

For our entree, we enjoyed the chicken fried ribeye. As any good southern plate should, it was paired with potatoes. These smashed potatoes were amazingly like mom's -- very dense and buttery, some still with their jackets on. Well done! The corn was straight from the cob and was the only thing that tasted a little off to us.

We put up a good fight, but still requested to-go boxes by the end of the evening. Texas Spice was a real treat and we look forward to a return visit.
