Cape Buffalo Bar and Grill

From the curbside out front, Cape Buffalo Grille looks like just another far North Dallas bar and grill. There's a huge patio, happy hour specials, and a massive central bar with plenty of seating and a full menu from 11 a.m. to 1 a.m., but what distinguishes Cape Buffalo from other neighboring establishments is that it also has a stage. "The Buffalo" has been hosting live shows for a while now, and recently remodeled to keep up with the large crowds drawn by local acts. Sports and comfort food score here with favorites that include pineapple mango tuna, Hebrew National franks and namesake Cape buffalo burgers. Be sure to blow your recommended caloric intake with the junk fries -- curly, french and waffle fries with potato chips, Jack and Colby cheeses, bacon, chives and ranch.
