I will say, I've never waited any amount of time when I went to a Hard Eight's though. Just pick the meat at the door and right on in.
But I'm open to new experiences. I went to North Main Street being open to new experiences and ended up wondering what the fuss was about.
Cattleack is in Farmers Branch, Pecan Lodge is in Deep Ellum.
Cattleack is only open for lunch Thursday and Friday, and often sell out. It's a bit of a process to get food there unfortunately, but it is really, really worth it.
Pecan Lodge is open for lunch every day expect Mondays. Usually 30-60min wait. It's a bit of a Dallas institution so it's slightly touristy.
Hard 8 is convenient and very good, but if you have a long sit or something in DFW, go check them out.
