Game day in Dallas isn’t just about football. It’s about rounding up your crew, throwing on your Mustang gear, and heading to top spots like Barley House or HG Supply Co. to watch the Ponies. SMU football is rising fast, and the energy is bigger than ever.

Thanksgiving break always arrives with stellar timing, right when students need a breather from papers, exams, and the swirl of campus life. But for SMU fans, that break also brings football.

Dallas may be packed with sleek steakhouses and high-end restaurants, but some of its best meals come from places you’d least expect. The city is filled with small, unpolished spots that locals swear by, true hole-in-the-wall restaurants where the focus is on good food. These little hidden gems have a classic charm and honesty. Sushi House, Burger House, Naminohana, and Café Pacific are perfect examples: simple, unfussy, and loved for one reason, the food always delivers.
