Spinach and other white pizzas get their own category like deep dish would.

Cool, thanks for the info! I really wish they would have gone with The Egg & I or a local restaurant instead.. I didn't think the IHOP Cafe on NW Military was anything to write home about.

Another? Why wait?? If your current son is < 18 it's never too late for a legal name change

I would rather live in "a van down by the river" than over an IHOP.

Very lame review. Okay bar, lacked the youthful presence though. Plop that place in Addison or Uptown Dallas and you would have to wait in line to pee.

They do actually have 3 Alofts in the Dallas area. We stayed at the one in Las Colinas several weeks ago since we were in town for a concert and they are a dog-friendly hotel brand. The bar area was actually quite busy from happy hour until close both nights we were there, mainly w/young corporate folks from the area rather than guests - we didn't hang around it much, though.

Right now all Alofts look virtually the same - same bar setup, same pool table, same guest rooms, etc. - but I wonder if that will change in the future.

Ah Las Colinas? The manager had mentioned Frisco...cool.

Is was the opposite at the SA location. Seemed like guests who had already changed and dressed down and comfy for the night. Hanging out at the pool and inside pool table.

Ill try it at HH.

My personal fav, from the Amalfi coast. It doesn't get more traditional than this: Click image for larger version
