We've gathered some hot deals at Dallas restaurants, like HERO's summer special called Ballin' on a Budget, which is — funny enough — our middle name.
These deals are mostly for summer 2024. Check socials or websites before heading over to make sure these specials are still on point. We'll update as we go. Bars and restaurants, send us your summertime deals: [email protected].
Bar Colette
3699 McKinney Ave. This sexy lounge runs a graduate seminar on the fine art of cocktails. But this summer, Bar Colette feels us. They've added a frozen pina colada to the menu, The Miami, and a frozen strawberry daiquiri, Vice, each $17. But during aperitivo time (fancy words for happy hour), get both mixed together for a Miami Vice for $12.Bread Winners Bakery and Cafe
3301 McKinney Ave. Wednesdays are winners at Bread Winners in Uptown. Through Aug. 28, get two "select" entrees for $10, plus $5 cocktails and a free dessert. And this is all for a good cause, a portion of sales goes to Dallas Casa. Reservations are highly recommended.Ebb and Flow
2651 Commerce St. and 7300 Lone Star Drive Ebb and Flow locations in Dallas and Plano have $12 lunch specials (beverage included) Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. that include big burgers and colorful protein-topped salads. You could (should) stay over for happy hour from 4 to 6 p.m. for more deals. But, during the summer they also have a bonus happy hour anytime the temperature is over 100 degrees. Noted.Gemma
2323 Henderson Ave. Get a Texas Heat cocktail at the bar at Gemma all summer for $10 (normally $14) made with jalapeno-infused tequila, muddled cilantro, lemon and lime juice with simple syrup. Get an order of their duck fat tater tots with a smoked malt vinegar aioli for just $11 (normal price) and that's a great hot-summer snack.Henry's Majestic
2303 Pittman St. Any day the temperature hits triple digits in August, get 50% off a frozen hibiscus paloma and frozen margarita at Henry's Majestic in West Dallas. These are normally $12, so, yeah, $6. HERO by HG
3090 Nowitzki Way (Victory Park) HERO by HG next to the American Airlines Center is clearly lonely this summer, but who can blame them with their neighbors — the Mavs and Stars — both enjoying off-seasons? Now through the end of summer, they have $5 cocktails, $3 draft beer, $5 select appetizers and $10 burgers and sandwiches. At brunch you can get $5 elderberry spritzes and $2 mimosas. These deals last through the "end of summer."Meddlesome Moth
1621 Oak Lawn Ave. The Moth, as the cool kids say, has launched a summer social hour with $8 cocktails including a Moth marg, Meddlesome mule; get an Old Fashioned or Flew the Coop (Townes Vodka, Mathilde Peche, fresh-squeezed lemon and lime juice, champagne float) for $9. Or get them all. They also have $8 wine, $2-off all draft beers and a handful of small plates for $6 to $12. MoMo Italian
8989 Forest Lane MoMo Italian has added some new summer items to the menu, including an affogato martini. But starting July 9 families can get a free children's pasta with the purchase of two main courses (children 12 and under, valid Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday only). Also, starting July 7, MoMo will have happy hour on Sundays from open to close (in the bar area only), which includes $7 wine, cocktails starting at $6 and cheap bites. Quarter Bar
3301 McKinney Ave. The Quarter Bar has pretty good standard daily specials. On Mondays, for example, get $3 PBR and $5 Jameson and half off shared plates until 10 p.m. Thursday happy hour lasts til 9 p.m. and includes $6 Voodoo fries until 10 p.m. Let's go!

4270 Oak Lawn Ave. For the month of July, this Mediterranean hot spot will have a cold mezze platter for $12 (bar only), with a rotating chef's selection of goods that may include fattoush salad, yellow beets with red beet hummus, oregano and lebneh.Saint Valentine

2401 Henderson Ave. We recently wrote about Sfuzzi's all-you-can-eat pizza and pasta for $20 on Wednesdays. Order a pie and after you finish that one, you can order another. Same with pasta.
