When I went to visit the Villas Ash Creek for their open house (see Dallas Morning News article notice). I asked the Director of Sales, Sandy Warriner (phone number 214 599 9114), about recommend restaurants and shops to visit to get a feel for the neighborhood. She recommended:
Bonnie and Ruth's Café and Catering. This is a charming little place with sandwiches and entrees. The staff seemed friendly and I wish that I had time to try a bite (but, alas I was on the run... maybe next time).
Fat Daddy's. Looks like a good place. The parking lot was full.
Sergio's Jewelry. Great prices and friendly service according to Sandy.
Other places I saw nearby: Highland Park Cafeteria, Albertson Grocery Store, Block Busters, and the ever present Star Bucks.
