Regular City Council Meeting Minutes of October 2, 2001 Page 3 of 15
The Minutes of the Regular City Council meeting held on September 18, 2001
were approved as presented.
5 -B. Award of bid to Pipe -Co, Inc. for the construction of water line improvements in
Oak Hill Addition.
The FY 00 -01 CIP Budget provided for expansion of the Oak Lane water line
from the current two inches to eight inches to improve flow and fire protection to
the property owners within the Oak Hill Addition. Ten bids were received on
May 9, 2001, with Pipe -Con, Inc., being the lowest qualified bidder. $200,000
was allocated for the design and construction of this project in the FY 00 -01 CIP
(Utility Fund). The cost of design of the water line was $18,950. Staff
recommends that $92,587 be allocated to this project, plus $5,555.22 for project
contingencies for a total of $98,142.20.
5 -C. Approval of Change Order No. 1 to the South Carroll Avenue at F.M.
1709 /Brumlow at S.H. 26 contract with SRO General Contractors, Inc., for
construction of paving and water line improvements on South Carroll Avenue
along Oak Tree Estates.
The Council awarded the construction contract for Traffic Management Bond
Program (TMB) intersection improvements at South Carroll Avenue /F.M. 1709
and Brumlow Avenue /S.H. 26 on June 5, 2001, to SRO General Contractors, Inc.
That construction is now underway. The FY 99 -00 CIP also included
construction of half of the ultimate section for South Carroll Avenue along Oak
Tree Estates, and Cheatham & Associates was selected to prepare the construction
plans. Because this project partially overlaps the TMB project for South Carroll
at F.M. 1709, it is staff's recommendation that this project be combined by way of
change order to the TMB project. Considerable savings in both costs and time
will be realized by consolidating the two projects. Staff has reviewed the unit
price of the previously approved competitive bid to ensure reasonable costs for
each item. The proposed cost of the change order is $393,627.80. $400,000 is
available for this project from the FY 99 -00 Capital Improvements Program.
5 -D. Resolution No. 01 -064, a resolution directing the Zoning Board of Adjustment to
convene and conduct public hearings and proceedings, as necessary, relating to
the legal non - conforming use operating as a concrete production facility located at
1635 Brumlow and the amortization value of the legal non - conforming use rights.,
if any, relating to said property; and directing the Board to forward a report of
such findings to the City Council at the conclusion of its proceedings.
The resolution being considered for the amortization of the concrete batch plant
use on the property owned by Hanson Aggregate. The Zoning Board of
Adjustment of the City of Southlake is hereby directed to convene and conduct
such hearings as it deems necessary and appropriate, pursuant to Texas Law and
Regular City Council Meeting Minutes of October 2, 2001 Page 4 of 15
the requirements of Ordinance No. 480, as amended, the Southlake Municipal
Zoning Ordinance, to determine whether or not expedited compliance with the use
restrictions applicable to the zoning classifications now existing on the property
located at 1635 Brumlow should be made immediately effective to that property,
notwithstanding its legal non - conforming use status. The Board shall consider
comments and concerns of interested parties and shall make a determination as to
whether expedited compliance is necessary and appropriate at this time. If the
Board should find that expedited compliance is necessary, the Council will direct
the Board to convene and conduct such public hearings as are necessary under
Texas Law and the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance to determine the
unamortized value of the legal non - conforming use rights, if any, remaining in the
Hanson Aggregate facility located at 1635 Brumlow. In order to determine a
dollar value for any rights remaining that would be lost through expedited
compliance, the Board is directed to conduct such discovery, pursuant to its
authority under the Municipal Zoning Ordinance, to establish such value. The
Board shall, during the course of the hearing, afford the property owner the
opportunity to present any and all relevant and competent evidence that it believes
necessary and appropriate to demonstrate its unamortized value or interest in the
facility.
5 -E. Resolution No. 01 -063, Joint Agreement with the City of Colleyville for GIS
Services.
This resolution is intended to continue the arrangement that we currently share
one of our GIS analysts (Sunny Lindsey) with Colleyville two days per week.
This arrangement has worked well during the past two years with the positive
benefits expected to continue. The sharing of personnel reduces GIS - related costs
for Southlake while giving Colleyville access to the highly useful mapping
technology that GIS provides. Cost figures associated with the agreement are to
remain the same as the previous two -year period. Council approved this service
for one (1) year.
5 - F. Authorize the Mayor to execute a sanitary sewer easement on park property.

of Christmas Decor, has submitted new pricing for the upcoming year with a
5.6% increase. The contract includes installation and removal of lighting for the
Town Square parks, pavilion, street trees and Town Hall, as well as storage costs
for the year. Staff recommends approval of the contract in the amount of $28,987
plus a $1,000 contingency to replace burned -out light strands, for a total contract
amount of $29,987. When the contract was bid last year, three bids were received
with the next closest bid being $30,000 higher than Christmas Decor.

Avenue alignment and approvals from the franchise utility companies on the old
easements. The property owner is requesting that the validity of the plat be
extended until March 21, 2002, to allow more time to resolve these issues.
5 -I. Resolution No. 01 -062, Nominations to Board of Directors to the Tarrant
Appraisal District.
This resolution gives Council the opportunity to nominate a member to the Board

construct the trail in accordance with the Master Trail System along the north side
of West Dove Street and the west side of White Chapel Boulevard for the length

along White Chapel Boulevard, which will be built by the City as part of the
Traffic Management Bond Program. The estimated cost of the trail along White
Chapel Boulevard is $22,464. These funds will be used with the Traffic

of Lot 4 of the Simmons Addition and along the alignment of the platted new
Simmons Court. Construction of the new sanitary sewer line in Simmons
Addition is now complete and the sanitary sewer flow has been diverted to the
new sanitary sewer line on Lot 4. The developer is requesting that the City
abandon the unnecessary portion of the utility easement on Lot 4 of the Simmons
Addition so that Lot 4 can be developed for a residential structure and abandon
the utility easement that, generally, follows the alignment of Simmons Court.
10 -A. Approval of Agreement for Community Services with the Southlake Community

Ordinance No. 480 -375, 1 Reading (ZA01 -078), Rezoning on property described as Lot
10, Block 1, Southlake Estates, being 1.805 acres. Current zoning is "SF -1A" Single
Regular City Council Meeting Minutes of October 2, 2001 Page 12 of 15
Family Residential District with a requested zoning of "SF -30" Single Family Residential
District.
Senior Planner Dennis Killough presented Ordinance No. 480 -375, 1 Reading, noting
this property is located at the southeast corner of Shady Oaks Drive and Love Henry
Court; current zoning is "SF -1A." The applicant is requesting "SF -30" on the south 0.79
acres of the 1.85 acre lot. The purpose is to subdivide the lot to build a home for the
owners' son. The Planning and Zoning Commission approved the request (6 -0) vote on
August 23, 2001, subject to the Concept Plan Review. The City Council tabled this item
on September 4, and also on September 18, to allow the applicant to meet with neighbors
and investigate whether deed restrictions exist that would prohibit further subdivision of
the property. A SPIN meeting was held at Town Hall on September 12. The majority of
those present were not in favor of the request. The applicant provided staff with a copy
of the deed restrictions. Contrary to claims made during the City Council and SPIN
meetings, there are no apparent restrictions regarding lot size or further subdivision of
any lots within the subdivision. The request before Council would not appear to violate
the deed restrictions, according to staff.
Phyllis Benton, owner /applicant. Ms. Benton stated she has lived on the property for
seventeen years and feels now that they have sewer in the area, and with Highpoint
Estates on the west side of Shady Oaks Drive having smaller lots, she went to her
neighbors regarding her subdividing her lot, and they did not have a problem at that time.
PUBLIC COMMENTS:
Izak Gregory, 530 Love Henry Court, Southlake. Mr. Gregory commented that they were
not notified at the Planning and Zoning level and therefore it was not opposed. Once the
rest of the homeowners learned about it, they were opposed to the subdivision of the
property. He commended SPIN program and stated he feels it is a good source of
notification of meetings. He stated he is concerned with drainage, safety, and value of
the homes if they start dividing up the lots. He asked the City Council to take into
consideration the wishes of the other property owners in Southlake Estates, as there are
only ten lots.
Francis Nathan, 535 Love Henry Court, Southlake. He commented as he reads the deed
restrictions it says one family dwelling, one lot. Ten lots in the subdivision. He feels this
will set a precedent if Council allows this to happen.
Joann Fuller. Ms. Fuller stated she lives across the street from the lot and is extremely
opposed. She stated they bought because of the two -lot requirement in the addition. She
also cited traffic and safety issues across the road.
Kim Clancy, Alamo Court, Southlake. Ms. Clancy states she lives in Mission Hills
Addition, and asked if this were approved, what kind of precedent would this set?
Bob Hardy, 455 Love Henry Court, Southlake. Mr. Hardy stated he is opposed.

After discussions with the City Council regarding approval of this case, Ms. Benton
withdrew her request.
Agenda Item #8 -B, ZA01 -079, Plat Revision Lot 10, Block 1, Southlake Estates
ZA01 -079, Plat Revision on property legally described as Lot 10, Block 1, Southlake
Estates, being 1.8 acres.
The applicant withdrew this case.
Agenda Item #8 -C, Ordinance No. 4890 -379, 1 Reading (ZA01 -091)
Ordinance No. 480 -379, l Reading (ZA01 -091), Rezoning on property legally described
as Tracts 3E2A2, 3E2A4, 3E12, and 3E13, John Childress Heirs Survey, Abstract No.
254, being 1.19 acres. Current zoning is "AG" Agricultural District with a requested
zoning of "SF -1A" Single Family Residential District.
Senior Planner Dennis Killough stated this property is located at 3259 Lake Drive. The
applicant is requesting a zoning change from "AG" to "SF -1A" residential. The property
is located on a private ingress and egress easement rather than a public street. There are
several issues the applicant will need to address prior to issuance of a building permit.
The applicant has been informed of the following:
• The Subdivision Ordinance requires that all residential lots have frontage
on a public street. The property fronts on a private ingress /egress
easement extending off of Lake Drive. Currently, it exists as a dirt road.
Fire emergency vehicles must have access to the property and have area to
maneuver. Fire lanes shall be designed and maintained to support the
imposed loads of fire apparatus and shall be provided with a surface so as
to provide all- weather driving capabilities.
• Adequate water service is not available to the property. If the building
requires a fire sprinkler system or if a fire hydrant is required, the current
2" service line must be upgraded to 8 ". If access is more than 10 feet but
less than 24 feet wide, a fire hydrant is required within 800 feet of the
residence and an approved residential fire sprinkler system is required. If
a minimum 24 -foot wide access is provided, a fire hydrant is required
within 800 feet of the residence or an approved residential fire sprinkler
system is required. The existing water lines are too small and must be
updated to current standards and able to support any new hydrants.
• There is no sanitary sewer service extending to the property. The property
does have the minimum 1 -acre size for use of a septic system. However, a
permit must be obtained from the Tarrant County Health Department.
Regular City Council Meeting Minutes of October 2, 2001 Page 14 of 15
• A plat must be approved and either a public street meeting city standards
be provided or a variance be granted by the City Council.
The applicant has submitted a single -lot plat to the city staff for review. If the first
reading of this request is approved, it is anticipated that we will bring a variance request
for "street frontage" to the Council with the second reading. The Planning and Zoning
Commission recommended approval (6 -0) vote on September 6.
Warren Allen, 3259 Lake Drive, Southlake. Mr. Allen stated he is representing a
potential owner and builder. He stated the property is 470' from a fire hydrant to the
house and the Fire Marshal does not think this is a problem, but added, that he needs a 30
degree turning radius. The builders agree to put in a sprinkler system if needed. All of
the properties in the area back up to Corp. of Engineers property.
After discussion, it was agreed upon by Council that they need to have answers to all the
concerns at the second reading of the ordinance.
Motion was made to approve Ordinance No. 480 -379, 1 Reading (ZA01 -091).

Ref Proposed Zoning Change next to Villages ofTimarron and Rockenbaugh
Elementary School
Dear Mayor and City Council,
I am concerned about the above proposed zoning change due to the fact that two 2 -story
office buildings are planned next to an `elementary school and very near to my residence.
I, as well as other residents of Timarron, bought my home across from a park and vacant
land that was zoned single - family. Any two -story building on this site would have a
major negative impact on property values for us as, homeowners and citizens of Timarron.
It also causes safety and security concerns for our families and the students attending the
elementary school located adjacent to this property:
Strong consideration must be given to the homeowners when a zoning change is
proposed. I am not opposing the zoning change but want to restrict any development to
allow only one -story structures.
I have lived in the metroplex area for 22 years and am also a realtor with 17 years
experience. As such, I am naturally a proponent for growth and development in the right
manner and context. When I chose the great :city of Southlake as the place I wanted to
live and raise my children, ages 6 and 7, I believed, as a citizen, the city would help me
protect my family as well as my property value,
Please consider my request before making any commitments to the current proposed
developments. You may contact me at (972) 672-8536 if you have any questions.
T/ .n y ur fo our consideration,
Randy Swayer

Re: Commercial Development
Randy,
Based on the information given me, and a survey /plot plan of the proposed
commercial/office complex site across from your residence, there will be without a doubt,
a significant impact on the property values on your street. If these office buildings are 2-
story, instead of single story, that will create an even larger impact on your property
value. It does not matter that these buildings will be 400 feet away from your home. If
you look out your front door and are able to see a 2 -story office complex, it will cause a
negative impact on the value of your property.
From firsthand experience selling real estate in Southlake for 17 years, I can tell you this
will affect your property value in a very negative way. A prime example is 400
Parkwood Ct., Southlake, It took from 9/20/1999 to 8/31/2000 to sell this house. It was
on the market during a prime selling time in all of Northeast Tarrant County. It was
listed at $355,000 and sold at $320. This home is in the Timarron neighborhood
across Byron Nelsen Parkway from your home. It is on a corner lot across the street from
vacant land for future commercial/office development and the Southlake Senior Citizens
Center.
•
The City of Southlake, to protect it's tax paying citizens, should make the Planning and
Zoning Commission restrict the office buildings to be built in this proposed site to only 1
story office buildings, just like they did at The Courtyard at Timarron. Your
neighborhood and property values need to be protected. The City of Southlake and the
Planning and Zoning Commission protected the homeowners i Bent Creek,AdditionT
They should do the same for you and all the other homeowners your netg or 00

Dear Mr. Stacy:
The terms of service for our five members of the Board of Directors will expire on
December 31, 2001 and it is time to begin the process of conducting an election.
Based on the amount of the 2000 adjusted tax levy imposed by each eligible taxing unit,
we have calculated the number of votes for your entity. The enclosed list will provide you with
that information.
The next step in the procedure is the nomination of candidates. Each voting unit may
nominate one candidate for each of the five positions to be filled. You are not required to make
any nomination or you may nominate any number up to five. The County Tax Assessor /Collector
is a non - voting member of the Board of Directors by law.
In order to be eligible to serve as directors, the nominees must have resided in the Tarrant
Appraisal District for at least two years prior to January 1, 2002. They may serve on the
governing body of a taxing unit in the Tarrant Appraisal District and still be eligible to serve as a
Director. However, an employee of a taxing unit is prohibited from serving as a Director unless
that employee is also an elected official of the governing body. A Director may not be related to a
person who is in the business of appraising property for property tax purposes or represents
property owners in proceedings in the appraisal district or who is employed by the appraisal
district. A person is ineligible to serve as a director if he, or a business in which he has a
substantial interest, enters into a contract with the appraisal district or enters into a contract with
a taxing unit in the district, if that contract relates to the performance of an activity governed by
Title I of the Texas Property Tax Code (for example, appraising property for tax purposes or
determining eligibility for exemptions). A substantial interest exists where the person and spouse
have a combined ownership of at least 10% of the voting stock or shares of a business, or
Letter to Taxing Units

The City of Southlake (see Appendix A for city location information), Department of Economic
Development, prepared, distributed and tallied a survey of its citizens regarding various aspects

• Update demographic data of interest to restaurant site selectors
• Analyze existing dining habits and desires of current residents
• Identify food types desired by citizens

the city) 607 businesses, and 518 to post office box holders. The total number of surveys
distributed was 7,476. The surveys were printed with return postage guaranteed.
The survey response was outstanding with a grand total of 988 responses for a 13% response
return rate. For the purposes of this report, only the responses received from Southlake residents
are tallied. A total of 811 resident surveys were returned for an 11% response rate.

IL 1 SURVEY DESIGN AND DISTRIBUTION
SOUt Southlake, Texas Restaurant Report
The City of Southlake (see Appendix A for city location information) Department of Economic
Development, prepared, distributed and tallied a survey of its citizens regarding various aspects
of dining outside the home. The overall goal of the survey effort was to attract and facilitate the
continued development of diverse dining opportunities in the city. Objectives of the survey
included the following:
OBJECTIVES
• Update demographic data of interest to restaurant site selectors
• Analyze existing dining habits and desires of current residents
• Identify food types desired by citizens
• Identify particular restaurants desired by citizens
• Provide brokers, developers, and restaurant site selectors with findings of the survey
The survey was designed with feedback from major developers and brokers in the Southlake
market to ensure that the collected data would merge with the standards in use by the restaurant
industry (See Appendix B for sample survey). The survey was a single, two -sided page with
return address included in the folded format.
The City's newsletter was utilized for the primary distribution of the survey. In August 2000, a
total of nearly 7,500 surveys were distributed to approximately 6,381 residences (every home in
the city), 607 businesses, and 518 to post office box holders. The surveys were printed with
return postage guaranteed.
The survey response was outstanding with a grand total of 988 responses for a 13% response
return rate. For the purposes of this report, only the responses received from Southlake residents
are tallied. A total of 808 resident surveys were returned for a 11% response rate
METHODOLOGY
Each survey was numbered for tracking purposes, and the data was coded to a database through
the labor of departmental interns, volunteers, and Teen Court workers. Data entry spanned over
three months with over 250 hours logged.
Using Excel, the data was used to generate desired statistics regarding household demographics
and general frequency information. The various outputs were formatted into a Word document
with both an Executive Summary of four pages and a complete summary. The complete
Restaurant Report contains summaries of all data as well as detailed lists of all comments
received.

APPENDIX A LOCATION SUMMARY
L A
JoutrilaNe Southlake, Texas Restaurant Report
Southlake, Texas Location Overview
Southlake, Texas is situated in the heart of the Dallas -Fort Worth Metroplex. The city is located
along State Highway 114, midway between D -FW International Airport and Alliance Business
Park/Airport. Southlake experienced the highest residential growth rate in Tarrant County from
1990 - 2000. This tremendous residential growth can be attributed to excellent school districts,
high quality of life, environmental assets, and easy commutes. Current commercial growth
involves the construction of corporate campuses, such as Sabre, and extensive retail development
along the regional roadway system to include the nationally recognized Southlake Town Square
development. Improvements are underway on State Highway 114 through the City, and public
infrastructure is being extended to accommodate continued growth along the City's major
corridors.

Southlake, Texas Restaurant Report
GENERAL COMMENTS
A breakfast/ lunch place would be nice.
A casual restaurant/sports /grill in Town Square were the guys could hang out while the women shop. It needs TVs but also
needs to be a place where you can bring the kids - maybe with two sides - one bar and the other restaurant
A combination of family friendly and mid - upscale restaurants would be nice. Atmospheres as important as the food quality.
A common discussion among Southlake residents is that we need a good sporting goods store like Oshmans in the immediate
area. Were forced to go to North Richland Hills or Lewisville or Grapevine Mills (sports auth.) for general sporting good needs.
A family restaurant with a friendly, cozy atmosphere.
A full service restaurant that is friendly. A play area would be great!
A good Deli. - High Class would be great.
A good, gourmet restaurant (good wine list). A good Italian restaurant
A jazz restaurant would be great.
A place with good take home food is needed.
A restaurant area similar to the McKinney area would be great.
A variety of choices will be the key.
Additional Restaurants: Snuffers, Greenville Ave at Midway Rd; Beau Nash at The Crescent, McKinney Ave; Sam's Cafe at The
Crescent, McKinney Ave; La Madeleine, Dallas; Patrizio's, Highland Park Village; Benedict's, Addison; Sullivan's, Plano;
McGuire's, Plano
All Dallas - we are sadly lacking fine intimate restaurants. Everything is a chain restaurant. Also, why do we not have a "Whole
Foods" grocery?
All home owned and operated restaurants are better! You can go to any of the franchises (e.g. Olive Garden, etc.). Armend's
seems to be a home owned place. Should be encouraged.
All the other places are too far. Addison has the best selection but its too far.
Also need outdoor cafe /grill type restaurant
Another intimate, up scale restaurant (style of classic cafe) but different cuisine would be welcomed by adult diners who rarely
bring young children with them. .
Another nice restaurant like Classic Cafe would be nice. We would like to see more restaurants and still maintain the quality
infrastructure that we have in Southlake.
Any non chain specialty restaurant
Any upscale, nice restaurants. We have enough fast food rest. We also need hangout type rest for our teens, food and fun places.
Anyone opening up a clean restaurant with good home cooked (family) meal would in my opinion do well in the Southlake area.
Anything added is fine. Just please add some!
Anything in Southlake seems pricey.
•
Anything that's not a chain - more upscale restaurants needed (like Classic Cafe).
Barbecue family restaurant on lake or with lake view, like Grist Mill in Gruene, with live music and trees.
Big Fish, Little Fish
Breakfast at a full service restaurant is not available at the times we would most likely want service, i.e. brunch or after midnight.
Breakfast is my favorite meal to eat out, however none are close by.
Breakfast other than fast food. Sit down type restaurant that offers healthy type foods.
Breakfast type cafes needed.
Brick's Pizza serves white and seafood pizza.

Bring Star Canyon to Southlake.
California has a number of "fresh" Mexican restaurants that are excellent... don't remember names, but there is one in the
Laguna Hills, Laguna Nigrial, that sounds like "Baja Fresh ".
Chain restaurant are redundant and boring. Kirby's has a bad attitude towards customers.
Chicken Fried Steak!! - Like Masseys; Black Eyed Pea is also good. BBQ - good of smoked - like Angelos.
Chili's burn out after 3 years for lunch / 114 E traffic to Grapevine & back is busy / Need a restaurant row before CP's move here.
Chucks needs competition for good burgers. Chips is a great place. We also need more breakfast options, how about Original
Pancake House? Bubba's by SMU would do well up here.
City of Dallas - Love Field area for business lunches; also Plano for business. / We aren't home to eat out here in the daytime.
Close by with lots of choices.
Combination of food and entertainment.
Contact PB &J Restaurants in Kansas City about opening one of their restaurants in SL. Owners are Bill Crooks and Paul
Khouny. Restaurants include Yia Yia's, Yahooz, Grand Street Cafe, and Paulo & Bill.
Could use another (Jason's Deli) close by in Southlake, Grapevine is always packed and great for families! Please consider a
Taco Cabana. It's a fast food restaurant with a full service feel to it. It's got great food and is affordable for families.
Currently too many chain restaurants & fast food places, need to have more unique and upscale restaurants & sports bar & grills.
Dallas and Fort Worth are too far to drive except for special occasions 2 -3 times per year.
Do not make Southlake a restaurant row of chains like Grapevine.
Do not turn Southlake into Restaurant Row. If we want a nice meal out we always go to Dallas for an unhurried upscale meal.
Don't want too much commercial build up
Don't get all the way to Dallas or Fort Worth very often.
Downtown Fort Worth restaurants, Del Frisco's and Reata are favorites.
Drive thru's are a plus - even for bagel store. Helpful if you have small children and do not want to get out
Easy to get to; take out.
Everywhere are restaurants we don't need any more.
Family - any kind.
Family oriented - no theme - just good food and good service at a good price. Take reservations. Good salad bar like Steak n'
Ale or Ruby Tuesdays!
For fast food — Polio Fiesta Carrollton.
Generally, Southlake /Grapevine is a "chain" area. We need nice multicultural dining opportunity not national chain restaurant.
Get anything more than Mac, Taco Bell,...UH!!!
Go to Grapevine due to proximity to Southlake.
Go to Grapevine most because close.
Good food, nice setting, not a chain. There are too many "chain" restaurants that are not good.
Good Indian restaurant.
Gourmet/privately owned restaurants as well. Would like very much to see five star restaurants, and not so much of the "chain"
types of restaurants.. Especially the fast food places should be very limited.

Southlake, Texas Restaurant Report
Grapevine certainly covers the chains; perhaps we could attract some purveyors, who simply provide good food, not necessarily
family oriented nor common! Thank you.
Grapevine closeness to home, Addison closeness to office, and North Dallas for midway between friends.
Grapevine has a nice selection of chain restaurants. We prefer Southlake to have more family owned/specialty restaurants. Like
the Classic Cafe.
Grapevine overall; however, choice and affordability are not the same.
Grapevine seems to get every restaurant - Southlake needs their City Council!!
Hard to eat out and avoid carbo loading on breaded /fried food. Lunch is my main meal.
Haven't lived here long enough to explore other areas
Hey - when will we be able to buy wine (package) in Southlake? Why should Grapevine get my $$!?
High -end seafood and Italian restaurants. Non chain preferably.
Hooters! (seriously)!
Hopefully Town Square will attract additional restaurants; fine dining - not fast food!
Houston's - the best
Houston's Restaurant in Dallas would be a great type of eatery or PF Chang's!
I am glad you are doing this survey. I have money to spend and am too busy to cook. Southlake desperately needs more
restaurants, especially the full- service type.
I am happy with what we have.
I checked Addison based on my understanding of its restaurant statistics, but we most frequent Grapevine.
I don't like to drive too far to eat out.
I have not frequented the other areas marked.
I know we live in Texas but Houston has a very international flavor. I'd like to see some more in Southlake
I live in a rural area of Wise County and Grapevine is the closest. Also on the way to /from DFW Airport.
I live in Plano (work in SL). Southlake needs to build up a restaurant row to help separate themselves from Grapevine.
I realize some of these restaurants are fairly close; but Southlake has more than enough dry cleaners, banks. Seems to support
them but nothing but extremely expensive restaurants & fast food! We need restaurants that are moderately priced for families.
I really think Cracker Barrel & Red Lobster would do well here. A nice Dairy Queen would do well in the Town Square - the
DQ on 114 on Kimball is very small and difficult to get to.
I really wish Southlake had more to offer - we would like to keep tax dollars here.
I think Southlake needs more places to eat - especially fast food for families on the go during the school year. I know lots of
families that eat on the run it wold help to have more variety. We like to go out to eat full service on weekends.
I work at Sabre. The travel problem on 114 really prevents wanting to get out and spend money because of the hassles involved.
I would hate to have a restaurant row.
I would like to see more full service restaurants such as Chili's, Black -eyed Pea, Fridays, etc...
I would like to see some restaurant besides Italian or Mexican or get another cafe. If I eat out, it needs to be something I
wouldn't cook at home. Eating out needs to be a special event.
I would like to see Southlake remain different than other cities. Lots of smaller quaint places verses a bunch of large chain
places.
I would love to have a couple of nice restaurants but we do not need to go crazy using every inch of green earth to make money
or help us save taxes. If we had 3 new ones we would still give the surrounding areas competition.
I would prefer individually owned restaurants. Not just a franchise in a chain. I will not eat in them. Schlotzskys is NOT a deli.

I'd like to see a Mexican restaurant that has more seating and variety on their menu. I would like to open a Johnny Rockets in
Town Square, the atmosphere fits well with Town Square.
I'd like to see a nice lunch place - soups, salads, and quiche.
If Houston's were to come to Grapevine it would be the envy of all Tarrant County.
Irving area has quality Indian, Chinese, Thai, and American restaurants. I would appreciate similar set -up of restaurants.
It should be unique, Please no more chains!
It would be nice to have a restaurant that is a step above fast food but less than a Classic Cafe.
It would be nice to have more independent restaurants - less chains... especially for breakfast.
It's too far to go to these other places regularly -only on special occasions.
Its handy - Sundance/West End, but seldom go out due to location.
Jason's deli in Grapevine is best menu prices, variety, (healthy choice), and food for family in the area. Love the ice cream.
Keep away from chain restaurants. Offer distinction, variety, and quality! Not exactly what is Dallas and NOT Fort Worth.
Make Southlake its own personality - like diversity in choices - not just Mexican and BBQ Texas!
Keep Kirby's - Best steakhouse around; Change Southlake wine sale laws so good grocery stores will come like Eatzis in Dallas
and Central Market (Owned by HEB) in San Antonio or Whole Foods in Austin.
Kid friendly restaurant with a kid menu.
Kirby's has been a wonderful, convenient addition.
Kirby's need valet parking. Need Mexican restaurant that serves real margaritas. Mi Cocina is great but needs more room as
well. Existing restaurants are too small and can't get in. Long waits w/o proper areas to wait (large bars) drive us out of SL.
Less chain more individual. French restaurant, more upscale and quieter. Kirby's has good food but the acoustics are horrible
and with the music unbearable.
Less chain restaurants.
Lets go to Grapevine for fast food and bring in some more interesting choices to bring our children to, or enjoy a Fri or Sat night
with friends. Please no more McDonalds, Wendys, Taco Bell!
Lewisville.
Like restaurants that are not chains.
Location.
Looking for upscale restaurant fitting Southlake, not chains.
Love Indian food.
Love Solana brunch.
Love Sushi Sam's; Mimi's my favorite restaurant; glad to see I -HOP coming.
Love to have some family orient restaurants that aren't just drive throughs.
Make sure fast food franchises have play areas or the kids won't go. / We would love to see a Bueno Bueno here. They make
everything fresh daily. We spoke to the owner years ago about bringing one to TX, and he seemed interested.
Making available a range of inexpensive to moderately expensive restaurants that are not in Grapevine would increase the
income to our area. Giving people the choice of Southlake or Grapevine for dining! Spreading the fast food places out may even
be a good decision.
Mercury, Ziziki, Cheesecake, Nicholinas.
Moderate to expensive, moderately formal, moderate price, not too casual.
More diner type of restaurants. Southlake has enough fast food types.
More family oriented restaurants.

More heart healthy places!
More home -style restaurants.
More Mexican food!!!! Get Mercado Juarez.
More mid -price range choices.
More mom and pop owned restaurants than big chains, as in Grapevine (way overdone).
More mom and pop restaurants, less chains.
More of all types.
More patio dining. Less fast food restaurants.
More private rest. Not chains. Town Square should be courting chef Steven Pyles. Any restaurant he puts in there would be a
success.
More rest. On par with Classic Cafe with lunches — Cheze Girad, Les Saisons, Ruggens, Bugatti's, etc., Star Canyon.
More unique restaurants are needed. Unique in setting, ownership- not necessarily unique food.
More unique, non -chain restaurants.
More upscale restaurants (like Kirby's) More breakfast (for business meetings).
My wife and I do not want or need a movie theater or mall in beautiful Southlake, let's keep our town quaint and un- -
industrialized. We hope Southlake retains its country like charm and look.
Need "non- chain" independent burger place. Southlake is too planned! You'll end up like the failed Plano suburb. More
independent owner /operators needed to give you character.
Need a creme -de -la -creme daycare, there is one in Plano, money is not a problem quality is.
Need a good business lunch place -good food, med. price, quiet setting with private rooms for groups. Need more after work
type places. We have a group of 6 -20 that like to meet occasionally for drinks & appetizers. We are VERY tired of Chili's!
Need a really good family deli or cafe. Gourmet ready to eat
Need an Indian restaurant
Need more fancy/ upscale restaurants for special occasions _
Need more food variety for Solana area!!
Need more home delivery.
Need more live venues (blues or Jazzy perhaps!).
Need more local independents such as Lombardi Mare and Blue Mesa.
Need more Mexican and Chinese choices
Need more mom and pop type places, less fast food and chain restaurants. Need one good breakfast place.
Need more non chain restaurants
•
Need more, nicer upscale places to dine.
Need non -chain casual dining - 11 of the alone run by PB &J corporations are excellent examples.
Need outdoor restaurants, patios, and courtyards to dine out on. Need to make Southlake unique - not a "chain city" where you
don't know where a town begins or ends. Keep existing trees and bike trails.
Need some competition for Luby's. Would like to see some nutritious take outs - After work, we prefer "To Go" but not
traditional fast food places. Southlake definitely needs a BBQ place — Texas Style!
Need some fun places for teens to gather after football, soccer, and basketball games! Fun atmosphere, good music, serves
hamburgers, chicken sandwiches, salads, pizza, etc.

Need to bring more West Coast restaurants to this area - more health conscious
New people here want more sit down family restaurants, better than fast food more like Rockfish but no bar scene. Etc.
New to DFW - not familiar with any but Grapevine and Sundance Square.
New to the area. Both working people work outside the Southlake area.
New to the area. Like it so far.
Nicer restaurants; more like Classic Cafe and Rockfish.
No chain food restaurants. More specialty. Individually owned, not corporate.
No chain food, lets make Southlake unique.
No chains - we like unique locally owned.
No good Chinese and Thai restaurants. Waiting time is too long at lunch.
No more chains please.
No more CICI's, Fast foods, no Buffets. Add some classic restaurants as well like Morton's, Ruth Chris.
No more Fast Food restaurants. Upscale places with outdoor patios. A good breakfast place.
No more Fast Food!
No more fast foods.
No more Mexican, we have plenty already, and no more fast food franchises, and more outdoor cafes or grills.
No more.
No need to go any further than Grapevine.
No need to increase the number of restaurants in Southlake. We use them when we are out doing something /running errands,
but we would not just go out to eat because the are there. Having local restaurants is a very low priority.
Not Chinese and burritos only. I am Caucasian/European. Our food is good too. We long for breakfast/lunch place where we
can buy decent coffee, not assembly line like Starbucks, not weak like La Madeline. Fresh baked bread, conversation, &
newspaper.
Not over - priced stuffy restaurants! Just regular, comfortable. Rockfish is good. Mi Cocina is good. Classic Cafe is not.
SkillMan Wok.
Nothing the Metroplex has to offer compares to Addison.
Obviously made up by someone who doesn't know much about Arlington (fun city USA, baseball, Six Flags, and restaurants
galore) or Fort Worth.
On balance, food prices, service etc. We always end up going back to Steak and Ale, they have the best salad bar, baked
potatoes and martinis. Kirbys is fine but the price differential eliminates frequent visits.
On the whole we are looking for non -chain restaurants plus good delis.
Only go to Grapevine because we are very busy and don't have time to travel far to get something to eat.
Other desired restaurants: TGI Friday's, On The Border, Steak N Ale, Red Lobster.
Others too far.
Our area seems to be enriched with a lot of families. Making the space we have available to our families will increase people's
view on how valuable our city is with its commitment to families!
Our family really enjoys Mi Cocina (Mexican) and Rockfish (seafood), currently in Southlake Town Center. Chinese place in
there is terrible!! New Chinese restaurant on Southlake Blvd is over priced and food is fair.
Our family would enjoy a greater choice of upscale restaurants in the area so that we wouldn't need to drive into Dallas every
weekend.
Our family would support good sit -down restaurants of any type!! -

Please - -- No more fast food restaurants.
Please attract more innovative rest. instead of big national chains found in all suburbs.
Please check into a Cheesecake Factory, a Shogun, and a good Chinese buffet. Also interested in getting a Container Store to
this area!
Please don't ruin the area with more chain -types! Desired: someplace for Sunday breakfast before 11:00 am.
Please encourage more neighborhood and unique restaurants instead of Grapevine style "big box" chains.
Please fix the roads so it's easier to get around SL and spend my $$.
Please have some nice unique upscale type restaurants. NO MORE CHAINS! (Except Eatzis). NO MORE FAST FOODS!!
Please no more chain food!
Please no more chains! We need to attract some real chefs to the area. Classic Cafe is not enough!
Please no more fast food. Only quality restaurants. We go to Grapevine for fast food or lower end (Denny's, etc.). Fort
Worth's Redentos — nice theme steakhouse - they are growing and would probably come here!
Prefer family owned restaurants rather than chains.
Prefer jazz club.
Put restaurants on Southlake Blvd.
Really need some Italian restaurants of excellent quality and atmosphere. An upscale seafood restaurant needed.
Reasonably priced food.
Restaurants other than seafood that have full service and play area's for small children (like Joe's Crab Shack) Play area that
can be seen by parents while they enjoy their meal.
Sabre Employee
Should have done frequency monthly.
Southlake needs more "oriental" selections.
Some place single parents can hang out waiting to pick up the kids!!
Something other than a chain where the taste is authentic style.
Soup or Salad, not a franchise period. I e- mailed them about franchise opportunity - they responded not a franchise
opportunity.
Southlake has a lot of diverse people with upscale needs.
Southlake has many families and children - how about some inexpensive ice cream - frozen yogurt shops. Also, how about a
pizza restaurant that can accommodate large groups in a meeting room, I.e. Mazo's.
Southlake is sorely lacking in quality restaurants. •
Southlake need more of all types of restaurants that are good, family oriented, and good price.
Southlake needs a cafe /diner; not fancy, just a place to eat, home cooking, and visit with friends, or just have coffee & dessert
Southlake needs a casual restaurant where families can gather. The restaurant needs to be reasonably priced and have games
for kids. Beer and wine should be available, maybe TVs and pool tables. This would be a great place for soccer parties etc.
Southlake needs a good, reasonably priced steakhouse, like Steak -N -Ale or an unreasonably priced great steakhouse like Del
Friscos or Ruth Chris. The new Kirby's was a disappointment - very high prices for so -so food.
Southlake needs a gourmet food store like Rice /Epicurean in Houston. / Bugaboo Creek is great for families - very "theme" -
taking and moving animals, etc. / Round Table Pizza has fantastic pizza - they deliver.
Southlake needs a variety of restaurants; a good combination of family friendly and upscale. The food must be reasonably
priced and very good. Needs a great atmosphere.
Southlake needs casual bar /meeting place type establishments, and a place where one can go to have a good quality, cold beer
with his dinner. A fun atmosphere.

Southlake needs CiCi's Pizza, Luby's, and a big Chinese buffet, probably a Japanese buffet and Wendy's would make
Southlake the top choice and magnet of big mouths.
Southlake needs more sit -down restaurants.
Southlake seems to be having trouble drawing anything other than fast food restaurants. In my opinion this came about
because we were not aggressive. I watch Grapevine getting many restaurants and it is very disturbing knowing we have the
ability to provide just as much.
Southlake should get started, we have been a day late and a dollar short. Be more aggressive, Grapevine is getting
everything.
Southlake Town Center - Mi Cocina, Rockfish. Keller - Up in Smoke. CiCi's Southlake.
Sports bar - big screen TV's with no smoking!!! We prefer restaurants where you can shop or site see afterwards - - --
downtown Southlake is nice but needs a TGI Fridays type rest. Rockfish is great, but too small and always crowded.
Sports Bars.
Still haven't found a good seafood restaurant.
Strongly prefer family -run over chain restaurants. We'd love it if there was good ethnic food in SL - I'd never go to Dallas for
dinner again!
Sundance Square offers nice mix of upscale and casual meeting/eating places with good beer selection and entertainment.. . -
Table cloth restaurants!
Thank you for asking.
Thank you for caring enough to inquire.
Thanks for asking for our opinions. Were looking forward to hearing the results.
Thanks for asking!
Thanks for asking! Good luck!!
Thanks for helping track more restaurants to Southlake! We need them - the ones we have are great but way too crowded!
Thanks to Kirbys for opening in Southlake.
The lack of good restaurants is one of the most frustrating things about the Southlake (114) corridor.
The restaurant issue is one of our biggest disappointments in Southlake. I'm tired of spending my money in Grapevine (at
marginal restaurants). Town Square should offer more options — Celebrity Cafe and Magianno's would be great in there.
The restaurants coming into Southlake are generally overpriced for the quality of food - we get better food for the same or
less money in Grapevine. Chains are fine - they seem to be more stable.
The town square has a good mix of different ethnic foods and isn't too heavy on national chain restaurants. Continue to
expand the variety with a focus on "local" restaurants.
There are enough BBQ restaurants in the area. We NEVER go to Indian, Japanese, Mexican, or Thai restaurants.
These choices are for full service dinner. For lunch or family dinners, the best choices are Corner Bakery, Chili's, or CiCi's...
Already available in Southlake, Grapevine.
They all have the same restaurants.
This depends partially on whether my husband and I are having a "date" or we're going out with our 3 children age's 2 -5.
This list is all east of Southlake. Please remember that many of us do live in Fort Worth
This seems to be the only community to have business types of bakeries. However, to have the choice close at hand where
travel is limited would be ideal.
Though we frequent fast food place in Southlake for our kids, we would like to see more full service restaurants here in town.
Tired of chain restaurants want more specialty /creative cooking.
Tired of chains in Grapevine - they have mediocre food, too noisy, lines to long - prefer independently owned restaurant with
interesting and unique names.
Too many fast food and chain rest. takes away from what could be a quaint and unique town. Would like to see more unique
cafes and restaurants. Also, Southlake desperately needs a nice, upscale sports bar and grill.

Too many fast food places.
Too many people, not enough restaurants creating long waits and some short tempers!
Too much emphasis on high -end restaurants in Southlake, need more "family" or mid priced restaurants since many new
residents are young families.
Traffic is awful - will not drive to any of these places.
Uncle Julio's would be a gold mine in SL.
Unique one of a kind restaurants like the ones already here. Stay away from "chains" like Don Pablos, Chili's etc. More
upscale restaurants are preferable.
Unique, Casual, No Chains!
Upscale Italian or upscale steak would probably benefit Southlake the most. Chain restaurants can be found in Grapevine and
elsewhere.
Variety is what is missing in Grapevine /Southlake.
Variety of privately owned (non -chain rest.)
Walnut Hill & 35.
Want family places with eating areas outside, great service, and great food.
Want small, Italian restaurant — family atmosphere with red checked tablecloths - NOT northern Italian; quaint - NOT like
Macaroni Grill.
We also enjoy innovative food such as Mediterraneo and The Green Room serves. Southlake can support more upscale
dining establishments as there is quite a capacity of nicer dining options in the area.
We are glad to see the choices in the Grapevine /Southlake area.
We are hard pressed to find a true bakery that bakes bread, bagels, cookies, and cakes. It just doesn't exist. Also the produce
in supermarkets Is plain awful.
We are new here - not familiar with these areas.
We are overloaded with fast food chains, enough already. Let's bring in some family restaurants with moderate prices and
maybe some upscale unique restaurants. Let's not duplicate Grapevine's restaurant rave. You would draw a quick clientele
with my list.
We are permanent residents of Southlake.
We are sick of food chain rows (Chili's, Fridays, etc) and like one of a kind upscale restaurants and tired of spending money
for mediocrity.
We can not afford to eat out - maybe once or twice a year - special occasion only, anniversary or birthday
We consistently have to wait to be seated in the Southlake area.
We definitely need more places to eat in Southlake!
We desperately need a 50s -theme restaurant — burger /malt shop with good take -out. Sports bar /restaurant (i.e. Champs or CB
& Potts - beautiful restaurant in Littleton Colorado)
We didn't move here to see it become so commercial! We moved from Bedford in part because of too many retail,
restaurants, etc. Prefer to drive to Grapevine or further to eat out, PLEASE! New restaurants should be small individual
types -no more chains!
We do not need any more fast food restaurants. Thanks for working hard to make Southlake a great place to live.
We do not need more upscale restaurants. Young families need "family friendly" restaurants, but not Denny's.
We do not need that Tomain Bar called a Sushi Cafe, get rid of it.
We don't eat fast food period. We look for rest that use fresh ingredients of good quality and are clean. We'd eat out more if
we had places that fit these criteria.
We don't go to Dallas to eat out!
We don't need any more fast food! Bring in Whole Foods!
We don't need anymore fast food!

We drive all the way to Beltline in Addison just to eat at Houston's restaurant.
We eat at Rockfish -which we enjoy. Grapevine restaurants are boring.
We frequent the Grapevine restaurants because they are close and because we prefer spending money close to Southlake.
We frequently drive to these locations on Friday /Saturday night for the restaurants.
We generally stay close to Southlake. It would be great to have more choices closer to home.
We go all over, not by choice of area, but by specific restaurants.
We go to Grapevine frequently 5 -7 persons each time.
We go to Grapevine the most.
We have a family - don't want to go all the way to Dallas or Fort Worth.
We have always preferred the "independent" restaurants. There are too many franchises in this area. When dining out by
ourselves or with out -of -town guests we want to treat them to something unique that they can't experience in their own home.
We have evening meal at full service restaurant about two times a month, we are planning on starting to eat out more
frequently in October when our second child is born and would welcome more restaurant choices closer to home.
We have lots of lunching ladies and not enough light lunch spots. Southlake alone has probably 1000+ tennis players who
lunch frequently and many other teams who come in during the week.
We have more than enough fast food restaurants. I would like to see some moderately priced sit down restaurants. Personal
favorites include Mimi's, Olive Garden, and Cozymel.
We have small children and often we are unable to eat in the restaurant (kids act up!). We would love more restaurants that
DELIVER or at a minimum do carryout.
We have very little use for more fast food restaurants.
We like to say close to home if we can. WE used to go to HEB area a lot, but find ourselves closer to home now with all the
variety of restaurants.
We like to stick close to home. A couple times a year we go to Dallas or Fort Worth.
We like to visit family in small non -chain restaurants. (Places that every other town does not have) We visit Armend's and
Bak's Chicken often. These places are unique and friendly and we like to give our business to local owners.
We lived in Dallas 30 years - when we entertain or go out for dinner we go to Dallas - Southlake is too bland - boring - all
Southlake is interested in is Wal -Mart, Home Depot, Chick - Fill -A , etc. 7 yrs ago when we moved here - we were excited -
now we're not.
We moved to Southlake because we desire to see trees, green space, fewer cars, roads, retail est., and restaurants. If eating
out/restaurants were a desire /priority in our lives, we would still live in Dallas. We desire no more restaurants /retail est.
We need a Chinese buffet.
We need a Chuck's Hamburger -type place, affordable, where teens can gather to hang out with friends, preferably in the
Town Square area. There's a neat hamburger joint in Addison, with a 50s theme. One of our favorites, the Classic Cafe, is
already here!
We need a good breakfast/brunch restaurant in the area. We would probably dine out more often in Southlake if there were
more restaurants. The addition of Town Square has helped.
We need a good hamburger restaurant. Please do not get any chains in our town. DFW is saturated with chains our city does
not need them
We need a reasonable fish place in Southlake! Overloaded with pizza places and Mexican rest. Here and in Grapevine.
Would love to see Long John's Silver or Catfish Company.
We need at Least one restaurant that sells Mexican food that is not "Tex -Mex ". The flavor is very different.
We need family style restaurants with flexible seating and broad menu. We need restaurants that can accommodate sports
teams for awards get togethers. Good breakfast restaurant, upscale bakery. Ladies tearoom would be great. Outdoors seating.
We need good food to pick up on the way home from work. Am not in favor of more fast food restaurants. Southlake is a
community that should attract small business restaurant entrepreneurs lets not turn this into Grapevine, which is 90% chain
restaurants.

Southlake, Texas Restaurant Report
We need less big chains and more special place. Not big money!!!
We need more breakfast options - Original Pancake House
We need more eating facilities! Please! Please! Please!
We need more elite spots - for couples. Everyone leaves the area - not a chain. Unique - live band.
We need more family oriented restaurants. Places that have pizza, pasta, burgers, salads, beer, wine, with good games for the
kids. More upscale than CiCi's!
We need more family restaurants
We need more in Keller and Southlake, especially Luby's cafeteria and Braums. (Maybe a Catfish King too) Burger King
needs better meat and better cooks.
We need more moderate priced family restaurants - Southlake is full of very busy people who eat out a lot. Good healthy
gourmet take out like Eatzi's would do very well here.
We need more places with bar /pub areas that can offer live entertainment and dining (ex: Cool River, Humperdinks, and
Willhoite's).
We need more variety in sit down restaurant choices. We need radical improvement in Italian/pizza choices.
We need nice quiet dinner spots with quality entertainment.
We need restaurants and fast food places at Solana. There's little to choose from unless you drive 10 minutes to get there.
We need some reasonably priced sit down restaurants in Southlake. We don't need anymore Fast Food restaurants.
We never go to Dallas, and rarely to Fort Worth.
We prefer Grapevine on the way home from work. We go to Sundance and McKinney when we go to the theater and
symphony.
We prefer independents to national chains. Although there are a tremendous # of restaurants in the area we find ourselves
travelling to other hours where Local, independent, Mom & Pop type restaurants are located
We prefer non -chain restaurants.
We rarely go out to eat in Dallas or Fort Worth. Have 2 small children so want to stay close to home
We really need mid -range (cost) family type restaurants where you can go with your family. Too many fast food restaurants _
and upper end. No nice family oriented. We also need a full service breakfast place. IHOP will not be enough and is too
sterile.
We spend a lot of money dining out. We would love to do it in Southlake.
We think there are enough fast food restaurants. We need more establishments like Sushi Sam and Thai Chili, upscale but
reasonably ethnic cuisine.
We usually frequent Grapevine and Sundance Square. The Knox/Henderson area is neat, but we usually don't go that far.
Babysitting gets too expensive.
We want non -chain type restaurants with more style. We can go to Grapevine for chains. Price wouldn't be an issue in SL.
We would eat breakfast out more often if there were more convenient, local locations (Southlake).
We would like to see more moderately priced casual restaurants. We have been disappointed as new restaurants opened to
see how expensive they are. It would also be nice to see non -chain restaurants in Southlake as we have so many in
Grapevine.
We would love to see more rest. in the Southlake area. We often go to Grapevine when we don't venture far.
We would love to see more restaurants in Southlake. We would eat out more if the line -up for a table were not such a long
wait time.
We would prefer additional reasonably priced, non -chain restaurants.
We'd like to see non - children style restaurants. I'm sure there are couples in this area with no children - like us!!
West End is a mess - rundown and crime ridden.
When we go out for special occasions; it is always Star Canyon or Aquanox in Dallas. For less extravagant meals we tend to
head to either Grapevine or Hurst.
Wish some large well known top quality restaurant would consider Southlake, near Town Square, such as the Cheesecake
Factory; Kirby's is a great addition, would love a I Fratelli's pizza take out!! Canyon Cafe would be awesome out here!!!

Would be nice to have a Whole Foods Market.
Would like something like Nick & Sam's, Samba Room, Sipango, fun places!
Would like to avoid attracting chain restaurants to Southlake. I believe our demographics can support fine dining.
Would like to have a Braums or something similar. Milwaukee Joe's is too expensive for what you get. It's also too small.
We desperately need a good salad bar (not Jason's Deli ).
Would like to have more one of a kind restaurants! We eat out a lot and go to Dallas because of the choices available.
Would like to have more seafood restaurant; one - moderately priced like water street, two - high priced and very upscale.
Would like to see less fast food and more choices of unique and interesting restaurants so we don't need to travel to
Dallas /Addison. More Asian cuisine, Cheesecake Factory, etc.
Would like to see more upscale full service rest. With constant food and service. Less franchise type restaurants. Need one
or two upscale restaurants in town square. Movie theater would help support additional restaurants n Southlake.
Would like to see more upscale restaurants and specialty chains.
Would like to see restaurants in the area other than strip malls and Town Square.
Would like to see smaller independent restaurants rather than large noisy sweaty hot chain restaurants.
Would like to see Southlake remain "upscale" and not turn into "Plano" with the traffic and congestion that too many chain
businesses create.
Would love Black -Eyed Pea, nice steak place, and Cajun.
Would love to see a Pandra's come to Southlake. Currently at Vista Ridge Mall and the Galleria.
Yes, We need more restaurants

TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Greg Last, Director of Economic Development
Betsy Boyett, Economic Development Specialist
SUBJECT: Restaurant Report - Findings from the Restaurant Survey
The attached Restaurant Report is a summary of the findings from the restaurant survey we distributed
last fall. The general purpose for the survey was to solicit information and desires that would enhance
our ability to attract restaurants desired by the citizens of Southlake. I think you will observe by the
level of response and the quantity and quality of the responses, that there is considerable interest in
restaurants in Southlake.
Report Structure
• The first four pages (El -E4) are the Executive Summary and include all information from the
survey in a condensed form.
• The remaining pages (1 -36) contain more detailed descriptions of the findings and detailed
breakdowns within each category. These pages also include the exhaustive list of desired
restaurants and general comments.
• A copy of the survey is included on pages 14 and 15.
Purpose of the Survey & Report
• Update demographic data of interest to restaurant site evaluators.
• Analyze existing dining habits and desires of current residents.
• Identify food types desired by citizens.
• Identify particular restaurants desired by citizens.
• Provide brokers, developers, and restaurant site selectors with findings of the survey.
Numbers of Interest
• 7,476 total surveys distributed.
• 988 total responses (13 %) - 811 Southlake residents (11 %).
• 57 different preferred "food types" were listed.
• Over 600 unique preferred restaurant names were collected.
• Over 360 general comments were collected.
General Observations
• There is great diversity in the comments and desires.
• Comments reflected a general preference for non -chain restaurants.
• Desired restaurant list included many chain restaurants, particularly the higher frequency requests.
• Comments reflected less interest in fast -food services, more interest in family- oriented quality
services.
Contributions
I would like to particularly thank Stefanie Wagoner (ED Specialist), Elyse Wampler (Intern) and Jason
Kinney (Intern) for their hard work in compiling this information over the past year.
