Can’t remember the suburb- maybe it was McKinney - but that place seemed like it was chain restaurants and ONLY chain restaurants as far as the eye could see

I live near McKinney, it is mostly chains, yes. There are some great spots in downtown MCK though.

As BClemms mentioned, Dallas proper has a ton of great spots. They don't stay open for long, but when they're open, they're on point.
