When was the last time you had a girls' night out? If you have to think about it, then it's been too long. No matter your squad's style, South Victory — the vibrant district located in Victory Park — has the restaurants, boutiques, bars, and entertainment to appeal to any agenda.
Where should you head first? Here are a few suggestions.
Catch a flick with flair
Cinepolis has brought its luxurious movie-going experience to Dallas with an eight-screen, 700-seat cinema that also boasts cutting-edge sound and high-definition projection technology. Stretch out in the reclining leather seats or order a gourmet meal from the waiter, then kick back and enjoy the show.
Indulge your sweet tooth
The sugar-rush experience Sweet Tooth Hotel returns for its third installation, "Discotech," May 25, bringing with it Instagram opps galore and the chance to fully immerse yourself in a world of larger-than-life candy. Some of Dallas' most innovative artists have created this 5,000-square-foot experiential art pop-up, which has five sugar-themed interactive rooms based on popular treats. Purchase tickets here.
Shop 'til you drop
Keep the sweet theme going by ducking into It'Sugar, the candy wonderland with treats both edible and just plain cheeky. Irreverent items also abound at Read Between the Lines, where you'll find fine paper goods, home decor, jewelry, and gifts. Refresh your wardrobes at V.O.D., which stocks independent designers from around the world, or pick up some cute Mavs or Stars gear from The Hangar for the next home game at the nearby AAC.
Toast to friendship
There's no shortage of eatery options at South Victory, ranging from a quick organic, cold-pressed juice from Buda Juice to the unique experience that is Billy Can Can. Take advantage of patio weather at Jinya Ramen, where you can sip cocktails while building your ideal bowl from 10 signature ramen recipes and 20-plus toppings. Imoto also has a stellar menu of drinks and eats that covers traditional sushi and modern Asian cuisine, while Mesero puts a contemporary spin on Mexican food and craft cocktails.
Plan your ultimate girls' night out at South Victory's website, and see where the night takes you.
