    Hang onto summer a bit longer this week with events featuring warm weather favorites: ice cream and rosé. There’s also a festival for both dogs and humans and a Japanese pop-up. Also make plans now for one very exclusive South African wine dinner come Monday.

    Tuesday, August 16

    Guest Scooper Series at Van Leeuwen Ice Cream
    The still-new Uptown ice cream destination will welcome two special guest scoopers this week: Mimi Sterling, CEO of The Family Place Dallas, and co-founder Ben Van Leeuwen himself. Both guests will be in-store to scoop gourmet ice cream from 7-9 pm, when 20 percent of sales will go to The Family Place, an organization that aims to help curb domestic violence. Guests can enjoy exclusive summer flavors including Blueberry Shortcake, Toasted Marshmallow S’mores, and Strawberry Sumac Sorbet. The guest scooper series will run through August.

    Wednesday, August 17

    Wolf and the Fox Pop-Up at Midnight Rambler
    Dallas-based Wolf and the Fox, which hosts private omakase dinners and dining experiences, will visit The Joule’s Midnight Rambler for a one-night pop-up. Chefs Yoni Lang and Liz Scobee will bring their famed chirashi bowls to sell, along with ceviche, sweet desserts, and more. Pre-orders are strongly encouraged (many items are already sold out for advance orders), but walk-in sales will be welcome after 9 pm. Pre-sale pick-up will take place from 6-9 pm. Stay for cocktail specials incorporating Japanese ingredients, like the Dance Police made with yuzu-lime soda.

    Saturday, August 20

    Rosé Tasting and Class at Trova Wine + Market
    The Dallas wine shop and bar hosts a tasting and food pairing class featuring the favorite sip of summer — rosé. Led by Trova’s sommelier, the tasting will teach about all the qualities of rose winé; it will feature five favorite rosés and paired bites with each. Reservations are $55 per person, plus tax, and begins at 1 pm.

    Dallas Blonde Birthday Crawl through Deep Ellum
    It’s the 10th birthday of Deep Ellum Brewing Company’s Dallas Blonde beer, and the brewery is out to prove that blondes do have more fun. Break out the blonde wigs, golden crowns, and tutus, if desired, to embark on a bar crawl to celebrate. Check in between 2-4 pm at Deep Ellum Brewing Company to get a wristband, swag bag, map, and the first beer. There’ll be beer and shot specials at stops along the route all day long. Tickets are $20 and come with a promo code for $10 off a Lyft ride.

    Pints & Pups at Addison Circle Park
    Canines and humans alike will enjoy this pop-up festival geared toward furry friends. There’ll be a dog park for both small and large dogs, paw print art, a photo booth, and pet adoptions, along with live music and complimentary beer tastings. Participating breweries include Hop & Sting Brewing Co., Peticolas Brewing Co., TUPPS Brewery, and more. Food trucks will include The Pet Treat Truck and Frios Gourmet Pops serving both popsicles and “pupsicles.” The free event will run from 7-10 pm.

    Backyard Jamboree at Truck Yard
    At this backyard party — taking place at both the Dallas and The Colony locations — city slickers can partake in carnival games like toilet seat horseshoes, plunger catch-ball, and bra pong while sipping on boozy Watermelon Kegs, Cousin Kisser cocktails, and Flabongos (flamingo beer bongs). Live music will play throughout the yard all day long, and even pups get a treat with frozen watermelon ice cubes. The day-long free festivities start at 12 pm.

    Monday, August 22

    A.A. Badenhorst Wine Dinner at Monarch
    Acclaimed South African winemaker Adi Badenhorst will visit the 49th-floor Dallas restaurant to share his world-class wines. The five-course menu will feature quail, lamb porterhouse, merluza, and more. Dinner is $250 per person, plus tax and gratuity, and begins at 6 pm.

    Longtime Dallas restaurant Sevy's Grill to close after nearly 30 years

    A longtime Dallas restaurant is closing in 2026: Sevy's Grill, which has been open at 8201 Preston Rd. near Preston Center for nearly 30 years, will close on June 27, 2026.

    According to a release from the owners, they're closing due to what appears to be an increase in rent.

    "After months of negotiations, we were not able to come to a mutually beneficial agreement for our fourth 10-year lease," the post said.

    The restaurant is located in Preston Sherry Plaza, which was acquired in September 2025 by Austin-based Endeavor Real Estate. Somebody gotta foot the bill.

    Sevy's says they are looking at other locations.

    "Our focus now is to finish these next 6+ months taking care of our guests and staff at the same caring level we built our brand on: Warm, professional service, consistently good food and a comfortable ambiance where the guest is always first," the post says. "First on our list of priorities is taking care of our guests in December and all the wonderful celebrations of family, friends and business groups. We do still have some availability for reservations, including our last New Years Eve at Preston Sherry. Come celebrate with us as the exciting anticipation of a new year for all of us."

    "Our second priority will be the search for a new location to continue doing what we love," they said. "We are already reviewing possible sites and will keep everyone updated regularly."

    Owned by chef Jim "Sevy" Severson and his wife Amy Severson, the restaurant has long been a neighborhood favorite with a lively bar scene, and was nominated in CultureMap's 2018 Tastemaker Awards for Best Neighborhood Restaurant. They were a frequent choice for winemaker events and are also known for the longevity of their staff.

    "Eight team members have been with us all 29+ years, with an average tenure in the kitchen of 15+ years and a Management team that you all know," their post said. "Come support our staff as we celebrate the next 6+ months.Thank you again for your support through all the normal challenges of running a restaurant as well as economic downturns, market bubbles, Y2K, and of course the COVID era. As I tell my family and friends to “enjoy the ride in life”, wow, what an amazing ride it has been for us! And as always, Sevy’s Grill is here for you."
