The restaurant scene in Dallas remains vibrant, with dozens of openings on the table from here through 2017. There are so many coming, we needed a list — a list of every restaurant opening around Dallas for the rest of 2016.

Hopefully we got 'em all.

Betty Ringer Ice Cream
Stephen Smith, founder of Nib Chocolates. It's going into the empty space next to art gallery Iota, and it will offer ice cream, along with some of Smith's well-known confections, including his signature caramels. Construction on the shop — which is named for two of his pets — has just begun, with an opening scheduled in time for the 2016 holiday season.

Bird Bakery
New bakery opening in Highland Park Village is an offshoot of the acclaimed original in San Antonio. It'll do baked goods, plus breakfast with Cuvee Coffee and lunch.

Chip's Old Fashioned Hamburgers
Old-time burger chain has a new branch in the works, set to open in Frisco's Granite Park area.

Skinny Pizza
Gourmet, healthy New York pizza experience in a fast-casual format will open its first Dallas-area branch in Addison Circle, in a spot with pizza DNA: the former location of Pastazio. The "skinny" part of the name refers to the crust: It's very thin and crisp. They also offer whole wheat and gluten-free crusts.

Taverna

Tortaco
Mexican concept with tacos and more from restaurateur Mike Karns opens in fall in the former home of Stephan Pyles' San Salvaje.

Zoli's NY Pizza Tavern
The original Zoli’s in the Bishop Arts District closed in 2015, leaving a huge loss in the local pizza landscape. This revival opening in Addison in late fall 2016 will take it to the next level, with a bigger space and broader menu of pizza, sandwiches, pastas, entrées, and more.
