You Can Swing While You Eat At This Cutesy Dallas Patio

It's time to try one of everything.
Contributor

There's nothing quite like enjoying your food outdoors on a nice summer day. Luckily, in Dallas, there are numerous ways to do just that, although there's one spot in particular that stands out from the rest. Desert Racer, a popular Dallas spot, is keeping their dining room and the main bar closed until further notice, but as a result, they've decided to unveil a patio pop-up on site which will serve some of the restaurant's tastiest menu items.

Desert Racer's outdoor area has been transformed into Vantina, a "patio pop-up" with swinging patio seats and mouthwatering cuisine.

Tacos, burgers, margaritas, beer, and snacks can be found on Vantina's menu, all of which will leave you wanting more. Thankfully, you can order as much as you want.

The pop-up opened on Thursday, May 28, and it has not been announced when they're planning to reopen Desert Racer for normal business.

Whatever the timeline looks like, there's never a bad occasion for taking a seat on one of their adorable swinging chairs with an ice-cold margarita in one hand and a burger in another.

The pop-up is open Wednesday through Sunday from 3 to 10 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 3 to 11 p.m. 

Basically, there's plenty of time in the day to stop by and check out what the new-and-improved outdoor space of Desert Racer has to offer.

According to Vantina's website, dine-in is their only option for ordering food for now, though to-go is coming soon for guests craving a melty cheeseburger or boozy beverage.

They're planning on making getting your hands on their food easier than ever in no time. Patience, Prudence!
