Food Delivery in Dallas/Ft. Worth: An Overview

Dallas/Fort Worth

The Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex, or sometimes just referred to as the DFW or metroplex, is the fourth largest metro area by population in the United States. Home to over 7.5 million people, DFW is still growing at a rapid pace. One of the biggest economic driving forces in not only Texas but the American South, DFW is strong in the energy, banking, telecommunications, and healthcare sectors. Dallas is home to the Cowboys, Stars, and Mavericks, while the Rangers are situated between each city in Arlington. Not surprisingly, you will never struggle to find incredible BBQ or southern comfort food in this area, but given its large population and position as a cultural hub, today there are many more options for authentic cuisine from other nations as well as original Texas dishes.
