It’s time to meet the winners of this year’s Best in DFW: People’s Choice awards

After months of nominations and voting, followed by even more time waiting eagerly for the results, the big day has finally arrived. Today, we reveal the Best in DFW winners in major categories including Eat & Drink, Education, Entertainment, Establishments, Health & Beauty, Home & Garden, Hotels, Legal, Motors, Real Estate, Services, Shopping and Things to Do. This year’s contest sought to find the best of the best people, businesses and destinations in DFW, and we think you’ll agree that the final tally has yielded some no-brainers as well as a few surprises.

Not only do the winning businesses have bragging rights until next year’s top contenders are revealed, you, the reader win too. That’s because you now have a highly valuable list of places to take out-of-town visitors, a go-to roster of service providers that can make your daily life in DFW more stress-free, and oh-so-many places to eat and drink the finest foods and booziest beverages the big city has to offer.

If you don’t see your favorites listed, then you have one job to do next year: nominate and vote! (OK, that’s two jobs, but they’re both vitally important to finding the very best businesses and attractions across North Texas). To everyone who voted this year, we thank you. And the winners, of course, thank you as well.

Now read on for the winners, then get out and enjoy this amazing place we call home.
