Dallas Restaurants

"Hands down one of the best restaurants in town" hail fans of this "inventive" Knox-Henderson Eclectic (indeed it's Dallas/Ft. Worth's Most Popular) helmed by Kent Rathbun, whose "truly memorable" "Californian, French and Asian"–style dishes – including signature lobster shooters that "deserve the hype" – "never fail to delight or impress"; service is "meticulous" as well, so the only downside is that it's so "expensive", you may "need an abacus to total the bill"; N.B. the Decor score does not reflect a recent redo.

"A taste of Santa Fe" comes to Texas via this "popular" mini-chain drawing plenty of "crowds" for "affordable", "palate-pleasing" Southwestern dishes, "addictive sweet potato chips", "killer" blue margaritas and a "fantastic Sunday brunch buffet"; the vibe is "comfortable" and staff "accommodating to large groups", so the only downside is that it "can be hard to get in."

"Manly high-end dining" is alive and well at these "clubby" chophouse "institutions" where "yuppies" on "expense accounts" "tackle" "perfectly seared" steaks garnished with an "enormous" signature glazed carrot; all locations feature "noisy" environs, while the Lemmon Avenue branch offers "frequent Dallas Cowboy sightings" as an added appeasement; N.B. a branch in Ft. Worth's Omni Hotel is coming in 2009.
