Where is the Best Martini in Dallas, Texas?
I really have no idea what’s going on, I feel like I am in the twilight zone! Well maybe not that dramatic, but what Obar are all these people talking about??? Bc I am having trouble believing it’s that tiny little underground place on Main I know as Obar! I’m not defending the bar, I find the place a bit too hard to walk through/ get a drink anyway, but was so curious I had to ask! I live downtown and have been to Obar roughly 50 times over the past 3 years since moving to Dallas and I couldn’t be more confused! Waiting in hours-long lines? Lists? Slipping money to bouncers? Did I accidentally link to the Ghostbar reviews somehow? And I don’t even know what is going on with all of the racism stuff… I’ve never noticed anything other than a well mixed crowd. Who are the non-whites not getting in? Asian? Black? Hispanic? Again, I’m just curious at this point… bc the Obar all these people are talking about just…. doesn’t exist? By the way, heard rumors Obar shut down
Great food and a very casual, lively atmosphere. Definitely the best bar in Uptown to meet with your friends and have a good time. If your eating, get the cheddar fries and the burgers – some of the best in Dallas if you ask me. Freindly staff. Gets crowded on the weekends.When the weather’s nice, check out the patio out back. Sometimes they have some pretty cool bands out there. Pros + Good food/drink – nicely casualCons – Karaoke night is loud
While not unique, this restaurant in Crescent Court is a delicious find. This chain which has 9 locations across the US, offers delightful cuisine at a decent price. The menu, which has an Italian flair, offers everything from brick oven pizza to a rotisserie pork chop and braised lamb shank. The starters will keep you coming back (as proclaimed by the waiter). The crisp potatoes gorgonzola are essentially waffle fries with a cheese sauce, but delicious none the less. The king crab and artichoke dip, will in fact keep you coming back, with its rich combination of fresh crab and parmesan cheese. You would be remiss if you did not order one of the 5 or 6 tasty desserts, which include a fresh cobbler and a warm chocolate torte. The food is delicious, the decor unique, and the wait staff attentive, don?t miss out of this delectable restaurant.Pros + ambience, service, foodCons – $5 valet
The price is certainly right at this “family” restaurant. It reminds me of Ponderosa but the food is a little better, not much. Perhaps it’s just that steak houses in Texas are so good that this one pales. But, like I said, it’s not expensive either. Pros + InexpensiveCons – You get what you pay for.
