20 Best Restaurants in Dallas, From Tex-Mex to Vietnamese | Condé Nast Traveler

"An elegant spot nestled within the eminently walkable Bishop Arts District , Âme is small and well appointed, with just the right amount of eclectic charm. Some of the most innovative French-Indian fusion you'll ever taste, some of the dishes on this menu are worthy of their own standalone reviews. The MVPs include the herb crusted pistachio lamb chops and the cashew chicken tikka—particularly when you order a paratha croissant on the side, to soak up the delicious, velvety tikka overflow. Don't overlook the sides either: the masala-baked eggplant in turmeric bechamel is a bona fide taste sensation. Must orders at the bar include the Mumbai Gimlet (gin, lime cordial, basil and absinthe rinse) and the feisty Massala Sour, a spicy bourbon number." - David Landsel, Diana Oates, Jonathan Thompson
