How FB Society Is Developing Some of DFW’s Most Successful Restaurants | Eater Dallas

"A popular Southern comfort–food spot located in Addison with a second location in San Antonio, this restaurant occupies a tucked-away, 'if you know, you know' niche. The dinner menu is playfully labeled “supper,” signature items include fried chicken and Gulf shrimp and grits, and bartenders run “vinyl hours” playing only records. The dining room channels communal, home-cooked energy akin to a nostalgic local chain but with elevated, accessible food; whimsical touches like an appetizer sampler served on a lazy Susan add to the character. After increased involvement from leadership, menus were refined to feature more fresh vegetables and seasonal sourcing, and most seafood is sourced from the Gulf with select Atlantic items. Gibbons observes that the staff often feel like a curated fit for the brand — people with colored hair, piercings, tattoos, and an independent, maverick streak — a cultural match that helps define the restaurant’s personality." - Courtney E. Smith
