Dallas, Texas’s Best New Cocktail Bars | Eater Dallas

"This Deep Ellum surf club has upped its game this summer, with a new menu from Dallas chef Nick Badovinus and cocktail offerings to match. Go here for frozen margaritas with a swirl of blackberry, blood orange, or hibiscus; margaritas on tap in classic, spicy (jalapeño and spicy bitters), or pina, which uses caramelized pineapple; and killer spins on classic cocktails like a cucumber mojito, prickly pear paloma, or blackberry mule. The bar also serves up a longer list than most places of low- and no-proof drinks, plus it carries THC-infused seltzer waters for the Cali sober crowd (hilariously, provided by the Dallas-based company Cali Sober). The restaurant has been redesigned, featuring a new patio with a shade cover, where guests can enjoy drinks while watching the surf pool, pickleball courts, or simply taking in the crowd." - Courtney E.
