Yellowtail Sushi Bar & Steak

Best Restaurants Near American Airlines Center | Eater Dallas

"As a locally owned spot that has become a favorite, Yellowtail is known for its Japanese cuisine and, more specifically, its surf and turf options. For steak lovers, numerous cuts are available to pair with shrimp or lobster. Plates full of seafood like pepper-seared tuna with crispy onions, Japanese oysters in ponzu sauce, and chili crab lettuce wraps pop off the menu, along with maki, handrolls, sashimi, and nigiri sushi options. Vegetarians can eat well here, too, thanks to its extensive menu of veggie rolls and dishes, like Monkey Brain (deep-fried avocado stuffed with spicy tuna sauce). The aesthetics hit the sushi-meets-steakhouse decor you’d expect, with black furniture, red and purple lighting, and wooden flourishes adding to its classic-meets-modern sort of charm." - Courtney E.
