STEWART'S

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

"Chef Tim Love makes a splash for summer with what he calls “a country club for the people.” We call it a cocktail bar with croquet. Whichever description you prefer, Love was influenced by British clubs from the previous century, where folks could get a nice Pimm’s Cup and have a civilized afternoon of games and day drinking. The bar food is fancy, including a Silver Fin (Royal Ossetra caviar served with six chilled Grey Goose shots), caviar bumps, Texas blue crab cakes, a lobster roll, and zucchini carpaccio. Guests can order pretty much whatever they want to drink, but the highlight of Stewart’s is unquestionably the martini cart, from which bartenders make the tableside martini of your dreams using “a bespoke blend of dry vermouths and a selection of six custom bitters,” according to a press release. Finish with two olives or a twist, it’s all up to you." - Courtney E. Smith
