"This tiny spot is the kind of place real cocktail nerds want to drink. With a menu developed by owners Gabe Sanchez and Ryan Payne, there are strong new classics. The Sue Ellen and Pam Ewings, both takes on an espresso martini made with vodka and tequila, are great examples. They’re clear because the booze is washed with espresso beans, and then a little espresso oil gets dropped in — it’s a rad evolution for one of Dallas’s favorite drinks. If you don’t know what you want, just give the bartenders a sense, and they will whip something up. The vibe is the inside of a nerd’s bedroom — think a velvet painting of Clint Eastwood and more Star Wars and concert posters than one can count. There are a few street spots nearby, but the shared valet with the restaurant next door is free, so why not use it?" - Courtney E. Smith, Kevin Gray
