Creative cocktails and soul food with inventive twists served
"A soul-food-forward restaurant with creative twists from the owner, featuring dishes like jerk lamb chops and fried lobster with shrimp and grits. The menu pairs well with inventive cocktails such as a peach d’usse frosé, making it a popular choice for date nights, brunch with friends, and meeting out-of-town guests staying downtown." - Courtney E. Smith
"The original Kitchen + Kocktails is in Dallas, and their spot in River North is their second location. This upscale restaurant serves Southern dishes like pork chops, blackened fish, gumbo, and crab cakes. The huge space is full of giant booths, with lots of places for taking social media photos–like an elaborate flower wall and neon angel wings. Just be aware, there is a dress code, which you can see here." - Adrian Kane
"Described as a chic new Southern eatery by Kevin Kelley, Kitchen + Kocktails sits above the forthcoming Kanvas cocktail lounge and serves as the anchor for the dimly lit speakeasy concept beneath it." - Tierney Plumb
"I noted that BCK Kitchen + Cocktails in the Heights has since shuttered (closed in 2018)." - Brittanie Shey
"After a viral video showed owner Kevin Kelley lecturing customers who were twerking to trap music played by an in-house DJ during a Sunday brunch, this Dallas restaurant drew heavy criticism; Kelley later went on TMZ to defend himself and said reservations at the restaurant skyrocketed following the incident." - Brittanie Shey
