The perfect creation is our Whiskey Kitchen w/ Designer Beef, which offers succulent prime steak and some of the most popular whiskeys and bourbons in the world.

Dallas is the birthplace of the frozen margarita, and we’re thrilled to collaborate with creator Mariano’s Hacienda Ranch to take you on a fun historical tour of the preferred Texan cocktail. Sample the various styles that have become trendsetters over the years.

Dallas is home to several iconic restaurants that are a must-see for both locals and tourists. We are delighted to feature legendary restaurants like Sonny Bryan’s Smokehouse, Cane Rosso, Kuby’s, Dunston, and Café Brazil!
