Dallas ObserverAugust 23, 2013Gets the job done when most of the other bars in Dallas are mopping the kitchen floors. And the neighborhood locals who congregate at the bar make this one of Dallas' best places to spend late night.
Owners & staff are the best part of the experience here, other than the food and drinks. Literally, EVERYTHING is good. Beet salad, fried pork loin, pizza, Nova 75...
- Dallas ObserverAugust 4, 2014This gastropub in the former Kavala space was opened by a conglomerate of local hospitality hotshots, among them chef Kelly Hightower, whose pedigree includes Bolla, the Green Room and Hibiscus. Read more
- MacKenzie McCarverJuly 2, 2019Local spot with great cocktails, friendly staff, and a fried pork loin that will change your life (no guarantees). No kids menu. Great for a date or friends night out. Not one bad dish on the menu.
Timothy MöhleNovember 22, 2014This roasted chicken is pretty damn good. Glad the waitress suggested it. I never default to chicken breast when eating out. I mean how pedestrian, right? Wrong!
- Dallas ObserverJuly 22, 2013The smoked salmon makes this one of Dallas' best bar snacks, and the neighborhood locals sitting on the stools make this one of Dallas' best bars.
Jennifer HudsonJune 24, 2013Heirloom tomato salad was a special. It was awesome. Nice touch of habanero was the secret to the pleasing hint of spice, according to our most awesome waiter, Blake.
Try the beet salad with BBQ vinaigrette. Even if you think you hate beets, you'll love this unorthodox dish. Mussels are also amazing.- Daniel ArakiApril 2, 2016Chicken fried pork is amazing! They also have great beer tap selection. Managers are friendly
- katy ramseyMarch 28, 2016Brunch was amazing but all good here is on point. Try the mimosas or the mule
Larry HanceDecember 22, 2013Our friends took us here after music at the Kesler. Very good food and great atmosphere! Definitely will go back.
Gastón LabougleAugust 9, 2013Great atmosphere. A mixture between a retro diner and a modern bar. The pizza is very very good- Dallas ObserverSeptember 25, 2014Instead of the traditional soft-boiled egg, you'll find a perfectly poached version in Nova's ramen.
Greg BellApril 18, 2016Brisket burger, pork fried steak and chocolate bomb for dessert. Service was outstanding!
Whit MaullOctober 19, 2015The chicken fried pork tenderloin is enough food for two, but so good that you'll finish it yourself.
L BenskinMarch 1, 2016Beet salad, Brussels sprouts, hummus, pizza, noodles, frequently changing menu item!- Dallas ObserverSeptember 4, 2014You'll find the TV down at the end of the bar, where it curves like a fishhook, making conversation easy.
- Timothy MöhleNovember 22, 2014The place is buzzing with a very inventive, homey menu. Bring earplugs on a weekend night.
Bret CococciaApril 19, 2013Love this place! "Mid-century modern/retro"... It's like local townies meets hipsters meets The Jetsons.
Amelia VonKennelJanuary 15, 2011A glass of cava, pita and hummus appetizer, spinach and feta pizza. Yum! Don't be afraid of the patio, nice and toasty!
Warren FarmerSeptember 27, 2013Have Rob, the bartender, tell you the story of his Christmas Party in the U-Haul. It laugh your ass offable.
We love the brunch. Fantastic food and cocktails.
The shrimp pizza is great. The people at the bar are interesting.
JOANN ONTHERUNMay 31, 2016Shrimp & grits were pretty good... Tomato soup tasted like tomato sauce, grilled cheese sammich was dry & disappointing
