Dallas/Ft. Worth

Luke Phillips: Very uniquely designed southern-style restaurant, complete with Winnebago on the patio. Great cocktail menu. You have to try the classic hot chicken!

Luke Phillips: Gastropub with a 'schoolhouse' vibe. Menu seems more happy-hour driven. The chicken and waffles was great and they also offer a wide range of beers (not surprisingly).

Luke Phillips: Amazing food, haven't had a dish I didn't like yet! Their claim is that the entire menu is 'from-scratch' only. You of course have to take in the namesake whiskeys and the whiskey cake itself!

Luke Phillips: Over 20 awesome restaurants in à la carte fashion, you have to see it in-person. Designed so that you can try as much as possible throughout. Expect it to be crowded, but so worth it!
