Uptown Plaza — Attraction in Dallas

Went for Power Hour happy hour. Friday at 5:30 pm. Free parking was no problem right in front of the restaurant. Sat in bar area, we chose a tall table, they have short tables and you can sit at the bar. We ordered from the Bar Bites menu, everything was delicious, comparably priced to other steak houses and good portions. The filet mignon trio was particularly good as were the 3 different sauces topping them.We only drank a beer, but were impressed with the extensive wine list and the large glass displays of wine bottles in the front and rear of the restaurant. The fresh baked bread with onion baked on top, with real butter whipped to spread easily, was very delicious. We also had crab cake sliders and the wedge salad, both were excellent. First visit and will definitely return for dinner soon....

Order an Amarone red in advance to let it breathe and take out a little of the chalkiness leaving just enough to unctuously wet and cleanse your palate between steak bites. Make sure to sample three or four sides like sauteed mushrooms, asparagus with hollandaise, and truffle fries. Order your chocolate souffle with your meal to give it 45 minutes to cook. Pair it with some port or cognac for your grande finale! Now roll home....

I'm sure they think the average driver knows to yield to traffic coming from the main road, but sadly they do not. Might be time for me to visit another...
