Description

CLOSED Until Bella opened in the Quadrangle, only other chefs knew of Christopher Short and his skill in the kitchen. So a big "thank you" is due to this place for showcasing his talents for the rest of us. He can take a simple avocado soup and turn it into something remarkable. The chef's version of scallops-part of a dinner salad-may be the perfect Uptown bistro dish, being not too heavy yet pronounced in flavor. Even his burger is good. And the bar scene can be outstanding on weekends.

    Bella gives a little-known, talented chef a place to shine

    Everyone is familiar with Dean Fearings and Stephan Pyles and the other big boys of the Dallas dining set, but this year a group of relative unknowns is challenging their celebrity chef status. Sure, both continue at the top of the table, and... More »

    The new-ish Quadrangle space has three key things going for it. First is location, obviously. Second is their no-reservations policy, forcing incoming guests to loiter around the bar until other diners clear out. Finally--and most important--owners Robert Petrie (not the one played by Dick Van Dyke) and Tony Porcaro, who once held sway at Nick & Sam's. Many steakhouse bar patrons seem to have come along with the pair, as weekend evenings are a mix of dinner guests, well-heeled... More »
