  • 2004 | Best Salad

    Everything at Cuba Libre goes down easy, from the (pretty 'spensive) pitcher of mojitos to the elegant desserts to the eye candy that fills this Knox-Henderson joint late at night. But, to paraphrase an old Nate Newton commercial, when we are... More >

  • 2004 | Best French Fries

    Give us fried potato in any form and generally, we're happy. We praise the inventors of the tater tot, french fry and hash brown. And we felt really bad for our arteries when we discovered a new addiction: Jerk Frittes from Cuba Libre. The thin... More >

  • 2004 | Best Creme Brulee

    Pretty much any event that combines two of our favorite pastimes--food and setting things aflame--will win our rapt devotion. Dislike bananas, like bananas Foster. Loathe the French, adore crêpes suzette. So, any dessert that brings a butane... More >

  • 2003 | Best Late-Night Restaurant

    You can get something to take the edge off a hangover anywhere. A meat-and-potatoes plate of, well, meat and potatoes? Nothing special. There are plenty of places that'll hook you up. In a pinch, there are also half a dozen 7-Elevens on your way... More >

  • 2002 | Best Late-night Restaurant

    There's nowhere in Dallas to get a better hit of post-debauchery nutrition than Cuba Libre, a Latin rumba of pulsing pecs, flirty lips, slinky dresses and herbs and spices lewdly dispersed over various protein platforms hopped up on... More >

Dallas Observer Reviews and News

  • Flip It

    By Mark Stuertz | Thu, July 06, 2006

    For three decades and change, Farmer's Grill has served greasy-spoon, cozy-home grub featuring fresh produce from the nearby Farmers Market. No more. The place is going upscale. Two months ago, the disheveled Grill was taken over by Dr. Ira Murch... More >

  • Steak Stoked

    By Mark Stuertz | Thu, September 09, 2004

    Steak drives men to ramble. Specifics? Monte Morris. Before Tristan Simon and his merry band of Consolidated Restaurant operators lured him to run Cool River Café in Las Colinas, Morris was burrowed in a steak house up in Denver. Then Simon broke ... More >

  • Heads Up

    By Dave Faries | Thu, April 22, 2004

    Poets, sages and thinkers of great magnitude have grappled for centuries with the fundamental mysteries standing in the way of human progress--stuff like hunger, indigenous populations, the environment, that sort of thing. None of them, however, ... More >

  • Servi-tude

    By Dave Faries | Thu, March 18, 2004

    Most of us recognize outstanding service instantly, whether in the form of an act, such as unfolding a napkin and pulling out a chair, or a record of self-sacrifice--like spending a few weeks in the National Guard. A set of handy idioms ("the cus... More >

  • Vice Grip

    By Mark Stuertz | Thu, January 01, 2004

    It was the year of smoke. So many Dallas restaurant landmarks went up in the stuff in 2003, and so many Pall Malls and Partagas Churchills didn't, at least not within restaurant walls. And walls will be the most crucial culinary consideration in D... More >

    It's not that expensive and I've never had to wait. I went for my birthday last year, and the bartender waited on us upstairs. Incredible, personalized service. Always a good experience. I highly recommend their creme brulee!
