Dakota's Restaurant
Dakota's showcases an extensive gourmet menu of dry-aged steaks and seafood dishes, featuring crab, shrimp and lobster. Quail and other poultry dishes are also served. Dakota Restaurant is located underneath what used to be the First Dallas Baptist Church. The title for the space makes it clear that alcohol is not to be served on the grounds of the former church, but because the restaurant is located 18 feet under the building, Dakota's Restaurant can legally serve alcohol without violating the deed. Enjoy fine wine or custom-mixed cocktails while feeling a bit like an outlaw at this establishment.
