Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Dean Fearing

From the OpenTable editors: Named Esquire’s 2007 Best New Restaurant of the Year, celebrity chef Dean Fearing’s swanky spot still turns out some of the city’s most innovative Southwestern fare. Feast on achiote-glazed antelope over mole with a braised rabbit enchilada, all while seated in a series of elegant dining rooms with Texas accents like rawhide chandeliers. The restaurant's sprawling patio is a prime weekend spot thanks to live music and a lively brunch.

    We came to celebrate my wife’s birthday with 4 of our children ages 5 and under. Fearings went above and beyond to accommodate us and we have never had a restaurant experience with our kids like this. From the moment we walked in the hostess gave each of our kids a small stuffy to keep them entertained. The staff were extremely attentive to every detail and even helped buckle our youngest into booster seats. Dean Fearing came to say hi and make sure everything was perfect. 15/10 would highly recommend.

    It has been several years since I have been here and, it wasn’t as good as I remembered. The service was adequate and the food was very good, but this was not a $350 dining experience (for two). The menu felt tired and the staff seemed indifferent. I’m hoping this was just an off night.
