One of Dallas's hippest nightspots is also a mind-boggling restaurant with exotic, urbane design elements. Dishes bearing heavy influences from Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, China, and Morocco resonate with bold flavors and creativity. Among the menu's pleasures are pot stickers stuffed with rock shrimp and laced with lobster butter over a crisp, cool salad of pear slices and watercress; black cod slicked with a miso glaze; and a tagine of fish cooked with preserved lemons and garlic over a pillow of couscous.
