Mike's has been on my Dallas bucket list for a while and I finally got the chance to stop in! My partner and I decided to stop in for a night cap while celebrating our 5th anni and omg! Long story short, we will def be returning! The vibes in short give straight out a movie. They not only had a menu with bar bites, but their cocktail menu was great! I went ahead and tried their Mike's martini, because why not!? And my boyfriend appreciated their bottled beers given the last place we were at didn't serve any! The service also was amazing! The bartender that night gave us so much hospitality. They even made me a pickle martini for my last round of the night! We will definitely be returning!

Mike's Gemini Twin is a gem of a dive bar located in the Cedars neighborhood just outside downtown Dallas. They pour fantastic classic cocktails, serve delicious gourmet hot dogs at the bar, and always make you feel like you're at home at a friend's really cool bar. Mike's is owned by the same family that owns Bowen House, Las Palmas, St. Martin's, and Urbano Cafe. They know what they're doing and quality is their secret. Libations, food and the best service anywhere is how they keep everyone coming back. Complex and creative recipes can be found at Bowen House, but Mike's is a more casual concept that specializes in the classics. I had two of my favorites, a Godfather (photo #1) and Hemingway (photo #4). The Godfather is simply Scotch and Amaretto and a Hemingway is Cognac and Benedictine. We appreciate having a fun, kitschy bar that creates one of the most eclectic vibes in town. It's rare for Dallas, but we're thankful for great owners like Pasha Heidari and his family for creating authentic spaces with high quality service. If you haven't been, you need to go see Chase and the crew at Mike's. Maybe they'll even make you a Grasshopper if you ask nicely. Salute @thejohnnycocktail Godfather 2 oz. Scotch 1 oz. Amaretto Hemingway 2 oz. Cognac 1 oz. Benedictine

Where else can you get a drink, a really good hotdog, and play pool? Not many places in Dallas that's for sure!

Hot dog, chips & Old Fashioned.

Just as advertised. Stopped in for happy hour. Hot dogs by candlelight, & a $6.50 happy hour Old Fashioned.

Great little dive bar, even better hot dogs ! Great vibe !! My friends and I truly enjoyed it ! Reasonable drink prices and a pool table !

Hot dog, dominos, drinks- what more do you need?

Super awesome vibes, loved the ambience. Service was great, hot dog was good and came out quick. Drinks are reasonable especially for Dallas- I would totally go again. Parking PSA: they have a private lot with a security attendant- classy!

Oh my goodness, everything about this place is just fantastic! I absolutely adore that dive bar vibe--it's so cozy and intimate! It has this wonderfully grungy charm that somehow feels classy at the same time. Plus, they whip up some amazing craft cocktails, which is such a treat! And let me tell you, the bar servers are just the friendliest people around. It really makes the whole experience even better! You'll feel right at home here!

So, I was following my GPS and ended way out of where I thought I was going. This bar just happened to be opened, and as I told the young lady that was behind the bar, she was like an oasis in the middle of the desert. The service was lovely. The drinks were fine and the water was plentiful for my walking the wrong way in the Dallas hot sun. I had a cocktail and they gladly let me wait for my ride to bring me back to my downtown hotel!

Always having fun

Any time I'm in Dallas this place is a MUST I love the energy and the music is always amazing!! They have touch tunes so you can play any song you want. The espresso martinis ‍ THE BEST!! I travel all over the world and this place will always be a must visit every time I'm in Dallas no matter the occasion this is the vibe and the service is always worth it!!

A great place for Pro Athletes to just grab a drink!

Some venues know who they are, and that's enough! So is the story of Mike's Gemini Twin. I've heard about Mike's Gemini long before I sashayed through their doors for the first time, and I'm glad I finally did. In my category of venues, Mike's classifies as a dive bar with crosstown appeal, attracting everyone from pro ballplayers, to stars of the service industry, and socialites such as myself. If you're looking for a fun time, place to enjoy a cocktail with rare finds, bar-bites, or a game of billiards, all while getting to know some of the coolest people from around town, this is your place. Mike's Gemini also offers a patio for those who enjoy the outdoors. Maybe this isn't your neck of the woods, so it can be a little difficult to find the first time, but I did it, so I'm confident you'll be okay! Xoxo Lorenzo!

Came here on a Monday at 5:15 - it was happy hour…read more Mitch the bartender was super personable, educated me on several gins and took me on a mini tasting tour of some unique gins - really nice guy. Had two martinis here and left with a smile Highly recommend

Parliament posted their rainy-day happy hour on Instagram the same day I visited, so I was…read moresurprised when the tall bartender with glasses told me the special only applied if it was actively raining at that exact moment. He literally told me, "If a drop of rain comes, then I'll give it to you." It had rained for much of the day, and multiple customers were asking about the same promotion. If the requirement is that rain must physically be falling while you order, that needs to be clearly stated in the advertisement. Otherwise, the promotion feels misleading. I've been to Parliament several times and have never had a bartender interpret the rainy-day happy hour this way. I ended up ordering a smoked Old Fashioned from another bartender I've had before, and it was great. He was friendly, engaging, had great energy, and even did tricks while making the drink. I still enjoyed my cocktail, but it would've been nice to have the option to order from the happy-hour menu as advertised that day. I'm including the Instagram post for reference. I'm very disappointed as I've never not had a good time at Parliament. I really think that the owner should look at the Times stamps around 930 to 10:15pm part night and see the difference of business and traffic flow from when the taller bartender with the glasses versus the shorter Bartender with the glasses was at the front as it was instantly more business. Oh and lastly, I left my Betsy JOHNSON purple umbrella. I'm so sad and they don't have a number to call.
