House Cocktail: Rise & Fall

Rayo Bar & Lounge completely exceeded our expectations. We ordered a variety of the sliders, and every single one was spot on with perfectly balanced flavors, cooked just right, and served fresh. To pair with the food, we had the Whiskey Sour and the Mule. Both were outstanding, with the Mule standing out for its subtle basil note that really elevated the drink. We also tried the mezcal Desoulas, which was smooth, smoky, and a perfect match for the menu. Finished off the night with a house made cocktail - "Rise & Fall" - that was, just like everything else, amazing. Everything was amazing. The food was perfect, the drinks were creative and flavorful, and the atmosphere made it all come together. Highly recommend if you want a spot where both the cocktails and the kitchen shine.

Next time I come I'll be trying the fish o'filet.

Came in because I need to use the restroom and grab some fries, boy was I surprised! Started with the fries and as I read the slim menu I decided to grab a Caesar salad as well. The salad arrived and I was very delighted with the fresh finely shredded cheese and grilled lemons. As I tasted the salad, I was taken back by the flavor! There were hints of a seafood and pepper a perfect combination and balance. The fries were seasoned with fried seaweed, trust me it works! The service was excellent! The bartender was very friendly and polite. I was even able to meet the chef! The ambience was pleasantly pleasing and the music was not overwhelming. Overall 10!

Great new lounge in expo park. Solid bar program, tasty eats, good vibes. Excited about the newest addition to the neighborhood!

Do you see any fish?

They just started serving lunch at Rayo's and I was excited as I live 2 blocks away... But then I was so disappointed in the quality of the food. These fish and chips were a joke. Dry, burnt, barely any fish and $13.00!! Omg the worst. Also how do you serve lunch w/o Iced Tea ‍

This place is terrible. Don't go!…read more Ok, now that the skimmers are gone, and those of us who love wine can keep this little gem to ourselves...WOW! Best wine spot in Dallas. Finally, a spot that appreciates great Italian wine as much as my bestie and I do! They've got a great selection of bottles ranging in prices from affordable to, "How much?!" and Josh and Roger, who are both amazing and very knowledgeable, will help you choose the perfect one. Their happy hour wines can not be beat. The nibbles are great and they don't mind if you bring in food to enjoy with your wine. Overall, it's a GREAT place to sit down with a friend and enjoy some wine, great atmosphere and awesome conversation. My only complaint? Their upstairs neighbors really need to get a handle on their water issues. :)

The staff was very welcoming, knowledgeable, and friendly during our visit. Their pricing is affordable and appreciated. This is a bring your own food (BYOF) kind of place which I wasn't against at all, since so many near by places to pick up a snack on the way wouldn't be too hard. Their wine selection isn't large but I enjoyed the labels they provided and looking forward to returning to try more. All in all, it was a relaxing and enjoyable aftnoon and would reccomed others to stop by for a glass or bottle and enjoy a sip.

St. Martin's Wine Bistro is one of the most beautiful rooms in Dallas and is the best kept secret when it comes to quality cocktails. They have a fantastic happy hour offering a nice selection of cocktails and appetizers. It's the perfect way to start your night. I went with a couple of delicious Espresso Martinis to kick off the night. If you haven't been to St. Martin's, you're missing out on a 40 year Dallas gem. There is no better service and it's not even close. Pasha Heidari creates the most inviting environments in Dallas. Go treat yourself with a nice cocktail, delicious food and live piano every night.

We were quickly shown to our seats and immediately brought waters and bread. We each had two cocktails from their booklet menu and they were delicious! You have to order every course at the same time so we were given some time to look over the menu before ordering. We started with the Escargots Bourguignon and the Shrimp St Martins. The sauce that the shrimp was sitting in was TO DIE FOR. The escargot came in a sauce as well but the shrimp sauce was so good I was dipping the escargot in the shrimp sauce! Then out came the Champagne Brie soup- it was my favorite thing I had. I could've easily licked my bowl clean. For the entree I had the Rack of Lamb and my partner had the Seared Sea Bass. We both honestly weren't impressed by either. They were just good, not great. It probably didn't help that we had waited too long for our entrees. Unfortunately, our entire dining experience lasted 2 hours. I appreciate a nice meal that's not rushed... but the time between courses was honestly ridiculous. I'm not sure if it was just this particular night that the kitchen was slow but then again it was a Wednesday night... I'd hate to see a weekend night.
