    Live Band in the back! What a view right next to the Alamo Dome!
    Angel S.

    This place truly caught us off guard, but in the best possible way! We met up with friends to check out a band called Soul Grammar (which rock btw) and ending up having THE BEST TIME! From the atmosphere, the views, to the food, it was all great. We ordered $20 bottles of Prosecco and a few IPAs, along with Smoked Wings, Waygu Frito Pie and an Italian Sandwich. The food is actually amazing! We loved being able to go right up to the side window and place our orders easily and then have everything delivered to our table. They have a huge patio area with tables so you can sit outside and enjoy the music and food when the weather is nice (as it usually is). The bandstand features a backdrop of the Alamodome and the tower of Americas which makes for epic photos. The bar area inside is super cute and has a small stage where they do smaller shows and karaoke during the week. Cannot wait to get back to Dakota!

    Love love love!! First of all, food was sooooooo good. Absolutely love the vibe of the place. Art work is very much in line with the neighborhood and it really felt comfortable from the moment I walked in. Staff was super friendly, other patrons were friendly. Can't wait to go back.

    Love the staff. Bring your dog. Inside or outside is fine. I ordered the biscuits with chopped brisket, bbq sauce, and pickles. Everything tasted great and the chef brought it out himself. Two side salads. You can get chips but I got an extra salad to be healthy. They make their own ranch here and it is so good! Top it off with a little balsamic. An amazing salad. Well done!

    Have been wanting to check this place out since they opened, so a group of us decided to head out early on a Saturday and enjoy some food and drinks at this Eastside Neighborhood Bar on a nice SA winter day. The patio area is large and great for groups, while the inside is a bar going down the length of the inside that started to get packed with people as we ate and drank outside. They are really a beer and wine bar, with lower alcohol (like wine vodka). Beer selection was good and they pour a large pint + of draft beers. The bartender was friendly and gave some recommendations for food (I will have to come back for the carnitas!). We decided to go with the Sishitos & Sausage and the Nacos for my vegetarian friend. It was a good start for our night to hold us over for our bar hoppin' night!

    We were surprised to have the place all to ourselves but the food was lights out delicious--Fritos bean pie and the brisket biscuits. Super fast and warm service and great Día de los muertos vibe. Yum.

    The Jazz Jam!

    The Dakota is one of the only bars I know that has a weekly jazz jam (theirs is on Thursdays). My boyfriend and I have been coming here for awhile, but I love the ambiance of the place and the music. My favorite dish is of course the Hardcore Corn because I love elote and hot cheeto's. It's great getting to come out after school and listen to the jam sessions. The full bar is a great plus.

    If you are in the mood for a quick cocktail to take with you as you walk around in The Pearl area…read moreyou need to come here to Park Bar. Service is super quick here especially if you are trying to grab something quickly and continue your exploration around this area. The price point on the cocktails and beers here are super reasonably especially for the area. Happy Hour is daily too so don't sleep on going over here to grab a drink or a canned beer The colorful menus draw you in besides the charm of the nicest bartenders here. There is a drink for every drinker here that includes non-alcoholic (NA) drinks as well so don't be shy. If you see something on the menu that calls you get it. Your drinks will be carefully created right in front of you and with the freshest herbs (like lavender and dry fruits) and juices you can find on this side of 281. My friend and I ended up getting a couple of drinks off their seasonal menu. I got a lavender lemonade and she opted for an Aperol spritz cocktail that we took outside to enjoy the sunshine while daydreaming about living inside The Pearl. The amount of history in this building where the Park Bar is located is remarkable and fascinating. It was super cool to be drinking in such a historic building that used to be a bottling department that would bottle the beers back in the day.
