Trip report:
The staff was very friendly. I happened to be there for lunch on a Sunday, so the Dallas Cowboys game was on, which being Dallas and all, you have to allow for that! The manager told me that ordinarily they play a variety of music, rock and alternative being the norm. He seemed quite receptive to my suggestion to play surf music (for which it's more suited than exotica) so cross your fingers that you'll hear Dick Dale rather than Matchbox 20 next time. I cannot report on the cocktails, as was visit was only Sunday lunch, after a night of great garage music at another new Dallas spot, The Double Wide (yes, as in "trailer," complete with a tornado on the roof); the day staff was eager to please, so I'd bet that the night bartenders would be willing to try different recipes if requested. I look forward to another trip to Dallas to do more "research" on their bartenders' skills.
Here's a thread with a discussion about the spot and a tad more info:

You Dallas folks please fill in the evening info and add/correct anything you can.
