- SStephenDallas - Fort Worth •2 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoA New Neighborhood Favorite! Pillar Bistro exceeded all expectations. The service was exceptional from start to finis. To kick it off the Zero Degrees martini and espresso martini we had at the bar was the perfect start to the evening. The Hamachi and Apple and Beef Tartare were fresh and flavorful, the Grilled Leeks had a rich, smoky depth, and the Fried Chicken was perfectly crispy and delicious . We finished with the Coconut Cream Pie, which cannot be skipped. Pillar is a fantastic addition to the neighborhood and easily one of the best restaurants in Dallas. Highly recommend! Already can’t wait to go back.More infoPillarPrice: Expensive• American• Oak Cliff•4.9

Since my first dinner here, I have always thought that everything about Stock & Barrel is exceptional - the food, the service, the atmosphere.
