Loro

Loro is an Asian-influenced smokehouse that comes to Dallas by way of Austin, and is from the chefs behind Uchi and Franklin Barbecue. The dining room at the East Dallas spot is huge (there’s also a new location in Addison, plus two in Houston) and is great for an easy lunch or low-key dinner. Grab a seat and place your order at the bar, which should absolutely include the smoked prime bavette, chicken karaage, and candied kettle corn. Happy Hour runs from 2-6pm during the week, and there's a rib special after 4pm on Sundays and Mondays.
