On my side of the metroplex, The Usual is located by downtown, on the medical district side of FTW. Never gets TOO packed, its a GREAT place to take a lady.

Very classy establishments. Drinks are slightly pricey, but nothing that will break the bank. Has an italian restuarant next door that will come over and serve you if you're hungry or bring your own food. they have tables and booths.

The bartenders there are amazing, using organic garnishes, they make their own syrups, they even weigh out every single part of the drink. Girls are very impressed by this. The owner, Brad, usually is working is super cool. If you go enough, its a DHV to have the owner know you by first name basis.

Anyway, this is GREAT for day 2's or taking a girl out for drinks.

Crowd is very elcetic. (pic below is when they weren't done building it)

CAUTION- The drinks are STRONG, I would say 2 max.
