Gas Monkey Bar and Grill

[Equinox 95]

I'm sure the Gas Monkey Bar and Grill is touristy. But is the food good? We're going to be staying just down the street from there this weekend, and my wife mentioned she might like to check it out. Maybe go to Gas Monkey Live.

 

Has anyone here been there?

It's not bad. Try the beans with the brisket in them.....fantastic

I have been there to see Dale Watson and a couple of other country shows.  It has a good beer selection but i didnt eat while i was there. It's a good place to see music and the food is probably decent.

Food is just okay.  I’d say it’s around Twin Peaks level.

Well, he's from Dallas. What did you expect? Him not to be a huge douche?

I don't remember what used to be in that spot, but I remember I liked it ok. Better than the Gas Monkey for sure.

I think the one in DFW is closing soon...maybe already. I don't get to D terminal that often.

 Never met him but went to the same high school in Ft. Worth.  I'm older, not tatted up and of course not a douche so I don't relate to the whole Gas Monkey Tom Fuckery . Doucheyness aside he certainly did capitalize on the given opportunity. If I had his money I'd throw mine away.

I never quite understood why his ability to turn beaters into shitty "custom" cars would lead to "hey I bet he could run a restaurant and club, too", but I guess that's the cult of personality at work.

Hey I’m from Dallas and I resemble that remark!

But seriously...huge douche even by Dallas standards.  And trust me, I am an authority on Dallas douchebags.  Even by Dallas semi-celebrity standards, huge douche.

He's just the money, name and personality behind it. Doubt he could run it if he tried.

Well anyway, the beans with bbq brisket are still pretty good.

Surly staying on point again. Every topic devolves to pick one:

douche bag, titties, Trump or Austin BBQ scene.

We wound up bypassing GMBG and had Italian at a place in garland instead.
