Last fall, Sky Creek Kitchen + Bar opened up inside of the Delta Dallas Southlake Hotel to the delight of local foodies. Since then, it has continued to provide great food and service to all its diners.
“I want guests to feel like Sky Creek Kitchen + Bar is an extension of their own living room,” executive chef Enam Chowdhury says.
Combining influences from the Southwest, Latin America and the low country, Sky Creek Kitchen + Bar’s menu is full of elevated dishes that feel familiar and taste delicious. Start your night off with a luxurious libation like the Sky Creek Margarita, which comes complete with Patrón Silver, Curaço, agave nectar and fresh lime juice, or the Sky Creek Standard, which features Woodford Reserve, Curaço, nocello and angostura bitters.
After a cocktail or two, it’s time to dig into Sky Creek’s offerings. One of its starters, the roasted chipotle chicken tortilla soup, is served with diced avocado, queso Oaxaca, grilled elote, smoky tomato relish and corn tortilla strips. Meanwhile, the roasted beets come prepared with Paula’s goat cheese, a watercress-arugula salad and spiced walnuts.
“The menu was articulated in conjunction with the father of Southwestern cuisine, Dean Fearing,” Enam says. “The flavors are most representative of what we are trying to achieve here.”
After indulging in the appetizers, dive into the Backyard BBQ Chicken, which comes loaded with mashed potatoes, sauteed green beans, braised cipollini onion and apple butter marmalade. For a heartier bite, the ancho chili sorghum-glazed lamb shank is accompanied by creamy jalapeno grits and fried okra.
Seafood aficionados will love the Gulf Shrimp Soft Taco, which comes with charred black beans, guacamole, jalapeno jack cheese, roasted tomato salsa and jalapeno crema, while the Crispy Pan-seared Gulf Shore Crab Cake, served with charred sweet chili pepper relish and mustard tarragon sauce, will satisfy anyone’s appetite.
And every great meal needs to end with a dessert. Sky Creek’s peanut butter bar features peanut butter and white chocolate mousse, dark chocolate ganache, bacon ice cream and a salted peanut crumble, while the flourless chocolate Mexican cinnamon cake comes complete with mocha-cayenne whipped cream and raspberry.
“This is a restaurant where the executive chef goes table to table helping guests navigate the food and wine menu,” Enam says. “This is a restaurant that has a soul and makes sure every single person is taken care of.”
