Default Best place to take the GF to dinner in DFW

I bet her that tech would beat TCU. She won, so i have to take her out to a nice place. SHe said she wants to get dressed up. Yall have anything in mind that would be suitable? BTW I'm in Dallas, she's in Ft. Worth.

Houston's in Dallas is super nice and kinda expensive. ribs are like $22 and steak is $24 or something. you cant talk on cells. most people are quite dressed up there. got a guy playing a piano also. i really like it. just a thought.

Ruth's Chris is overrated

Abacus if you want one of the best restaurants in Dallas
Nick and Sam's if you want a great steak

both are in uptown Dallas

I like Fogo but its really not that dress uppy.

Cattlemans in Ft. Worth at the Stockyards
good steak, nice setting, not outrageous, but still a nice place.
Probably not as high end as some others, but its a thought.
