A wreck of a rec room

Cozy's shows there isn't much in a name, after all

Al-Amir seems to be doing a little too much as it strains to capture authenticity (though interestingly, their relatively diverse wine list has no Lebanese wines). In the process, it chokes on its own inattention to, and sloppiness with, details. A structural renovation coupled with a concerted focus on the menu, from basic ingredients to presentation--in essence, a hike back to square one--could make this one of the more pleasantly distinctive venues in Dallas.

Al-Amir. 7402 Greenville Ave., Suite 101. (214) 739-2647. Open Monday-Thursday, 5-11 p.m.; Friday and Saturday, 5 p.m.-2 a.m.; and Sunday, 11 a.m.-10 p.m.
