Screen Door

1722 Routh Street, Suite 132
(One Arts Plaza)
Dallas, TX 75201
214-720-9111
Website
Billing itself as an amalgamation of traditional Southern cookery and modern culinary style, Screen Door is really both and neither of these, though it splits its menu into then and now. It mixes the heartiness and nomenclature of Southern cuisine with a little European flavor. Hence foie gras with pickled onions becomes liver and onions. Fried green tomatoes with a little mozzarella is an insalata caprese with a twang. Screen Door has insanely good fried chicken and fried quail, plus delicious sliced duck on braised cabbage with a crock of corn spoon bread topped with duck cracklings. Killer cherry cobbler too.
