This evening the wifey and me had some bidness downtown. So once we were free it was time to get Twisted. Twisted Root is on Commerce St just east of 75 in the Deep Ellum area. At dinner time there is no problem being down here, but an hour after dark, I don't want to be here. Twisted is 1/2 hamburger joint and 1/2 watering hole. There really aren't that many people partaking of party beverages, but it is there. I always look forward to praying before my meal in a watering hole. We certainly effect a higher percentage of people than in Wendy's in Mesquite.
Our favorite burger here is the Ranch Hand. This is a peppercorn burger, with swiss cheese, ranch dressing, BACON, lettuce and onion. In our opinion this is the best hamburger in Dallas (a very very very close 2nd is the Incredible Burger at Zeke's).
Tonight we also ordered fried pickles. The best fried pickles are Razzoo's, but Twisted is the 2nd best. These are some pretty good ickles here. Make sure you ask for the chipotle ranch dip sauce, you don't get it without asking for it.
The one issue here is parking. It is either park in a parking lot for $5 to $8 or park at a meter. We had to make the block to find a meter open tonight.
We always enjoy the burger and extras and the people watching here. Speaking of extras, they have the fried ride (fried onion strings, fried pickles, fried sweet potatoes, and fried green beans). Take your antacid with you, there is so much oil in this that you will be some kind of miserable at the end. But it sure is fun getting there.
Giv'n em a 8.75
