Bobbie's Airway Grill is an upscale-casual American restaurant located in the Preston Hollow neighborhood of Dallas. Owned by the team behind il Bracco, the restaurant pays homage to neighborhood history and is named after the owner's mother, Bobbie, and the former tenant, Dougherty’s Airway Pharmacy.
Dining & Menu Highlights
The menu focuses on elevated American classics prepared with high-quality ingredients and a "live-fire" grill fueled by Texas Post Oak.
- Signature Starters: Notable items include The Oaks Dip (horseradish pimento dip served with Fritos), hand-made buttermilk biscuits with orange marmalade, and crispy oysters.
- Main Courses: Popular dishes include the Jumbo Lump Crab Cake, double-cut Barbecue Pork Chop, and the Turf Club sandwich (shaved turkey on house-baked brioche).
