Best in DFW

The Knox-Henderson linchpin is the only boom-boom room to crack this top 10. Its virtues: DJs who don’t program down to their audience, a narrow rectangular space that creates a sense of moment whether it’s packed or thinly populated, buttery lighting and recently freshened décor.

Best Bar of the 00’s

Opened in the hard door era following the success of Sense, it both outdrew and outlasted its sibling. The ownership changed, but that’s about it. Candleroom still has the same bartending crew, a similar plush design and stellar DJs. And if you want to get a sense of the decade, it is still the place to go.
