Leela’s Raw Bar & abv establishment ("Leela's & abv") will become new destinations in Dallas’s ever-burgeoning Lower Greenville neighborhood. An upscale dining and drinking concept (created by the team behind the popular Feed Company Eatery and Bourbon Lounge) will combine two bars under one roof. The complementary pairing will provide approachable wines on tap paired with creative raw bar plates downstairs (Leela's), plus craft cocktails in a fun, laidback environment upstairs (abv).

Sketch of the first floor concept, Leela's Raw Bar.
Inspired by Napa Valley, Leela’s New American menu will serve seasonal, market-driven plates and over fifty wines both on tap and by the bottle. The share-heavy menu allows diners to enjoy charcuterie boards, bruschetta, ceviche and fresh pasta made from scratch. Oysters will be sourced exclusively from North America and will reflect the best of what is available. An open-concept kitchen, oyster shucking station and a grand meat slicing counter enhance the convivial atmosphere. Outdoor seating will also be available.
The second level will host abv establishment. Guests will sip prohibition-style cocktails and order from a thoughtful menu of light snacks (think flavored popcorns and sliders). Access to the cocktail bar will be directly from the street, where a cheetah print staircase and grand chandelier let you know you’re in the right place. A something-for-everyone space, the bar will provide an easy place to mingle while the lounge areas will offer a more private experience.

Always a popular nightlife destination, Lower Greenville has recently witnessed an ascension in fine dining. Leela’s & abv synthesize these worlds for an experience that is wholly new and oh-so-right for the neighborhood. Additionally, it will be only the sixth restaurant in Lower Greenville to maintain a late-night permit. This allows patrons to enjoy both of the bars until 2 a.m., providing a more upscale alternative to most of Dallas’s post-midnight options.
At 1914 Greenville Ave, Leela’s & abv sit among one of Dallas’s few walkable streets. Two adjacent parking lots solve the notorious headache that is parking in Lowest Greenville.
