Note: Bolsa has closed and been replaced by Encina, from the same culinary team and even better. The following entry is historical.

This Oak Cliff spot is still one of the hottest haunts in town. The inventive wine menu here is grouped into price points, and the bar serves up the most creative seasonal cocktails around. (We suggest any of the champagne concoctions or the spicy Passion Whiskey Fizz, which, by popular demand, seems to stay on the menu year-round.) The covered patio is a perfect post-work hangout. No need to dress up. If there's anything you want to know about imbibing, ask bartender Lucky Campbell. He's truly an expert. If you're looking to drink on the cheap, visit Bolsa during happy hours- drinks are $5 a pop. Enjoy brunch with $10 bottomless mimosas on Sundays from 11am-3pm.
