Toby Keith's I Love This Bar & Grill
A business only a Honkytonk U grad could start

10110 Technology Blvd E; Dallas

Toby Keith went from working an oil derrick, to touring with Nugent, to hopefully putting Nugent in a stranglehold after one too many practical jokes involving arrows. Now he's bringing his I Love This Bar & Grill to Dallas, opening tomorrow where the AMC Grand once stood. There's a lot going on, so here's an overview:

A Sprawling Layout: The massive 33000sqft, 1900+ capacity bar/concert space/resto sports a 96ft, 125-seat guitar-shaped main bar pouring over three dozen beers, plus semi-private sponsored "huts", a soundproof VIP room, and a spacious dance floor flanked by twin bars, or where Jenna and Barb should've gone instead of Chuy's.

Drinks Named After Songs: Play voodoo games with a spiced rum/sour apple schnapps Creole Woman, get made in the shade with Trailerhood Tea (vodka, teq, rum, gin, splash of Shiner), or buy a tequila/watermelon schnapps "Stays in Mexico" for... every men's suit salesman from South Dakota in the house?

Burgers Named After Songs: All of 'em come with "Freedom Fries", and the basic cheese version is called the American Soldier, though if you go for the veggie-patty option you might be a Canadian Soldier. Other notable beefwiches: the "Should've Been A Cowboy" (bac, cheddar, onion rings, Toby's BBQ) and the "She's a Hottie" (pepperjack, Hatch chiles, crispy onion straws).

Not-burgers Not Named After Songs: Give your heart a workout with a fried bologna sandwich (seared w/ onions & cheese, slathered w/ Miracle Whip, on grilled garlic toast), red, white & blue-chipped Smokehouse Nachos, or salmon that's been marinated in bourbon for 24hrs -- which shouldn't get you too tipsy, but's still more booze than the Nuge claims to've had his entire life. Unless he was joking about that...


Active duty servicemen get their first cheeseburger, fries & drink on the house. Check out the full menu/more things named after songs right here.
