Ginger’s is a subterranean cocktail lounge tucked beneath the streets of Dallas’s East Quarter corridor. Originally conceived as the speakeasy arm of Sushi | Bar, it has grown into a standalone destination. You enter via a striking neon green sign over a nondescript door. From there, a staircase descends into the bar’s interior — a space of deep shadows, leather booths, warm wood, and cinematic flair. The decor balances retro and modern: lustrous surfaces, moody textures, and just enough theatricality to elevate without overdoing it. Cocktails are center stage. Their menu includes imaginative house creations and refined takes on classics. For instance: Ginger’s Old Fashioned with Texas rye, chai demerara, bitters Desert Moon, with Los Magos sotol, pomegranate agave, blood orange & fresh lime, rimmed with Tajín And riffs like Velvet Vice, Kiwi Daddy, That’s Just a Friend… and Barrel-Aged Black Manhattan are on their other house / classic cocktails list. The cocktail menu also includes non-alcoholic options, wine, and spirits. Ginger’s tends to keep the ambiance stylish but relaxed — it encourages patrons to “come as you are” rather than enforcing a rigid dress code. The service is polished and attentive, though some reviewers note occasional minor awkwardness in seating or greeting — especially when the bar is busy. Music and lighting shift subtly over the night: early hours are more lounge & conversation, later hours bring more energy. The playlists, lighting cues, and pacing support that evolution. All told: Ginger’s is a bar about mood, craft, and sensory experience. It’s not about volume or spectacle — it’s about being immersed in a stylish space, enjoying nuanced drinks, and letting the ambiance carry you.
