DFW Airport/Westin - nearby good restaurants please

Hi Looking for the best 2 restaurants near the Dallas Ft. Worth Airport or the Dallas Westin Airport. Can be steak place or Italian or similar. Business dinner-boss wants to impress/money not an issue. Thanks.

p.s. I did search the Dallas threads first but came up blank -- so thanks!

Pappas Steakhouse is about 10 miles from the airport, and would be an excellent choice. See their recent review: http://www.guidelive.com/portal/page...L&item_id=4496

If that is too far, there should be some good restaurants in Grapevine, which you can search for using guidelive.com. In my opinion, that is more useful than citysearch for Dallas.

Thanks beckytx!
My boss wanted me to ask the Westin concierge (he doesn't know Fodors) and that person suggested: Bob's or JR's steakhouse. Do you have an opinion on those? Thanks again.

How far is your boss willing to travel - there are lots of very good restaurants within a 20 to 30 minute drive of the airport and or Westin

Bob's and JR's are Ok but not great.

I love Bob's! In my opinion, its the best steak in Dallas. I forgot there was one in Grapevine now. I'm not familiar with JR's but feel confident recommending Bob's.

Come up to Grapevine! We have a brand-new Bob's (chain), Silver Fox (local) and Kirby's (local), all of which are really nice and do excellent steaks. Of the three, for a business dinner, I'd honestly go with Silver Fox.
