It’s been so long since we’ve heard anything about The Establishment, the oyster bar connected to Smyth at 4513 Travis Street—I almost forgot it existed. According to the Dallas Morning News, though, the oyster-centric restaurant has started dinner service already.
Michael Martensen’s walk-out last November from Cedars Social and Smyth left owner Brian Williams running the show. Martensen was deeply involved with all three concepts before his departure.
Before this week, The Establishment hosted oyster jams (aka parties), and its Facebook page has been semi-active since October 2012. Almost a year and a half later, The Establishment is announcing that doors are open.
