Le Calamar, a new venture from the team behind Underdog, will take over the shuttered Korean restaurant's South 1st Street space on Thursday, May 29.

Here's what to know before booking a reservation.

What's on the menu?

Dubbed "a Texan perspective on the modern French bistro," the new restaurant's menu features starters like oysters charentaise, main courses like grilled trout, and a daily selection of charcoal-cooked cuts.

Boozy beverages

Curated by acclaimed sommelier Richard Hargreave, Le Calamar's wine list boasts French, Mexican, and Texas bottles from independent growers. Cocktails fall into three main categories: martinis, Manhattans, and mezcals.
