Dallas steakhouse Knife made Esquire's list of the 40 most important restaurants from 2010 to 2019. That's a big win nationally for chef John Tesar, as it's just one of two Texas restaurants on writer Jeff Gordinier's list.
When people look back on this arbitrary demarcation of years, these will be the restaurants that bring time-specific memories flooding back.
