Capital for Dallas
restaurant operators.

Dallas is one of the strongest restaurant markets in the country — and one of the most competitive. The steakhouse density across Uptown and the Park Cities sets a high bar for fine dining. The barbecue tradition across the metro competes head-to-head with that steakhouse establishment for group-dining and special-occasion spend. Knox-Henderson and Lower Greenville have built dense restaurant rows with strong bar programs. Bishop Arts has become a destination for chef-driven independents. And Las Colinas, the Galleria corridor, and the corporate office clusters along the Tollway drive enormous weekday-lunch and group-dining revenue that national lenders rarely model correctly.

Goliath has been funding restaurants since 2009 with a deep Texas book. Our underwriters read Dallas deposit statements every day and know how Cowboys home Sundays, Mavericks playoff runs, SMU football weekends, the State Fair of Texas in late September and early October, and bowl-game events all show up. We don't ask Dallas operators to justify patterns we read across the entire market every month — we already know what they look like.

The neighborhoods we fund every week

The bar-and-restaurant cluster in Deep Ellum along Elm and Main. Steakhouse and fine-dining concepts across Uptown and McKinney Avenue. The neighborhood independents and chef-driven concepts in Bishop Arts and Oak Cliff. The brunch, dinner, and late-night density across Knox-Henderson and the Knox Street corridor. Lower Greenville gastropubs and patio concepts. Corporate-lunch and group-dining operators in Las Colinas and the Galleria corridor. Barbecue institutions across the metro. We fund all of them on the same six-month, $15K-deposit framework.

What our typical Dallas deal looks like

An Uptown steakhouse drawing $150,000–$300,000 to refresh a tired dining room before bowl season. A Deep Ellum bar group bridging a slow August with $60,000 against fall football weekends. A Bishop Arts operator pulling $80,000 to expand into the storefront next door. A Knox-Henderson concept replacing kitchen equipment with a same-day $45,000 wire. A Las Colinas catering operation consolidating stacked advances into a single 18-month structure. These are the deals we close most weeks.
