So far, the best bar i've found near the Worthington Hotel is Fox and Hound (mmmmm...fat tire). Pour House was a bit seedy.
Any other suggestions in walking distance?

Fox and Hound and PourHouse are nice but tend to be a bit lower end.
Try 8.0 or the Flying Saucer - owned by the same folks. 8.0 is a bit nicer and has a great drink menu. Flying Saucer will remind you of a smaller scale version of the Brickskeller.
Wish I had seen this sooner... I was looking for a drinking buddy last night and ended in downtown. Dallas, that is.

Downtown during the week sucks. On a Friday or Saturday night (or even a Thursday), however, I would have to disagree with you as it is generally a full tilt party going on and the streets are packed.
Its much better than when I was a teen... before the Bass brothers "bought" downtown, it was pretty ghetto... not safe to venture out after 5 pm.
