New American Restaurants in Dallas, TX

“We were in town celebrating my daughers birthday, we stopped here for dinner. The prices wer ereasonable and we all had a great time. I feel the service was on point. We loved the food! Very unique, and the steak didn't require any sauces or anything. Lovely dinner and looking forward to coming back. Thank you for making my daughters birthday!“

“Talk about welcoming?! Absolutely beautiful place, music fun to listen to, food by far sends my tastebuds out of this world!I had the Truffle Mac & Cheese Croquettes - packed with flavor, creamy! Slight kick from the Sriracha Aioli! And very thankful for the greens to balance it out!Variety of drinks to choose from but very thankful for the mocktails! I had the Hibiscus No-Jito! The zing from the ginger beer, with a sweet and sour after taste from the Hibiscus and the lingering mint to finish it off! Definitely trying the Texas Sunset next time!Flair was so helpful with the menu and Laura on top always running back and fourth attending all guests but keep a smile on her face! Can’t wait to bring my friends out here!“

“This is definitely an atmosphere. Mood lighting, ambiance, and nice views for window seats. There is plenty of seating and friendly staff. Most people were dressed business casual.Great for lunch, business lunch/dinner, happy hour, dates, after work meet-up, dinner meet-up, and dine in alone. Nice bar area.Unique menu options, appropriate portions, and tasty dishes. Crab nachos are my favorite.Bathrooms are clean. Most seating is comfortable. There is a gorgeous space to rent for private parties or work parties. Downtown parking in nearby garages or metered with 2hr max. If there is a wait, the eyeball park is next door.My go-tos are crab nachos and pick 2/3 smart bowls.“

“I eat dinner in this area all the time, and I can’t believe I missed this place. This is one of the rare times I ate an appetizer, a main course, and a dessert, and completely finished it without taking any leftovers, it was that good. My server was Elena and she was purely lovely. Knowledgeable, friendly, and great attention to detail. Definitely coming back, enjoy the photos. You’ll have to figure out what they are yourself when you dine in.“

“We spent $1000 on a meal for four with good wine. I had a steak and added their seafood skewer to it. It was one of the top meals I’ve had in the last five years! Shrimp, King crab, scallops, and lobster with a steak was amazing. The Bucatini appetizer with wine was amazing. I wish they didn’t have loud weird music. I wish the server had done a better job, keeping up with pouring the wine for us. That said it was one of the top experiences I have had in Dallas.“

“What a great addition to Northpark mall, I mean it's literally a complete vibe from entry to exit. My husband and I always try different places while on DateDay or DateNight. We were out shopping for our home and both got pretty hungry so I pulled up Yelp and saw that I bookmarked this plane due to all the advertisement I'd seen on socials about this new hotspot coming to Dallas. We quickly rolled over and shocked at how many people we there midday. We had a 40 min wait which I was okay with as the champagne was flowing and that kept me occupied ;-) We were approached and escorted to our table only after 15-20 mins. We had a great table with views around the restaurant. It was a high top in the bar area sorta. Our server helped us decide on our dishes and we both enjoyed them. My tacos were perfect, the fries could've been a bit more hot. My husband said his chicken parm was ok. The sushi roll was very tasty and fresh as well. I'd like to go back as they have Happy Hour 3-6 Monday - Friday. I'll update based on that and provide insight.“

“Stellar experience - top notch cocktails, warm and skilled service, pleasant modern ambiance, and most importantly great food. I'll write a longer review when we return, which we surely will, as this is one of the few high-end places in Dallas that's definitely worth the money.“

“Bright, vibrant art makes this place feel very cheerful. The fun, quirky ingredient combos in the tacos made it difficult to choose just one!The music on the patio is club level, so stay indoors if you want to carry on a conversation.The food was fresh and very well prepared. The poblano salsa was more of a dip than a soupy salsa consistency.“

“The new space is very modern and clean! Lots of TVs and great happy hour specials. Sat at the bar and had their grilled burger sliders, which were tasty (2 come w/HH special). My fiancé had the tuna poke stack and she said it was “superb” and would order again. Our bartender Sabrina was super nice and makes an excellent espresso martini!“

“Listen everyone this food was AMAZING!! It was so good I’m definitely returning tomorrow!! Nisha was my server and I was extremely pleased with her service. Nash was so pleasant and professional upon my arrival. Carlos the chef was definitely 5 stars!!“

“The photos speak for themselves. The food is SO good, service is incredible and they have great conversations with you too. Highly recommend getting a reservation as this place gets packed. We’ve gone back twice already and want to go back again!“

“Classic Dallas elegance. And very "old school." We went for cocktails. Superb and great fun. So laid back. It's not true Dallas without a quick jaunt to NM downtown, followed by a late afternoon visit to The Mansion.Parking: Valet.“

“Chef Abraham puts out a fantastic dinner. Mary T is fabulous out in the fornt of the house and we always have a great time. Last night was a retiremnt celebratory supper for a friend and everything was just as top notch as always. Thanks y'all!“

“I had the Chaco Oaxaca burger. That was a tasty burger. It had great flavor. The place was packed for lunch. The servers were really busy. The outside isn’t much to look at but that seems to be common in the area. I was told the burgers were great and they weren’t lying.“

“delicious delicious food, sooo yummy and they give u sm for the price like we were FULL. the place is so cute, plays a great variety of music, and the whole concept is so cool and unique. the employees are the SWEETEST people ever, like seriously some of the kindest people ive ever met. if youre looking for restaurants please go and support a fantastic family owned business!!“

“When can we return??? It was a GREAT experience from the time we checked in with the hostess. There were 3 in our party. The good was good, the service was excellent, and ambience was perfect. The popover with strawberry butter was so unexpectedly tasty!!! Thank you!“

“We thoroughly enjoyed our evening at AT Bistro! The ambiance is upscale, classy, and comfortable, without being stuffy. We arrived earlier than planned and had a drink at the bar before dinner - the bartenders were great and the wine list was phenomenal. At dinner, the zucchini appetizer was an unexpected favorite, and the steak tartare, escargot, and foie gras were all quite good. Without a doubt, the service and level of attention we received was unmatched - our waiter, the manager, and the owner all went out of their way to make us feel welcome and to ensure we had a pleasant experience. We were truly impressed and can't wait to return again soon!“

“We have been here a few times on Sundays and food is always fresh and tasty, service is always great! The staff go above and beyond to make sure you're taken care of, always friendly smiles, we will definitely be visiting again, ambiance is great, they do have private events at times so I would contact the restaurant first, we found out recently about the private events, the restaurant had closed early for the event but even at that the staff were still so friendly and even offered us complimentary chips and salsa for takeout, we kindly declined but was very nice of them to offer.“

“The food was increíble with unique flavors and innovative dishes, but what really sold me on this place is knowing that it is going to support the youth and helping them become thriving adults! Please eat here you are supporting an incredible cause and getting an incredible meal to boot!“

“I've been to this location many times and always have an amazing experience! The food, drinks and atmosphere are incredible! The staff are all friendly and knowledgeable. Special shout out to our most recent server Berny, she made sure we were taken care of!“

“High end restaurant that actually met expectations. I came here on a Monday night for a business dinner. Valet parking was easy to use and the rate was $5 up to three hrs, and $15 for three hrs or more. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and exactly what you expect of a high end establishment. For our appetizers we had the seafood tower and calamari. The seafood tower was underwhelming, especially the very small oysters used. The calamari on the other hand was delicious and it had a Thai flavor that accentuated the dish. I started my meal with the lobster bisque and the soup was outstanding. I wish the lobster pieces were a little bigger, but overall the soup was top three all time for me. They do pour the soup over the lobster table side, which is a nice touch. For my entree I had the New York strip with a blue cheese crust. The steak was perfectly cooked, but the crust was a bit overdone. I would have preferred a cheesier texture over the crunchier option they use here. We tried numerous sides throughout the meal and the spinach was the star. The brussel sprouts were pretty bland and the asparagus was thin compared to other high end restaurants. Service overall was good and the staff were very attentive. The bar drinks were inconsistent with heavy pours one round and light pours the others. Overall this is a restaurant I would recommend if you're looking to celebrate a special occasion. The opportunities I witnessed are outweighed by the great ambiance and good food.“

“I had an absolutely delightful experience at Beverly's Bistro and Bar, thanks to our exceptional waiter, Tito. He went above and beyond to ensure we not only enjoyed our food but also felt truly cared for throughout our dining experience. Tito's attentiveness and kindness exemplified the epitome of outstanding customer service. Without a doubt, we'll be returning to Beverly's, eager to experience Tito's exceptional service once again.“

“BEST BRUNCH IN DALLAS The croissants are freshly made and perfectly buttery and flaky and layered! The pancakes are delicious, and the pork belly is spicy and savory. Service is great and ambiance is very industrial but very chic and modern at the same time. Make resys ahead of time because it gets packed.“

“We finally made it out (a few weeks ago - I’ve been on the road & didn’t get to this) to our local favorite chef, Luke Rogers restaurant, ‘Beckley 1115’. Extremely proud of his accomplishments! This is a hidden gem & worth the visit. If you were lucky enough to taste his food while he was at the, ‘Cathedral Italian Bistro’ (Plano), you will be in for a treat! Beckley is a comfortable small (currently serving wine, but have applied for full liquor license) eclectic experience, with full focus on quality ingredients & mindfulness on the food/flavor. ❤️(heads up- name change in the works)Next time you are in Dallas for an event, or live in the vicinity, go give it a try! BTW, they have a nice wrap around patio too??“

“This experience was unparalleled. I took my father out for a steak after he had been sidelined for some time with health issues. Starting at the host stand, they were super accommodating, and really went the extra mile to treat him as a special guest. We enjoyed a bourbon prior to dinner, and an excellent Wagyu Carpaccio with arugula, pickled beats, shaved manchego, and a spicy mayo base remoulade. The flavors were magnificent. We both enjoyed a 7oz filet with the cognac pepper and hollandaise sauce, which were a perfect accompaniment. Their wine selection by the glass was impressive; my father had a glass of Peju Merlot, and I had a glass of Threfethen Cabernet. Dean Fearing stopped by our table to say hello and paid his respects. The entire experience was well worth the money. I highly recommend this place.“

“Went for happy hour. It was our second time there in a while and we always like the vibes of Rye. Shame to see to that their amazing espresso martini is no longer on happy hour menu, but their old fashioned is quit good as well. We opted to get everything on the happy hour menu. The Icelandic hotdog was exquisite and the best thing on the HH menu. Pork belly taco - great. Fry bread - ok the bread was fine, but I have a sensitive nose so I thought there cheese or butter it came with smelled like a wet towel. That said my wife said it was good, so maybe I don't know anything lol. Classic burger - I remembered this being good last time, but it wasn't great. I thought the bread was a little dry and the meat was overdone. Wouldn't get this again. Fried mushroom - this was delicious. Chicken taco special - this one was super spicy and I think they overdone it on certain ingredient. Maybe paprika? Didn't like it. While the food was mixed, the HH is a great value, great drinks and great vibe. Service was friendly and quick too.“

“Decent brunch spot that has good live music. I got the grilled cheese with the tomato bisque soup, which was decent. The service was very attentive and courteous. With the live music, it is difficult to hear a conversation with whoever you come with.Vegetarian options: You can get one of their pizzas or the triple cheese grilled cheese. Their dinner menu had a few more, but those are not available for brunch.“

“My girls and I had an amazing experience! Our waiter Victor was very attentive, very impressionable and kind . It was my friend's 24th birthday and he went out of his way to bring her a cupcake with a sparkler to make it special for her. I suggest the rigatoni if you do stop by ! If in Texas again , we will be visiting.“

“Such a great experience coming here. We walked out of the apartment and decided let's try something new. Very glad we stopped here. My Reuben was delicious and my girlfriend thought her fish and chips were cooked excellent. The cocktails also had a great and fresh taste. We topped it off with the chocolate mousse and an espresso martini. We will definitely be coming back for a good date a few more cocktails.“

“We went there for lunch while we were visiting Dallas from California. The place has a nice vibe. We ordered 4 different veggie tacos that are on the menu, and the one with Cauliflower was the best followed by panner and then the tofu one. We didn't really like the mushroom one, as it didn't have much flavor compared to the others. Their nacho chips are good with the avocado, and the totter tots were good too (though a little unhealthy.) I would surely recommend this place for a nice good lunch.“

“I have heard great things about Wicked Butcher in Fort Worth, but the drive is not going to happen on a Saturday. So I was very excited about their opening in downtown! Starting off with the hostesses. Now, they really set the tone for a fantastic night. They were engaged, fun, welcoming, and definitely a highlight of starting the evening off well. We were greased with complimentary bubbles and led to the bar where we wanted to have a drink before dinner. The DJ was setting up, the energy was good, and the decor was beautiful. Just be warned- they don't mess with the drinks and they are strong (my compliments to the bartender!) Dinner, I got the beef Wellington and omg. It was so good. The pastry was light and flaky and I was so happy to see this dish on the menu. The whole dinner was fantastic, although not inexpensive. My grandmother always said you can rate a restaurant based on their bathrooms. And she was a smart lady so I willl continue to use her rules and give an enthusiastic recommendation for Wicked Butcher, with an extra star for their fabulous bathrooms.“

“We were a party of eight and the entrees ranged from wonderful (the salmon) to just ok (the chicken fried steak). The drinks were lovely; the service was solid; the music was nice. However, we'd have to say that Maribel (the hostess) was absolutely wonderful - funny, engaging, accommodating. She was the ideal person to have someone greeting guests and is enough of a reason to come back. Great service is a differentiator.“

“Food here was ahhhh-mazing! A place you can go to over and over, and never get tired of. My favorite dish was the snow crab scampi, which I almost didn't order I probably could have had 5 orders and I'm not a big seafood person.Salmon crispy rice was also fantastic, great flavor and textures throughout. Lobster escargot was scary to try, to be fair, I wasn't the one who ordered but I'm not a fan of escargot. Apparently, it's only called lobster escargot due to the dish it's cooked in and doesn't actually contain escargot--the puff pasty was golden, flaky and paired well.My least favorite was the pressed tuna. It has truffle oil and it was VERY overwhelming. Like, my nose doesn't even work, l've had 3 nasal surgeries and can't even smell farts...and I smelled this from a mile away. It was very potent and really killed the dish for us. The meatball was good but I think I prefer smaller meatballs although this giant one was cool to try once. Great staff, very accommodating and attentive. Bar seats are the best in the house! Will be back to try out happy hour (M-F 4-6 half off martinis and pizzas)“

“I posted about Bowen House and St. Martin's in the past, but we had another great experience I wanted to share with you. I had a business meeting at Bowen House and followed it up with dinner at St. Martin's last night. "It's rare you find restaurants/bars in your neighborhood that make you feel like you're at home because of the exceptional service." That was a direct quote from my friend who lives in the Dallas suburbs. Owner Pasha Heidari and his family makes sure you feel special from the moment you walk in. They're constantly greeting and chatting with patrons to ensure everyone feels like an important part of their family. You can catch Pasha in action in one of the photos. He's the don of the East Dallas restaurant scene. The staff also is trained to go above and beyond. Trenton, our bartender, overheard our conversation about different liqueurs and had us try something we never heard of called Amer Fleur de Joie. It's a delicious French Apertif that is basically a drinkable bitters. Amer means bitter in French but it is smooth and delicious. We were then offered a taste of Gran Patron because we were admiring the beautiful bottle on the top shelf. I'm not a big tequila lover but it was very smooth and delicious as a sipping spirit. The two delicious Bowen House whiskey cocktails seen in the photo are C. Montgomery Burns and There's Something About Mary. I highly recommend both if you enjoy whiskey. Here's to the amazing owners of some the best restaurants and bars we have in Dallas. Thank you and keep making us feel like royalty. Salute C. Montgomery Burns Scotch Sweet vermouth Espresso liqueur Braulio Amaro Chicory Pecan bitters (El Guapo) Woodford Reserve Sorghum & Sassafras bitters There's Something About Mary Whiskey Gran Classico Bitter Apertif Averna Amaretto Woodford Reserve Spiced Cherry bitters Saline“

“Midnight Rambller is a good place for a classic cocktail. I got an old fashioned which was pretty standard in price. There are some adventurous options on the menu as well. The lady who served us was nice. I don't hang out downtown often, but I will definitely need to revisit this place whenever I'm downtown again.“

“I absolutely loved Georgie restaurant! It is exceptionally good, and Chef RJ, who hails from the French Laundry, brings his culinary expertise to every dish. If you have the chance to dine there, I highly recommend ordering the French onion soup, the gorgeous scallops ( almost too pretty to eat), the trout, tuna tartare, agnolotti and bread yes the bread is INSANE.The ambience at Georgie is super sexy, with beautiful people and a super chic atmosphere. They are really pushing the boundaries and creating some incredible culinary experiences. I am thrilled that the chef has made the move to Dallas, as it brings a much-needed addition to the city's dining scene.Not only is the food outstanding, but the service at Georgie is top-notch as well.Oh, and if you happen to visit for brunch, make sure to order the chicken and waffles. It is next level. Trust me, you'll thank me later!Also, the restaurant is a HUGE supporter of local farms and artisans.“

“This is a good place to get a bite and decompress after a long day at the convention center. So many food options. It could get pretty crowded and noisy downstairs but they have a lot of seating upstairs too including the patio which has an awesome view of the square. It is an easy 10mins walk from/to the convention center.“

“Loved our time at Gemma! We recently dined here for an intimate b-day celebration just my boyfriend and I! We were greeted warmly by the host staff and presented a sweet birthday card and complementary olives and pecans. The service was spot on and we received so many recommendations regarding food! We ordered the sticky ribs to start (yum!), pappardelle/steak frites for mains and tiramisu for dessert. Our waiter timed everything just as we requested and we were able to thoroughly enjoy our meal! The tiramisu even came out with a birthday candle (such a sweet touch!). Thank you for a great time!“

“Fantastic Monday happy hour. In town for work and this is a reliable, tasty option with very friendly staff. You can just order a few apps and be set, even if you’re feeling hungry. The ranch water is tasty if you’re craving something boozy, and the meatballs are stellar.“

“I last visited the HOB in 2012. At that time the Foundation Room was exclusive. Now it's open to all. The food is still 5 Star $$$. Although ordering is reminiscent of a Waffle House in the bad part of town; They asked to hold my credit card before taking my order.The members areas are roped off and small compared to the spacious setting. As a result the members were cramped together.My visit was 4/18/24, during the Roy Wood Jr. Show so maybe it's not usually as busy. Possibly they could expand the VIP seating during those times.I see no advantage to becoming a member other than the concert discounts and those are substantial.My dinner was wonderful, our table was great. Asking for the credit card first was ghetto.All in all, a mixed bag. I will be back, but with lowered expectations.“

“I came in curious about the menu and I left absolutely delighted. I shared the Teriyaki Chicken Bowl and the Thai Coconut Chicken Bowl with a friend. I was amazed by the freshness and flavor of all of the ingredients. It was very filling and you get a lot for your money. Not to mention the outstanding service that we received from the employees. I have definitely found my new healthy eating spot.“

“I went with my parents recently and we were overjoyed with the incredible service, unique cocktails and delicious food. We were there in the evening, and the dim lights gave a swanky yet welcoming vibe. We really enjoyed our meal and I WILL for sure be back! Here is what we ordered and our ratings: - Uca gnocchi (8/10) - Daily bread (9/10) - Sakura Pork "Au Poivre" (9/10) - Sgt. Pepper Goes to Jalisco (10/10) - Kohlrabi caesar (10/10) - Short rib (10/10) I'll never forget the caesar salad which was anything but traditional. The flavors were out of this world, but it still had the familiar cool crunch of a caesar salad. The short rib was also outstanding - one of the best pieces of beef I had in a long time. If you stop by, definitely go hungry so you can order the daily bread (seasonal) before enjoying your mains!“

“There's never been a visit to origin we haven't had the best food, the best host and servers, and wonderful atmosphere accommodating gluten dairy and soy free sensitivities. We are a family of three and drive from Fort Worth to have an easy and relaxing meal together so that mama doesn't have to cook or clean! Sounds pretty perfect to me. Will be returning every couple weeks because why not!“

“we had dinner at Georgie on Saturday night and we're blown away by the entire experience. the service was exceptional, all service staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. the food was phenomenal. we ordered a wide variety of dishes, including potato truffle churros, beet tartare, onion consomé, carrot hummus, agnolotti and a fantastic trout dish. the candy bar dessert was excellent. we sat outside and the vibe was relaxed and casual. loved and will certainly be back! chef RJ is a master in his craft!“

“Lounge Here is one of our favorite neighborhood restaurants and a go-to for outings with a small group of friends. Their cocktails are always just as refreshing as the kind souls serving them. And the small bites on the menu are great to be shared or savored solo! Definitely try their burgers, deviled eggs, and the Mac & Cheese. You will not be disappointed!“

“The seating is a bit cramped the closer you get to the kitchen, so just pray to not be seated there. Drinks are good, food is good, and nothing is dry which is a BLESSING with southern comfort food. If I'm trying to impress someone from out of town with good Dallas Southern food, with a hint of bougie, I'm bringing them here and feeling confident about it. I've been twice now and the service was lovely each time. My real recommendation is that Mac and cheese and the chicken fried steak. I hope this place is around for a good while.“

“I went in Tuesday I was greeted by the Manager and host later to find out the managers name was Gloria. I was impressed right away because Gloria was really kind and welcoming, hospitable from the go just a great and positive welcoming vibe. Thank you Gloria and the host too!!Then I Sat at the bar and both Chris and Chris were the bartenders they make a great team, great personalities, skill set, funny. Thank you!!Then the food arrived, the steak was cooked to perfection, mashed were amazing and the Brussels sprouts ? so good!!AnyhowThank you guys thank you Yard H! (:“

“Another fantastic location. Very clean, very friendly staff who pay attention to your needs and have lively conversation while serving quality food in a timely manner. The menu and taco of the week are always a very eclectic selection you simply cannot recreate nor find elsewhere.“

“Amazing service and yummy food.I was initially greeted by the hostess, I didn’t catch her name, but she was super friendly and didn’t make me feel silly for asking my silly question “do you do takeout” and then she directed me to the proper place to put my order in.And the cashier, Mike, was very kind and patient as I looked at the menu and very knowledgeable about today’s special which I did get - the ribeye quesadillas.The food was hot and ready and very tasty! Came with cream cheese, guacamole, and poco de gallo. The quesadillas were very fairly priced at $11 for 4 nicely filled triangles. But some of the items on the menu did seem on the upper end, not sure how big the meals are though.Not to mention the location, very cute square outside with lots of outdoor seating and pretty landscape away from the bustle of the busy streets.Definitely recommend!“

“The Henry is a lovely and inviting restaurant with a lively atmosphere. Delicious food and excellent service certainly helps too. Everything we have sampled here - cocktails, appetizers, entrees and desserts- have all been fantastic. And our servers have all been exceptional. I highly recommend giving it a try!“
