“Lot’s of brews and good times!“

“Absolutely Amazing Food and Service. Ironic that Blaine and went to same school to play Baseball. He is a super cool Human. Blessed to have this experience !“

“Randomly picked this as a new spot. Pleasantly surprised! Shelly is an amazing bartender. She was happy, funny, abd attentive the whole night. Totally a place to come to, or return to! You shouldn't be disappointed if she takes care of you.“

“hello, we had great service through a young lady named Allie Waldron, we really appreciated her hospitality.“

“This place is ideal for relaxing with drinks and food. My wife and I enjoyed a fantastic happy hour, with prices that are quite reasonable. The service staff is wonderful but could benefit from being a bit more attentive.

Additionally, thank you for replacing the torn booth seats!“

“I’m there often for karaoke with friends. One of the best parts of this place is their service. Lexi is the absolute BEST!! She always remembers our drink orders. she’s fast and friendly. All the regulars love her. The food is actually really good and the vibe is so fun!“

“Pure social is a place to go food is good atmospheres great DJ Phil jams his butt on Friday Love the place great atmosphere like I said check it out“

“First time checking out The Tipsy Chicken on a Thursday and had a great time. Sophie and Amber were fantastic behind the bar — friendly, quick, and easy to talk to. Ryan and John were great company too, fun to swap stories with and hear about the local scene. Shoutout to the KJ for starting my night off right — after my first song he sent me over for a free shot, which Amber poured up. Little touches like that really make a place memorable. As someone who’s been in the DJ/KJ world for years, I’ve seen slow nights turn into packed houses with just a few creative twists: • “First-time singer” spotlights to get shy guests up. • Small bar tab or drink ticket for the crowd favorite performance. • Short themed rounds (“90’s throwbacks,” “duet challenge”) to keep things fresh. The Tipsy Chicken has an awesome base of people and staff — it wouldn’t take much to make Thursdays one of the busiest nights in town. I’ll definitely be back. Thanks for the hospitality, Sophie and Amber!“

“We love this place! Family owned and operated. Fantastic food and quick service. Great place to watch sporting events. Amazing outdoor seating next to a pond. Live music, karaoke nightly, trivia night on Wednesdays. There are two separate bars as well and the back bar has pool tables. Open until 2am 7 days a week.“

“We (family of 4 plus 2 grandparents) celebrated a birthday on a Friday night.
Daughter was excited to find salmon on the kids’ menu. Others in the party also had the salmon (either with the mushroom risotto or with the rice and zoodles). The salmon was cooked perfectly! Burgers are also great and so was the pesto primavera (with chicken).

Service was outstanding (thanks, Abby) and the deserts were excellent. We shared the chocolate cake (huge) and the peanut butter pie!

We’ll be back; likely on a Tuesday when the kids eat free!“

“Had a super great time!!! Jose and Fonzi were the BEST! Had never been there but will definitely go again!!!“

“Foxiis is such a great spot! The service was awesome — everyone was super friendly and made me feel welcome from the start.

And the patty melt? Unreal. Perfectly cooked, cheesy, and full of flavor — easily one of the best I’ve had anywhere.

If you haven’t been to Foxiis yet, you’re missing out. Great food, chill vibe, and amazing people!“

“Me & Wifey went for the 1st time bout a month ago. The original wings and the sweet potato fries are pretty good. The highlight for us tho are the drinks they are strong and good kool place to go if you wanna just chill and have a few drinks“

“Had a great experience with Prism! We ordered food for a teacher appreciation lunch, and everything was absolutely delicious. I really appreciated how easy it was to customize each dish to our preferences. The portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable—especially considering the quality of the food. What really stood out was the service—especially Sreekanth, Chef Kevin, and the amazing staff. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and made sure everything went smoothly without being overbearing. They’re also incredibly supportive of Frisco schools, which means a lot to our community. Definitely a place I’d come back to and happily recommend to others!“

“We love The Garage!!! Great place with good food and even better service! And they even did a karaoke night which was so much fun! I hope this becomes a regular thing!“

“Delicious blackened chicken sandwich! Wonderful staff 🩷“

“We absolutely love this location, this was our first stop before we moved the business here and while the business is in Frisco/Little Elm, we live minutes from here and have always had a great experience here! Can't say enough great things about this location our 10 and almost 8 year old MAKE us go there lol great beer selection, killer food and kid friendly! what could be better any day of the week!“

“This is one of my go-to places in the area. The main reason I always return - ORLANDO. He is one of the OG staff that makes me want to go back. Not sure what you want to drink that night? Ask Orlando. Long day and need to smile? Ask Orlando. Starving and everything looks good? Ask Orlando. Yes, the food is good Yes, the drinks are good (my fave is the Purple Duck). But - secretly - why do my friends and I go? To hang with Orlando! 🥰“

“Amazing Experience at Coco Beach Plano! Coco Beach Plano is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is vibrant and fun, making it the perfect spot for a great time with friends or family. The food is simply outstanding, with a menu full of delicious and beautifully presented dishes that cater to all tastes. Every bite was a delight! The service is top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff who make you feel welcomed and valued. Whether you're looking for a place to unwind or celebrate, Coco Beach Plano is the ideal destination. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable dining experience!“

“Gecko is like a second home! It’s so fun to be able to walk in and know so many people. The food is always a hit and delicious. The drinks are always perfect and the staff is as friendly as it gets. I definitely recommend the pizza, the Turkey melt and the brunch chimichanga. Out of this world!! If you are there for happy hour the pretzel bites with queso always hit the snack spot. Gecko is fantastic for sports watching too! Football, Olympics and especially soccer!! Go give them a try…you won’t be disappointed and I bet you make some new friends!!“

“Great local place. Great staff and food. We feel like family.“

“Great music, nice atmosphere 👌“

“Love the bands. Great atmosphere. However highly disappointed that why we pay for premium tables if 4 many tables had 6 at theirs or more which meant someone got away with not paying ticket prices.“

“When we went we were the only ones dining there so we didn't have to wait for a table. Our food server Rogelio was very professional and courteous. Food prices were very reasonable and they have a pretty good variety of items on their menu. I just had a basic hamburger and it was well prepared and very tasty. My dinner companion had the grilled salmon with steam vegetables and mashed potatoes, and she liked it as well. Overall it's a nice little restaurant in the lobby of the hotel.“

“I enjoyed myself here. The food was very good. The mixed drinks where awful. The mixed drink we.had tasted like cough syrup. The chicken fried wings are amazing and the Broadway pizza was great! If I go back I now know not to order the cocktails.“

“First time visiting the Stonebriar location. It was great.

Our server was Meghan and she was fantastic. Great service and her recommendations were spot on.

Chicken quesadillas and TX cheesesteak were great!

Music was great as well“

“Love that Lantern St. Grill & Tap House is a great host for our Alabama watch parties! Despite the Tide in Texas group deciding they would no longer "host" parties, Alabama fans are still welcome to come! Several of us who are not in agreement with that decision will continue to support Lantern St. and finish the season out strong! Roll Tide!“

“We got a new waitress this time. She is polite and everything, but doesn't know the menu very well and double charged us for a glass of wine. We were disappointed at first, then our usual waiter came along. He made the difference: bring us the usual dish, taking care of our requests quickly... We still love this place!“

“I don’t even know where to begin when it comes to expressing how absolutely incredible Megan is behind the bar at Gecko. If I could give her more than five stars, I would do it in a heartbeat, because she doesn’t just make drinks—she creates an entire atmosphere that makes you want to stay for hours on end. From the moment you walk through the door and catch a glimpse of her working her magic, you know you’re in for a fantastic night, because she truly is the heart and soul of the place.
First and foremost, let’s talk about her personality, because it is genuinely unmatched. Megan is, without a shadow of a doubt, the sweetest and kindest person I have ever encountered in the service industry. It is so rare to find someone who manages to be so genuinely warm and welcoming, even when the bar is absolutely slammed and three people deep. No matter how busy she gets, she never loses that radiant, beautiful smile or that incredibly patient demeanor. She makes every single person sitting at that bar feel like they are the only person in the room. She listens with such genuine interest, she laughs at your jokes even when they probably aren’t that funny, and she has this amazing ability to just brighten your entire day, no matter what kind of mood you were in before you walked in. It is so refreshing to be served by someone who clearly loves what she does and actually cares about the people she’s serving.
And let’s be real—she is easily the prettiest bartender in the city, but it’s so much more than just her stunning looks. It’s the way she carries herself, the way she effortlessly manages every drink order with such grace and precision, and that undeniable energy she brings to the room. She is just a natural star behind that bar. Watching her work is almost like watching a performance; she’s so skilled, so fast, and so focused, all while managing to hold a conversation and make sure everyone is having a blast.
I honestly find myself coming back to Gecko specifically because I know Megan is going to be there. It’s not just about the drinks—though she makes those perfectly, every single time—it’s about the experience of being welcomed by someone who is so incredibly kind and beautiful inside and out. She has turned this bar into my absolute favorite hangout spot, and I truly cannot imagine the place without her. If you want top-tier service, a genuine conversation with the most wonderful person, and an overall unforgettable experience, you need to head to Gecko and find Megan. She is a total gem, a true professional, and an absolute legend in my book. Thank you, Megan, for being the absolute best!“

“Porshala was a great server!!!!“

“Plano just got elevated to legendary status thanks to a night at Plano Sports Tavern. I went in expecting a decent sports bar and walked out convinced I had stumbled into the beating heart of the local music universe.
First, the food. This is not your average “bar food.” Everything coming out of the kitchen looked like it belonged in a highlight reel—hot, fresh, and dangerously addictive. The kind of food where you say you’ll just have a few bites and suddenly the plate is empty and you’re contemplating a second round.
Then there’s the atmosphere. The place has that perfect mix of laid-back neighborhood hangout and electric live-music energy. Friendly staff, great crowd, plenty of TVs if you’re there for the game, but the real magic happens when the stage lights come on.
And speaking of magic… seeing Vinyl Tone here was an absolute experience. They sounded incredible, the crowd was into it, and the whole place felt like one giant party where everyone was in on the same secret: this is where you come for a great night out.
Great food, great music, great vibe. Plano Sports Tavern absolutely delivers. If you haven’t been yet, fix that immediately.“
