“Fantastic meal from start to finish. Had an absolute great time at Roots. Pear-Martinis, Cornbread, Seafood Gumbo, Black-Eyed Pea Hummus, Short-Ribs, and Warm-Butter Cake w/OJ….Period.“

“Wow! This place is fantastic. We were walk-ins on a busy night, and they still found a way to accommodate us, which we really appreciated. The hostess was sweet and welcoming, and our server was incredibly professional. We shared some tasty appetizers before enjoying the salmon dish with these sweet and spicy brussel sprouts which was amazing. The lychee martini was my favorite. For dessert, we had fresh crispy churros served with this delicious salted caramel sauce, absolutely to die for! Now, the space is stunning, reminded me of something out of Las Vegas. They even have a Jazz Night, which you’d normally have to go to Dallas for, so it’s great to see something like that right here in Frisco. The manager gave us his ‘fancy’ digital business card since we are planning a birthday party and was gracious enough to give us a tour of their upstairs space answering all of our questions. I will definitely be back. My new favorite place! Uptown in Frisco!“

“The drinks are amazing and Jazz is the best! Can’t wait to check out the cocktail classes!“

This guy sets the bar for high end southern hospitality.
Will DEFINITELY recommend!“

“Great place to relax, enjoy wonderful drinks, and laugh with one’s friends. Excellent pizza, too!“

“First time ever here and all we can say is, Why is this not open in the Houston area?!?!! (Cypress please!). We were in town for a concert and just happened to find CAPT when looking to make a reservation. Soooooooo glad I found it. All four of us fell in love. The Pig Pizza was amazing! The crust was absolutely perfect, may be the best pizza we've ever had. Our friends had the Veggie on Cauliflower crust and said it was terrific...but after trying our Pig pizza, they also agreed the crust was amazing and prob the best they've had. The HH Old Fashioned was delicious! It wad a perfect balance of sweet, sour, bourbon. The artisan tonic water they used in the voda-tonic made all the difference apparently cause it was just soo smooth and tasty. Everything we had was fantastic. And not to be left out, the service was outstanding. From hostess stand to waiter to bartenders, top notch. Pleeeeeeease open one in Cypress! This is a must have,, anytime we are up in the Las Colinas area from now on.“

“The Xperience is always a good time and a vibe…. i always bring my people from out of town there…. i want to give a shout to Ashley for making my sister from Chicago feel welcomed….Ashley was super attentive and funny and my sister said that hot honey was amazing!!!!!“

“What a find!! Prices were reasonable and the quality of food was awesome. We will be back. I’d rate it a 5“

“Today you guys really helped me out when my car broke down!! I appreciate you letting me and my baby wait while our car got fixed! Very, very nice people!! Thank you again!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We were greeted by owners Rob and Amy, who gave us a warm welcome and a tour of this hidden gem overlooking Lake Lewisville—and let me tell you, the view alone is worth the visit. Drinks hit the table fast, and after a long day podcasting at DFW distilleries, my wife ordered the “Smash That” bourbon cocktail, while I cooled off with a bold and refreshing Texas Mule. Both hit the spot. Then came the Hillview Court Bean Dip—courtesy of Rob and Amy—and it was smashing delicious. Rich, flavorful, and the perfect start to the meal. I went with a perfectly seared prime ribeye, served with fresh veggies and a crisp salad. Cooked just right, packed with flavor. My wife ordered the Thai Shrimp Tacos, and that sauce? It made them pop—a spicy-sweet punch that brought the dish to life. We closed the night with homemade cheesecake and their decadent bourbon bread pudding—a dessert pairing that could make a grown man tear up. And to finish? A pour of Eagle Rare 12 Year while the sun dipped behind the lake—a true Texas sunset, a full belly, and great company. That’s what I call an amazing night. The live music was the perfect match for the setting—local artists with a little blues in their soul, laid-back and smooth, filling the lakeside air without ever overpowering the moment. If you’re a whiskey lover like Big Chief, this place is a must—whether you’re from the DFW area or just passing through. Hands down the best bourbon bar in Dallas. – Mike “Big Chief” Hiatt The Whiskey Trip Podcast“

“Fantastic music. Great vibe. Drinks are on point and the service was amazing, even on a busy Friday night.“

“We had a great time and were impressed with the quality of the food. Very fresh and the protein options were amazing. Such a cool place, it’s unexpected from the outside. Great cocktail menu. We will be back!!“

“This place is fantastic! I've been a number of times & the service is always friendly & efficient. Food tried has included the Veggie Omelet, California Benedict (could use a bit more crumbled bacon), Bagel & Lox, Cinnamon Roll French Toast, & Turkey Avocado Wrap. All delicious! Pancakes & waffles come with drizzled cream cheese icing. Wasn't sure about this, but was So good! Servings are very generous. Definitely going back again!“

“Came here with my younger son and my daughter to celebrate her birthday, Sept. 22. Beautiful space and decor. The service was excellent and the food was delectable! Great suggestions from our waiter. We started with the burrata and then we shared the Mafalde, the Prime Hanger, and Swordfish. I highly recommend this beautiful restaurant.“

“Today was our first time at Blue Mesa in Addison, and it was by far the best place to have dinner with my 3 boys. Me and my husband were very happy with our experience from delicious food to awesome service from our waitress. She was very friendly very attentive with my boys she made sure they had accommodations since they’re very picky eaters. She even brought them an ice cream sundae when they were done with dinner. Our food was beyond delicious. We will be back soon!“

“Overall we had a great time not just with the environment and the food and drinks, but our waiter was friendly and joined our conversation without forcing himself. The food was great but I would have liked a substitute option for part of my sides but also understand the pairings.“

“Food was absolutely amazing!! I visited for the first time today & I will definitely come back“

“Great experience. I will definitely be back.“

“Absolutely incredible omakase experience! Yujo is a hidden gem in Dallas offering beautifully crafted sushi with high-quality ingredients and thoughtful presentation. Every course in the omakase was unique and well-balanced — you can really tell the chefs put a lot of care into their work.

The atmosphere is intimate and elegant without being stuffy, and the staff was warm, knowledgeable, and made the whole evening feel special. If you're looking for an upscale sushi night that doesn't feel overly pretentious, this is it.

Highly recommend for date nights, celebrations, or anyone who appreciates great sushi. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Excellent food. The French Toast was amazing as well as the Hash. I can’t wait to try the pancake flight next time. Service was great and props to the server for his patience with us taking our time to order. It was a reunion of old friends and we kept talking and not looking at menu.“

“Lombardi's catered my wife's birthday party at our home and did an incredible job. Chef went way out of his way and prepared the BEST spread I could have ever imagined. George came and helped serve and tended bar. He was so gracious and everyone loved him. Can not say enough about how happy my wife was. We are always treated like royalty when we dine in the restaurant. If you have a house party these are the go to folks to make it special. Pepe, George, Stefan and the rest of the A Team. Thank you. You are all special to us!“

“Very impressive for an airport restaurant. Generally speaking, food and service are similar to their regular restaurant locations which seems to never be the case with airport restaurants. They have gone out of their way to keep a solid menu and a full bar as well as the feel of a restaurant that is a luxurious escape from the hustle and bustle upstairs. Highly recommended.“

“This was our first time trying this restaurant, and it exceeded our expectations. We sat outside on the patio near the water feature. The atmosphere was very romantic. Jordan provided outstanding service. The food & drinks were exemplary. Highly recommend the Ginger Mule, Lemon Drop Martini, Prawn Pad Thai, Sticky rice, and Grilled Pork Spare Ribs! Everything was clean, fresh, and delicious.“

“Came here for the first time on what ended up being an absolutely Gorgeous Sunday. We chose outdoor seating, and were delighted to have Bentley as our Server. I was a bit overwhelmed by the numerous options available to me (as a vegetarian for 30+ years, usually a fairly limited selection at a burger joint), but Bentley reassured me I could build any combination I’d like. I went with the Vegan Patty (freshly made in house), w/cheddar cheese, crispy onion straws, ketchup, lettuce & jalapeño chutney on the side. It was Effing PERFECTION! I’m so glad we stopped here, huge shout out to Bentley on being exactly what we love in our server: Genuinely friendly, helpful & attentive- you ROCK!“

“Absolutely love the pizzas here!! The unique variety they offer takes pizza to the next level. I do have 3 issues pertaining to service though. 1. We had to ask for a couple specific pizzas to be brought to our table because they hadn't been offered while others were brought multiple times. 2. They don't inform you of their auto-gratuity policy when checking in for your reservation, nor upon giving you the bill. I would have expected better service when you're predetermining your own tip. 3. We also were asked to vacate our table for the next reservation while we were still actively spending money on after dinner drinks. These are all simple fixes on their end and I hope they can communicate better in the future.“

“So glad we discovered this neighborhood restaurant. We loved everything we ate and the outdoor dining with the fire wall was fantastic. Highly recommend the deviled eggs and quail tenders for appetizers“

“Staff was friendly from the moment we entered, ambiance was cozy and elegant, and food and drinks were perfect. At the end of the night, Lynae stopped by to say hi and was just the sweetest. My partner and I will definitely be back!“

“Muchacho in Preston Center strikes the right balance between refined and relaxed. The décor feels thoughtfully curated—warm leather, dark wood, and just enough rustic detail to make it inviting without being overdone. My favorite spot is the balcony, which adds an airy, open feel to the experience.

The menu has plenty of heavy-hitters, but I keep coming back to something simple: the house salad with butter lettuce and grilled shrimp. It’s clean, fresh, and surprisingly memorable—the kind of dish that shows off the kitchen’s restraint as much as its skill.“

“Maria M. Was our server and she was amazing. She was so attentive and was actually the person who greeted us at the door.
The food and drinks were amazing!
We had the mimosa tower and mixed taco tower.

Will be back!“

“We love eating here because it’s such a flexible place! Something for everyone. Our favorite however is Bavette Grill and their FABULOUS food & patio!“

“We had our wedding shower at BENDT Distilling Co. last week and it was absolutely amazing! Leading up to our event, communication was phenomenal and they catered to our every need. The shower itself was everything we dreamed up! Thank you, BENDT!“

“Always a great time and vibe.“

“It's definitely a great vibe for HH. Parking no issue, staff like family, food was excellent.. except for the deviled eggs, a little dry and bland (sorry). We ordered everything on happy hour food menu. Drinks were on point!!! DJ was a vibe.“

“We drove an hour for the Christmas pop-up event with our family that came to visit from MD. We loved every bit of the experience. The food and drinks were amazing! Connor, our waiter could not have been better! He was such a sweetheart and was so amazing dealing with our party of 11!! 10/10 recommend!!“

“Exceptional food and friendly service. The whole belly clams were cooked to perfection!“

“There is a history behind The Seven Doors which are throughout the restaurant. Beautiful restaurant and service was 4 stars. The crispy ribs are SPECTACULAR!! This restaurant is on my top 10 list and I can’t wait to try other items.“

“We have eaten in the restaurant before and it was wonderful. Food and service. We ordered from Door Dash and the food and service were excellent. Part of our order was forgotten in bag. The manager delivered it and added some treats we did not order as apology. The fact this place has great food, service and cares about customers is the reason I wish there was more than 5 stars! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We will be back and order for delivery again. Customer service was 100 ⭐️!“

“Awesome lunch spot & perfect options for catering sports events. Ask for Jennifer- she is THE BEST! Will definitely be back.“
