“The food, as expected, was exceptional. The highlight, however, was the outstanding service we received from our server, Forrest. He saw to our every need without being overbearing. For a person who wears hearing aids, the restaurant was very loud. There are a lot of hard surfaces which I'm sure contributes to this problem.“

“I ordered for the first time and WOW, absolutely amazing!! Definitely making that hour drive again! totally worth it🔥“

“Hubby and I went to their Valentines Brunch Saturday and Calin was our waiter. His first question to us was did we have any allergies. We was honestly blown away because NO OTHER waiter asked us that question ANYWHERE! Yes I do have food allergies and I told him so. From beginning to the end of our visit he was PHENOMENAL!! We told his Manager so. There is so much negativity going on, we were very pleased to give some positivity! ?“

We also had the tuna appetizer which was superb!
5 star service and food.“

“Definitely a place I want to Come back to.“

“We love this place! Everything was awesome. Only one small minor thing is that it maybe time to upgrade the sound system. Some of it maybe that I'm getting old as well buy a lot of our group found the dialog hard to understand. My wife wanted subtitles. Thanks for a great birthday, Medieval Times!!“

“Our first time here and super impressed. Our server, Jorge, went above and beyond with his friendly yet professional service. He ensures you're ordering what you mean to. The chicken fried lobster appetizer was PHENOMENAL!!! 🙌 I wish I got a pic of it but I devoured it too quickly. 🤭 The NY strip was tasty, even better with the Bone Marrow butter to go on top. Promise, you won't regret it!!! My hubs also added the blackened shrimp and he enjoyed it very much. They're large for sure. We'll def be back and will be requesting Jorge again!“

“The Zodiac Room and THE Neiman Marcus store in downtown Dallas will always be what Dallas should be. From the age of 8, I adored the shoe department. My family drove to Dallas from Waco to visit family and go downtown. My paternal grandmother adored shoes. She passed this gift to me. The Zodiac Room became a tradition when my family relocated to Dallas from SA. A neighbor introduced me to the Holiday Buffet and we enjoyed it for 22 years together. Thank you for the memories.“

“Evelyn is AMAZING! one of the best dining experience I've had in Dallas. The DJ is great! The ambiance is really elegant. The food and drinks were a 10/10. The bartender working room 7/chandelier room Friday night was fantastic! Everyone I encountered was really friendly! Perfect date night spot or a night out with friends!

Update: came here for my birthday weekend! Service was amazing as always! Alexa helped my friend and I! She was so sweet! Love Evelyn!!!“

“Been coming here once a month since they opened. Three words.....AN INCREDIBLE PLACE. Food is plentiful and delicious.....every time I have been.

Waiting for a table is not unexpected this place is THAT GOOD!“

“First visit into Ramble Room and won't be the last. The kitchen did an outstanding job. My wife had a Gem and Kale Caesar while I tested the Reuben and we shared a side of Potatoes Au Gratin. Highly recommend all three. Our waitperson, Ford, was attentive but not overbearing. Always ready for a refill or to answer any questions.“

“The food is so delicious! I can't wait for the location in Plano to open!“

“I did feel that the menu was a little limited; that's ok because they are serving what they do best. One star removed because the floors were dirty, and there was a nuisance 🪰 inside.“

“Cozy and great food.

I visited a few weeks ago and I have been meaning to go back.

I had the enchiladas and they were delicious. Good selection of food on the menu and prices are good.

Go here for food or just to grab a beer.

I can definitely recommend you go to Ozona Grill and Bar.“

“I came for a solo dinner. My table was quiet and quaint. My server Emberto was energetic and so nice. He gave me great suggestions. The wait staff was on it and engaging. I had the fried chicken and greens which was delicious and flavorful. I had plenty leftovers for the next day. I finished with the blackberry lemon and I tell you it was delightful and clean. I will definitely be back. I have a few more items to try.“

“Disappointed visit. Been to NA many times but this trip left us a little disappointed. They were out of a favorite meal (short rib) and the steak frites that we ordered as a substitute had little flavor and was underwhelming. The blackened fish tacos were made with Salmon and not blackened as we could tell. Service was good and the GM was apologetic about the short rib and explained why it was not offered that night. The restaurant was just not hitting on all cylinders that night. Although we left disappointed, it won't stop us from going back again will just take a while to get it back in the rotation.“

“Insanely delicious. We don’t live in the city but every time we are in town and get a chance to stop in, we do. So so good.“

“We absolutely loved the expresso martinis 🍸 here, and would go so far as to say maybe the best we’ve ever had! All of the happy hour food selections impressed as well! When in Dallas, we will definitely be back.“

“Brilliant menu Fantastic service“

“We absolutely LOVE the Lakehouse! We try to go a couple times a month! The view is great, the food is awesome, service is just what you need and the prices are great! A must try!“

“This was my first time experiencing Chet’s Dallas. I found it at the spur of the moment searching for a dinner outing and you all did not disappoint! The moment I walked in I was amazed. It’s a beautiful restaurant w/ a breathtaking lounge area and nice bar. The Lavender Lemon Old Fashioned was perfect—very smooth and rich. The Blackened Chicken Alfredo and Chicken Rigatoni pasta were sooo GOOD. The perfect amount of spice, creaminess and seasoning. It got better with every bite to the point I was in disbelief. 😩🔥🔥🔥I have hands down NEVER had a cheesecake better than the cheese cake I had here. Lex, our waitress, was so sweet, fast, attentive and she gave us the background of the owner / restaurant because of how in love I was. The owner has 5 or 6 other restaurants on that same block. 🤯 Because of my experience at Chet’s Dallas, I will be trying them out!“

“We went to the hwy121 location and the whole staff was great and friendly! Food was delicious!“

“Had a great experience at Café Momentum during my short stay in Dallas. Amazing food, welcoming staff.“
