The notorious BLT
WOW! I’ve been to other upscale restaurants, but this one truly stands out. The only reason it’s 4 stars instead of 5 is because, even with a 7:30 reservation, we had to wait about 20 minutes for a window table.
While waiting, my girlfriend and I enjoyed the Lychee Blossom and Dragon cocktails—both amazing. Once seated, the view completely changed the mood; my girlfriend lit up like a Christmas tree. We started with the Tower and took a quick walk around the 360 observatory for some great photos before our food arrived.
When it did… wow. The presentation was immaculate, and every dish had its own unique flavor and story. It felt like the scene from ratatouille when remy mixes the different foods with his brother, just magical. We paired it with a bottle of Dassai 45 sake, which had us both dancing by the end of the night.
Absolutely loved this place—highly recommend!

Alexis was amazing as a server and so was Matt the bar, we had a few drinks before our reservation.

I want to ask everyone to IGNORE the less than 5-star reviews. The service, food, and views of downtown Dallas from the 50th floor were nothing short of magical. I strongly encourage anyone to check it out.

Alexis was absolutely phenomenal! I work a lot so I use my one day off to treat myself and Alexis went above and beyond to help me accomplish that! Her menu knowledge, recommendations and hospitality was top tier! She made my first time at Kessaku and unforgettable one! It's because of service like hers that I will return, ask for her and spend any amount of money for the experience she provides! The drinks and food quality were top notch! Nothing disappointed! Thank you so much Alexis! You are amazing!

We come here for the view, the food is mid at best but at the price it’s a horrible value. The atmosphere and the drink menu are pretty unique. The hostess was very friendly and high energy, The food is notorious for long wait times. It’s Saturday night and every other restaurant is reserved since its last minute. This place will be free, but Don’t come here with the expectation that you hit the jackpot.

Bartender were always nice other times I have visited. Ryan was super nice but this time the other bartender was real mad when my husband asked to please take off drinks that we didn’t ask for and other girls had asked on the other side of the bar. (We only got one drink) and he wanted us to pay for other two girls, then he proceeded to mumble something and said to them those drinks were on the house 🙃 on my face. Real rude. :( so sad because I love this place…

Bartenders are great, in fact the whole staff was. They all made you feel like mire than just a customer.
Great atmosphere. View of Dallas 360 degrees. Our server Alexis was the best. Welcomed us by going over the menu with us and always making sure we had the best experience! If you love sushi then this is for you but if not then not really for you except some awesome drinks

I took my best friend here for her 25th birthday! We surprised her and she ended up having the best time. Alexis was our server and she matched our energy perfectly! The Kessaku Tower is great for a group of 4 + some delicious cocktails 🍸 We had the best night. We will be back!

Underwhelmed by the small rolls that are quite pricey, my wife’s duck ramen was lacking flavor and the duck was overcooked. Although the thumping music was a bit loud (is a DJ in a small restaurant with no dancing really necessary?) it was a cool place with a nice view and atmosphere but we have had much better food for significantly less money. You are clearly paying for the views of the city.

Great for drinks and sunset, not so much for dinner.😂 It's a great spot to grab a drink, unwind, and catch the sunset with friends. The vibe is stylish but chill, and it’s usually not too crowded (no need to make reservation in advance ).
But for the foods…. Honestly, it felt more like a bar with sushi than a proper restaurant. The menu is super limited, and aside from the dessert, nothing really stood out. 😂😂😂 The Edamame had a weird metallic taste, like it was cooked on a pan that hadn’t been properly cleaned. Just not appetizing.
Heads up: they do require valet parking (which need to be paid), and guys must wear collared shirts. Also, if you’re walking up from Monarch via the stairs on the 49th floor — be extra careful. It’s super dark and kind of sketchy. Easy to trip if you’re not paying attention…
Come here for the view and a drink, it’s okay . But if you’re looking for a satisfying dinner? Better look elsewhere…
