I went here lastnight May 25,2025 for the Baddies Tour. They charged $40 for valet parking because of the event. On the website it says women can only wear heals but they were letting people in with sneakers and slides on. Everything on their website that they advertised is false so be aware. You’re going to spend a good amount of money here but nothing about this place is luxury. The seating at night is for sections booked for birthdays etc. So they’re is no seating, the small space they do have for the floor to dance is very tight and can hardly move.
We came for an event; the crowd control was piss poor and set up for patrons to get hurt. The bouncer we had interactions with pushed us and a few others from the back into the rest of the crowd to attempt to get the entire crowd to move back from the stage. The smaller people in between the push fell between the crowds and were getting stepped on, and ultimately the back crowd didn’t move, because this isn’t an effective method to move a large crowd. Once we were all smashed in together the bouncer returned to argue with us almost like he wanted a fight with someone. It was bizarre, felt like a person who had never been given authority and then quickly abused it. They put patrons at risk.
It's cool!!! Young people atmosphere!
I am extremely disappointed with the parking situation at this establishment. On a previous visit, my car was towed from a nearby lot that lacked any visible towing signage. More recently, my current vehicle, along with a friend’s car, was broken into while parked overnight.
After reading reviews, I opted not to use the valet service due to reports of theft from vehicles, but it seems that parking safely here is nearly impossible regardless of the option chosen. It feels as though guests are being set up to pay for valet parking, yet even that does not guarantee security.
Surprised my husband for his bday they enjoyed. Cooks.need to not make.everything so.salty..REMEMBER HEALTH FOR CUSTOMERS!
Food was delicious seasoned perfectly, Dj was phenomenal and drinks on point. Very similar to beamers if you remember but smaller. Valet was not the best but it is what it is.
I went for ladies brunch Sunday. First disappoint, had to pay 20 dollars for parking, then had to dress up (for what). A bit ghetto. It smell like pine sol and cigarettes when you walk in. You had one waitress waiting about 10 tables. Took over a hour for my food to come out and the food was okay. Pineapple juice taste like it came straight out the can. First time, was not impressed and will not be back.
Horrible experience, I got there early for ladies eat free brunch n waited for an hour n a half for our food & drinks just to not even eat there. Waitress didnt even speak. Place was dirty, they were not ready when they let us in.
Nice chill spot right outside downtown Dallas. Great place to hit after work. They have a pretty nice buffet and some good strong drinks. The catfish on the buffet was pretty good
Okay food but the environment makes it a better experience. Food left me wanting for more.

Great atmosphere food is good some a little salty but overall it was good
Great food and drinks, must go back.
Le Buffet was cool concept. Our service was great! Fish and chicken was good. But all of the food was too salty, especially Mac and cheese. Skin on sweet potatoes were fire! Drinks weren’t too bad. I didn’t like the thought of having to leave for the club/party portion of the night. I suggest you charge whoever shows up for dinner and give them the opportunity to keep their seats, even if you have to charge them, that would be better than having to leave. It was raining after dinner and I damn sure wasn’t waiting in the line that was already to the street by 915 when we left. The saving grace was the DJ! $20 parking isn’t horrible either considering how little parking there is around the place. I’ll recommend and happily return if/when they don’t require you to leave and lose my seat/table.
It's Overrated and Over priced. Feels like a scheme, rather than an a experience, places like this in Dallas should start working on their business management skills and i hope they read their reviews for improvement.
The garden was a great experience. I went with my fiance on a Friday night and caught the buffet. This next part is in all caps because I NEED to scream every word of this from bottom of my heart.......... EVERY SINGLE ITEM SERVED IN THE BUFFET TABLE WAS A 10/10. I was able to try the crispy fried catfish, Mac n cheese, Southern fried chicken, loaded mashed potatoes and some well seasoned broccoli. The dj was playing laid back rnb music and the drinks were pretty good. These were green tea shots and a lemon drop. Only giving the food a 10 because it was absolutely PERFECT! The drinks though, definitely need more presentation but fairly priced. Definitely a place you want bring your lady or just have a girl's night. LADIES GET A FREE CHAMPAIGN VOUCHER that you can go and redeem at the bar at 10pm when their happy hours starts. Overall, a good night. (Side note, Value parking was 20 bucks).
