Cold beer/great service/prison food. Burger and fries were not good. Fries came out burnt to a crisp and hardly edible. Everything else was great!

Gabe may be one of the best bar tenders in Dallas. Always attentive and friendly. I come here for all my game days because of the great service and friendly staff. Thanks Nodding!

Love off the beaten path bars. This hidden sports bar takes you away from the city vibes, but gives you a good boast to watch some games!
Didn't get a chance to try anything to eat, but definitely will be back!

The smoked wings and sweet potato fries were good. The parking and seating situation were challenging. People save large spaces well into the football games, leaving nowhere to sit inside. There should be a limit. They could have better drink specials.

First time here, I’m an Oklahoma resident came down for the game. Aaron deserves all the credits for this bar! He’s the ONLY reason we tipped $100 and I hope to god he pocketed it, but from someone who’s been in the service industry for years I know he won’t. This bar has the BEST GM please take him on company trip he’s carrying the team lol. He is definitely the reason this place gets 10/10!

Brisket sandwich looked like was made in a hot dog bun, small, tasted ok, but meat was kind of cold.

Went to Nodding Donkey to catch a game and sat outside. It took about 20 minutes for anyone to greet us and take our drink order. The host at the door seemed somewhat indifferent, and we had to flag him down just to get service. Our drinks came in mismatched, non-standard cups. We ordered two appetizers—donkey balls and nachos—both of which were underwhelming. After a few drinks, we tried the margarita and pepperoni pizza, which were both well-made and delicious. The service overall was lackluster; it took several requests to get a water bowl for my dog. Flies were everywhere, which became quite annoying. Although we were outdoors, the crowd seemed dull and not particularly welcoming—definitely not the kind of sports bar where you’d go to meet new people. Overall, it was an okay spot for a Sunday Funday, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to return.
