This place is a joke! Not only do the servers not know how to do their job but they can't even explain what goes in the dishes. I have an allergy and all I got was "I'm not sure". Obviously the Chef doesn't know anything about culinary due to the cold seabass, undercooked filet and the sauce for the steak tastes like some kind of pre made beef broth. Honestly I've tried it twice before leaving a review. 1st time me and my family got sick now we know why! This place needs to be shut down its a sore thumb in a nice area. Every other restaurant/Bar is always having business but this place is empty 90% of the time. The hotel isn't much better but at least I had a comfortable room but it's not worth the amount of money I spent at this garbage restaurant. If that's not enough, the dishes didn't even come with what was described on the menu. My fish didn't have "smoked parsnips" which I'd mentioned on the menu, Polenta had no "onion jam" which again is described on the menu.There's no way people actually have a good time here cause based on my experiences and the amount of people that stop and eat here, there's no way it will survive. Whoever is running this needs to get off their butt and actually manage, from owner to the bottom. Very sad. My advice DONT EVEN TAKE A CHANCE!

Made a big mistake to celebrate my birthday there yesterday. While waiting for my guests I ordered a drink: Cosmo. I had to explain to the waiter what Cosmo means - Cosmopolitan. I thought in fine dinning places like Villa Azur staff would know what Cosmo is. And it took a while to get it to the table. Staff were simply incompetent and not professional. When asked for suggestions in a menu, waiter couldn’t explain or suggest anything. I asked to make me a delicious birthday drink, because I wanted to try something new. Waiter when brought me a drink couldn’t tell us what’s in it. What kind of liquor etc. He just said: “Well, it’s pink”. Food was ok. Salmon was delivered a bit cold to the table and dry. I wouldn’t recommend going there if you have any kind of special event and want to create beautiful memories with your guests. There are plenty of amazing fine dinning restaurants in dallas to enjoy. Villa Azur is definitely not one of them. Disappointing

Thought I would need a Reservation but the staff was so accepting, the Manager Randall greeted me and even took me to my table. The drinks were amazing! I would go over and over again for just the Tuna Tartare! The food and the staff really made this a 5-Star review for me. I highly

We had a great time having happy hour at the restaurant at the W hotel in Dallas. It was a special occasion.Mike Modano’s statue was being unveiled and Dallas Stars played that night too. Drinks (cocktails) are mixed well. Food is solid. I will eat there again.Parking: You have to valet your car.

I'm surprised to see so many negative reviews, in fact, I always look at Yelp to see pictures of the dish I want to order. I made the mistake of not looking prior to our arrival and noticed a very low Yelp score. We almost just had a drink and left but the service was great! We were seated immediately and to be honest, we were pretty late for our reservation the place was empty, but it was a Wednesday evening. The fish was cooked extremely well and was very flavorful. The let's get guava drink was tasty and refreshing! Server was attentive and frequently checked in to make sure we didn't need anything. Wry upscale vibe, welcoming and good music. Would visit the establishment again when we're in the area.

Don't waste your time and money. This place is a joke and a fraud.

Delicious food and nice ambience. Service was very good except that they did not provide scotch list and when ordered Oban - it was $41 per shot!!! That's a ridiculous amount by any stabdard.
Beef carpaccio was essentially frozen- like biting into thin shaved ice. Although our server was very pleasant, the wait time for drinks and food was extensive. Food was average at best, not great value for money. The DJ was excellent and definitely the best part. Wouldn't go again.

It may have been our choice of food, but I did not like either of the items I ordered. My husband's meal was okay but not amazing. Our server was great and the ambiance was wonderful but the meal was underwhelming & very rich. I had stomach issues immediately afterwards.
Had a reservation for a “romantic valentines dinner”, got there and was seated at a two top table right in the middle of a VERY crowded restaurant. There was no special menu offered, no cute decorations. Literally nothing to make it a “romantic dinner” like described online. It was EXTREMELY loud. The music was so loud that everyone in the restaurant was trying to talk over the music and it just made it louder. The bar was super crowded and had a lot of people standing around. It felt as if we were at a bar or club not a restaurant. We ordered drinks to try and adjust ourself to the atmosphere & after 20+ mins of sitting there looking over the menu, still hadn't received them. At that point we decided we were not happy with our “Valentine's Day experience” & decided to leave. We tipped our server for our waters, apologized to him & left. He was super sweet & very apologetic. I'd definitely probably never go back. Upset I didn't even get to try the food.
I booked a Valentines experience but felt like a normal dinner. very disappointed with the marketing and lack luster event. I won't be coming back here or consider to eat here again in the future

I requested to have my table moved and decided to sit at the bar until they were ready for me. The bartender was extremely rude and unprofessional. Almost ruined my mood for the night.
