“This past Saturday, a group of my sisters friends and I celebrated her 21st birthday, I talked with Kelsey to help secure the reservation and details a couple weeks in advance and she helped everything go so seamlessly. Alana was our server and was so attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. She even helped put candles and light a cake I brought in and really made the evening so special! Thank you everyone at Apothecary! 🤍“

“I stumbled upon Bar Colette while walking around before my movie. It shares a check-in stand with its sister restaurant, Namo, next door, but I chose Colette because I wanted something light.

This place is really cute. The weather was perfect, so we grabbed a spot on the patio, which had such a fun, lively vibe. One side of the menu is the actual menu and the back is a coloring page—they even provided colored pencils, which was a fun touch.

The menu offers light bites, a few sushi rolls, drinks, and dessert. I ordered the Basque cheesecake and it was so creamy and good that I ended up ordering a second slice.

Service was attentive and kept the drinks flowing. Definitely a spot i plan to come back to.“

“.The wife and I went there a few weeks ago and it was delicious. The food was awesome. The service was awesome. Yes, it was expensive, but well worth the price in my view.“

“*IMMACULATE VIBES*.“

“I made a reservation for my daughter and her boyfriend to celebrate her 21st birthday. I called and spoke to the manager and told him what the occasion was and asked if they could make it special for them The staff exceeded my expectations. They had some appetizers waiting for them when they arrived and brought out a birthday dessert. My daughter said it was a great experience and the food and service were excellent.“

“Came to Rye for a pop-up tasting menu featuring RJ Yoakum, and the whole night was a vibe from start to finish.

We arrived early and grabbed pre-dinner cocktails on the patio, which honestly set the tone for the evening. The fire pit tables + evening atmosphere were perfect. We kept it classic with Old Fashioneds and martinis, and both were very well executed. Simple, balanced, and clearly made by someone who knows what they're doing. There was also a blueberry graham cracker cocktail (can't remember the name, unfortunately) that was surprisingly delicious and easily could've been dessert in a glass.

The tasting itself was an 8-course menu and absolutely incredible. Since this was a one-night pop-up, I won't go into detail on the food, but every course was thoughtful, creative, and genuinely delicious. One of those meals where you're excited for the next plate the second the last one's cleared.

Service really stood out. The team was attentive without hovering, cleaned up seamlessly between courses, and made sure our drinks were never empty. They also offered solid wine pairings that complemented the menu really well and elevated the experience overall.

One extra thing that really sealed it for me: after dinner, the second chef Taylor and the owner/manager Tanner came over and hung out with us for a bit. As someone who's a bit of a foodie nerd, I genuinely appreciate when chefs and operators take the time to talk food, concepts, and the thought behind the menu. It made the experience feel personal and intentional, not just transactional.

If this pop-up is any indication of what Rye is capable of, it's definitely a place worth returning to. Great atmosphere, great drinks, and a team that clearly cares about the experience. Would absolutely come back.“

“Great restaurant! We visit this location every time we come to the Dallas uptown, metroplex area!“

“Good food and great atmosphere very friendly staff“

“This was my second trip here. We came the Sunday after Valentines. The atmosphere was great for a brunch day. There were several groups enjoying the vibes. The dj was great. The music wasn't too loud. We were able to have conversation and vibe. We enjoyed the flight of mimosas. My husband and I both got the chicken and waffles. The chicken was piping hot but the waffles were not. They give you syrup but it's not hot. Maybe if the give you hot syrup and butter it would elevate the experience just a bit. Our waiter was very attentive. He gave ninja service👍🏽. Overall, I would recommend“

“Great ambience, excellent tavern menu, and friendly, accommodating, staff. Excellent host: Hala! She makes the experience extra special. We’ll be back 🙌🏽“

“We enjoyed the drinks. The staff was friendly.“

“Awesome place!! Coffee was fantastic with innovative flavors. I ordered the chicken salad croissant. It was ok. I feel like $15 is a bit much for what was like half a sandwich and no sides but it was ok. I didnt like the red onions in it. I LOVED the girl working the counter though! She was cute and sweet and patient. Id go back for sure.“

“I honestly can’t recall the last time I had adored a restaurant experience like I have this evening. From the second I walk in the door, the incredible staff, the severely impressive and playful cuisine. When I say impressive staff. JP went through ever step with me. Not only was he a delight, kind tentative. Everyone was! I have already sent out a punch of messages for all my friends to come here!! I have much more of the menu to explore!!!“

“Came here with my younger son and my daughter to celebrate her birthday, Sept. 22. Beautiful space and decor. The service was excellent and the food was delectable! Great suggestions from our waiter. We started with the burrata and then we shared the Mafalde, the Prime Hanger, and Swordfish. I highly recommend this beautiful restaurant.“

“I had an incredible experience with my recent delivery order! I have a very specific pizza request, and Tommy and Brandon, the general manager and manager, went above and beyond. They both called me to ensure my pizza was made exactly how I like it. That level of dedication to customer satisfaction is truly outstanding. The pizza was perfect, and their attention to detail made all the difference. PT is very lucky to have them on their team !! kudos to Tommy and Brandon“

“I had an amazing experience at JINYA Ramen Bar! The food was outstanding—everything was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly. The ramen was rich and perfectly prepared, and you can tell they put a lot of care into every dish.

What really made the visit exceptional was our server, Sol. Sol was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we sat down. They made great recommendations, checked on us at just the right times, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. Excellent service like that turns a great meal into a memorable one.

If you’re looking for incredible ramen and top-notch customer service, I highly recommend JINYA Ramen Bar. We’ll definitely be back, and I hope we’re lucky enough to have Sol as our server again!“

“We used Blue Mesa as our wedding caterer and it was one of the easiest decisions out of the whole planning experience. Karen was so friendly and accommodating during our tasting. The hardest part was narrowing down our options because it was all so delicious! We chose to do carving stations with the tenderloin and stuffed chicken. At the last minute I added the queso because it’s literally out of this world amazing. People RAVED about the food, said it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. They even prepared plates for our vegetarian guests. For the service we got, I feel like the price was incredibly reasonable. They also helped with our cake cutting and did a good job. Their team was a well-oiled machine. Highly highly recommend!“

“This is one of the best places to go if you like to have a few delicious bites and follow it up with some music, drinks, nightlife dancing with beautiful view of the Dallas downtown skyline, with a latin twists as far as the food and music, it is a unique place in that way, stands out vs other regular restaurant bars. Try the steak fajitas medium term, not your ordinary fajitas, great flavor and quality.“

“First time here and it was good! We had family visit from out of state and tried this on a whim. We tried a little bit of everything. Their food is served as ready which was nice. We could eat a little bit of everything without getting stuffed. We definitely took advantage of that. We loved the tostados and corn fritters. The butchers cut was my favorite while the others were torn between the ribs and pork belly. Our waitress was so nice and helpful. They were happy to turn on the FIFA game for us. It was casual and had a nice outdoor sitting area as well.“

“Don the owner was so great! He gave a personal tour and taste testing! Come in the afternoon if you want the personal experience. Also best bourbon and gin I’ve ever had!“

“What a great spot for a drink! Bartenders were welcoming, helpful, and made great drinks. Atmosphere was super cool as well. Highly recommend. We only came here for drinks and did not eat, but I'm sure the food would have been great as well.“

“Drinks were spot on! The menu was awesome! Great variety. Dish of the day was prepared wonderfully! All the flavors went together great. Service and staff couldn’t have been better. Thomas the server took great care from word go! Will be back.“
