“When I tell you I had no clue that ordering the chicken nachos from this location would brighten my entire day — I truly mean it. I’m still thinking about those nachos right now! They were packed with flavor and brought me so much joy with every bite.

At first, I was unsure about the price, but once the food arrived, it was clear that the quality and portion matched exactly what was served. It was well worth it.

Huge appreciation to the owner and staff for delivering such a great experience. I’ll definitely be back, whether for another order of those amazing nachos or to try something new. Five stars all the way, and I hope this review brings even more attention to this spot — they deserve it!“

“The wife and I regulars, and Chris always takes good care of us. He is a great staff and always has a positive attitude.“

“Always have a wonderful experience when we go to Golden Chick. My grandfather always loved your chicken tenders. When he passed 2024, we order his favorite tenders in his honor.
Thank you Golden Chic, for always making my 102 yr grandpa happy with your food 🥰🥰“

“Goldie’s wasn’t just exquisite—it was restorative.

I went solo, not out of necessity but intention. I wanted to savor something quietly beautiful, and Goldie’s delivered in every way. The food was a symphony of warmth and precision: flavors that lingered, textures that comforted, and plating that whispered elegance without shouting. I took my time, letting each bite remind me that solitude can be a celebration.

From the moment I stepped in, the host greeted me with a kind smile and said, “We’re so glad you’re here. Some nights are meant for just you and the food.” It wasn’t just a welcome—it was permission to be fully present.

My server was phenomenal. Respectful, intuitive, and genuinely uplifting. They didn’t just take my order—they guided me through it, offering suggestions that felt tailored to my mood. Every recommendation hit the mark, and their presence made me feel cared for without ever hovering.

And the rest of the team? They moved like a quiet orchestra—refilling water before I even noticed it was low, checking in with subtle grace. It was hospitality at its finest: unobtrusive, thoughtful, and deeply human.

Goldie’s reminded me that dining alone isn’t lonely—it’s a chance to reconnect with yourself, especially when the people around you treat your presence like a gift.“

The staff went above and beyond to make it up to us with some delicious appetizers while they finished up our orders. Mistakes happen, but we definitely will be visiting again soon.“

“Wandering Canadian review! Flying Saucer The Lake is literally my favorite spot when visiting Dallas. The vibe, the beer, the food, the people are all great! Vannessa has been a rockstar server for our crew the past few visits. As someone who loves surprises, Vannessa steps up and delivers. Her energy, kindness and creativity are infectious. I hope management recognizes her commitment to making sure customers are taken care of and have a great experience!“

“Solid spread of options on the menu. Went with the appetizer crab cake, spicy rigatoni, basil pesto pasta, and the steak frites. The pasta’s were both ok, liked the spicy rigatoni more but not a ton of flavor. The crab cake was phenomenal, great texture and flavor and it was massive. Steak frites was also a win, shoestring fries and a flank steak cooked perfectly medium rare, which for a to-go order is a tall task. Staff was friendly when I went to pick up the food and the inside of the restaurant looked modern and nice.“

“501 Yacht Club – A Hidden Gem with Sunset Views Tucked away in a serene gated neighborhood, 501 Yacht Club offers not just a fantastic dining experience, but also breathtaking sunset views over Lake Ray Hubbard. Whether you’re arriving by car or opting for a dock & dine experience, this spot provides the perfect lakeside escape with a welcoming ambiance. The Highlights: We kicked off the evening with a deliciously smooth Espresso Martini—a must-try if you’re a fan of bold, rich flavors. For our appetizer, we went with the Deviled Eggs, which were not only visually stunning but also packed a flavorful punch. The Corn Chowder was creamy and comforting, with just the right balance of sweet corn and savory spices—definitely a great way to warm up for the main event. For entrees, we chose two excellent dishes: 1. ½ Roasted Chicken over Mashed Potatoes – This dish was pure comfort food at its finest. The chicken was perfectly roasted, juicy, and tender, while the creamy mashed potatoes were a delightful complement. 2. Trout – The trout was beautifully grilled, sitting atop a bed of roasted vegetables. Every bite was fresh and flavorful, making it a perfect choice for seafood lovers. To wrap up our meal, we enjoyed the Flourless Chocolate Cake. Rich, decadent, and served with fresh berries, it was a heavenly way to end the night. The Service: Service was impeccable. The staff was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu, enhancing our overall experience. The Atmosphere: What truly sets 501 Yacht Club apart is its stunning lakeside location. Watching the sun set over Lake Ray Hubbard while dining made the experience all the more memorable. The combination of upscale food, laid-back ambiance, and gorgeous waterfront views makes this venue ideal for date nights, celebrations, or even a casual evening out. The Verdict: 501 Yacht Club offers more than just a meal—it’s an experience. With its dock & dine option, impeccable service, and scenic sunset views, it’s a must-visit for anyone in the area. If you’re looking for a spot where you can enjoy high-quality food with a lakeside vibe, this is the place to be.“
