“The grilled chicken sandwich was 10/10! Chicken was juicy and not dry, the bacon was really good. Had good priced mimosas too! 4 stars only because the first glass they gave me had lipstick on it but they gave me a new one without hesitation.. I will be back!“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at the Studio in the lobby of the Hotel, a Marriott property, while meeting with a client, and our experience was significantly enhanced by the exceptional service provided by Leah. From the moment we settled at our high table, Leah approached us with a warm smile, ready to make our visit as enjoyable as possible.

Leah’s professionalism was immediately apparent. She possessed an impressive in-depth knowledge of the menu, particularly the various meat options. Her enthusiasm when discussing the different protein choices drew us in, and her suggestion was spot on—it was delightful! Leah clearly understands the nuances of the dishes, and her ability to articulate the ingredients and preparation methods made our experience even more enriching.

What I found particularly impressive was Leah’s ability to make us feel comfortable and welcomed. Despite the bustling atmosphere of the lobby, she ensured that we felt like valued guests. Leah struck the perfect balance between attentiveness and space, checking in at all the right moments without interrupting our conversation. Her friendly demeanor created a relaxed environment that allowed us to focus on our meeting.

Leah’s attention to detail truly stood out. She was diligent in ensuring our coffees were always topped off (despite the fact that the Coffee show was already closed for the day: Outstanding! ) and that we had everything we needed throughout our time there. Her commitment to outstanding service was evident and made our experience smooth and enjoyable.

If you find yourself at the Marriott Dallas Renaissance Hotel in Plano, make sure to seek out Leah. Her professionalism, extensive knowledge of the menu, and genuine ability to connect with guests will undoubtedly enhance your dining experience.

Thank you, Leah, for your exceptional service and for making our meeting memorable!“

“Love that Lantern St. Grill & Tap House is a great host for our Alabama watch parties! Despite the Tide in Texas group deciding they would no longer "host" parties, Alabama fans are still welcome to come! Several of us who are not in agreement with that decision will continue to support Lantern St. and finish the season out strong! Roll Tide!“

“Food is actually really good! Lunch specials and regular menu is amazing. Pool tables and music non stop. Great place.

Parking: Shared parking with other places.

Wheelchair accessibility: Somewhat accessible“

“Hamburgers are the best in town. The smell when you walk across the parking lot to go inside makes your mouth water 🤣😋!! I haven’t even mentioned the best mixed drinks and you’re amazing staff…. Got to try the cappuccino martinis..“

“Absolutely Amazing Food and Service. Ironic that Blaine and went to same school to play Baseball. He is a super cool Human. Blessed to have this experience !“

“First time checking out The Tipsy Chicken on a Thursday and had a great time. Sophie and Amber were fantastic behind the bar — friendly, quick, and easy to talk to. Ryan and John were great company too, fun to swap stories with and hear about the local scene. Shoutout to the KJ for starting my night off right — after my first song he sent me over for a free shot, which Amber poured up. Little touches like that really make a place memorable. As someone who’s been in the DJ/KJ world for years, I’ve seen slow nights turn into packed houses with just a few creative twists: • “First-time singer” spotlights to get shy guests up. • Small bar tab or drink ticket for the crowd favorite performance. • Short themed rounds (“90’s throwbacks,” “duet challenge”) to keep things fresh. The Tipsy Chicken has an awesome base of people and staff — it wouldn’t take much to make Thursdays one of the busiest nights in town. I’ll definitely be back. Thanks for the hospitality, Sophie and Amber!“

“Lot’s of brews and good times!“

“Me & Wifey went for the 1st time bout a month ago. The original wings and the sweet potato fries are pretty good. The highlight for us tho are the drinks they are strong and good kool place to go if you wanna just chill and have a few drinks“

“Had a super great time!!! Jose and Fonzi were the BEST! Had never been there but will definitely go again!!!“

“Waitress was cordial with a good table side manner. Her endeavor to check on how I was enjoying my stay was perfect and well timed: not too much and not too little. Her overall demeanor creates a blend of an overall enjoyable meal and the desire too return.“

“The BEST service and friendly people.“

“Best Place to Watch a Game - ask for Alexa for guest Service“

“good music every Thursday at 8pm.“

“Great music, nice atmosphere 👌“

“About maybe 13-15 years ago I came here from England after seeing a friend in Dallas. Some dude walked in with a guitar, got on stage, asked if there were any musicians in the audience and eventually put together 4-5 other people who, after speaking for perhaps 10 minutes, played the most incredible, Pink Floyd / Blues music I’d ever heard. I was blown away. As the guy left later that night, I asked what his name was and he said “Buck.” And he signed me a Dollar that said “thanks for coming to listen to Texas Blues” and I’ve only just found that Dollar, that’s why I’m writing this review now. But I never forgot that night. I asked how it was possible that strangers could play the best blues music after just a few minutes of talking and he said “we just agreed to play in the key of C”. As a non musician, that stuck with me. Now I play guitar and it’s all thanks to Buck. So, wherever you are, buddy. You’re remembered fondly by an English dude who met you over a decade ago.“

“Having a fantastic time at karaoke. With top notch service from Liz, the DJ, and entire crew. Will return.“

“This is one of my go-to places in the area. The main reason I always return - ORLANDO. He is one of the OG staff that makes me want to go back. Not sure what you want to drink that night? Ask Orlando. Long day and need to smile? Ask Orlando. Starving and everything looks good? Ask Orlando. Yes, the food is good Yes, the drinks are good (my fave is the Purple Duck). But - secretly - why do my friends and I go? To hang with Orlando! 🥰“

“I have no idea why there weren't more people here when we ate during lunch because the food is incredible! Something for everyone, classy look, and high quality all around. Think high end bar, but way better. We've been coming here for years.“

“Buen servicio, un ambiente para toda la familiar, buena música súper padre 1000 recomendado 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Cade is the main reason we go to Benders. But the entire staff is amazing. I highly recommend Benders if you like to have fun like great cocktails and good food. See ya there“

“I got a burger, my husband had the chicken sandwich. He tried to swap me! So the burgers are delicious!! Overall price for two meals/drinks and a house salad was $35 before tip. We came in during the start of the dinner rush, it was quiet enough to talk but did have some bursts of loud excited chatter from other patrons. The music was chill and filled the background without overdoing it.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐What a fantastic spot! The service at Benders is top-notch—the bartenders are super friendly and know how to make a great drink. The atmosphere is lively but still comfortable, making it the perfect place to watch a game or just relax. The place is always clean and well-maintained, which is a big plus. Parking is easy, and the prices are very reasonable. This has quickly become my go-to sports bar!“

“Awesome place! Had a buddy that stayed a little longer than me. It got a little rocky and he woke up in a ditch two miles down the road and was missing his hat, shoes, glasses and tore up clothes. Oh, did I mention his phone was missing also. Had a great time. FYI, I'm banned usually once a month! Chicken fried chicken is great also.
Will be back next month! Ask for Caleb“

“Really 3.9.. food was presented well. Be prepared to be confused. You will be served by 4 different people asking if someone took your order. And wait about 15 mins before that even happens. They do take awhile to get things done. I asked for a Togo box that never showed up and got what looked like one egg for a $17 meal. The service needs some work or else this would be a decent place .“

“The Ranch House was so much fun, big crowd, tons of fun music, and great people hang out there!“

“We got a new waitress this time. She is polite and everything, but doesn't know the menu very well and double charged us for a glass of wine. We were disappointed at first, then our usual waiter came along. He made the difference: bring us the usual dish, taking care of our requests quickly... We still love this place!“

“Love coming here for a quick bite. Beats having to spend half my lunch hour driving to and from places. The cafe manager is so sweet and makes sure everyone is taken care of. My faves are the chicken fried chicken, lasagna and catfish. When I'm in a healthy mood I hit the salad bar! They even have ice cream.“

“Great for UNDERGROUND ARTIST“

“Y’all…we barely fell upon them at the end of the night and the bartender and manager were both so hilarious and accommodating. Such a fun time for the last few minutes of the night!“

“Stayed across the street and figured it was a good place to eat. Didn’t realize that the bar had bikini waitresses dressed up like cats. Although I felt like a creepy old guy (which fit in with about 80% of their clientele), I stayed and was rewarded with the best club sandwich I’ve ever had“

“Great food and our server, Travis, is always amazing and goes above and beyond for us each visit.“

“When we went we were the only ones dining there so we didn't have to wait for a table. Our food server Rogelio was very professional and courteous. Food prices were very reasonable and they have a pretty good variety of items on their menu. I just had a basic hamburger and it was well prepared and very tasty. My dinner companion had the grilled salmon with steam vegetables and mashed potatoes, and she liked it as well. Overall it's a nice little restaurant in the lobby of the hotel.“
