One of the best meals we have had out in a long time. The pork chop was outstanding. The brick street board was exceptional. The Death by Chocolate cake amazing and it was the best dessert to finish off the meal. The music set the tone for a great atmosphere. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable.
Amazing Lamb Flatbread, great selections of local beer. Service was on point and the vibe was good mix. Playlist for the evening was 70's-80's tunes which made for an amazing evening with my sister and mom. We will be back!

Imma foodie, so regardless of price (we spent over $200 including tip for two people), if it seems interesting, I wanna try it. This place didn't disappoint! My wife and I LOVED it! The food was great, cooked to perfection, with good selections. We are definitely are going back soon!

I enjoyed the appetizers and that's why I gave the food a two star review. I ordered a ribeye that was anything but melt-in-your-mouth. I've had deer jerky that was easier to chew. Service? What service? How many $100+/person restaurants have some guy in a ball cap and a tee shirt who can't tell you one thing about the drinks or menu? The place is the size of an efficiency apartment. The atmosphere was a total drag because every time a patron came in the door you had to contend with the draft from outside, someone's backside bumping into your table, and the whole welcome spiel from the hostess. I get it, we have a generation of people who want to flex on social media about eating at an expensive restaurant- but save your money for a true upscale dining experience. I had a table of six and our bill $500+ It was only that low because two people ordered a pizza!

Interesting and fun menu. A group of six of us had dinner. Ordered fries for the table as an appetizer which was delicious! That being said the entrees were just okay. Two folks had the steak frites and both said their steaks were tough. I had the lamb with farro which was the special. Meh, the flavors just didn't do it for me . Hubby had the pork special which he liked. Overall I would go back I'd just order something different.

So. Freaking. Good. Every. Time. I have been coming here since they opened and have only had fantastic meals. Can't believe that I have never tried the Moroccan Lamb Flat Bread until last night, but OH MY GOODNESS... amazing! A local gem!

Really steak and fries for $38?! How arrogant do you have to be to price your food like this? The atmosphere isn’t worth the price it feels like your still at the subway that it used to be.
This was terrible on Valentine’s Day. Horrible horrible service and food.

My girlfriend and I went to Culture ETX for Valentine’s Day and we were looking forward to it! We were told in advance that we would be seated outside. We started with the cheese course which was $24 and did not come with bread or crackers, after having to reread the menu, the waiter refused to bring cracker or bread explaining we can buy a bread plate for $14, the cheese course is now $40. ABSURD! Next we ordered the salmon, spaghetti carbonara and the Crawfish Mac and cheese, the salmon was great and the carbonara was meh, the portion was too small, we never received the crawfish Mac that we ordered which speaks to the poor service. We enjoyed the bread pudding for desert which was unusual but tasty. Then to add insult to injury they charge a credit card fee at the end. 3% Was very displeased with the experience. Overall some of the food was good, some was poor. The service was worse than the food. The price was fine if we had gotten what we paid for. Will not go there again. If you are in Tyler skip this place.

We are regular customers to Culture ETX, and this visit was a typically great experience! We always enjoy Kyle as our waiter! He really makes us feel welcome and is a gracious host! Food was awesome!

We visited for Valentine's Day & a birthday. It was one of the best meals I've had with my wife. Our server was fantastic offering ideas for menu choices & drinks. He checked with us often, but not too much. We were close enough to the kitchen to watch meals being plated up & even had the chef lean over to ask us about our meal. We hope to bring our daughter & her husband here sometime soon. Thanks!
