Where is the Best Hotel Bar in Dallas, Texas?
would have rated higher but my perfectly-cooked filet was tainted by the “char” marks left from the grill – my guess is that the cooking surface either was too hot or unclean (or both) when they attempted to “sear” it. the replacement dish (braised short rib) was significantly better, though. the lamb loin was also tasty but again was marred (to a lesser degree) by those repugnant grill marks. i would definitely like to give this place another shot.Pros + good bar sceneCons – would not recommend the carpaccio (like a “taffy pull”) or anything grilled
This restaurant and its staff are the most amazing combination in exquisite dining I have ever seen. The service was impeccable, the food was something I’d only dreamed of, and the ambiance was divine! No matter where you sit in the Mansion restaurant you will be pleased however, I highly recommend reserving the Chef’s Room. You pay more but it is so very worth it! We left feeling MORE than satisfied, knowing we got exactly what we paid for. We plan to go back regularly. If you’re thinking of going to this restaurant, you won’t be sorry! Although, once you get there and experience it for yourself, you’ll be sorry you didn’t discover it sooner!Pros + Service, staff, ambience, food, the Chef.Cons – NOTHING!
The first time I dined at Dragonfly it was an exciting place to be on the weekend the beautiful hostesses opened the door for me and greeted me with smiles that made my night. The second time I went to Dragonfly the hostesses were dressed strangely in a black toga looking outfit (not appropriate for the thyme of the restaurant) and it led me to believe it was an Asian restaurant (even though its not) but they were helpful and at least had beautiful faces. The servers were very knowledgeable and made the dining experience wonderful again. It was hard to get a hold of a manager to discuss an event I wanted held at Dragonfly and it became frustrating and I decided against having my party there. Other than that I would recommend small groups dining there for a good time. Just don?t expect to get help from a manager.
Founder’s in walking distance from my job in Downtown Dallas. I’ve been there 3 times for lunch and each time I have had a bad experience. I only retuned because it is the closest place to walk and because the food was decent. I went today for the last time with 2 co-workers and the place was packed for lunch as usual. We were seated and quickly selected our menu iteam so we could eat and run. We gave the 1 out of 3 waiter our order and 50 minutes later it came out. Mind you we only ordered 2 quesadillas and a philly cheese steak. The quesadillas are appitizers. Worst of all the owner, sat at a table with friends eating a hamburger while customers sat and waited for drinks and food. He was sitting right next to us as we waited 50 minutes for our food. Unbelievable! That was my very last time going to Founder’s Grill.Pros + Great Atmosphere, Good FoodCons – Horrible Service, Food takes forever to come out
