5 stars for Bistro 31 in Highland Park Village. We hosted a business dinner at Bistro 31 in Highland Park Village and it was outstanding from start to finish. The manager greeted us at the door and personally escorted us to our table, which set a professional, welcoming tone for the evening. The preordered appetizers (meatballs, shrimp, and prosciutto with melon) arrived within minutes of us sitting down and were a hit with everyone at the table. Our waiter was very attentive throughout the night, keeping drinks topped off and timing courses perfectly so conversation flowed without interruption. I ordered one of the nightly specials, a Carne Asada steak with chimichurri and fire-grilled vegetables, and the steak was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. Everyone at our table loved their food. Between the great Highland Park Village setting, excellent service, and delicious dishes, Bistro 31 delivered a flawless business dinner experience. Highly recommend -- 5/5 stars. read more

10 out of 10 recommend!! Rafael took great care of us this evening! As a non-sushi eater, the sushi was great! This place always tends to fill up but thankfully we are always lucky enough to get a table without having reservations. The littlest things make a difference and this place has the little things, like the stands for your bags/purses. We actually sat inside, though we normally enjoy the patio. read more

I had the opportunity to dine at this establishment with my daughter this evening. I want to start off by saying this is very tasteful establishment with a very welcoming feel. We had the Mediterranean Octopus and the Prosciutto Melon as appetizer to share and for our entree she had the Sustainably source Salmon and I had the Lasagna. Our meals were excellent each one was prepared very well visually and tasefully. We would definitely go back, a great experience all around. read more

Amazing experience. Shoutout to our server, Matthew, for above and beyond stellar service throughout our dining experience! I had their fresh Jumbo Prawns, 6 pieces. Huge and delicious! Butternut Squash Soup, the greatest I've ever had, very flavorful! Their beet salad was crisp, fresh, and mouthwatering! Their Margarita Mediterranean didn't disappoint! Excellent mixologist! For dessert, it's not on their menu, seasonal only, French Berry Cobbler. This baby was served hot with vanilla ice cream, bursting with berry flavors. I highly recommend you try them all! Playing very hip music in the background, it felt like a Mediterranean vibe, overall. I had a phenomenal experience! Yes, I'm returning! Highly recommended! Cheers and Enjoy!!! 5 Stars and Beyond!!! read more

5 stars I had such a lovely experience at Bistro 31! The atmosphere is elegant and upscale, perfect for a date night or a chic lunch with friends. I started with the Caesar salad, which was fresh, crisp, and well-dressed--not too heavy, just right. For my main, I had the sea bass, and it was absolutely divine--perfectly cooked, flaky, and full of flavor. They offer valet parking, which is super convenient, but you can also find parking in the shopping center if you prefer. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and everything about the vibe felt elevated yet comfortable. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a classy dining spot in Dallas!

Bistro 31 is located right in the heart of Highland Park Village. It's a small eatery with a lot of natural lighting and a local clientele. We started with the Mediterranean octopus. I had the wild caught salmon which came with asparagus and vegetables. It was quite good. My friend had a Caesar salad and she liked it. It's not a very large restaurant, but it is quite quaint. Service was attentive. Overall, I enjoyed our lunch and would come back again. read more

I had a work dinner here with about 10 people. We were seated in the patio annex (that had already been closed for the winter). We had the entire space to ourselves, which was lovely. We were able to hear everyone around the table without having to revert to small-group side conversations. The service was focused on our needs. As we waited for our party to arrive, the server made sure we had ample bread and got some appetizers out quickly. I had sea bass papillote (wrapped in parchment paper and baked). The flavors were delicious but the fish was a touch over-cooked. It was served with a side of grilled veg that was typical and nothing too special. Highly recommended for large groups, especially if you can be seated in the quieter annex. read more

ANTHONY J IS THE BEST. He took care of us the entire time. His energy is just very captivating and it made us have a great time. It was super packed the weekend that we went and he still found time to check on us and make sure we were doing ok. Great service from him. Would definitely go back to see him! read more

Tuna Tartare, Grilled Salmon, Olive Oil Cake I had never been to the private room here before this visit, and it was gorgeous! There is a stairway to it on the outside of the restaurant and the room itself is massive and spacious with a full service bar. The food was not up to its usual par, unfortunately, possibly due to how many of us were present. The tuna tartare was very much just okay. The grilled salmon was great and tender. The olive oil cake was pretty good but nothing to write home about read more

Took myself on a lunch date to Bistro 31 June 2024 Monday Reservation made online for 11:45 (12:15, my preferred, wasn't available) Parking: Around 11:45, parking was perfect. Valet is available for the shopping center as well. Around 12:45, parking was still available but it's busier during that time. Staff: Perfect. I thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality. Ambiance: cozy, light chatter, well lit. Accommodations: ladies, they bring you a purse rack for your bag. Food: I am a rigatoni girlie. The server told me to get it with blackened chicken, so I decided to do that for the $9 upcharge. I would explore other options on the menu next time, but 3.9/5. Price: fair for the area. $40 for just the pasta, really. I had water to drink. $10 for the tip. Cute little restaurant- would return. read more

Bistro 31 - a beautiful eatery in a beautiful environment! Parking: I guess it depends on the time. We went on a Monday evening via uber and saw about 20% parking capacity available. It is in an outdoor mall of sorts so if you circle around a few times you'll find parking! Drinks: a great wine selection from Europe, California and Australia! Food: we had so many things but not many pictures as we were enjoying g the vibe. The Dover Sole was my favorite. They said it could serve two but it really can't - we had to order another, which wasn't a problem as they had it ready in about 12 minutes. Some had the steak and some had and some had Branzino and some had salmon. Everyone, including myself, raved about the foie gras! We had a variety of desserts that were freshly made and tasted delicious! Service: absolutely excellent service! Our waitress was the best. We said we wanted a candle lit dinner and she delivered by finding us some birthday candles and constantly refreshing the batch when they dwindled. She had an upbeat personality and was super friendly. Atmosphere/vibe: this is certainly in a ritzy part of Dallas so be prepared for that sort of a crowd. It had great indoor and outdoor dining. Apparently they also have a rooftop. Age group: all ages Bathroom: didn't use it! Return: absolutely read more

Just ok, food was decent but nothing to rave about and our server was not the friendliest. Free valet parking and outside seating was nice. I do not recommend the lemon ricotta pancakes, tasted like regular pancakes and the burrata and Tono was sent back. Escargot was ok but not as savory as I was hoping for. Outside of the ambiance and outdoor seating this was a miss for us. read more

Went here this past Saturday night, ate up in the Lounge, however ordered from the normal Bistro 31 menu from downstairs. I got the Tagliolini Tonno & Caviale and it was lukewarm warm and had no taste. This use to be one of my favorite dishes from this restaurant (when it had the shrimp) I'm not sure if they have a new chef or what, but it was very disappointing. The sushi and my husband's streak frites were good, along with the drinks. Hope they can turn this around, because I like going here, but would not order this pasta again. read more

Bistro 31 - Bistro Galette - French Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I had my first visit last weekend, and honestly I can't shake this feeling of being ripped off. I've heard great things about this place. The ambience and service were awesome, but the food completely missed the mark for me. I had the gnocchi which was great, but the portion size was pretty laughable for the price. My table also ordered the scallops and risotto, which looked amazing and were a good size, but I was seriously disappointed by the flavor and consistency. The risotto was bland, undercooked, and runny. The scallops had no real flavor. I'm not picky by any means and I've heard great things about this spot so maybe this was a one off. Regardless they went 0/2 with entrees. This city has so many amazing high end food spots that I would just avoid this one. read more

Came here for a girls brunch. Super cute vibe, obviously in a great area. I will say I didn't like how close our table was to the bar and kitchen door. I get it it's a small space but man I felt crammed. The service was great, our waitress was wonderful. The menu is nice and has a lot to offer. Portion to price is normal for that area. If you're a foodie like me your meal will not be cheap. The octopus was cooked perfectly, flavors were decent. Not the best octopus dish I've had, but definitely not bad either. The beet cured salmon bite was nice. But it was literally one bite. The carpaccio was nice as well, still wasn't amazing but definitely good. The steak and eggs special was ehh. I've had a way better steak elsewhere for less money. For being in this area, the aesthetics was fitting, but the food was not super memorable. I love trying new places but this won't be one I go out of my way to come to. read more

Pros: fantastic food. Excellent service. Upbeat atmosphere, not too stuffy. Cons: never enjoy the parking situation at HP village, but it is what it is. Came to dine at Bistro 31 on a warm Saturday night and they had the patio screens open which was such a nice touch. Got the vibes and music from upstairs sister, Lounge 31, without having to battle the crowd and arm to arm set up. Really enjoy the more spacious setup of Bistro with still getting some of the energy of upstairs. Food, as always, was 100% spot on. Staff was very attentive. While this might not mean much to most, having the purse stands always makes me feel like the restaurant is looking out for us ladies and I'm glad to not have to balance my bag all evening precariously on the table or behind my chair. Adds the additional touch to a great experience. Bistro 31 is always high on my list for a solid meal with any group. read more

Enjoyed a very nice Saturday brunch at Bisto 31. We enjoyed the Tuscan ambiance and great service by Alex. Creative cocktail list and our favorites was the Staycation. The eggs and pancakes were delicious, as was the perfectly cooked, thick bacon. Eggs Benedict were perfectly prepared. My wife really enjoyed the Galette and highly recommends it. Prices very reasonable for the Highland Park area. We look forward to returning. read more

My first time coming to highland park to grab a few drinks with a friend. I arrived early and sat at the bar where i immediately ordered the old fashioned, love a good old fashioned. I must say the bartender Luis was great and he definitely can make some great drinks. Was speaking with one of the waiters, steven who is awesome and has the greatest recommendations. Highly recommend the burger with the ai pour sauce on the side. You can make and add anything to the burgers. The chef also came out and i spoke with him for a little. Great and very talented individual who can make almost anything taste great and is a whiz with varying sauces, i tried quite a few while there. Definitely recommend trying this place out if you haven't for a date night, quick drink after work, lunch you name it. I'll for sure be back. read more

Brunch for 5 ladies on Sunday. We started with the tartare...OMG TDF! And, gorgeously presented. Main courses: avocado toast, veggie omelette, cheeseburger, lemon ricotta pancakes, and the scallop risotto. All were delish! We had 2 mishaps that were overly corrected by the staff and Chef Henry. One: my friend asked for a plain cheeseburger, meaning no accouterments, however it came with pickles on top. They took it away and made a new entree with fresh fries (yummy, By the way!). Two: my friend who had the ricotta pancakes - her dish came with eggs which she ordered medium...they came out scrambled. Again - quickly remedied. We were served fresh, hot, chocolate chip cookies with a bowl of ice cream, AND olive oil cake (no words can say how delicious that was)... Hats off to all service members! Emma, Steven, and Chef Henry - who came twice to talk and "cut up" with us. Steven is a HOOT and made these yummy whipped toppings for us at the table. Emma - she is just as sweet as can be! Hats off! I will DEFINITELY be back. THANK YOU! And, to the Yelp Community...please don't forget to tip your server! read more

I loved this place! Me and my mom went here after walking around highland park and it was delectable'! Though the restaurant is small inside, it packs big flavor! All the waiters are so attentive! The overall food was delicious and super flavorful! We shared the salmon which they split for us, such a nice touch! The sauce on the salmon was amazing' and you can tell them how rare you want it. The vegetables tasted fresh as well. The lobster max and cheese was packed with chunks of Lobster ! And the lobster bisque was by far one of the best I've ever had! A little pricey but for the service & food it's so Worth it! read more

Great ambience and good food. Very busy and recommend making a reservation. Plenty of parking in the area for dinner as most shops close early. The staff do a great job of seating you. Which, was great as the hostess area is very small. They offer both inside and outside seating. We had the lobster ravioli and burger. The ravioli looked small when delivered, but was very filling and table favorite. Fries and burger were good too. Overall good choice. read more

Bougie Brunching at its finest. I felt like a real house wife of Dallas on a tv show. I truly enjoyed my time at Bistro 31. It's a cute and charming bistro. My waitress was awesome. She took good care of are table. Sitting outside was the best part. The inside is equally as nice. The weather was perfect and I was able to people watch. I will say one thing that could be annoying is the lounge upstairs music was loud. If you're on a romantic date that might ruin it. However, I was with my girlfriends so it was ok. So moving on the food was yummy. The lobster bisque was creamy and rich. It was full of flavor and each spoonful I had a bite of lobster. Next I tried the lobster salad. It was delicious and it had big pieces of lobster. I was really impressed with the amount of lobster. The Chanel 31 drink was cute and tasty. Fun to get once, but a little pricey. Overall I had a great time and enjoyed the ambiance. I would definitely eat here again. I left happy and full! I had great customer service. Fun and fancy atmosphere and cool for a girls day out. read more
