    Chilaquiles with steak
    Rachel R.

    Went here for brunch on Sunday and sat outside in the covered patio area. It was very vibey and we didn't wait for a table! Also, really enjoyed the food! They bring the most delicious salsas to the table. The guac was good. We loved everything we ordered. The divorced eggs were very good with beans that were amazing! Loved the chilaquiles, although the amount of meat was lighter than we hoped. Good service! The Bloody Mary and espresso martini were amazing! We will be back here for brunch.

    Came on a Saturday night, we had a reservation and were seated on time. Service was slow even though the restaurant was empty. The entire table ordered tacos and we waited an hour for them. One of the tacos had a long hair in it. For the price of the food and service, would not recommend.

    Brunch burger. Fries were a bit like those from the frozen food section at grocery store

    Came for brunch on a Saturday for a friend's birthday. Overall consensus from group was that it may be a spot for drinks, but not for food. Pros: decor, music, cocktails (according to friends), and chips and salsa Cons: limited gluten free options at brunch, severely overpriced for portion size ($19 for guacamole and chicharrones -- you get 7 of them for that price and they charge $3 for extra), the waitstaff had limited knowledge of menu and what an item actually was (for example I was told a dessert was a cheesecake, then a cake, then a bread pudding (mind you the menu mentions none of these items in the description)), and there are only two tables but the service was quite slow.

    Bocado saved our night!!!! We had the most phenomenal meals (steak was amazing, sides were impecable, cocktails were AMAZEBALLS) - celebrating our bride to be! The staff (especially Natalie) made our night so special and memorable! I will be back here soon for a special date night with my husband - we live 40+ miles away - but this place is absolutely worth the drive!!!!!

    Amazing service & amazing food! I'm so excited there is a fun restaurant with awesome food and service. The tacos were so flavorful and tender. The drinks were absolutely superb! Perfect for girls day. Wish you guys much success

    Great place for cocktails! We didn't get to try the food but we got the sandia spritz ($13) and the espuma pasión ($14). The bartender made us an extra free sandia spritz so the service was so nice! The inside has a dim intimate vibe to it. Would be a great place for a date night or small group outing.

    Happy hour tacos

    This place was tremendous. Beautiful interior and we were seated immediately. Service was very friendly and attentive. I had the three tacos on their happy hour menu...each one was better than the last. Three salsas as well to try. Excellent all around. Don't sleep on this one, Dallas!

    Try the Chilaquiles & French Toast!

    I tried this place for brunch yesterday, and it completely exceeded my expectations! The service was outstanding--staff were constantly checking in, making sure everything was perfect, and even refilling bottles for you without needing to ask! Now, the food--truly top tier! Every dish was packed with flavor, and you can really taste the effort they put into preserving authentic, traditional flavors. To top it all off, there was a lively mariachi band that interacted with guests, adding so much energy and fun to the experience.Easily a 10/10. I'll definitely be coming back!

    Taco capricho, Colbrus, chicharron, pork belly
    Samantha C.

    Finally got to try this place! They've done a great job at redecorating the space, but it was a bit empty for a Thursday night, which resulted in our waitress being a little too attentive. I really enjoyed the sangria and the food was pretty tasty. The taco capricho were probably my favorite from what we tried. We also got the sea bass tacos which were slightly disappointing. The colbrus was good, the sauce complimented the Brussel sprouts well and was very savory. I liked the other dishes, but what bothered me was that in every dish, the meat portion is little baby chunks, which is hidden in a bunch of fluffy veggies. I would've preferred larger pieces of meat that I didn't have to go fishing for in the dish.

    Food is okay, nothing I would ever go back for. Margaritas were good expect it took 25 minutes to get a frozen margarita which is absurd! The service was awful! I had called a month prior to book for a large party that way the restaurant could accommodate but they lack efficiency and service. I asked for water 5 times and I wish I was lying and it wasn't until I asked for the manager that they brought water. Don't waste your money here it's not worth it.

    Apasionada
    Will C.

    Amazing service and great food/drinks! Definitely recommend for date night. If you're a fan of mezcal get the Apasionada!

    La coqueta and tortita ahogada for me, and a margarita and chilaquiles verdes for her
    Paul C.

    TL;DR: for their first time serving brunch, it was a nice meal with some areas to improve on. With time, I could see it becoming a regular spot for me! I'd been meaning to try Bocado after Dahlia closed down. We came in with brunch reservations not realizing it was actually their first day offering brunch! We got lucky with street parking on Hall, but they also have valet. Ambience: there was a big group having a baby shower, so it was a little hectic with kids and families, but not a big deal. Otherwise, it was clean with dark decor. Service: our server Manuela, along with the rest of the staff, went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. There did seem to be some miscommunication throughout the meal, like multiple servers checking in if we'd ordered or bringing extra salsa. But I know they were figuring things out, so the mild confusion wasn't a major concern. Drinks: - La coqueta: rum, pineapple, orange, and coconut. Very tasty and sweet, to the point where I couldn't really tell if it had alcohol... but good nonetheless. - Margarita: just from their regular menu. Definitely a solid marg! Food: - Tortita ahogada: loved the flavors of the dish, but it wasn't warm (again, maybe from it being their first day of brunch). FYI portion size is on the smaller side. - Chilaquiles verdes: although tasty, my partner wished it had more salsa and more spice. They ended up bringing a different orange salsa which definitely helped. Value: prices were mid-range - for Mexican breakfast/brunch, it's not the cheapest but also not too expensive. Overall, we still had an enjoyable meal with great service. I would return, but maybe after giving them some more time to nail out all the details and find their groove.

    Menu items

    I visited this restaurant for the first time with friends for the love island watch party that was being promoted on their IG page. I ordered the NY steak ($38) with fries & a Paloma negra. I was very disappointed on the quality of the food , service & cocktails. The Steak was grey & did not come with fries as listed on the menu, instead the steak was sitting on top of fried French onions also the steak sauce was not good at all. The Paloma negra was very bitter and I choose not to drink it. I did return the steak and ordered 3 tacos arrlon and it was okay. I will not be visiting this restaurant again. The waitress kept apologizing because she took 30 + mins to bring out our cocktails and mentioned she did not expect it to be this busy even though their IG was promoting a watch party.

We came in near closing time, but Emilia provided us great service and stayed attentive even though they were clearly packed. We were seated at a table near the door, and unfortunately it had a vomit smell. Whatever it was, my friend could not stand it and had to get up and step away from the table. We first thought the culprit was the paper drink coasters, but then the staff removed the door mat near us later on, so maybe someone puked on it and the smell lingered, even after it was cleaned up. Clear Mizu ($16): This has Sakura vermouth and bitters, so we ordered it. It tasted like straight up gin and was not good. It was actually one of the rare times my husband could not finish his drink. Kyoto Sunset ($15): This one wasn't bad and tasted like honeydew. The ingredients include honeydew Calpico, so that makes sense. Johnny Walker Black ($16): This was our friend's drink, which I think was just coke and Johnny Walker. Nothing special about the taste either. Given the smell and so-so/terrible cocktails, we will not be coming back or taking our friends here.

The staff was very welcoming, and the other guests I encountered were friendly and sociable. The drinks were excellent. On my first visit, I had the Hugo Spritz, which was mixed to perfection. During my second visit, I tried the Bitter Lemon Soda, which was also very good--simple, refreshing, and without any overpowering flavors. I actually enjoyed The Bowen House so much that I went twice during my weekend trip to Dallas. It has an almost speakeasy-like atmosphere, with low lighting and a cozy, historic feel. It's also in a very walkable area, which made it easy to visit on foot. There is some parking available, although I would say it's somewhat limited. I don't think it would be the best spot for a very large group, but it would be perfect for a few friends getting together. I also appreciated that you can order a drink while waiting for a table or bar seating, which made the wait feel much more enjoyable. Overall, The Bowen House was one of my favorite places I visited while in Dallas. Between the atmosphere, welcoming service, and well-crafted drinks, it's definitely a place I would return to the next time I'm in town.

We did show up maybe 1.5ish hours before the game and the whole place was packed, but I didn't mind sticking around even in the heat because they have a very nicely shaded outdoor patio area. This is a great spot to watch any of the FIFA games-- also came back here for the Norway game yesterday and had just as good of a time like the last. They have TVs everywhere inside (both floors) and a huge TV outside as well. The restrooms are clean. They have a lot so that helps especially when it's there's a lot of people-- hate going to places with ONE bathroom. A bunch of seating too- lots of high tops upstairs/downstairs, bunch of tables outside & they have a lot of extra chairs. Service is great. Everyone always checks in to ask how everything's going and drinks/ food don't take too long to come out. I do LOVE their flatbreads. I've tried several flatbreads and they are all super tasty and not too expensive. I did appreciate that when Mexico scored during that first game, the servers brought out a bunch of shots free for everyone to celebrate! I thought that was a nice touch since other bars I have been to in the area are not as thoughtful or organized enough to host a lot of people during the World Cup! Sweet touch. Will obviously be back!
