    Box Garden
    Gabe B.

    Was visiting family in the DFW area. We were looking for something to do on a Saturday night. We are avid lovers of live music, regardless of genre. Researched and saw that there was a Garth Brooks tribute band at Lexus Box Garden. Got some tickets and away we went. Did not know what to expect but it was great! Grabbed some brisket nachos to snack on. Really good. A few drinks at the Main Bar. Good pours, but a little slow on service. Enjoyed some good ole country music. Great outdoor venue. First time and we will definitely be back!

    She is awesome if you pay full price , no free water

    So great spot , however if you want ice water this person will not help you . Otherwise awesome night. Sorry hunny somebody has to drive. Sorry for being responsible. We were the only couple to buy the entire band fire ball shots, we are not cheap , just responsible. Maybe next time sober people can get a glass of water? I will be back July 8th. So I will let you know how she does. On a happier note the male bartenders we all very friendly.

    Cool place to hang out with friends and families. Free concerts on fridays and saturdays. A variety of food and drinks in the legacy hall.

    Great venue for different foods and nice bar set up. Music venue is great but needs work on sound levels with live acts.

    Are there heaters for winter time?

    Yes, there have been heaters in the past. You can always go the balcony bar where there is heat.

    How is it when the weather is really hot...like an August Friday after work?

    Then it's pretty hot since it's outside :) but otherwise it's a cool area to hang out and get your food and drinks on and enjoy the free concerts!

    I'm unfamiliar with Plano. But what can only be described as its nightlife district, legacy Hall is…read moreacross the street from Fogo De Chao, next to an outdoor venue that plays live music, has hip hop bingo, etc. and I haven't even started with the Legacy yet. Legacy is a three story indoor food plaza that also overlooks and is connected to the outdoor venue that you can get tickets for. With outdoor seating available. First floor is your eateries. Second floor is mostly seating and a couple bars. Third floor mostly bars and some seating. While waiting for my party to arrive I sat at the second floor bar, Heaven Hill, and ordered a couple cocktails. The bar tender, a pleasantly upbeat woman, educated me on the various food options as well as some of their favored cocktails. I had a raspberry beret (shoutout Prince) and a Larceny Paloma. The name was just calling me. While the beret was fruity and refreshing, the Paloma had a bite and kick that snuck up on you. I loved it!! As it's a mall of food there was no trying just one lol. We tried the dry rub brisket bar, chef chin's hibachi ramen, chilango's tacos, cotton and snow, and unlawful assembly brewing co. To finish the evening. Brisket with Mac and cheese; burria tacos; tonkotsu ramen; cookies and cream ice cream; and lastly a Moscow Mule to end the evening. The Mac and cheese from the brisket bar was terrible. Runny, and bland. But the brisket was amazing. Seasoned and tender and so moist!!! Tacos were exceptional. Ramen was awesome. Ice cream was ice cream. It wasn't bad, but not eye popping amazing. The mule was delicious. I ended the night stuffed and sleepy!! Great visit!! If you're in the Plano area this is a must!! And there are tons more eateries.

Across a couple of visits, my husband and I shared: - Street by Chef Jimmy Li: Beef Roll Pancake - Son of a Butcher: New Mexico Frito Pie Slider, PB&J Slider, Smokehouse Slider, Popper Slider, Champ Slider (was supposed to be Cowboy) - Roots Chicken Shak: Spicy Bird - Chilangos Tacos: Hongos Quesadilla - Dry Rub: Breakfast Burrito with Brisket I loved everything we had. My favorite places were probably Street and Son of a Butcher. You really can't go wrong though because there are a lot of great options. I was disappointed the second time we got sliders. They gave us one of the wrong sliders and the one that we got that we didn't want was pretty boring. Unfortunately, we didn't realize it until after we ate it, so double check to make sure you get the right thing. If I'm back in the area for work, I'm sure I'll be back here again.

We went in on a Sunday afternoon so it was not too busy at the time. My girlfriend and I like to be seated at a "low top" because she has back issues with climbing up into higher seating. We don't mind waiting for that as inside "low tops" are limited. The hostess was very nice, as they always are. She took us to the middle of the venue to seat us and then walked away while we were waiting on our server. I stood up to walk around the table so that I could sit next to her instead of across from her. She stood up to move over and pulled out the chair next to her so she could sit back down. At that moment the new general manager walked up, and without offering any explaination, took the chair out of my girlfriend's hand and said, "We need this table for another party." He walked away and left us standing there without offering us another solution, and apology or calling the hostess over to seat us elsewhere. We were left standing there dumbfounded and looking around unsure of what to do. We started walking back toward the front of the venue as we spotted another open "low top" near there. At that same time the female hostess saw what had happened to us, and she started to walk toward us. Meanwhile, another male server - acting as host - seated some people at the new table we were about to get to with the hostess. We got mad and said, "it feels like someone is playing a game on us!" The hostess apologized as she could see we were aggitated. It was not her fault, and we do not blame her. We blame the rudeness of the general manager. We left to go eat somewhere else. This is not the first incident with this general manager, though. A few days prior, we were eating in there and had a good vantage point of one of the side kitchen entries off to the left of the bar toward the ffront half of the venue. A bus boy sloshed water all over the floor while moving wet dishes in a container back into the kitchen. He didn't have a chance to clean it up because he was buy walking back and forth doing other things. No big deal. The general manager walks up and proceeds to yell at another female server about the water who had absolutely nothing to do with the spill After she walks away, he did not take any real care to clean the spot up himself. He comes back after a minute to clean it up but not with a mop or anything. He takes two towels off the bar and mushes it around on the floor with his foot. He , then, proceeds to kick the wet towels under the bar before walking away. Talk about a safety and hygene issue. This kind of left a bad taste in our mouth. He does not treat his venue or his staff very nicely. We wantedd to get up and tell the other female server that we were sorry for her. This venue would be great if they would fire this rude and sloppy general manager. It's a shame because this used to be one of our favorite venues to go to all the time. The experience is starting to feel cheapened and sullied now.

    We came here in a week night with reservations though they were not needed. The place was hopping…read morewith live music byt not full by any means. Walk in via J Theodore, the ohone booth is to the left. It's a cool novelty calling with a book name to enter via the book shelf. Once inside the speak easy area there were two seating options. The Library which is set away from the open lounge area and quieter or the lounge area with the bar. They would not let us pick our spot despite seating being available. We opted for the lounge area as the seat offered to us there was better to our preference. The tables are packed quiet tightly which i dont like personally but i get it. That tidbit aside it is definitely a cool environment. Service was really nice and the food we ordered was great. I presume it's the same menu as J Theodore so I'm going to have to try that now for a more restaurant style meal. This is a cool place to hang out and bring friends imo. Since we don't really drink we'll probably end up at the restaurant next time as it's not easy to eat on tiny tables. It's a bar/lounge after all.

    I'm going to be consistent with a 4 star but so easily could have been a 5 star…read more I put in a reservation for 6 ppl but respectfully called in to tell them that 1 person was joining. Instead of continuing with a 5 top they put us at a 4 top and expected us to squash in. Well this was a birthday celebration and we didn't want to be uncomfortable. I asked for a chair to be put on the side of the table even if it was tight. It took me asking 3 times. Not sure what the host didn't understand the first time as he just stood at the podium doing nothing. Secondly, this is a speak easy. The door to the entrance should have been closed and opened upon phone call entry. It's what makes the presentation. It was wide open, so no point in the phone booth. Again, an issue with the host bar. Other than that, our server was a beautiful long haired/blue eye girl who was so attentive. She made some recommendations I appreciated. The food was amazing! We all shared the portobello tacos, steak frites with sweet potato truffle fries, Brussels sprouts, Asian tuna salad, and ended with the Kahlua cake. It was all fabulous. And whomever they had as entertainment on 2/21 was incredible. Great voice. Ambiance is why I've come in the past and why I'll come again. I just hope this situation with reservations won't happen again, otherwise that will be my last time. At this age we come to enjoy a place not get squashed like sardines.

The venue is designed to resemble a Prohibition-era speakeasy, with an entrance accessible through a rotary phone inside a red telephone booth (which actually works!). Our tour was led by Jamie, who shared his extensive knowledge as he guided us through the Prohibition Era alongside our concierge, Landon. The speakeasy features stunning floors made of 120-year-old Italian wood, beautifully decorated with art, books, and a selection of premium entertainment and spirits. Patrons can request "prescriptions," which are 2oz alcoholic shots inspired by the owner's grandfather, who was a pharmacist. Cocktails and friendly service was provided by Emma and Kyle, their services were a nod to Bob Ruede, RPB's renowned Intoxicologist, along with other award-winning bartenders recognized for their excellence in service and hospitality. Eric, the Cigar Attendant, is knowledgeable about how to properly enjoy an exceptional cigar experience. The Mafia Room is an exclusive space perfect for guys' and girls' nights, intimate events, corporate gatherings, and celebrations. While Red Phone Booth offers exclusive membership tiers with premium perks, you don't need to be a member to enjoy the Prohibition experience.
