    Chicken Meatballs
    Tanzel S.

    Beautiful restaurant me and my wife enjoyed ourselves. The server was nice answered all the questions we had! The food: Chicken meatballs: Excellent flavor and really a good bite. Might've been the best thing we had! Caesar salad: We are Ceaser salad people! It was great one of the better one out there. T Chicken Tenders: They were pretty Good didn't expect to like them that much. My only complaint is they got real soggy when you got to the mid/bottom they were soggy! The honey mustard dipping sauce was elite. Chicken Parm: It was a pretty dish but it was cooked a little too long some pieces tasted burnt and were a little too hard. I would give it another try one day to see if this was the truth. The Chicago Special Pizza: It was just ok I wanted to like it way more. It Just lacked flavor it didn't taste like much at all. It had a nice crunch and it was cooked real well but it wasn't the best.

    Stopped in on a Friday for happy hour and had a sausage pizza and a couple of martinis. We prefer the pizza well done and this one was not done enough for us, but otherwise everything was fabulous. Service is always good and dining room is always clean.

    Chicken Tenders with honey mustard and mashed potatoes

    I originally was a fan of Houston's. Houston's closed but is owned by Hillstone (also on Preston, but closer to Northwest Highway). Those geniuses stopped selling chicken tenders, so I gave this place a try. Before I begin, I want to clear up some confusion about this place. If you intend to eat at the GREEN building location near SMU, you want to eat at the Hillcrest location. If you want to eat at the Preston location (in the strip mall parking lot with Central Market), go to this location on Preston. I say that because some genius posted the wrong building photos on each address location. The photos of the green building are NOT for the Preston location! Having said that.... The location is on the corner of Preston & Royal... in the same parking lot with Central Market. Parking was great because it's in a strip mall parking lot. So there was adequate parking. Great location, great vibe on the inside. We were able to walk in and get a table in 30 minutes. We waited at the bar and tried an appetizer. Then got seated when our table became open. As I said, we ordered an appetizer. Try the smoked salmon! That with the sauce is AMAZING! I wasn't too crazy about the pita bread pairing. They could have used a crispier bread to contrast it. But it's worth getting. My wife ordered a grilled chicken Cesar salad. She loved it. The dressing was more like a vinaigrette. I ordered the chicken tenders with honey mustard and mashed potatoes. All great choices. The mashed potatoes had carrot bits in them (I'm not a carrot guy), but the mashed potatoes tasted great. So I didn't mind the carrots. We tried the pizza. We ordered a Chicago pizza and added pepperoni and sausage. That with the hot honey was a smash hit. To be honest, the pizza wasn't so great the next day. If you're a fan of Houston's chicken tenders or smoked salmon, you'll love this place. I won't say that DL Mack's copied it. They just had the sense to keep it on the menu... and by coincidence, it tastes just as good- if not better. Great food. Great service. Great price. I highly recommend. Consider making reservations "just in case".

    Fantastic spot for happy hour and hearty apps! Ambiance & Service: Old Hollywood vibes inside. Loved that we could make a happy hour reservation. Our server was super friendly and attentive! Food & Drink: - Lemon Drop Martini: Tart, refreshing, and not too sweet--perfect happy hour sip. - Spinach & Artichoke Dip: Creamy, savory, and elevated with salsa and sour cream. Thin, crispy chips were a hit! - Fries: Extra thin and crispy--best when hot. - Cheese Pizza: Thin, crunchy crust with just the right amount of sauce. TL;DR: Great service, cool atmosphere, and delicious happy hour bites--especially the spinach dip and lemon drop martini!

    Service was good and very quick! Knowledgeable server. I do wish the chicken was a little more bite sized on my the pizza but it was still delicious. Great portions and prices. The spinach dip was bland though . Get the lemon drop for sure

    Not only was all the food delicious, but our server had a happiness that was infectious. We came 15 minutes before our reservation, and we were still seated instantly. I liked the vibes inside a lot!

This unassuming restaurant tucked in a corner of nondescript row of stores has stood the test of time. My first review of the place was in 2013. Here it is 13 years later then it is still going strong. I went for lunch with the family on a snow day. You order at the counter and they bring it to your table. No numbers, they just remember who you are. I always get combo number 1 and add sweet potato fries. The prices are great and not much more than McDonalds but the difference in value is significant. The burgers are not thick but this time I noticed the double burger (#2) is just a couple of bucks more than the the single patty in #1. Note to self for next time. Although the patty is thin, the flavors work. The burger comes with lettuce, tomato, onion, and mustard. No ketchup, you add that yourself. The bun with sesame seeds always comes out piping hot. Sweet potato fries are crispy and not greasy. The combo comes with a drink for $10.99. That's a deal. I hope they stay in business another 13 years!

The patties are juicy, the buns are toasted perfectly, and everything tastes fresh and made with care. You can tell they are not trying to be trendy. They are just focused on making a solid burger every single time. It is the kind of place you keep coming back to because it never disappoints. Quick, simple, and consistently good. If you care more about flavor than atmosphere, this is the spot.

The neighborhood may continue to change around it, but Chip's remains the same. My Overall Rating - 4 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Chip's has an old school, nostalgic feel. The restaurant has an iconic sloping roof with a yellow outdoor exterior and a big green sign with its logo. Inside, there are plenty of booths, a bar, and even outdoor seating. Chip's has grown and expanded over the years but to me that adds to the nostalgic charm. 1 Star. Service - Chip's may have invented counter service. Upon entering, you look at the menu posted on the wall and place your order. You'll get a number (or they'll ask for your name), and you grab a table, and when your food is ready it comes out. Fast, efficient, and the staff was super friendly. 1 Star. Food - Chip's is known for its poppy seed hamburger buns. While it's pretty and tasty, the most important part, the patty, is pretty average. Honestly, there are many other great burger joints in Dallas. On the other hand, the fried onion strings are a must order for your side. While I wasn't a fan of the burger, the fried onion strings saved my meal. The Oreo and Fresh Banana shakes were also a nice cold, creamy, sweet ending to my meal. 1 Star. Will I Return? - Yes. I hope Chip's never changes. The restaurant has an iconic look, it's part of Dallas history, and the staff is great. 1 Star.

We ordered the fried mushrooms to start, and they were so hot that one of us severely burned her lower gums on them. Seriously! A prescription from the dentist was sought; mea culpa but damn. Once they were less volcanic, they were good. We split a burger with fried onions, and it was dry. The meat was overbooked, the bun was over toasted, and the whole thing needed plenty of beer to go down smoothly. The fries are fine, and we did appreciate that they had some steamed broccoli on the menu. Our daughter was happy with her kids cheeseburger meal, and she did like the chocolate-caramel malt shake she scored at the end. A main reason that we're landing on three stars is the ice cream situation. One of us ordered a soft serve vanilla, and nobody told her that the machine was down, so what she got instead was a cup of half melted Blue Bell soup...are you kidding! Thanks for the prompt refund, but letting your customer know what the situation is in advance goes a long way. So, we tried it. Add a notch to the Dallas belt. We wish them well, but we won't be returning. There are better burgers in DFW.

It does have an old vibe to it with the people go to you to order the food. There are many cars outside and was worried that it would take awhile. The servers come to you and you order through their tablet. I had to take a minute, but you have to make sure you have your blinkers on and they will come to you. I ordered the following #5 Special with bacon #1 The best burger and then the cheese fries I got the order within 10 minutes and did not take too long. Once they deliver the food to you, I paid through credit card and then you can tip them so I gave them an 18% tip as they were nice and serve the food to me. The food is very messy and oily so make sure you bring some hand sanitizer. They packed in a lot of napkins as well. The burger itself was just alright, was a little cold for me though so not so sure how long it was waiting. The lettuce and tomato was a little on the soggy side. The meat itself was just alright. When I ate it, I did not experience the wow factor. I can not complain about the price however.
