Had lunch at Downtown Eats on Friday, and I really wanted to love this place. Unfortunately, the service was five-star, but the food took a wrong turn somewhere along the way. Our server was fantastic--friendly, attentive, and on top of everything. No complaints whatsoever there. We started with the hush puppies, although calling them hush puppies might be underselling their size. These things were like hush dogs. They were enormous and supposedly had crab and shrimp in them, but unfortunately, both the crab and shrimp must have been on vacation because we couldn't taste either one. They were fried, but somehow not crunchy, which made the whole thing a little confusing. The remoulade was decent, but at $12-$13 for the appetizer, I expected a little more excitement and maybe some crunch. For lunch, my wife had the Shrimp tacos and I had the Korean tacos. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what happened with the tacos. They were essentially slaw tacos, which is an interesting concept... just not one either of us was particularly interested in eating. Neither of us finished our meals. And that's probably the best way to describe the experience: everything seemed like it was just a couple of streets over from being really good. The service was excellent, the atmosphere was pleasant, and maybe we simply caught them on an off day. But unfortunately, the food missed the mark for us. Service: 5 Food: 2 Overall: 2 1/2 I'd give Downtown Eats another shot because the service was that good. But next time, I may bring a map and see if we can get the food those last couple of streets closer to good. Our name for Downtown Eats until next time is OK Eats.

Service and atmosphere brought it all home. 5 stars "We have to bring our friends". So we did on a Saturday night 5-6pm prime time. 2 orders of chicken fingers, fish & chips, and i had the fried shrimp. All fried dont judge. The plates arrived. All fried item were the same color. Dark dirty brown. I looked at other tables. Porkchops and appitizers all same color only comes down to old dirty oil. Shame on you Eats. I question the staff. Didn't anyone think the food was NOT golden like last week? Appetizers, fish, shrimp, chicken, chops... different cooking times, one color. The slaw... served warm. One bite and I came to the conclusion someone didnt finish the recipe. Last step- add flavor. "We have Potential!" Should be your motto. Why? Underneath the dark brown crust was a perfect shrimp, chicken finger, and fish. The shrimp was moist with a pop. Bad oil night? We're coming back for a 3rd visit to decide to scratch this off our list of repeats. C'MON Downtown Eats you can do better.

Since there was no Grouper, my kiddo and I got the fried catfish po'boy & the fried shrimp po'boys and shared them and OMG. The fry is well-seasoned, and the fish/shrimp were ample; just enough dressings and delicious French bread. We also had a side of okra, which was good, although I would have liked maybe some remoulade for dipping, or more of the seasoning from the seafood fry in the mix. Located in a shopping center, the spot is small and quaint, with a NOLA-themed mural and decor... and the playlist was all bangers! Both the cashier and the cook we spoke with were friendly and helpful, serving real hospitality. We will definitely be back next time we're in town.

The service was amazing. I can't remember who our server was if I did I would definitely shout her out but just know that you will probably be receiving great customer service from anyone. Regarding the food, it felt very flavorful and fresh. I think the portion size could be slightly bigger specifically for the dish that I got. However, the dish that my family got it was a great portion size. My favorite was the waffles. It was made to perfection! The restaurant is very clean and there is plenty of parking as it is housed in a plaza off Dallas Acworth Highway. I think they have great options on their menu, they have a number of dishes, but also it is not overwhelming at the same time. Again the food definitely makes me want to go back to try other dishes and I'm looking forward to it! Great place and I love that it is in the Dallas area because this community deserves to have a great restaurant like eggs up grill.

Between my wife and I, we had the catfish, pork chops, green beans, mac & cheese, fried squash, purple hull peas, and cornbread. Everything was hot, fresh, and tasted great! And the entree portions were huge! I was considering getting the all you can eat catfish, but after I ate the 2 fillets they brought me, I was done. Done, I tell you! The cornbread was cooked on griddle and was fantastic. Likewise, the other sides were tasty as well. The pork chops were HUGE! Easily something that could be shared. Honestly, if I was forced to come up with any complaint at all, it's that maybe, MAYBE, the pork chops were a touch on the salty side. Do yourself a favor...stop in!!

While the slaw was not very good, the fish was crunchy and filling. A decent portion, too. On all our visits, they've burned the cornbread. That must be their norm. The table okra and the greens went down well. No one at the table enjoyed the corn/cob claiming a boring, bland, stale taste that even butter and salt couldn't save. The server was full of piss and vinegar. It wasn't just us, the next table over commented the same. This is probably a good place to avoid when busy. I guess I expected a better experience and feel a bit jaded with this place. At least we gave it a few attempts. 10/24

The woman taking our order didn't seem very enthusiastic or friendly, but maybe she was just having an off day. Overall, it's definitely worth a try if you're in the area! Great prices!

Not in the staff but there are some minor interior issues which could be addressed. As the dining area and service areas are open plan you can easily see the duct tape doors to the dishwashers area is in dire need of repair versus patching. Also it is rather filthy along the edges. The wall a/c unit also needs to be completely cleaned as it appears to have some grime building up. Now for the biggest disappointment ... our food. Coffee - yummy Country fried steak biscuit..... yea nope not again. It's just like it says just a huge very thin slice of commercial packaged frozen patty of country fried steak laid across an open faced biscuit. I had a side of fresh fruit. But it was mostly out of season fruit so not sweet and still underripe. Biscuit was light and fluffy but I had to order a piece of cheese and some gravy to hide the flavor of the meat and coating. Chicken and waffles - husband's favorite here but today it wasn't the same at all. Chicken was super dry inside. Waffles he described as no different than ones he makes at the hotel lobby. All in all we will wait some before returning to try again at some point. Thank you to the wait staff for always having smiles and helping each other to keep us happy.
