We booked our reservation when everyone was still raving about the opening. Then I read the reviews and my expectations dropped. However, I know experiences change from one person to the next and I'd hoped their management had adjusted the errors made in other situations. They have! What an absolute delight it was. The ambiance is truly stunning and I felt as though I'd stepped back in time. The service was attentive without intruding. We sat across from the jazz band stage and enjoyed the music and dancer that came out periodically. As happy as I was with all of this - the food didn't miss either. From the appetizers -cocktail shrimp and whimsical pigs in a blanket, wagyu steak and pasta, and finally the Slutty Brownie-Yum! The drinks were strong the night was memorable. I absolutely recommend. read more

I didn't even sit down I went 10m before my reservation . I waited another 30m the by the overcrowded bar, I swear the only reason this place stays afloat is charging people for reservations they don't actually use. they obviously have a problem getting staff the host was so crusty looking mean and rude it was like she hated working there. I just walked out with partner. Don't waste your time Dallas has amazing spots that actually want you there read more

The vibes are immaculate - you're in for a treat, an adventure, a grand ol' time! They dance in outfits, they walk near your table as they sing, they have waiters around the corner tending to your every restaurant need. Now for the food Homestead Parmesan grits: this dish was certainly creative but not amazing. I was not expecting the sun dried tomatoes with the tiny shallots, but it was good. Crispy cauliflower: the yuzu garlic mayo was good, there could be more spiciness with the Sichuan peppercorn Kendalls slutty brownie: this was amazing, I would get this again. I really enjoyed the combination of textures, flavors with the chocolate chip cookie and brownie mixed with vanilla ice cream and fudge. If I came back it would be more for the vibes, but nice and creative food! read more

THE FOOD Delilah's Dallas does not come to play. The caviar service? A whole moment. Luxe, over-the-top, and the perfect way to set the tone for the night. The steak was cooked exactly right; flavorful, tender, no notes. The Caesar salad was crisp and balanced (which sounds simple, but you'd be surprised how often that gets messed up). The Brussels sprouts were perfect, and the ROASTED LOBSTER MAFALDINE - AMAZING! Now, the hamachi crudo and the "famous" chicken tenders? Not bad -- just surprisingly average compared to everything else. When the rest of the menu hits that hard, you expect those to hit too. Still, overall? The food delivers. THE VIBE The vibe is elite. Dark, sexy, high-energy, but still polished. It feels like a scene in the best way. You go here to be out, not just to eat. Perfect for a birthday, date night, or when you just want to feel like you're somewhere that matters. THE SERVICE Top tier. Attentive without hovering, confident, and actually knowledgeable about the menu. The team made the whole night feel smooth and effortless. You can tell they know what they're doing, and that makes all the difference. read more

I wish I could dine here every day! From the moment you walk in, you're met with elegance, charm, and a glamorous 1920s vibe that truly takes your breath away. It's much larger than it appears from the outside, and the atmosphere is magnetic -- the perfect mix of energy and sophistication. The drinks and food absolutely delivered. I had the chicken tenders (they're clearly a standout -- they even have their own section on the menu!), a Caesar salad, and a cocktail recommended by the bartender. Everything was delicious, and the cocktail was especially spot-on. I'll definitely be back. It feels like such a unique, special spot. I was surprised to learn it's part of the H.Wood Group, which also has locations in Miami, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles -- you'd never guess it's a chain because it feels so distinct and one-of-a-kind. Total vibe. read more

Beautiful build out and delicious food. Dallas seems to be hitting hard on the super fancy spots from the coasts. Delilah is no exception to one of these new "it" spots with nyc + Miami level glam built in. We dined here on a low key Tuesday night and it was perfect. Not too packed and the live shows (dancing and band) were both super cool. We started with a couple of cocktails and several apps. We got the crab cake, the chicken tenders, and the crudo. All were good but I'd say the tenders were a bit underwhelming. The crab cake was super tasty. For entrees we got a steak, pasta, and the Chilean sea bass. We also got the mac and cheese and cauliflower. The highlights for me were the steak and the cauliflower. Both were perfectly cooked and seasoned to perfection. I forgot to mention that the table bread + butter were tasty. Think a cross between a croissant and bread served with amazing butter and pimento cheese. The intermittent live music and band were a nice touch. Delilah is definitely the current dallas hot spot and we randomly ran into a few friends at dinner as well! read more

Trendy new restaurant in Dallas, part of a chain of dinner and show. Beautiful location, well decorated, elegant ambience. Very popular right now! The cocktails are superb, the wine list expansive but quite overpriced offerings. We had the wagyu pigs in a blanket, Akeushi tomahawk, mushrooms, cornbread and Baked Alaska. The good was good but not over the top good as we'd expect. We had to send our tomahawk back as it was way overdone when we had ordered medium. Good experience but doubt we will return, too many other dining options in Dallas to make this a repeat read more

Very rude staff, don't expect to have a table if you make a reservation. They'll have you standing around the over crowded bar where drunk people will bump into you left and right. On top of not being able to get a drink until 20 minutes of trying to get a bartenders attention. Waited for 35 minutes and ended up leaving before I could even be seated. Staff needs to work on their deliverance skills when asked a simple question. the attitude l received when I politely asked if they knew how long it would be until the tables ready was appalling, and made me want to immediately leave. The ambience is amazing and that's about it. read more

Chic and glamorous with a lively, upscale club-like energy. The ambiance is definitely a vibe -- dim lighting, live music, and dancers add to the experience. That said, it does get quite loud, making it difficult to have a conversation at the table. Service and food were overall okay, but nothing truly stood out -- especially at this price point. We started with the 1616 and Showtime cocktails. They were good, but I've had better-crafted drinks at other cocktail lounges in Dallas. For appetizers, we ordered the Hamachi Crudo, Chicken Tenders, and Crab Cake. The chicken tenders were surprisingly my favorite of the three. For mains, we had the Black Truffle Agnolotti, Roasted Lamb, and the Burger, along with Brussels Sprouts and Crispy Cauliflower on the side. The burger, agnolotti, and crispy cauliflower were my favorites. However, for the overall quality and experience, I've had better food and service elsewhere in Dallas at a similar (or lower) price point. For dessert we tried baked Alaska which was exceptional. I would say I have never had a dessert like this before so definitely suggest ordering that. One thing to note -- we were only offered still or sparkling water when seated and opted for still, which ended up being $11x4. We weren't offered regular tap water until after we had already paid the bill, which felt a bit disappointing. Overall, it's a fun spot for the atmosphere and entertainment, but personally, I don't feel it justifies the high prices for the food and service. read more

Honestly, this was a terrible experience from beginning to end. What's most confusing is that the restaurant wasn't even busy and there appeared to be plenty of staff, so the level of service just didn't make sense. When we arrived, there were issues with the table. The table we were seated at wasn't appropriate for our party size, and I literally sat in water. Not the best start. We ordered Ace of Spades (and while that shouldn't determine service), I would at least expect attentiveness. We barely saw our server maybe five times the entire night. At one point, she disappeared so long that we had to pour our own Ace of Spades because she simply did not come back. It took 25 minutes to get a lemonade after asking three separate times. And once it finally arrived... it was just okay. Food-wise, it was very hit or miss. The chicken tenders are extremely overhyped. At $30, I expected something memorable, but they were just regular fried chicken tenders. The sirloin was cooked perfectly no complaints there. The sea bass was flavorful and well-seasoned. The cauliflower had an odd lime taste that didn't quite work. The cornbread was extremely small and had a strange aftertaste. When the food came out, we had issues, but our server never came back to check on us. Eventually, we were given the check without any follow-up or attempt to resolve anything. It's a beautiful restaurant, but unfortunately the service was extremely disappointing. We will not be returning. read more

Recently visited the brand new Delilah location in Dallas. The ambience was fantastic and the atmosphere was very fun and definitely enjoyable to go for drinks or with a group. The food was fine. I really enjoyed the soufflé and the cauliflower but would definitely order different items next time. The service was good, but I felt it was a little rushed overall would definitely go back. read more

Upon arrival the staff is very friendly and welcoming. Venue is really beautiful and they have performance throughout the night. Our waiter Kyle was really kind and had great food recommendations. I got the Filet Mignon steak with truffle macaroni which was truly great. I also loved my spicy margarita type drink with Tajin rim. We also got the brownie Oreo cake as a dessert which was really good. I highly recommend this restaurant as far as food, drinks, and service. read more

We have been so excited to try this new Dallas location! We celebrated my birthday here with friends. We had told them all about the Vegas location and what a showstopper this dinner would be. The decor is 10 out of 10 and just as gorgeous as the Vegas dining room. However, that's where it drops a bit. Our service, the Wellington, the singer, and even the dancing was different than Vegas. Lots of grace for being new. Pros: the cauliflower side, carrot soufflé, and grilled cheese app were delicious. They sat us in front, as asked. The bathroom attendant was a huge plus. Gorgeous long bar, designed well for Dallas. read more

Decided to make a late night reservation here, to check them out. Stepping into Delilah was truly mesmerizing! The place is beautiful inside and it truly does not feel like you are in Dallas. Everything is perfectly curated from the table decor, to their matches, and beautiful table napkins. We got some complimentary biscuits with butter and pimento spread and that was delicious. I ordered the chicken tenders which came with fries as my meal, and they were good. In my opinion the chicken was cooked to perfection, and I enjoyed the spicy bbq sauce that came with them. I tried the All Night long non alcoholic beverage and that was also pretty good. To end the night in celebration of my birthday we ordered the Sundae and it was so good, but huge! It's probably good to order and shared between four people if not more. Service was also great here, everyone was nice. Overall great experience and would definitely come back. read more

ry cool concept and enjoyed the music very much. Very talented artist playing on the stage. Best part was the volume was just right Not too loud and could still have a conversation. The ambience is fantastic. The food however was only average at best and very overpriced for his average as it was. Granted you were paying for the talent on the stage and also the beautiful surroundings... Service was friendly but slow . At neat experience to do once but that's enough read more

Hands-down, one of the best dining experiences I have had ever. I started off with a non-alcoholic spritzer, which was delicious followed up by beef Wellington.(best I've ever had.), Brussels sprouts, creamiest mashed potatoes ever and cornbread. The only thing I did not care for was the cornbread. The baked Alaska and slutty brownie finished me off and I'll be going to bed with a satisfied smile.;) I will be returning as often as possible with clients, friends and family. The the live singers and dancers and fantastical decor made this an unforgettable evening. . read more

Had an amazing night out at Delilah with some friends. The ambiance, the entertainment and food were all outstanding! We started with the Wagyu tartine, Shrimp Cocktail with an add on of Crab Claws, and the famous chicken tenders ! For entrees we shared a burger, the black truffle pasta, a ribeye and brussel sprouts - all delicious. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable, and really gave us an experience. I would absolutely recommend for any special occasion or a fun night out in Dallas . We will be back read more

The cocktails were amazing, and the atmosphere was incredible. Going is an experience. The filet mignon was great, too. However, I found the Brussels sprouts and fried cauliflower sides just meh. The truffle fries were yummy, but I can get those lots of places. It's also so loud in there that it's impossible to speak to anyone. I love live music, and the band sounded great, but it was annoying at times. I loved the atmosphere so much that I'm giving it 4 stars. Just don't expect to be wowed by the food read more

Food was excellent don't get me wrong. My table of 4 ordered the seafood tower as an appetizer plus the crab cakes, ny strip, and red fish plus a couple of rounds of drinks. I understand there is a standard time allotted for most table reservations. You would think my uncle in a walker that takes 35 minutes to get to the restroom and back would receive some courtesy but rules are rules I suppose. Only restaurant I've been to within a decade of living in Dallas where I've been asked to leave. read more

The only reason this place gets two stars is they do have a decent service and entertainment. We had a reservation at 7:30 pm on Thursday night which we made a month ahead, to be precise it was made on February 8th for March 12th . From the start we arrived at the exact time of our reservation and were asked to wait at the bar, the bar is super crowded so it is almost impossible to stand and feel comfortable as you either stand in the way of staff or fully covering the view for the people in the booth. They do have 2-3 bartenders and you will wait a good 20 minutes before your turn comes to order. Food: I don't even know where to start, I do understand the concept of 1920s and the menu items reflect it, however, when you open a new franchise in Dallas you have to be better at food! I had hamachi crudo which was super underwhelming and didn't have much taste to it, pigs in blanket are made with Wagyu and is meh at best. For main entree I ordered lobster pasta and after my second bite I had to send it back, as part of my lobster had cartilage in between meat and pasta was very salty and not spicy as advertised. Overall food is not it. Entertainment not bad but be prepared it is very loud so while the performance is happening, which I believe is every 30 minutes, it is impossible to carry on conversation during it. As somebody said in the reviews another place that cares for aesthetics but not for proper delivery and taste of food. Not sure what happened to their phone policy, but I had my phone for pics and nobody came up to me to tell me otherwise. And not to mention dress code people were dressed in the range from ball gowns and furs to jeans and sneakers so I would say there is no dress code policy that is being followed. read more

My wife and I had a fantastic dinner last night at Delilah. Our waiter, Tim, was fantastic, giving great recommendations and overall excellent service. His work was complemented by the entire teams of servers who constantly checked on us, keeping our water glasses full and keeping us informed of progress on our orders. The tableside presentation and serving of our beef Wellington was well done and it tasted delicious--perfectly cooked beef and pastry. The macaroni gratinee was also very good. How did thy get all those macaroni noodles lined up on edge? Appetizer shrimp cocktail was a generous portion and perfectly presented. The restaurant itself is quite large and beautiful. Really stunning. And the entertainment was first rate (singer, jazz band, fan dancers). Thanks for a great evening. read more

Amazing atmosphere! A beautiful interior décor is paired with a live band and dancers to entertain guests. The staff were very friendly and attentive to our table despite many people dining at the restaurant. The beef Wellington is cut and served tableside. For dessert, the baked Alaska was also lit on fire and served tableside making for a great presentation. You forget you are in Dallas inside this restaurant as it offers an opulent dining experience you can't find anywhere else. read more

Delilah Dallas absolutely lives up to the hype. The truffle chicken alone is worth the visit! Crispy, flavorful, and unforgettable. The wagyu meatballs and hamachi crudo are standout starters, and the chopped salad ties everything together perfectly. Every dish feels elevated without trying too hard. read more

Let me start by saying that the restaurant is beautiful, it is very elegant and spacious. The decors is beautiful and the service was great. However...the entire experience was ruined by the unbearable noise level. The acoustic in the room is terrible, it's nearly impossible to have a normal conversation over dinner, you can barely speak to the person that sitting right next to you, but forget about trying to carry a conversation across the table. To top it all off, they have live entertainment, unfortunately, instead of making the experience pleasant that live entertainment makes the entire experience even more overwhelming and unbearable. I'm not going to talk about the food because it makes no difference, I will never be back there again no matter how great the food was, we spend so much money and we left with a huge headache. read more

Booked Delilah's prior to its opening for a promotion celebration, and it was disappointing. The ambiance was gorgeous! However, our course meal and service wasn't great. Our reservation was for 7 pm, and it started well. They brought out appetizers and serviced our drinks. An hour to two hours passed without our entrees, or without seeing our server come by. We asked another server for an eta of our entrees being served and they brought us appetizers to alleviate the wait. We waited an additional hour for dinner. We were there for about three and a half hours before we were fully served. Our reservation meal consisted of: Trifled grilled cheese- good Cesar salad- good Bone in redfish- not very good Pork chops- okay Whole roasted chicken- dry Crispy cauliflower- delicious Brussels sprouts- delicious Mac and cheese- not good Mashed potatoes- not good Slutty brownie- good Maple pecan tart- good Overall, the ambiance was great! The live music and dancers added a touch of entertainment, but it was a bit loud to have a conversation. Recommend in a group setting as opposed to a date. Hopeful that you won't have to wait 3.5 hours for dinner which was not as enjoyable. read more

This place 100% delivered on my expectations. My expectations were that they shot their load on the decor and millennial social media posters. To credit them, the decor looked great. The location is 'not great' and out of the traffic pattern, so...meh. The food was on par with the location and also meh. Chicken fingers for the kiddos and $200 streaks for the adults - all of which was meh. The band was fantastic and the singer was outstanding, but it's so loud you can barely hear anyone at your table. All-and-all, I'd not hit this place and guessing they're gone in 12-18 months after they burn through the first round of 'hey, let's try that place that showed up in 135,374 Tok-Snap ads'. read more

Greaters were wonderful. Sat quickly and food came out fast and hot. Server could have been a little more knowledgeable and friendlier. Felt like I was giving my order at McDonald's. The busers were fast and attentive. Beautiful inside. Singer was great. Don't recommend the tenders very dry lacking flavor despite being their top appetizer. Tuna tartare was spectacular and refreshing. The lobster mafaldine was mid. The Wellington was good but Gordon Ramsay's was better by far. The grilled cheese was great. Macaroni gratins is a must! The Kendall brownie is just a big brookie. Good but not awing. Over all great for date night or for girls night out for the ladies. Would try different things on the menu to see if any better next time. read more

Was able to finally successfully cancel reservation and will rebook for a different date

Unfortunately, this is another Dallas restaurant that is aesthetically pleasing, but the food is very subpar. Me and my girlfriend came here for dinner. You walk in & the interior is nothing like you would expect from the outside. I love the ambience, I love the low lit lights. There was even a live performer and she could sang!! We were seated, and it did take a minute for the waiter to come to us and also bring us our drinks (which was the best thing on the menu by the way) I started off with the Hamachi Crudo and my friend got the crab cake. No complaints on that. For the main course, I ordered Seabass and my friend ordered some pasta (can't remember the name.) My Seabass was tough unfortunately, not flaky even though I asked for a center cut. The manager saw that I wasn't eating my food and came by and asked me what was wrong. After explaining he offered to remake it. I got it remade, and unfortunately, it still wasn't flaky but I just let it go and decided to enjoy the night with my friend. My friend enjoyed her pasta dish even though it could use some citrus to cut it. We skipped out on dessert and I would say overall it was cool. I don't think I would go back though. I'm more of a food tasting good restaurant versus just looking good. read more

All I can say is this restaurant and staff is pretty full of themselves considering what they deliver. The restaurant is new to Dallas and popular now so I thought it was starting off by not even opening up on time and waiting for a line to develop in front to make them look good for social media. We finally get in and wanted to have a drink at the bar first to wait on our friends to get even more disappointed with that service. After all that we are seated at our table to be told we can't even order an appetizer without ordering our entire meal. Needless to say we ended up having enough and decided to leave without having dinner.It seems like there is a lot of choices on this kind theme of restaurants now in this area that I have been to that is way better. read more

From the decor, to the service, to the food...Delilah hits all the marks! Our group was greeted warmly and sat in their gorgeous dining room.

The best Dallas has to offer. Great experience from start to finish. Loved everything. Food was delicious and the band was great.

The ambience is great, the dancers are cool and have nice outfits, but the food was underwhelming at best and the singer was loudly screaming and screeching the whole night, which really cheapened the experience. I think you could easily find better talent at the local karaoke bar... For a restaurant that prides itself on its entertainment it was definitely disappointing. We went to the location in Vegas and the entertainment was much better and felt more professional, but here it's not on the same level and it really lessened the experience for us- no one wants to enjoy a nice meal listening to someone loudly shrieking off-key. read more

the restaurant is gorgeous in every way. everything from the music, volume, decor, etc. is exactly what i expected and wanted it to be like. My expectations have never been met so perfectly. Every table was full, as to be expected for a newer restaurant. despite every table and seat at the bar being filled, it did not feel overcrowded or claustrophobic, they catered to the overall experience when considering occupancy and whether or not to push the limit or keep it comfortable. thank you for that. the food was delicious, as to be expected. i have absolutely no complaints, only praise. my friends and i will be back! read more

I went to Delilah to celebrate a friends birthday and it did not disappoint!! The atmosphere as soon as you walk in was so amazing, it didn't even feel like Dallas anymore. It felt like we either went back in time or just a different dimension honestly. We got seated in this nice booth that overlooked the whole floor, I was able to see the live music and the dancer for a little before they left. The waitress was very nice and patient with us as well. I got the burger to split with my friend. It was good but the bottom bun was extremely soggy. I didn't mind but it was kind of hard to eat with it falling apart. The fries were nice and crunchy and didn't taste bland at all. There weren't many nonalcoholic beverage choices which was a bit disappointing but we decided to go with a nonalcoholic espresso martini, All Night Long. I absolutely hate espresso martinis and coffee in general so it was disgusting to me but I'm sure if you're a coffee lover you'd love it!! We got the sundae to end our night and it was HUUUGE!!!!!! I don't even think we made a dent in it honestly, it's more built for a party of 4 or more people. I definitely was to come back but at an earlier time to be able to see all the live entertainment! read more

Title: A Birthday Dinner That Fell Apart From Start to Finish I chose Delilah Dallas for my birthday dinner because of the reputation the brand promotes around hospitality, service, and experience. Unfortunately, what happened that evening was the opposite of what their brand suggests. First, securing the reservation required persistence. Multiple emails went unanswered for nearly two weeks. The reservation only moved forward after a mutual connection introduced us to Caroline from their events team. To avoid any confusion during dinner, I provided my credit card ahead of time and signed the authorization form. I also made one request very clear, more than once: Drinks were to be ticketed to the individuals ordering them. I was assured this would be noted and would not be a problem. We arrived early. The restaurant itself is beautiful and the atmosphere creates the expectation of a high-end experience. Unfortunately, that expectation was never delivered. Each guest paid over $230 for a fixed menu served family-style. For a table of 11 people, the food service looked like this: 3 filets delivered to the table (not sliced or portioned) 3 sea bass served for eleven people Portions so small several guests left the restaurant hungry For a restaurant positioning itself at this price point, this was surprising. Then the billing problems started. We were charged for 11 bottles of water, but only 2 bottles ever reached the table. The most disruptive issue involved the alcohol billing. Despite the clear instruction that drinks be ticketed individually, that instruction was ignored. The result was confusion and unnecessary inconvenience at the end of the night while the bill was being sorted out. Because I believe in giving businesses the opportunity to correct mistakes, I contacted the restaurant directly before posting any review. Caroline acknowledged the issues and escalated them to Larry Poston, the Hospitality Director. Their resolution was offering a $250 credit for a future dinner. For context, this was a table of eleven guests who collectively spent thousands of dollars on an experience that was poorly executed. When I requested two reasonable corrections: A refund for the nine bottles of water that were charged but never served A fair adjustment reflecting the service and experience delivered The request was simply ignored. No response. Restaurants can make mistakes. Every hospitality brand does. The real measure of a hospitality company is how leadership handles the situation when the experience breaks down. Delilah Dallas had the opportunity to resolve this privately. They chose not to. If you are planning to celebrate a birthday or special event here, just understand that a beautiful room does not guarantee a well-managed restaurant or a leadership team willing to stand behind the experience. I will not return. read more
