    The Connecticut and crab chips
    Danielle S.

    I love me a food hall and this one is inside The Exchange. I got the Connecticut lobster roll and crab chips, it was delicious. If you haven't had a warm lobster roll in my opinion it's the way to go without all the extra fluff. The chips were good I wish they had a little more seasoning. This is a great first place to try if your coming to The Exchange.

    lol 25 dollar lobster roll was 2 bites big. Horrible. Dont buy. Literally the size of 2 golf balls

    Absolutely loved this spot. The tacos were fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The fish was perfectly crispy, the shrimp had great seasoning, and the salmon was tender and packed with flavor. The sauces tied everything together without overpowering the seafood, and the slaw added a nice crunch. You can tell quality ingredients are being used, and the portions were solid too. Simple setup, great food, and something I'd happily come back for. Highly recommend if you're craving tacos done right.

    The Connecticut lobster roll was delicious! The knuckle meat was served hot with garlic butter and chives. This location was inside the exchange hall among a few restaurants in downtown Dallas. Service was especially friendly even at the end of the day.

    FOOD INSTAGRAM: @northtx.gemz **** WHAT THEY'RE KNOWN FOR: all seafood! THE VIBE: classic food hall! Very spacious, reminds me of Legacy West food hall PRICE: $20 WOULD I COME BACK? Yes. **** Overall Rating: 9/10 - I've been to The Exchange Hall one other time and kept eyeing this place so I finally got to try it this time and was not disappointed. - They give you a choice of house made potato chips or skinny fries and ofc I love me some skinny fries! They were so good and addicting to eat. - The lobster grilled cheese was actually stuffed with so much lobster and was perfectly made and balanced with flavors. The sauce they gave on the side was great too. I do recommend sharing this with someone because it's a pretty hearty dish and wouldn't pack up well to go because it would get soggy. - customer service was great too!

    Hot Crab Queso, Garlic Shrimp Taco, Baja Fish Taco So flavorful! The hot Crab queso is delicious and you can definitely taste the Crab in it, with nice chunks of Crab scattered in it. The baja fish taco was fantastic. Loved the garlic shrimp Taco especially--the pieces of shrimp were huge and tender, and I am by no means a shrimp person at all. The taco sizes are pretty large.

    This restaurant is all things lobster and I cannot wait to go back! Their lobster is premium quality and priced pretty fair for how good it is. Highly recommend getting the lobster roll sampler as well as the lobster garlic fries. This is the perfect snack to enjoy when you visit downtown Dallas!

    Lobster Grilled Cheese

    I tried this place for lunch at The Exchange with a coworker. It's set in a food hall that has tons of other options but fresh seafood was calling to me. I had the lobster grilled cheese and my coworker had "the Connecticut" lobster roll. We were both amazed with the quantity and freshness of our meals. I thought the amount of lobster in my grilled cheese was a lot more than most restaurants would've given. I really liked the house chips it came with on the side which tasted like they had just been made that day. My coworker said he liked his lobster roll, The Connecticut, particularly because it was served warm unlike most of the other rolls there. If you're looking for a great seafood lunch or dinner option in a more casual setting - this is a great spot!

    If you're looking for a restaurant where the atmosphere is just as enjoyable as the food, San…read moreMartín is absolutely worth a visit. The first thing I noticed was how beautiful everything is. The décor is warm, inviting, and thoughtfully designed. And yes...those are real trees. That actually matters to me. I love restaurants with a beautiful aesthetic because it makes the whole experience feel special. Good food is wonderful, but good food in a beautiful space? That's even better. The menu is perfect if you're dining with friends because there are so many things to share. We ordered the traditional sampler, and it was such a fun way to try several Guatemalan dishes. Every plate that came out looked fresh, colorful, and made with care. The cheese pupusa was delicious, and the cotija cheese was the perfect finishing touch. Then there were the plantains. I actually stopped our server to ask, "Do y'all make the plantains from scratch?" They do. And it shows. They were fresh, perfectly cooked, and so good that I kept reaching for another one. Honestly, they may have been my favorite thing on the table. The steak was cooked exactly medium, had a great char, and was full of flavor. Portions were generous across the board, which is always a win because leftovers are basically tomorrow's gift to yourself. The spinach artichoke dip surprised me. If you're someone who genuinely loves spinach, you'll probably be very happy because spinach definitely got top billing in that relationship. It tasted incredibly fresh, and it made me realize I apparently prefer my artichokes to be just a little more competitive. The service was warm and welcoming all evening. I ordered a red sangria that never quite found its way to the table, but honestly, by the end of the meal I was so full that my stomach had already voted "maybe next time." One of my favorite parts of the evening was learning more about San Martín's history. Knowing it began in Guatemala and is especially known for its bakery and breakfast immediately put breakfast on my "I need to come back for this" list. By the end of the meal, we were full, happy, and already talking about what we'd order next time. That's usually the sign of a restaurant I'll happily recommend. Beautiful atmosphere. Fresh food. Generous portions. Outstanding plantains. I'd give San Martín a solid 9 out of 10, and I'm already looking forward to coming back.

    I absolutely LOVE San Martin and I honestly do not know why I have yet to come back sooner!…read more I recently popped back into San martin after not being there for a while, and OMG! I was instantly reminded why it is such a Dallas GEM! I did not pop in to eat this time, but to find a nice spot to work with a friend on our laptops and yap over a coffee! And while we weren't planning to do much, the experience was still a 10/10! I ended up ordering a White Chocolate latte and it was AMAZING! You can tell they actually put time and effort into their coffee and lattes! Everything is also brewed fresh! Which I love! My friend ordered a artesian hot chocolate and wow! It was probably some of the best hot chocolate I have ever had! It was def made with real cocoa! We did end up splurging on some pastries, because DUH! It's it so hard to ignore the bakery section when it is so stunning and filled with beautiful baked goods! I got a oreo croissant and tortuga concha! I did not eat them (My bf did) but they looked so great! I did try my friends banana custard filled bread and that was great! I would go back for it! Overall, we ended up sitting inside of their beautiful space for hours, just talking and catching up! It was amazing and comfy! We def want to return for some of their dinner and drink specials too! Highly recommend!

I ordered the Pork Ba, Pickled Smashed Cucumbers, Pan-Fried Chicken & Mushroom Dumplings, Pork Bao Zi, and Peach Dessert Dumplings. The Pickled Smashed Cucumbers with the sweet and spicy chili dressing were a nice start, but the Pan-Fried Chicken & Mushroom Dumplings were fairly unremarkable. They weren't bad, but they reminded me of gyoza I've had at many other restaurants and didn't particularly stand out. The Pork Bao Zi had one of the better fillings of the meal. The pork itself was flavorful and delicious, but the bao bun was very plain and lacked enough flavor to complement the filling. I was especially interested in trying the Peach Dessert Dumplings because they sounded so unique. They were definitely an interesting treat, but ultimately fell a little short for me. The peach filling tasted more like preserves or jam than a fresh fruit-based filling, which made them sweeter and less balanced than I expected. The restaurant itself has a modern, clean, open interior and a casual atmosphere. One thing worth mentioning is that it was fairly warm inside, probably around 78°F. It wasn't unbearable for me, but with North Texas temperatures easily reaching 100°F+, some diners may find the dining room warmer than comfortable. Parking is also somewhat limited, so keep that in mind during busier times. Overall, I'm glad I tried Hello Dumpling, especially after seeing it on *Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives*. There were some enjoyable flavors and creative ideas, but based on this visit, the food didn't quite live up to the expectations I had from the TV feature. I'd give it a solid 3 stars and will go back to try some fresh noodle entrees.
