    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.

    About: Red Phone Booth, founded in Atlanta in 2020 by…read moreStephen de Haan in partnership with actor and whiskey and cigar enthusiast Michael Cudlitz , opened its first Texas location in The Colony, Dallas, in 2023, celebrating three years since its inception. 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. If you're interested in joining, visit redphonebooth.com to schedule a membership tour.

Plus, there is a dress code, so no athletic clothing or ripped jeans. I like to bring my family from out of town here and they've always liked it.

    Decided to try this new place out on Saturday evening and it turned out to be really cool! A great…read morespot for those who don't like drinking alcohol or want to bring their older teenager. The owner was there and told us about some of the building's history, including when the downstairs was a saloon and the upstairs was a hotel. You can definitely still notice the historic charm of the old building but they've done a nice job redoing the upstairs and turning it into a comfortable place to hang out and have a (non alcoholic) drink. The room is above the bakery, the easiest way to enter is from the labeled door on the side street. Climb the stairs and you'll find yourself right in the bar. The menu was limited, and based on our conversations with the owners, they are constantly experimenting with new non-alcoholic combinations and creating new things. I ordered their version of an "old fashioned" and it was very good. Tasted a bit smoky and generally mirrored the taste of an old fashioned that actually has alcohol in it. They have some board games to keep you occupied, and on this particular night they also had karaoke. Prices are around $10-$12 for a mocktail. I recommend checking this place out, I'll surely be back.

Nestled in the historic downtown Wylie area, Noble Experiment is a cute little speakeasy above a cute Mexican bakery. You can enter through the bakery (entrance is in the back of the bakery), or on Oak street! They're new, but the owners are developing some cool mocktails on a monthly basis so the menu is ever changing! The bar is 17+, so you can bring your teenage kids and have a good time playing board games or kareoking! I believe they have live music and trivia on some nights as well!
