Location Government data strict-near downtown presbyterian church and hotels. Parking Be alert for local street spits. Garages offer e charging-free! Atmosphere Cool local bar-pool tables, to quote our server," I was a regular before I started working here" Seating Bar, high tops, tables, great for groups Service AWESOME!!!! Menu Wide variety of beverages, appetizers, salads, sandwiches, burgers. We had the steak salad Caesar sandwich with sweet potato fries. The fries were sub par but the sandwich was fantastic-fresh, flavorful, and just as recommended-great. Summary Great service, terrific menu, great food! Our new fav downtown spot! Love it! Our new fav downtown eatery. Karaoke on Friday-starts late-@930. Love the food

Tavern Wings appetizer

Not good. Much of my meal went to waste. I went here out of convenience (staying in the hotel). The food was over priced and not good. Chicken sandwich's breading was soggy and chicken wasn't seasoned. The tot's "spicy aioli" was sweet and not good at all. We only took a few bites of the tots and just threw the rest out. The wings were decent. Fries were good. Service was good. Very noisy. I went for a meal, so the unnecessarily loud music was annoying. If you were going for beers and are going for that type of vibe, you might not be bothered by the noise level.

There's not to many sport bars or bars in the area so we came here. The staff was really nice, though and I was presently surprised by how good the drinks were. The staff was really nice as well! I was also happy with the brisket and fries! I really enjoyed the blue lights behind the liquors, it was a great environment touch, love it! The only thing I would suggest it a separate screen with a beer menu because we had to wait 5 minutes for the menu to come around between all the different slides.

This place was awesome. We wandered here after a night out at the waterproof, which is overly expensive. Came in here and felt like we were joke. The owner was super cool, John, and he was pouring up some of the shots for us and ensuring we had a good time. Place is very well kept up as well and all of the employees were great and ensure we were all taken care of quickly

Quesadilla - Spinach
Elizabeth L.

Came here on a Sunday evening around 8pm. Parked on the street. The place was pretty empty, only two other parties there. Red Sangria - very wine heavy & strong. Hardwood Sour - good. Strong. Quesadilla (Spinach) - spinach is cooked nicely & not over cooked. I'm quite impressed - I feel like a lot of place overcooked the spinach. Salsa was quite good; made in house. Smoked Turkey Sandwich - good. Could have used more turkey, but it was still good. Sweet potato fries were spot on. Overall, service was good & food was good. Vibe was casual. One of the bartenders: Jeremy, is awesome. I would recommend & I'd come back.

First there was Uncle Uber's and then came Green Door Public House and now the brain trust behind these two great places strike again with Harwood Tavern. Located in the historic Lone Star Gas building, Harwood Tavern has the potential to quickly become a neighborhood favorite. Having been open a little more than a week, Harwood Tavern strikes the perfect balance between casual and upscale. It can easily accommodate a variety of needs from a business dinner to date night to casual dining. Having already visited a couple of times, I've tried a few different items on their ever-expanding menu. I went with a friend on my first visit (hey Kristie A) and we both order the wedge salad as a starter. It was served with Russian dressing and was very tasty. I went with burger while Kristie went with the fish and chips. I believe she with the cod only option (I think salmon is the other option). The burger, which comes with bacon, was delicious. It was a little overcooked (I asked for medium and it was more like medium) so I can only imagine how tasty it will be at the proper temperature. In case you're wondering, yes, they offered to make me another burger but I was too hungry to wait so I went with it. I had a taste of the cod and thought it delicious too. Since then I have tried Thai-Chili wings and the Redskins. The wings were really tasty with an appropriate amount of spice and sweetness. The Redskins it their take on potato skins and they were super tasty. The best way for me to describe them is to picture potato skins served similarly to au gratin potatoes. They hit the spot for me. I look forward to trying the meatloaf on my next visit. It was served to a few other people while I was there and I seriously felt like I was missing out. As to be expected, Harwood Tavern has a full bar which includes a nice selection of local beers and cider. On my initial visit, I went a selection from their cocktail menu called the Coronado. It was a gin based drink (can you believe I didn't have vodka?). No need to worry, on my next visit, I went with a few vodka based drinks; all created on the spot by Brooke who was working the bar. The dining area appears to be very comfy with enough space between tables to have some privacy. They have a nice patio that I look forward to experiencing once the weather permits. Thus far, I have sat indoor at the bar for my visits. The only complaint I have (and a few others mentioned it) is the bar seats seem a little low for the bar (or the bar is too tall for the seats). It works well if only having beverages but when attempting to eat it feels like a bit of a reach. Also, there are several TVs throughout the bar area. I met several staff members including the manager, chef and a couple of the bartenders. Steve manages the place does a great job of making sure everything is in order. Working the bar are a couple awesome ladies; Brook and Kay. Both did an excellent job of ensuring the bar was well attended to. Edward is the chef who has created some magical dishes. He mentioned the current menu is only temporary as they are expanding it the coming weeks to include more items. That said I was fortunate enough to sample a few things that might be coming and all I can say hurry up with the new items. As for parking, Harwood Tavern does not have a private parking lot. There is metered street parking and paid lots available nearby. If you're looking for a fun spot with delicious eats make your way to Harwood Tavern. Be sure to check the bar area as I just might be there.

Parliament posted their rainy-day happy hour on Instagram the same day I visited, so I was…read moresurprised when the tall bartender with glasses told me the special only applied if it was actively raining at that exact moment. He literally told me, "If a drop of rain comes, then I'll give it to you." It had rained for much of the day, and multiple customers were asking about the same promotion. If the requirement is that rain must physically be falling while you order, that needs to be clearly stated in the advertisement. Otherwise, the promotion feels misleading. I've been to Parliament several times and have never had a bartender interpret the rainy-day happy hour this way. I ended up ordering a smoked Old Fashioned from another bartender I've had before, and it was great. He was friendly, engaging, had great energy, and even did tricks while making the drink. I still enjoyed my cocktail, but it would've been nice to have the option to order from the happy-hour menu as advertised that day. I'm including the Instagram post for reference. I'm very disappointed as I've never not had a good time at Parliament. I really think that the owner should look at the Times stamps around 930 to 10:15pm part night and see the difference of business and traffic flow from when the taller bartender with the glasses versus the shorter Bartender with the glasses was at the front as it was instantly more business. Oh and lastly, I left my Betsy JOHNSON purple umbrella. I'm so sad and they don't have a number to call.

We checked in with the host and were quoted a 30-minute wait, which ultimately turned into 45 minutes. That said, once we were seated, the food came out pretty quickly. The Fried Brie is always a 10/10! The blueberry compote pairs beautifully with the brie, and I love that it's served with sliced baguette on the side. I ordered the Cacio e Pepe with added shrimp, while my husband went with the Bowen Cheeseburger. Unfortunately, the shrimp was extremely salty. I love a well-seasoned dish, but there's a difference between flavorful and overly salty. The seasoning completely overpowered the shrimp, so I ended up picking it off and enjoying the pasta on its own. The Bowen Cheeseburger was excellent, as always. Just keep in mind that you can't request it medium-rare since it's a smashburger. For dessert, I ordered a slice of cheesecake, which comes with the same blueberry compote served with the Fried Brie. It was delicious and earned a solid 9/10 from me! Overall, the food was great, as usual. Aside from the overly salty shrimp and the longer-than-quoted wait, we enjoyed our visit. I'd absolutely come back, especially for that Fried Brie!

Food, however, wasn't great, we came multiple times last year and it was fantastic all around, last night?... New risotto appetizer was flavorless 4/10, sauce was outstanding 9/10. Chicken meatballs were 6/10, salty, but sauce again was 8.5/10. Bread with the meatballs was 9/10. Nightly special was 9/10, chicken thigh wrapped chicken leg, amazing sauce and carrots. Special sauce with the nightly special stole the night at 9.5/10 - I'd order a bowl of that and call it a night! Magic Chicken Thighs were 6/10, overly salted and dry - side arugula salad was a salt bomb 2/10. Sweet potatoe purée was 7.5/10. Burger and fries were 7/10, solid and above average. Salmon was 7/10, slightly overcooked. Mac & Cheese was 3/10, below average, dry, almost flavorless - paid $4 for bacon topping and it was dry also. Noodles were dried out and the cheese sauce was at the bottom of the cup, tasted like they scooped in pre-made noodles, added sauce, threw it in the oven and off it went - didn't appear mixed together at the least. Carrots, solid 8/10. Overall, I'd be tempted to give it another try, the ambiance and overall feel is awesome - then hope the food is great again and make it a perfect Friday night spot, but for $275 for the 4 entree's, 2 appetizer's and 2 drinks we got last night?

A Happy Hour Hidden Gem in Dallas!…read more We took a day trip to Dallas to see the circus and decided to pop into a nearby bar for drinks and small bites. Parking was a challenge, but we opted for valet and, at only $10, it was totally worth it! We originally planned to check out Bar Eden for happy hour but accidentally walked into Paradiso, which is connected. Bar Eden is a little smaller and has more of an intimate, speakeasy vibe, while Paradiso has a gorgeous, lively atmosphere. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the happy hour specials were perfect for afternoon drinks--cocktails under $10! The margarita was delicious, and the other cocktails were just as pretty as they were tasty. One thing to know: it seems there's only one restroom, so the wait can be lengthy. BUT once you get inside, you'll understand why...because it's basically a girl's dream photo booth! Definitely plan a little extra time for the bathroom selfies. We didn't try the food this time, but the ambiance and music were on point. The outdoor seating is beautiful and elegant, although it was way too hot for daytime lounging during our visit. Overall, I'd absolutely come back--especially for happy hour! Great drinks, beautiful atmosphere, and plenty of photo-worthy moments.

After about 10 minutes my brother went up to the bar and asked if a server would be coming to take our order, and was told that they were busy (they did not look busy at all) but would get to us ASAP. Another 10 minutes went by and, as no one had still come to see us, we elected just to leave. They said nothing as we walked out of the restaurant. Aside from pulling up a chair on the (again, totally empty) patio, I have no idea what we did that could have made them so upset at us. The whole experience was really odd and super off-putting, particularly so as there was no communication at all from the wait staff.
