I stopped by Ampelos with my husband and brother last weekend when we were exploring Bishop Arts…read morefor a few hours before meeting our family for dinner. It had just started to rain when we arrived, so we sat inside - although their outside seating looked lovely. Ampelos is a bottle shop that sells a few select wines by the glass (maybe 8-10 options?). We tried a few wines they had by the glass (at least 3 different wines). They focus on natural wines, so I would have tried anything they offered! But they had a Southold wine that I knew I wanted (Southold is a Texas winery that closed up shop and moved to France, so they'll be running out of wine produced from their Texas grapes soon). We also grabbed a bottle that I gifted to my Dad later that evening. They offer a few small snacks (like olives) and flights on Wednesdays and Thursdays. The space is small, but cool (although it being on the darker side with neon lights for decor did make it look closed from the outside on a rainy day), and the service was great. I would definitely return. Ampelos is a place I would frequent if I still lived in Dallas!

Took the glass back to the server and she remarked "Oh, that's a big one! You didn't want to fish it out?" To which I replied "No!" with a scowl in my face. She said, "I'll get it out for you," and took it back. Removed the fly and handed it glass back to me! Didn't offer to give me a new glass or anything! As we were leaving, I took the glass in still filled with wine and she remarked, "Oh, you didn't want to finish it?" I said, "No. That would be gross."

The staff was very welcoming, knowledgeable, and friendly during our visit. Their pricing is affordable and appreciated. This is a bring your own food (BYOF) kind of place which I wasn't against at all, since so many near by places to pick up a snack on the way wouldn't be too hard. Their wine selection isn't large but I enjoyed the labels they provided and looking forward to returning to try more. All in all, it was a relaxing and enjoyable aftnoon and would reccomed others to stop by for a glass or bottle and enjoy a sip.

We started off with wine, and there is a pretty good selection of different wines that you can choose from. We did get 4 dishes and shared all of them.

This little spot use to be the lemonade place, however they have done a wonderful job recreating the space. Is intimate, great for a first date, a glass of wine, a girl friends gathering . . . And they serve food. I came with a large group of girlfriends for a Christmas party. We gathered at 7pm and I don't know if my hostess told them to wait but it was an hour before we ordered food but the food came out rather quickly. I ordered the pot roast and although the meat was TEN-DER, the meal itself lacked seasoning. I was told the roast was cooked in a Mississippi pot roast style, however besides seeing the pepperoncini, I wouldn't have known. The mashed potatoes lacked seasoning and it all felt a little greasy to me (too much butter which I never thought I would EVER say!). The staff were really nice and accommodating. I missed the sign that says fee for using credit card, but it was a small fee, but just so you know. There is a backyard/porch area as well. So a nice spot as the weather gets nicer and who doesn't love options. I will say I was eyeballing the salad - it was a nice portion size that could be shared. I was disappointed by the cost of the bread and the size of that but that's just me. Overall I'd give it another try.

4.1 This tasting room is a lovely addition to the spot where…read moreold Hattie's used to be, and it's great to see the space brought back to life so well. The atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed, making it an easy place to settle in and actually enjoy the experience rather than feeling rushed through a tasting. We tried a wine tasting and were pleasantly surprised by how much we enjoyed it. The Texas Tempranillo stood out with its depth and character, and the Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon was a clear favorite--bold, smooth, and well-balanced. I've also heard that Barons Creek hosts themed events, which adds another layer of appeal. The idea of pairing their wines with a fun or seasonal theme sounds like a great way to experience the tasting room. Beyond a standard visit, and I'm definitely looking forward to attending one of those events in the future. Take home message: Overall, this is a great spot for both casual wine drinkers and enthusiasts. Between the inviting location, quality wines, and engaging events, it's a place worth returning to.

I enjoyed the sexy, festive vibes, and the music remained at a comfortable volume, which is unheard of these days. The bartenders were attentive---I would say they merely met my expectations. However, if you've been to Tina's Continental, Jettison, Ginger's, Midnight Rambler, then you've been to Valle. Unfortunately, 2 out of the 4 places mentioned, have permanently closed. These places come a dime a dozen in Dallas, so I feel they will need to think outside of the box if they plan to stick around. I might be back if I were in the area; after all, decorative, unique craft cocktails in a cozy bar is always a win for me!

They offer a…read moredelightful little tapas menu and a few wine flights, including a blind flight that is perfect for budding sommeliers who want to test their palates. We tried a few bites - the patatas bravas, which are thinly fried potato chunks lightly dusted with paprika and topped with garlic aioli. It sounds simple, but was ridiculously addictive, and we found ourselves ordering another serving that night! We also tried the steak, which was perfectly cooked to our desired temperature (medium rare), but was otherwise pretty simply prepared, served atop steak sauce. And we also tried the burrata which came as two small pieces of toasted bread, juicy burrata and charred broccoli (also a simple but satisfying dish). All of the dishes are pretty small, so you would probably need to order at least a handful for a couple to feel pretty satiated, but that makes it fun to try more wine at the same time ;) We were curious about the pork belly, which the owner proclaimed to another guest that night to be "her favorite item on the menu." We can't wait to try that on our return visit (with another order or two of the patatas bravas, and maybe the tostadas too!). Definite recommend for a cute date night off the beaten path!

Seriously mouthwatering. Ambiance: Whether you're trying to get some work done, study, or just people-watch (my personal favorite lol), this spot delivers. Full bar, comfy booths, tables, indoor and outdoor seating, and a steady flow of background music that just sets the tone right. Service: Friendly, welcoming, and actually knows the menu--which we love. You can tell they care about the experience. Overall: 10/10, highly recommend. This is one of those places you'll keep coming back to without even thinking about it.

First of all, the Bishop Arts District itself is incredibly charming. Block after block of unique shops ranging from bookstores and bakeries to candle shops, candy stores, coffee spots, and little boutiques. It's exactly the kind of neighborhood I loveeeee exploring while traveling and if I lived in Dallas, I'd probably frequent this area often. As for The Wild Detectives, the concept alone immediately appealed to me...bookstore meets cafe meets bar meets restaurant. That combination will pretty much always grab my attention. I love to read, I love to eat. The space has a pretty relaxed, community oriented vibe, and during my Saturday morning/early afternoon visit, there were plenty of people working, reading, chatting, and hanging out both inside and on the patio. My one slight disappointment was that the bookstore side itself was smaller than I expected and didn't have quite as extensive a selection as I had imagined. That said, I still managed to leave with a few great additions for my ever growing TBR pile. Overall, this was a worthwhile stop and one I may revisit the next time I'm in Dallas.

Its a cute spot on the edge of bishop arts. There is a paid parking lot next door although they appear to do parking validation which i didn't know until id already paid. They were hosting trivia night doing a fundraiser with WISE which is why i showed up. There was complimentary prosecco with donations and overall it was a fun night. I will say when i arrived i was a bit annoyed. It was my first time there and when i said i was there for trivia i was told i could sit at the bar and would have to wait for my whole party to arrive. When my party arrived (regulars) they seemed to think that was crazy so maybe that policy depends on who you are. When i sat down at the bar i was ignored. I had to ask someone for a menu and i was directed to a QR code and then as far as ordering i was sitting there waiting for someone to notice me again for several minutes. Again, they weren't super busy. I finally was able to order and a few minutes later my friend showed up and we sat at our table. I ended up with a mexican coke, elote and avocado tostadas. The food was decent. Not exceptional. I wish the tostada had chunks of avocado instead, it was a thin later on the bottom. The elote was good. Maybe i just didn't order the right thing. My friends love the place and it appears to be a neighborhood staple. I will come back again with them and I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt with this review. Hopefully next time will be better.
