Overall: 4/5 To start: We enjoyed the food and overall the look of the restaurant. MOST of the wait staff was attentive and kind. I ordered a burger and it was cooked exactly as I wanted it. Someone else from my table ordered the steak and it stole the show. That was probably the best food item I tried. Would I say Knox Bistro should hold a Michelin Recommendation? Probably not. But the food was good, the place had a nice vibe. It was a decent local restaurant that is worth trying. read more

Ended up here after a longgg walk on Katy Trail with my three dogs. I was looking for a dog-friendly spot to grab a drink and relax, and Knox Bistro's covered patio was exactly what I needed. Arrived pretty late, so the kitchen and dessert service had already closed. I was really hoping to try the sticky toffee cake but that'll have to wait until next time. Instead, I tried the Hibiscus Paloma mocktail with grapefruit, lime, and Topo Chico, which was incredibly refreshing after being outside. The Garden soirée was also excellent and refreshing. The NBA game was on, and the whole place was really into it (including the staff) which made for a fun atmosphere. Service took a little longer than usual, but given the energy in the room, I honestly didn't mind. The covered patio was comfortable, dog-friendly, and a great place to unwind. read more

I've had many wonderful meals at Knox Bistro, so my boyfriend and I were really looking forward to a delicious, relaxing evening. The night started beautifully--we enjoyed espresso martinis at the bar and were then seated at one of our favorite tables. We ordered a bottle of wine and caviar and were settling in to plan the rest of our meal when the experience took a turn. A tween/teen birthday party was seated in the private room. At first, we assumed the noise was just initial excitement and would settle after a few minutes. The parents of the birthday girl were seated nearby, and when the mother got up, we expected she might ask the girls to lower their volume. Unfortunately, the opposite happened--she brought the group out into the main dining room for photos, where the noise level became even more disruptive. Another couple seated near us--at what is typically a very desirable table--lasted no more than five minutes before asking to be moved outside. Shortly after, a manager approached the private room. We anticipated they would address the noise, but instead, they greeted the party warmly and thanked them for being there, without making any effort to manage the disruption. After so many consistently great experiences, it was honestly shocking. We truly felt as though we were being punked. My boyfriend and I both have children and enjoy bringing them to nice restaurants, but part of that experience includes ensuring they understand and respect the environment. When that standard isn't upheld--especially with no support from management--it significantly detracts from the experience for everyone else. read more

Nice ambiance when you arrive and pleasant staff. Only issue with the place itself was that the music was too loud, but it was brunch time so I understand. When it comes to food, it was good. The benedict had a great biscuit with it and the hollandaise was solid, but the salmon made it a bit too salty for me. Also the side salad was just covered in more salt which was a bit overwhelming. Overall it was good, but I just found it too salty. The chicken and waffles however were great! The gravy and chili sauce blended well and the chicken was crispy. Only issues were that it was lukewarm/not hot and that it was even better with a side of syrup! I believe that Knox bistro has a lot to offer from appetizers, drinks, and more, so we will have to come back again during lunch or dinner. read more

Cute little French bistro with a warm, casual vibe. I've been here many times for brunch and lunch, but this was my first visit for dinner. Our server was bubbly, friendly, and full of great recommendations. We started with the charcuterie board, followed by the escargot, and then the foie gras. The foie gras was the standout--unexpectedly silky, creamy, and buttery, paired perfectly with fig marmalade. I practically licked the board clean. For my entrée, I ordered the grilled halibut, which was tender and flaky with great flavor, served over crisp greens and potatoes. Everything worked beautifully together. We finished with the sticky toffee pudding, which unfortunately was too dense and difficult to eat. Aside from that, it was a really enjoyable meal, and I'll definitely be back. read more

Ok ... this restaurant was a solid ten! Why, because they allowed us to rent out the "entire restaurant " right before New Year's Eve", for a very special event. Of course this was planned 3 months in advance. The food is French, the chef is French trained, and the food was absolutely amazing. See pics. It is tough pulling off an open bar drinks, multiple choice meal, and two item desert of such high quality. For a packed house. Hats off the to the entire staff. This restaurant is definitely on your must try list. read more

We have been intending to try Knox Bistro for a couple of years. I had in my head that it was a traditional French bistro (more like its sister concept La Bilboquet), but it is not, or not exactly. This place is special, and should be on everyone's Special Occasion Restaurant list. Knox Bistro offers upscale, high-quality, authentic French cuisine and superb service that rivals the best in Dallas. Everything we had was first class, from the complementary bread and butter, to the best simple salad I've had in years, through unique takes on traditional (and not so traditional) entrees and outstanding desserts. French cuisine is all about the sauce, a principal Knox Bistro demonstrates exceptionally well. Our group of five enjoyed the salmon, skate wing, pork chop, and filet entrees, as well as a special that was ground pork and beef and spinach in a puff pastry. Every main was accompanied by an expertly designed, perfectly paired sauce...creamy sorrel sauce with the salmon, brown butter/lemon with the skate wing, a perfect green peppercorn with the filet, and a distinctive mustard sauce with the pork chop. And don't think the sides were an afterthought either. The carrots were inspiring (maybe butter poached?) the mashed potatoes perfect. Only the frites missed the mark as they could have been warmer. I'm really not a dessert person...if anything post-entree tempts me at all, it is a cheese course (which Knox Bistro offers). But it was my birthday, and my family insisted that THEY would feel cheated without a sweet celebration. That said, I cannot stress enough...DO NOT SLEEP ON DESSERT AT KNOX BISTRO. The Paris Brest - a hazelnut cream puff - is a must try. So I call Knox Bistro a special occasion restaurant because of the sheer decadence of everything we had. I know they do it in France, but I'm not sure it would be sustainable on a regular basis. However they do have a brunch and a more casual lunch menu...so perhaps once could make a habit of it. Even as I write this, I'm wondering about what occasion we should mark next. The first day of fall is three days away for those who celebrate. See you at Knox Bistro! read more

I've been here a handful of times over the years and have never left disappointed. Great location with a few free parking spots nearby. The interior is lovely and they'll play lovely music.

This is one of my favorite brunch spots in Dallas, but I came here the other day for dinner and was (not surprisingly) blown away. The service is top notch always and the atmosphere cannot be beat. It's fancy but the prices are actually reasonable. My table got a lot of different options and everyone was really impressed. The soufflé basically changed my life and I will never order anything else during dinner time. Also don't skip dessert!!!!! read more

Knox Bistro is a high quality French bistro in the Knox Henderson neighborhood in Dallas. We visited recently for Valentine's Day, but we beat the crowds and went the night before. They're a great addition to the neighborhood and offer a great experience. The food, cocktails and service are fantastic. We chose to hit the bar for a cocktail before being seated. The bartenders are friendly, attentive and willing to make anything you'd like. I went off menu for my first cocktail and ordered a Black Manhattan after spotting a bottle of Averna on the very top shelf (photo #2). The bartender was like Spider-Man jumping up on the bar to retrieve it. I wasn't sure how he was going to get up there, but it was impressive. He did a great job and it was made perfectly. My second cocktail (photo #5) was a French 75. I wanted something lighter with dinner and it was great. I am very impressed with their pours. It seems to be common these days that bars are using smaller cocktail glasses and serving smaller cocktails. That's incredibly annoying especially when you're spending $15 a cocktail, but Knox Bistro is doing the opposite. They pour a healthy cocktail. Well done!! Btw, the French fare is excellent and the reason we've been back a number of times. If you're in the mood for a high quality French bistro make sure to check out Knox Bistro. You'll love it. Salute.

Great atmosphere and a perfect brunch spot in one of my favorite neighborhoods. I've been here for dinner too and it's great; but on a sunny day you can't beat it for brunch. There is patio seating and lots of menu items (all on the French-side). Good cocktails and wine list, too! Highly recommend taking your friends or family here! read more

We went here on a weekday night for dinner with some friends and the restaurant was pretty busy. Their patio area is enclosed so it was nice to sit out there and it wasn't too cold or noisy. Our food was all very good. My entree of the filet was amazing, my friend got the steak frites and said the chimichuri on it was great! My girlfriend's soufle was also incredible and she wished she could order again! Our service was great as well! I would definitely recommend! read more

Thank you!!!!!! read more

I wanted to love this place because the food looked great, but honestly a few things set me back. We went on a super busy day, so they weren't taking walk-ins except at the bar, which worked out fine, we got a seat pretty quick. But then...it took the bartender a while to get our drink orders and even just bring us water. Once we ordered/received the drinks, it went further downhill. Our bartender completely disappeared, I flagged down both other bartenders to order and they both acted like we weren't THEIR customers so they wouldn't take our order. It was about 20 minutes from getting our drinks to even ordering the food. Food came pretty quick, however my fries were "warm" at best, and all of our toast/bread was over-charred. The BLT was so messy and hard to eat, it was terrible TBH. Another friend ordered the baked egg (I think) which came out piping hot, but again, charred toast:/ the apple French toast tho, was really spot on. When we paid, we asked for separate tabs (some ordered more than others), he said yes but really just split the whole bill 3 ways. Service as a major setback and no one was really pleased with their meals. Pictures are pretty tho. read more

I was very excited to try Knox bistro after the Michelin recognition. Overall, I felt that it was a very good meal, but part of me still wanted more- especially for the price. We enjoyed the charcuterie board and steak frites, which were both well made but I found myself looking for more.The ambience was warm yet still upscale making it great for date night. I would come back here again but would likely try other items on the menu. read more

Service was pretty good and this place was really like a French bistro with cute decor. I would say that it was good but didn't exceed expectations. The quiche lorraine was absolutely Devine and super rich and decadent. The salad that came with it was less so and same with the other sides as well. The salad was standard and tasty but nothing to write home about. Overall this place is a 8/10. It just lacked more French items on their list. I would try again to see if other foods change my opinion, but it was a good cute spot. read more

I came here with a group of friends and we had a great time! The staff was friendly and extremely helpful. Unfortunately, our server kept disappearing and that was a little frustrating but if we asked someone walking by they were more than helpful. The food was tasty. I really enjoyed the escargot, plenty of flavor. 8/10 The Knox burger was really good as well. I was a smidge salty they don't carry ranch, but overall the burger was great. 8/10 Shortcake: 6/10 I can't remember the name of the chocolate dessert we had but it was delicious! 9/10 I will add, they did have valet behind the building but given the lack of parking in the area I would've appreciated complimentary valet. However, that's my only gripe. I would return. read more

Had a late brunch here with a few friends and vibes were definitely high. Friendly and efficient service. Got the sticky bun for the table and it was so good it didn't even occur to me to snap a pic.

Never have I had a better grilled cheese!!! I got the soup and sandwich du jour and it was an insanely incredible choice. The grilled cheese was crisped perfectly with delicious cheeses inside. Now the cauliflower soup was even more delicious. For context, I'm not even normally a cauliflower fan. It was a wonderful mix of flavors and I'd happily eat it any day of the week. Service was kind and efficient - consistently refilling my water etc. Would recommend for a nice day with the girls or a lunch date. I look forward to going back on my next visit to Dallas read more

Gracious staff. Delectable food. Delicious cocktails and wine. The loveliest ambiance. Year after year, this restaurant only gets better.

While in Dallas today for an appointment we visited Knox Bistro on a friend's recommendation. We found the staff, and particularly our server Catherine, all quite friendly and attentive. Catherine was able to answer my several questions about various dishes knowledgeably and thoroughly. We began with a brut Cava for my wife and the Garden Soirée cocktail for myself. One of my favorite coctails is a Last Word and this is very similar. This cocktail features Green Chartreuse, St. Germain, cucumber syrup, lime and gin. It is an excellent summer cocktail. It was poured in an elegant, tall Tom Collins glass with ice. One called for another and I asked our server if it might be poured up. The second one came to the table looking quite sophisticated and stylish having been poured in a coupe. And to my taste was even more enjoyable served in this manner. See my pic. On our friend's recommendation to not pass up the Cheese Soufflé, which our server noted is one of the bistro's most popular dishes, we decided to share that along with the Le Cordon Bleu sandwich. We very rarely indulge in sandwiches or burgers, both of which we love, but this offering proved to be irresistible, catching us at a weak moment. LOL. The cheese soufflé was indeed very nice. I forget all the cheeses used in the recipe but they included Gruyère and blue cheese. Both the soufflé and bubbling sauce that surrounds it in the small cast iron skillet are a cheese lover's dream. The Sancerre I chose to accompany my lunch complimented the cheese dish superbly. We are so glad we shared the sandwich as it is huge! The chicken breast is stuffed with Gruyère cheese, pan fried, and served on a ciabatta roll with ham and a tasty cabbage remoulade that provides a lovely flavor compliment and crunch to the sandwich. The sandwich is accompanied by a petite lettuce salad that is lightly dressed in a vinaigrette. A delightful lunch in a delightful bistro that I too now can highly recommend. read more

I went here to celebrate my birthday. I was placed in an area where it was extremely hot and there was no AC. I made a reservation ahead of time, yet, there was still not enough seats for all my guests when I arrived. The fries were very hard and the steak needed more seasoning on it. They do not have a "ranch" but make their own sauce as a substitute (I would stick to ketchup instead). The server was sweet and brought out complimentary dessert. You'll have to find street parking or valet in the back. If you're someone who doesn't like either, ridesharing is your best bet. read more

Overpriced and under-delivered. We came for a specific special menu item they had advertised on their website that night. Once seated the waiter told us there was no special menu and the item was not available. He later confirmed that the special menu was, in fact, on their website after all but the advertised item wasn't available. We had already ordered drinks so we stayed. You could almost buy a bottle of Tito's vodka for the $21 they charged for an undersized martini. Dining room was open to the open-windowed patio so we shared the evening with flies and mosquitos. I would have said the food was good -- though overpriced -- had the salmon not kept me up all night with an upset stomach. And don't bother dressing for dinner...we were surrounded by people in sweats, shorts, t-shirts and even a gimme cap. I get that we're on Knox but not exactly the ambience you expect for a $220 dinner for two, which included a bottle of wine that we had to pour for ourselves. Complete disappointment. read more

Whether you live in Dallas or visiting I'd highly recommend the Knox Bistro. We were greeted by Francois who was splendid and we were looked after by Rashid who was great at recommending dishes. I was entertaining for business and the ambience, service and food quality was out of this world. I lived in France for a few years and the food was very traditional and French. I was impressed and will definitely keep coming here when in Dallas. Thank you to the team for a great experience. read more

Yesssssss! We picked a good one! Loved our little birthday brunch outting here at Knox Bistro. We celebrated a lovely lady here. It was delicious and delightful. Good coffee, brunchy creations and feel. We had a wonderful server. He was friendly and fun. Everyone was nice, lots of smiles and sweet check-ins. I got the monte cristo- so good! We all shared a sweet Dutch baby. Super tasty. We also had an amazing pecan pastry prior to all the savory dishes- so goooodie!!! I enjoyed the potato soup before our entrees arrived- very hearty and savory. The croutons were the star. My only suggestion- new coffee cups please- I have chi boy fingers but my friends couldn't get a hold on their cups either. Everything else was wonderful wonderful wonderful. read more

Firstly, the staff is very nice, and like the aesthetics. We went in for brunch today, and none of us were impressed. Second, Negroni Sbagliato is disgusting. If you like that drink, I'm definitely judging you lol. The Framboise was pretty decent as was the sangria. I got the quiche Lorraine which was decent, but I'd take the quiche at Toulouse over this one any day. However, I do prefer the petit salad at Knox. Their dressing is better. My daughter got the French toast. She said it was good, but could have been sweeter. We shared a Dutch baby that didn't have much flavor. Between the both of us we only ate 1/4 of it. My husband got the steak frites. He said it was okay. We all agreed that we didn't have to come back read more

Many visits I've made to Knox Bistro. Appealing elegant contemporary bistro interior. Flirty patio. Enticing bar. Smart casual crowd. Nice service. While I do appreciate the tastiness of their brunch and dinner entrees, including "Soft Scrambled Eggs with Gravlax" and "Branzino a la Provençal" ... Happiest I am with sips of their "French 75" while nibbling on their "Soufflé au Fromage" OR sips of "Coffee" while nibbling on their "Baked Alaska". CHEERS! read more
