I truly thought this would be a gimmicky place but it surprised us and truly had more than what met the eyes. The inner dining hall seems to be reserved for dinner so everyone was sat outside. There were plenty of fans so it was temperate. The coffees and drinks were a miss but the star of the show was the matcha soufflé pancakes. The pancakes were extremely fluffy and paired extremely well with the sabayon. Honestly, the sabayon was so good, it almost felt like we could drink it. Everything else we ordered, was good, but nothing phenomenal. Had they been, this would undoubtedly get a 4, maybe even a 5. It's currently a 3.5 in my books. read more

Pullman Plate, Shaking Beef, Five Spice Duck Breast, Whole Fried Snapper This was an absolutely beautiful place. Such a unique setting and we luckily had dinner watching the sunset. The drinks were so special and delicious and fun! The food though was debatable. The Pullman plate was a fun way to start, and had some good bites, but overall felt very heavy and needed a light note. The chicken satay was weird and tasteless. The mains we got of the beef and duck were excellent! Cooked tenderly and seasoned well. The snapper was ginormous and so interesting. Overall though the meal felt very heavy and salty and just needs a few more light refreshing notes to bring it up to par to its beautiful atmosphere. Valet parking available out front, as well as a sort of cramped garage for free parking read more

This was Asian fusion executed well. We had been curious to try this place as it is located right off the Katy Trail. However, to our surprise the interior was more upscale than we believed. Cloth table settings and wait staff dressed in sleek black attire. Perhaps not the place you want to dine in after a casual walk as we definitely felt a little underdressed. No matter, because we were seated immediately with no reservation for Sunday Brunch. Patio seating was comfortable with outdoor heaters overhead. Everything we ordered definitely screamed "comfort" with every bite. The Congee was a familiar fuse of home-y porridge with a complement of creamy chicken savoriness. I feel indifferent about the ambiance due to the fact that this restaurant is right off the trail next to a coffee shop. While the interior is gorgeous, I would feel discouraged in stopping in again knowing that it feels a little "too" dressed up for a brunch-y bite. read more

Highly Recommend! My first time coming to Dallas and Le PasSage did not disappoint. Ambiance: The restaurant was super gorgeous, inside, outside, even in the bathroom! I recommend coming here for brunch where you get to sit outside on the porch. Even on a super hot day, the seats are shaded and cool. Your view is the Katy Trail. Dinner wise, the inside has a beautiful ambiance. Food: DELICIOUS! The Match Japanese Pancakes were super good. I don't like too sweet of anything and this was perfect. The matcha sauce made the fluffy pancakes 10x more delicious. I love me a good egg entree and the Eggs Florentine did not disappoint. Parking: If you don't plan on valet parking, it is hard to find any spots. Valet was only $5 for brunch. read more

I'm usually wary of fine dining Chinese fusion restaurants since I am such a fan of authentic hole-in-the-wall Chinese restaurants, but I'll admit I was pleasantly surprised at how good Le PasSage was. It is right next to the Katy trail near Knox Henderson, and they offer valet parking, garage parking, or street parking if you're lucky. Reservations were easy to make on Resy. I came with a group of friends and we decided to order family style. We started with a collection of appetizers including the rose salad, spring rolls, yellowtail crudo, and shumai. The rose salad was really delicious and tangy (amazing dressing) and the spring rolls were my favorite appetizer. We then ordered the shaking beef, steamed halibut, and duck breast for entrees and all three were delicious. We also got the green beans, chinese broccoli, and fried rice which were the perfect accompaniment to our entrees. Part of me wanted to try the peking duck, but I couldn't get over the $180 price tag and you're also apparently supposed to call ahead and reserve one because they have a limited number each day. Overall, delicious food, cute ambience, and great service! I wouldn't say any of the dishes were authentic, but they were very well seasoned and the flavor profiles worked well together. Would be perfect for a romantic date night! read more

Le PasSage - (clockwise from top left) fried rice, green beans, shaken beef, duck breast, chinese broccoli, and halibut - French Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Pros: The location and ambiance is beautiful. Garden room is perfect on a nice night. The server was well informed and attentive (albeit the drinks came out very slow and that's on the bar). The chive cakes tasted very authentic. Cons: I think the Asian inspired uniforms are kind of gimmicky and don't match the $$$ menu. The food was fine but not great in contrast to prices. I had the duck breast and not warm and was overcooked. My friend ordered fried rice without green onions but they said it wasn't possible so it made us wonder if it was premade. We were offered the jasmine rice instead. I'd probably go back for cocktails but hard to recommend the food... read more

Tried this restaurant on a weekday night. The atmosphere was very chic but wasn't very busy. The food was alright. I can't say that I would think of the restaurant as a place to go to again but I wouldn't be opposed to it if someone suggested it, particularly for brunch as my friend said that brunch was better. Main negative was that they had the doors open so there were flies we had to keep swatting while trying to eat (even though we were indoors). Eventually about a quarter of the way through the meal a waiter brought a contraption to swat the flies, which was helpful but...it would have been even more helpful to close the doors. read more

I had low expectations when I read reviews. First, they didn't have a surcharge for credit card. That is a good improvement. And the food is actually delicious. I had authentic Peking duck from quite a few most authentic restaurants in Beijing. The Peking duck here is not bad surprisingly although the price tag is kind of scary ( 190 usd). And it definitely can't feed 4 and we are all girls and not big eaters. The appetizer platter is my favorite. The rose sorbet is a must try! read more

Beautiful ambience restaurant . That's about it! Food was subpar & tasted bland , menu was limited, nothing stood out in their dishes. We were disappointed with our steak quality. Overall pricey & does not offer anything exciting for us to recommend or return. This is the first restaurant that charges a fee for using credit card! Ridiculous! Valet was also not complementary . read more

I've been excited to try this place for a while as I saw it getting built while walking the Katy Trail. Before I made the reservation, I was surprised to see the ratings were so low. I hold the belief that people tend to be overly critical of new restaurants, and I believe this is the case here. The food was delicious. I didn't have one plate that I didn't love. The pictured "Pullman Plate" was a great way to try 4 different appetizers on the menu. The drinks were also great, albeit quite pricey. The atmosphere was perfect for a date or a nice dinner out with friends. The only thing that left something to be desired for me was dessert. Although, I must say I have a huge sweet tooth, and the two desserts we had were very good, but not sweet enough for me. Overall, Le PasSage is a wonderful new dinner spot that's worth the try. The biggest thing to note would be the price. It's easy to rack up quite a bill here even compared to some of Dallas' other nicer restaurants. read more

I loved everything about this restaurant! I'm not sure why it is listed as Italian on Yelp as it is a mix of French and Asian?? It has fabulous interiors which set the mood! I mean the hanging light fixture just inside the dining room!! and the sconces above the booths lining the back wall are insane! Our server was amazing as well... obviously busy but he was very attentive! The food is outstanding! I love the combo of French and Asian! It fits our lives perfectly as my husband loves French and I love Asian! He said the duck was the best he has ever had! We will definitely be going back a LOT! read more

I've been wanting to try this place for a while and so glad I got to come for dinner with a few work friends. The restaurant is beautiful and just off the Katy Trail making it such a great location. We ordered several appetizers to start and our favorites by far were the rose salad and the spring rolls. I didn't expect to like the rose salad so much, but the dressing was tangy and absolutely delicious. We then tried several entrees and the side dishes. The shaking beef was tender and flavorful and the halibut was absolutely delicious. I also loved the Szechuan string beans but they did not have the traditional Szechuan pepper that I thought it would have. Chinese broccoli had little flavor and the fried rice was nothing special. Our waiter was very accommodating and helpful, especially since I had a nut allergy and ensured that everything we had was nut free. Overall, a great place for dinner though a little overpriced! read more

This place is undeniably cute, both inside and out, and it's in a great location. The interior has a romantic, dimly lit, upscale vibe, while the patio is more casual and bright--with light pink water glasses and a breezy feel. Unfortunately, the patio booth-tables are packed way too close together, making it feel cramped. The one highlight? The lychee martini--it was genuinely good, minus the weird addition of the lemon peel with popping boba. Beyond that, the experience was disappointing across the board. The food was bland and forgettable, and my date's old fashioned was poorly made. Even stranger, we weren't allowed to order appetizers until we were ready to order our entrées--something about "kitchen timing." I've never encountered that policy at any restaurant, and it immediately made the meal feel rigid and unwelcoming. Service was slow and lacked basic attentiveness. When the food was brought out, the server asked if everything "came out correctly"--but never followed up about how anything actually tasted, either then or after it was clear we had barely touched our entrées. We declined boxes, yet no one asked why or showed any interest in whether we enjoyed the meal. Even the bathrooms were frustrating--confusing to find with too few stalls for the setup to function smoothly. In hindsight, we should have paid more attention to the many negative Yelp reviews. The glowing Resy ratings feel misleading--something just doesn't add up. Safe to say, we won't be returning. read more

We went for bruch at Le PasSage yesterday. The food was mediocre. But the service was even worse. The restaurant does not seem to have competant management in place. None of the people working there seemed to care about their job, no less any pride. The restaurant was empty. I'm not surprised, would not give it another try. read more

Dude. Absolutely not. Don't do it. The food was either too salty, or just too far gone to be "Asian inspired". The most authentic thing about this restaurant is the MANDATORY CREDIT CARD CHARGE. (I don't even remember the last time an Asian auntie actually had a cc charge, so how dare you lol) We did the usual thing when they came by to ask us how the food was, and just said everything was "good". But noodles are my family business, so when the lobster noodles came out slimy and limp, we let them know the noodle choice for the was a bit odd (think Korean soft knife cut flour noodles in a corn starch slurry, instead of dryer lo-mein or customary Chinese yi-mian) and she looked *bothered*. Told us that their food was not meant to be authentic but she guessed she "could let the kitchen know". They got my wife's drink wrong a couple times, and eventually when it came out right, it was just a basic mixed drink with a tajin/ salted rim and a shiso leaf. Nothing Asian about it so it's extra cringy to call it "Buddha Bliss". You'd have at least moderate expectations if a restaurant appropriated your religion into "Jesus Juice" right? Yikeeesss easily the worst Dallas dining experience. Target audience is definitely not clientele who enjoy Asian food. Silver lining: the Tom kha scallops were actually great. 5 thin slices of scallops in Thai coconut sauce. If the menu was all good like this maybe I wouldn't have minded the cc charge. read more

Such a great spot in terms of setting and location. Drinks great as well. We ordered 6 different things off the menu , 3 of them great the other 3 not at all. In the effort of being constructive; new chef new menu and it could be one of the best restaurants in dallas. read more

This place is stunning. I went for brunch but I bet it's even prettier in the evening for dinner. We ordered chicken and waffles and french toast..it was all good. The chicken had a sweet taste to it (just a heads up). The service wasn't the best unfortunately. Our waiter constantly forgot about us. I'm going to assume/hope she was new. Overall I would definitely return. read more

I had a really nice night here. The space is beautiful. The staff was very attentiv, and the sommelier was spot on with his red choice. Our server helped us pick some super tasty appetizers. We especially loved the scallop crudo and spring rolls. For main, we shared the whole fried snapper with sides of green beans and fried rice. Yum!! Only issue was the desserts. They were just ok. Nothing as good as the two other courses. I will be back though. read more

Food was good actually worth the price vs places in the area. The server was super nice. (I forget her name) ambiance was cute and enclosed which is appreciated during Texas summer. read more

Le PasSage - Japanese pancakes - French Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I do wanted to give this place a 5 star but in the end, I couldn't. The good: Atmosphere and location, being greeted at the door by the owner and the service staff were all excellent. Drinks were just strong enough to be worth the higher price. The special Espresso martini did not taste any different to me than the regular espresso martini. The rest of my group enjoyed their drinks. Appetizers need some help. The Vietnamese Spring rolls were hot and very much fried but more like fried dough. Served with lettuce leaves for wrapping and dipping and were a mess to eat. The leaves were so small you couldn't wrap these giant spring rolls and thus you had to use many leaves that dripped the sauce all over. Would have been so much better with larger butter lettuce leaves or similar larger leaf. The Rose salad was shareable and good and the dressing was light and flavorful. Dinner: We were seated at 7:30 and so we were early and when we ordered the high recommended fried snapper, we were told it was sold out.I it was a disappointment they didn't have it at this early seating. Our table of 4 quickly changed direction and ordered separate entrees. The five-spice duck breast was beautiful and the meat was tender without being fatty but it was not served hot and barely warm and the sauce was struggling to be recognized and was like a boring gravy and did nothing to inspire the 5 spice dish name. (I should have sent this back) My partner ordered the Braised Tofu and it was flavorful and served hot. The steamed halibut was also very fresh and the texture was perfect and as was the sauce. For desserts, I wouldn't bother as they were all flavorless and boring. While they are all beautiful and creative, there was a total lack of any sweetness in any of them. I'm including pictures of the dishes but be forewarned, they lack any character or semblance of a sweet ending. And finally comes the bad part, what in the world is Stephen thinking of tacking on a $14 service charge for the convenience of using a credit card. It certainly put a damper on the evening. Mind you, this was a $550+ dollar check and then the restaurant is adding a processing fee? Next they will be charging for tap water and silverware. Come on restaurants, wake up and realize this drives people nuts when they are spending this much money for dinner. Just build the cost into the meal and stop this "resort fee Idiocracy". (This goes for Maison Chinoise, Georgies and the rest of you who are trying out this penny-pinching. ) read more

I want this restaurant to be GREAT, and it's really not--at least not yet. Given their other concepts, I'm confident they'll figure it out. We provided some feedback to our server about the food but she was like "oh sorry you didn't like it" so I want to make sure it actually gets in front of someone who can do something about it. First off, the cocktails were great. Cocktail list is a little short, and I was confused by the absence of some cocktails that were on the menu next door at rose cafe. Appetizer left the most to be desired of anything. We had the sampler platter. The egg roll and the tuna in the yuzu leaf were both very good. The flavor on the shrimp toast was great, but it was so unappetizingly greasy. The thing that just kind of put me off immediately was the chicken satay, which was a flavorless piece of chicken (in spite of having a nice color to it, oddly), that was coated in some sort of cream gravy. That was a 0/10. Like, go to any Thai restaurant in Dallas, order chicken satay, and see what you're missing. That's a pretty tough dish to screw up. The Chinese broccoli was a decent side, but very pricey at $16 for what was just ultimately, simple sautéed broccoli. The Texas wagyu was a perfectly lovely dish, as was the halibut. But neither made me go, "yes, THAT is why I'd come back" or "yeah that's going to be their signature dish." I think one thing this restaurant needs to figure out is whether the concept is to do something traditional and really nail it (currently does not) or to do something truly innovative and deliver value in that way (it currently does not). The experience did not feel commensurate with the price. Bullion was such a transformative restaurant under Chef Bruno and Stephan is such an otherwise talented restaurateur, so I'm confident they'll figure it out. I look forward to returning in a few months to discover they're absolutely killing it! read more

Was excited to try this place but unfortunately it was a pretty big letdown. Drinks were good but the food left a lot to be desired especially for the price point. Given the quantity of good restaurants in Dallas I don't think I'll be coming back soon. Also, adding a 3% credit card processing fee is a penny pinching gimmick. read more

Totally agree with the other reviews here. The setting is GORGEOUS. The patio was just perfect, I'd love to sit out there when it's less busy. It's very loud as it was so crowded. The server was trying but she seemed overwhelmed; she forgot several of our drinks, talked about menu items then said "but actually we are out of that"-three times, and disappeared for long stretches of time. Food was...fine. I've had much much better Asian food as take out. My meal was heavy on butter and low on flavor. Like others here have said I wanted to LOVE this place. But it needs a lot of work to live up to the owners other spot at Knox Bistro-which is a 10/10, this is a 6. read more

Very nice location with patio facing the Katy Trail, but food is so-so and expensive. Service was okay but nothing exceptional, except for the hostess who advised us about parking when we called ahead, and who tracked us down to make sure we received validation. read more

TERRIBLE FOOD! While the service and ambiance were commendable, the food fell far short of expectations. Buddha Bliss: Decent, but significantly overpriced for what it was Chinese Baby Back Ribs: Extremely fatty with no discernible flavor. A true disappointment Shu Mai: Both the shrimp and pork were overly chewy and tough--nearly inedible Steamed Halibut: The one saving grace of the meal; well-prepared and enjoyable Five Spice Duck Breast: The caramelized mango advertised was just a plain mango slice, and the dish was entirely lacking in flavor To add to the frustration, the restaurant doesn't validate valet parking and charges a 3% fee for credit card payments. While these charges might seem minor, they left a sour impression, especially at a restaurant positioning itself as high-end. It gave the sense that corners might be cut in other areas--perhaps even in the quality of the food, which was shockingly poor overall. This experience did not meet expectations for a restaurant of this caliber. read more

Our group of six went for dinner last night and overall had a great time. Below are a few takeaways from our evening. - Make sure to sit inside, not on the patio. Not that the patio is bad by any means, but the vibe and ambiance inside is amazing. - Service and drinks were good, nothing special but got the job done. We got a big bottle of Sake for under 100$ which was honestly a steal. - We tried a ton of the appetizers and mains. If I went again, I'd bypass all of the appetizers and go right into these mains: Lobster for 2, the Waygu stir fry beef, and the duck breast. - End the night with their donut dessert and you'll be a happy camper. read more

Went here with my family for my brother's college graduation dinner. Food was lackluster; not much flavor depth in any of the appetizers, especially in the chicken skewers. Main courses all came out warm at best, and my sister was served raw chicken. The service was nice, as our waitress did comp the chicken, but otherwise, nothing special. Kitchen needs improvement. It was a very pretty looking restaurant as well, but for the price point and food quality, I would not come back here again. read more

Beautiful restaurant and setting, patio is the perfect ambience for a nice evening. Service was good. Food is terrible. Lackluster at best and salty without any other type of flavor depth. Would recommend getting a new chef in this place could be something! read more

Beautiful restaurant. Nice presentation. Food lacked flavor/seasoning and the sauces in particular seemed unbalanced. To boot, we were charged for every soda refill along with a 3% service charge for paying with a credit card. For a restaurant touting their Michelin star chefs, the experience was memorable for the wrong reasons. read more

The ambiance is great. But we were not so happy with the service. He could have been a little more enthusiastic since this is a new place and perhaps explain more about the menu. Unfortunately we also were not lucky with our food. The chicken satay was bland and really not special and so was the chicken dish. My husband had the duck breast which was cold - and they took it back. He ordered fried rice as a side and got jasmine rice. Also the dessert coconut tapioca wasn't to our liking. We decided to give the restaurant some months before trying it again. But when our bill came and they added a 3% surcharge for using a credit card - this did it for us.They didn't acknowledge the surcharge. We went twice to LePasSage in one evening: first and last time. We give it 2 stars but only for the interior of the restaurant. read more

Made reservations earlier in the day and requested the peking duck and dined with friends on the patio and were impressed beyond words. Each had a dish of homemade hoisin which was over the top delicious to use for the duck. The miso spinach dumplings were a beautiful appetizer accompanied by a superb sauce and cocktails were creative and perfect. This place was full throttle for a Monday and the vibe was nice and chill. Will definitely return soon. We highly recommend the duck- It was exquisite in presentation, portion and flavor. read more

The food was over priced and just ok. Shared the red snapper with a date and it was flavorless, you have to include the toppings with the lettuce wrap for enjoyment. The drinks pretty good but again over priced. read more

Second time trying. Actually was worse than first. First time, the service lacked a lot of be desired. Second time, the food was the issue. We found everything to be salty and so greasy. Seasoning is so off. It's just soy sauce. No depth of flavor at all. Shaking beef (the reason we went back) was so salty and in a pool of grease. Service was better but that is it for us. Not real Asian food. $420 for 3 people with tip read more

It's an overly priced Chinese restaurant with a 70s vibe. Yes there is "Asian" chicken satay on the menu but the rest feels very it's Chinese. The claim is that it's all made with French technique. It was very disappointing for the vibe and price. And the valet was a bit cranky. There are other spots to eat at. read more
