    When going tk a new restaurant, I always ask what's the best thing in the menu. I was told the crispy loaded potatoes and the seared chicken - so that's what I ordered. Both were so, so delicious! There a hint of heat to the chicken dish so be sure to read the menu description, but it didn't bother me. The interior is wonderful! Walls of windows is always a plus for me. Warm wood with other textures Om the wall to break up the wood being the dominate force. Great lighting to set a fun atmosphere.

    Last minute decision for an early Sunday dinner and this restaurant did not disappoint. We started with the loaded crispy potatoes then for our entrees we had the burger and peanut satay noodle salad. We opted for the side Caesar instead of fries with the burger and glad we did. The salad was delicious, and honestly not sure fries could be better than those amazing crispy loaded potatoes! My satay noodle salad was perfection, the flavors were bold and balanced. I will certainly go back and order this again. Although as we watched other tables get their food, everything looked delicious so maybe next time we may try that gorgeous pizza or eye popping wings! Don't sleep on the bar, the drinks were equally as good!

    Dog friendly, cool patio!

    One of our neighborhood favorites! Excellent food and service. Dog friendly patio with misters and fans so even on a hot summer evening, the patio is very comfortable. Highly recommend!

    It's a good sports bar and grill in Knox/Henderson if you're looking for a cool and laid back place to eat, drink or watch a game. Fish Tacos are mid, spicy chicken sandwich and Carnivore pizza was good. We really enjoyed the Spicy Edamame. Service started off well but towards the end couldn't find our server. Overall a decent place.

    Finding a parking spot was hard during dinner time! The lot was packed and I had to drive through it twice, along with some other cars looking for a spot; but, fortunately someone walked to their car on my second time through so I lucked out with a good spot. I came for an event and so I was seated pretty quickly. But, it took awhile for a server to come by even to offer water; I'm not sure if it's because she was waiting for more people to show up to my table or what, but the hostess noticed and got her to eventually come. The atmosphere was very loud and lively during dinner time. The spacing seemed decent between the tables, so it didn't feel crowded where I was seated. The pork and shrimp dumpling appetizer was tried by our table. I thought that it was tasty. And I decided on the Korean BBQ poke bowl for my entree, which I appreciated.

    After months of anticipation, I finally visited this popular local spot in the Henderson area of Dallas, Texas. With so many glowing videos and reviews online, my expectations were high--though I was prepared for a long wait. Right from the start, there were red flags. There was no hostess at the front, so the bartender had to step out from behind the bar to seat us and hand us menus. Walking in on a Sunday afternoon at 2:00 PM to find the restaurant only about 35% full was not a great sign. Our waitress took a full 23 minutes to even greet our table--we almost walked out. She wasn't busy either; I saw her folding napkins at the bar with the other servers while we waited. When she finally took our drink order, I asked about their well tequila and was surprised to hear they use Toro. Most restaurants (even non-high-end ones) pour something a little better. For food, I ordered the Spicy Chicken Sandwich, which I actually preferred from Chick-fil-A. The Poke Bowl was just okay, but the Carnivore Pizza was by far the best thing we tried. After we finished our food, the waitress immediately asked if we were ready for our bill, like she was eager to close out our tab. We told her no and ended up ordering two more rounds of drinks. If I were the server, I would have been trying to sell more items, not rushing to close the table. In my opinion, if the food isn't outstanding, the price and service need to make up for it. Unfortunately, we didn't find either one worth returning for. It's a great location and potential, but they're missing the mark. Lowering the prices, or is ok on the price but better food for what we order and improving the service, and maybe adding a live DJ for Sunday brunch could help turn things around.

    Best bar/restaurant where the food, drinks, and ambiance are all top notch. Great spot to watch a game or just hang out with friends. It's consistent and the service is typically great. I've tried almost everything on the menu and it's all good - the pizzas, the Caesar, onion rings, the crispy potatoes, yum.

    I have a rule: If you're selling a Modelo draft for $8 dollars, you're not getting a 5-star. Local Public Eatery caters to the "public" of Highland Park and Southern Methodist sorority girls. The cheapest thing on the menu is the $18 chicken sandwich, cocktails start at $16, and the server upsold me ranch by... lying?? "Do you want ranch on the side?" she asked, not telling me it'd be $3 dollar "truffle ranch" when Ranch = Hidden Valley in 99% of America. The food and service was otherwise decent but there's nothing I dislike more than greedy restaurants that take advantage of SMU kids' Dad's wallets at the expense of normal folk (Looking at you too Javier's). Next time I want basic American food I'll go to a basic American place, perhaps where Modelo drafts are priced at an appropriate $5.

    I've been here twice now. Both time have been great! I split the burger with a friend and they cut it in half and served it on two plates. Staff is always really nice.

    Fully loaded baked potatoes
    Kristy S.

    Excellent service - Brandy was so sweet and totally on it without being obtrusive. The food, not so much. EVERYTHING was WAY overly salted. The Regular Pizza was covered with a thick coating of oil (olive???). It was awful. The fully loaded baked potato appie wasn't my gig, but my friend really liked them. The shrimp dumplings were okay, but honestly Trader Joe's dumplings are far better, and the sauce they were served in was a giant sodium bath. We didn't have any alcoholic beverages (it was a work night)...however the list looked good.

    On the way to the porch, we saw the LPE and stopped there for lunch instead. We ordered two local burgers with the double patty. Substituted cheddar cheese and had the side Caesar salad instead of fries. That was a nice substitute at no extra charge. The patties were made with quality meat. Only disappointment was the patties were small and didn't fill out the bun. The room was loud but bearable. Had large screen TVs for sports viewing and a nice bar area.

    Loved the interior atmosphere which is bright and had nice decor and good TV coverage in the bar. Server was friendly and attentive. However, given the very high reviews, we had high expectations that fell short in the food department. The portions didn't feel like they matched the price as the salad I got wasn't very big compared to salads at other spots in the area. My fiancée got the local burger, and the patties had a notably smaller circumference than the giant bun which he said ruined it a bit as the eating experience and bun to meat ratio was off. We might come back to try the pizzas because they looked really good, but overall we weren't wowed.

I don't think Harwood Arms was prepared for how many people were going to show up- it seemed completely disorganized, chaotic, and just ridiculous. We were sitting down at one of the tables outside in the alley area and the walkway was clear- at first. After the game had actually started, I guess they just let everyone in and the entire walkway was PACKED with people to the point that our once clear view of the TV, was gone in an instant. As the night progressed, obviously a girl has to pee, so as I was walking into the actual restaurant/ pub to use the bathroom and I guess the "bouncer" stuck his arm between me and the door and dismissively said I couldn't go in. Excuse me? After telling him I literally have a table outside, he yanks at his collar and speaks into his little walkie talkie asking if there's a table of 4 outside under my name. Sorry, I didn't know I was watching the Mexico game at the freakin White House surrounded by Secret Agents. Give me a break. So when he magically confirms I have a table (because I do), he lifts up his arm and gives me the ALL CLEAR! It's actually funny looking back at it. But give me a break. When going back outside to sit at my table, the same bouncer/ Secret Agent/ FBI dude gives attitude to my boyfriend and myself for the commotion caused earlier. The actual police officer next to him told us it's ok and to just have a good time. The only nice thing someone said to us and he doesn't even work at Harwood Arms lol. To management, if you do not want people "off the street" to go in and out of your pub or inside to use your bathrooms, then I don't know- maybe come up with a wristband method so your paying customers can smoothly go in and out to use your bathrooms? Just a thought. OR just don't be unwelcoming to people that are actively spending money at your pub. Harwood Arms was NOT prepared at all for the high velocity of people coming in to watch the FIFA games. Quite frankly, it was a MESS. I did visit Bar W a few days after that and had a MUCH BETTER experience-- go there instead.
