We had a great experience here for dinner. We were just driving the area looking for a new place to try when we found it. A rare place on Henderson that is good and actually has parking available. So, we tried it. Walking in we were taken back by the open-spacious feel of the place. They have a lot of woods used throughout, which gave the place a nice earthy feel. The service was really good. While we had a person who introduced herself as our server, this place seems to work on a team concept. We had no less than 4 servers throughout the course of our visit. It worked fabulously. We ordered and shared the Fully Loaded Crispy Potatoes , for our appetizer. They were amazing and I would come back tomorrow for more! For our main course we had the Seared Chicken. Think Chicken Breast in a Siracha Butter Sauce atop a Corn & Potato Croquet. It was literally OMG! I can't wait to come back! read more

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. read more

Went to LPE last Saturday for brunch. Sat at the very open bar (it was raining so i get it) and the bartenders couldn't care any less. As soon as we sat down it's "what do you want". We ordered a mimosa tower which came luke warm and was served with water glasses? We thought this may be normal but then saw other guests had wine glasses. I understand a mimosa tower will get warm after a while but the drinks came out very warm just from the start. We weren't checked on after we got our food for about 45 minutes which definitely felt crazy when there was 5 people at the bar. Another thing that was crazy was the amount of time i saw servers waiting for drinks in the middle of the restaurant on their phone, even crazier was managers standing next to them lol. The food was fine. Very bad experience, wouldn't return. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

Great service and food. I do not recommend the valet service since it is a 3rd party. My truck was stolen and I know this is common for Dallas, TX. To many things seem coincidental with the theft of the vehicle that night. The manager has asked me to email her. I have emailed with no response. At any rate the food and service was great, and realize they can not control the the 3rd party valet service, but no other contact has been made to follow up. I hope to hear from the manager at some point. read more

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. read more

I was very impressed by the ambiance and dining experience at this new bar! I had passed by many times and decided to come in one day for lunch. I am vegetarian and there were many options for me. I ordered the couscous salad and was shocked by how good it was! Since it is a bar, I had low expectations for the food but this definitely exceeded it! This is a great place to hang out with friends, get a meal, or just grab a drink. I will definitely be coming back for Happy Hour! read more

Very disappointing experience. The actual location is very nice and clean. Good vibe. The food was underwhelming. I had their loaded potato's, shrimp and pork dumplings and their pork tacos and they were just okay. I had high expectation for the burger considering the price of it and it lack a lot of flavor. The bun overpowered the flavor of the meat. The waiter was not attentive despite it being empty in the afternoon. I have been wanting to come here since it opened but I personally don't think I will be making a return trip here. read more

PROS: staff was amazing, food was good, spacious and clean, prices were decent, many TVs, and most food came out fast CONS: the portions were small and my pizza took forever to come out when other meals came out fast OVERALL: I will absolutely come back to this restaurant, but I wouldn't go on an empty stomach and I'm not gonna get the pizza read more

This place is very popular, especially on a weekend evening! The wait time was long, but my friends and I were able to find seats at the bar. We ordered the Fully Loaded Crispy Potatoes (Parmesan horseradish aioli, bacon, jalapeños, shaved grana padano), which was flavorful. We arrived late enough for their happy night special, so we also shared two pizzas for $25: the Mortazza (Bechamel sauce, smoked mozzarella, fennel sausage, mortadella, pistachios, drizzled with honey and olive oil) and the Carnivore (Tomato sauce, spianata salami, bacon, fennel sausage and mozzarella). I tried the Pink Spritz (Absolut raspberri vodka, watermelon, guava, lime, soda, rosé, sparkling wine and cucumber), but it was pretty diluted and didn't taste like much. Service took a while since there were so many people, but they were friendly. read more

Decided to try this place for brunch. Restaurant is huge with a lot of screens so it a perfect spot to watch your favorite team play and have good food and cocktails inside or on the patio. I ordered fully loaded crispy potato, fried chicken ramen and pepperoni supremo. Everything was good except the chicken. It barely had any meat, covering was hard and meat was over fried which made it really chewy but the miso soup, noodles and charred corn combination was really good so giving that dish 2.5/5. Pizza and loaded potatoes were 5/5 and would highly recommend ordering. I did not order any drinks but my friends did and they really liked them all. Service was good as well. read more

The food here is excellent! We haven't had anything we didn't like. Great clean, open space and atmosphere. Large screens for sports watching. If this place isn't packed from open to close, I have a theory. Their prices are about 15% higher than comparable restaurants. Also, their wine pours are poor IMO. I drink Pinot Grigio and $13 per glass for anything other than Santa Margherita is just silly, especially for a skimpy pour. Overall, though a good spot!! read more

Pretty nice patio that does have some heaters (although we could not feel the heater at all from where we were sitting). Both the drinks and the food were good. Their drink menu is pretty extensive which is super nice. Valet is $7 which you kinda have to do unless you are lucky enough to find street parking. read more

Came by on a Saturday right before noon without a reservation. Took about 10 min or so to get seated, not bad. Atmosphere and vibe is great. We sat on patio and weather was great. I would say the food is nothing special. I would come back for drinks and because the atmosphere is fun. If I was only looking for something tasty, I think I would go elsewhere. Maybe I'll try a pizza or burger next time. Service was great at first but became super slow at the end. To be fair, the server was pretty busy. Maybe they get more tables than they can handle. Trying to get the check or close out took about 15 minutes. Fish tacos- not bad but not the best I've had. Fish is on the smaller side, it's also not crunchy compared to other places. If I was just seeking out fish tacos then I would go elsewhere. Other than that, if I ended up here then I wouldn't mind ordering it again. Poke bowl- not that great. Probably should order their other menu items instead. read more

Your new favorite spot! I got a chance to preview Local Public Eatery before it opens on September 26, and trust me when I say, you'll love it! Starting from the moment you walk in, it feels like a brewery with eclectic decor, multiple TVs, and bar in the center. The staff is very welcoming and friendly with everything from greeting to recommendations and everything in between! For drinks, I tried the Spicy Guava Marg, Aperol Crush, and peaches and Beam slush. The spicy Guava marg was well balanced and tasted fresh as opposed to that sweet & sour flavor that most margs have. The aperol crush was good; however, I will say that it is sweeter than a traditional aperol spritz so if you prefer a more earthy/floral flavor it may not be the one for you. Lastly, the peaches and Beam slush was so good that I could've drank it straight from the blender as the peach flavor was tastefully balanced with the richness of the Jim Beam. For food, we tried the spicy garlic edamame, truffle burger with fries, and fish tacos with house salad. The spicy garlic edamame only had a slight bit of heat but was well complimented with the sweet notes in the sauce. The fish tacos had flavorful and well battered fish and crunchy slaw. My only note would be that a vinaigrette or more sauce would've taken it to the next level, but the house side salad was PERFECT! The dressing is similar to a sweet poppyseed vinaigrette and is similar to something you would get at a nice sandwich shop with lots of vegetables! Now for the star of the show: the truffle burger! I was catching up with a friend while there and up until the point of having the burger, you could not get us to stop gabbing back and forth, but that burger had us at a loss for words. It was juicy, flavorful, slightly Smokey, and earthy all between 2 fluffy fresh buns! This is truly a staple restaurant that the Henderson neighborhood needed and I can't wait to watch them grow! read more

A frequent in my book. I've eaten here 3 separate occasions, once when the restaurant recently opened and the wait was crazy. Fortunately the hype has gone down some so it's not super crazy. Hidden gem when it comes to drinks as they do regular happy hour and late night happy hour past 9. And discounts when the local teams (Mavs, Cowboys and Stars) are playing. Featuring group drinks such as carafes and beer towers. Really good place to start and get the night going and hop the the other bars down the road. As for the food, the crispy potato appetizer is a must! As well as the fish taco. It was juicy and flavorful. Decided to get the poke bowl and for an American restaurant it was actually pretty good! read more

So far I have come here for brunch and for happy hour! They have a killer happy hour. The menu is really big so it can be a little overwhelming, but I'm convinced you can't go wrong with any of it. My only bone to pick with them is that they don't offer regular ranch and they don't have ice water. The patio is great and everyone who works there is really nice. Gotta say I really hate they only use valet on Sundays when they have a huge parking lot. And $10?? That's a bit much for a casual patio restaurant. Take some advice from pretty much any other restaurant in Dallas and do complimentary valet. read more
