Hala has a gift that simply can't be manufactured -- the ability to make every guest feel genuinely seen and welcomed from the moment they walk through the door. She knows her regulars. She reads the room. She consistently goes above and beyond in a way that never feels performative or transactional -- it just feels like care. The food would be delicious anywhere. But Hala turns a great restaurant into a place people actually want to come back to. She's the reason Cork & Pig isn't just where we eat -- it's where we gather as a family.

The bartender was very knowledgeable and walked me through their extensive beer selection. Many of the beers leaned Belgian, which is just not my style, so I cannot really rate those, but it was clear they know their beer. I ordered their take on a shrimp po boy. It was different and fine, but not something I would specifically seek out again. Overall, a decent spot with good service and a strong beer program, especially if Belgian beers are your thing.

The hostess spoke my language and escorted me right to my table. She made sure it was cleaned off and let our server know I was ready to eat. The best part about it all is it was a late-night reverse happy hour from 9 PM to close, only Thursday-Saturday. My server was very sweet and friendly. She took my drink and food order all at once. I like the ambiance this place brings, compared to all the locations I think this is my top. Me being traditional I ordered hot water ( the bulb is so posh), California roll, spinach artichoke dip, and the flatbread. Everything costs me around $40~

This…read morearea has become of gem of a location in DFW for dining, and Monaco brings a truly elevated and upscale experience to the area. This is my updated review. My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Monaco is one of the prettiest restaurants in all of DFW. Dark wood and dark blue seating invite you in. The bar is stunning, with back lighting highlighting their drinks. There's also an outdoor seating area, including a wind shield - perfect when the weather is nice. This is a great spot for a weekend date night if you want something outside of Dallas. 1 Star. Service - Everyone was very nice. We were never rushed, all dishes could be customized to order, and I never had to ask for a refill. Nothing but good people here. 1 Star. Food - Let me start by saying presentation matters, and the dishes at Monaco are great for your Instagram or Yelp feed. I started with the roasted oysters. I chose it because the description said the oysters are "topped with bone marrow butter". That, combined with the roasted breadcrumbs, added a nice crunchy and smooth texture to the delicious oysters. For my main, I went with the Salmon St. Harve. This beautiful dish had a perfectly prepared salmon. Soft and flaky, but with a crunch from the skin at the bottom. It was served on top of grilled asparagus and topped with a cream sauce that brought everything together. Delicious. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. It's not a secret that I love Water Street. This is an awesome area in the heart of DFW, and I'm so happy there is an upscale restaurant like Monaco that has amazing food. 1 Star.

They have a pretty good selection of beers and of liquors (I presume wine, too, but I didn't check). While there are "bourbon bars" with a wider bourbon selection or "gin bars" with a wider gin selection, they have an above average selection of each, and they don't charge absurd up charges for choosing the liquor you like. The bartender is very polite. There's ample seating at the bar, and you can also take your drink to some loungy-er chairs in the nearby part of the hotel lobby. All in all, a solid bar.

You walk in and the bar is to your right. It was about 6 and no one was at the bar. There was a group of guys discussing something over drinks in the lounge area but that was about it. The bartender came right up to my boyfriend and I. I told the bartender my boyfriend had never been to Texas so we tried out essentially every tap by sampling which was nice that he offered that up. After we tried each beer we decided on some options. The bartender went back to texting in the corner and we sat at the bar listening to the music playing in the open concept lobby/bar area We eventually took over the seating area that group was in because the couches looked more cozy than the bar. The happy hour advertised is not a thing anymore, they now have reverse happy hour from 9-10. The beers weren't too expensive as our tab was only $13 which I doable. The bartender disappeared from the bar for a fair amount of time which made me anxious because I used to be a bartender, I guess he trusted we wouldn't leave without paying. He didnt come check on us to see if we needed another beer but that was ok I guess. I went back up to the bar to cash out and that was that. This bar is good for a quick drink but I wouldn't probably go for a top notch bar experience.

It's a chain. There's something about a chain restaurant that's polished and well fabricated…read more Something about it feels like a lab diamond. It's sparkly, but not intimate. It just feels very manufactured. The menu is varied. If you've read my reviews before, you know that I'm a Texa-fornian, so there are a lot of places in Texas that don't suit my palate (or my waist line.) I was easily able to find a couple of things that I would have enjoyed. Based solely on the calorie count, I picked the salmon with cauliflower rice. It was a little oily, but it was good. I cleaned the plate. It's dark inside, like a steakhouse. Not for me, but if that's your thing, you would be happy. It's clean the food's fresh and if you're a drinker, there is a lot of beer. I'm not a drinker. Maybe you're asking why did you even go? Someone gave me a gift card and someone gave my daughter a gift card, so we had to use them.

They're known for massively tall "yard" servings of beer, though I didn't see anyone trying one on my lunchtime visit. They do have a good 4 pages of beers on the menu! The place has high ceilings with exposed pipes lending an industrial vibe. The menu helpfully marks vegetarian options as well as lower calorie choices. I was impressed to see power outlets along the purse hooks below the bar - if you wanted to bring a laptop and catch up on work emails, it'd be possible. Our waitress was business-like and a little unfriendly, and service was terribly slow. The food was good. Free refills on our drinks flowed freely. I tried a veggie burger which was a bit spicy and oaty. I wish I'd tried a salad! Still, I appreciated that they worked with me on reserving tables for a large group all with separate checks.

Three times is not always a charm…read more After having a great dinner experience during the first visit, we tried a mid-week happy hour. Even though it was nearly empty, the bartender at the time seemed very uninterested in working. Even the manager who was so friendly the first time, giving us a tour and inviting us back, seemed uninterested in the guests. Thinking it was "just an off night" we tried again. Service by the bartender was much more attentive this time, albeit slow--the kitchen's fault, not hers. While she seemed to not know much about the menu--all questions had the answer of "I'll have to ask the chef"--she was friendly. No more Gigante Bean soup? What?!? That was a main draw! Place was pretty dead. Even though we were not hotel guests and they were aware of that, we were also charged a 20% service charge "for room charges only" that was calculated against full prices, not what was paid for happy hour. Hopefully that went to the bartender since nothing more was added. What started out as a place I was recommending to locals after my first visit, now just feels like any other hotel restaurant / bar where they feel they have a captive audience and don't have to try as hard. Unfortunately, "three strikes you're out"--we will not be returning.
