    a plate of food on a table
    JC R.

    Nice quality cafe inside NM so glad it's opened back up! I always love having a light fare & drinks while shopping at NM- been awhile in- person here! Stars for freshness and presentation of quality spring mix and very good tasting soup was standout! Sandwich was excellent and good quality! I missed coming here so glad they are once again thriving! I recommend getting a reservation but walk in allowed if tables are available. Bar area also has high chairs if you are solo or as option from a table seating! Also very nice that they have Moet & Chandon in split option, which I love! Tea was excellent my friend said so. Rachel the reservation associate was friendly as was the cafe manager who checked in on us so that was a plus! Server was adequate but could have provided a friendlier approach and this is where I deduct a point slightly-the manager checking in and hospitality Rachel exuded were bonuses! I'm very pleased overall of my NM outing with a friend- been awhile- so happy that many people are shopping, even long lines at Gucci, LV, Chanel and all the other high end stores- backed up crave I supposed...

    OH MY GOODNESS! Why have I subjected myself to other places that are absolutely subpar to this adorable cafe in NM? Ok, I am being a little dramatic here but the cafe was phenomenal; the food was delicious and the service was better! We popped (no reservation) in on a Thursday at 11am, Satomi was our server and the food and service was impeccable! The bread with strawberry butter, was incredible! I ordered the finger sandwiches and they were so good, the cucumber salad was delicious and my husband order the salmon tacos. He said the tacos were very good! I love that the menu is small, the cafe is boutique and I love the attentive level of service that you get here, its not overwhelming or "hovery", its the right amount! I do recommend having a reservation because it was packed as we were leaving.

    Blackened Salmon Tacos

    I enjoyed lunch at this cafe located inside Neiman Marcus. I ordered the blacked salmon tacos which were served with jalapeños and slaw.... Omg so good. I also had an iced tea. The cafe is located on the lower level and it's small with about 8-10 tables. They also have a bar area where you may order espresso or cocktails. Super cute.... Would visit again

    Chicken salad
    Raquel R.

    If you are exhausted from shopping and need a food break, please visit this cafe! It is small but wonderful. They give you monkey bread with strawberry butter to start, they have a delicious menu, and offer coffee, tea and alcoholic drinks as well! The food is SO good and the service is better! The chicken salad is always a hot and they have a very flavorful tortilla soup. Highly recommend

    Bread and Butter

    I had lunch at NM Cafe with my daughter. After being seated, each of us received a bread and strawberry butter. Since I wasn't super hungry, I got a bowl of Lobster Bisque, it tasted better than the one at Seasons 52.

    Salmon tacos

    Stopped by Neiman Marcus Cafe for a quick bite. Had the salmon tacos and a cafe latte. The place was clean, staff was nice, service okay, but the place has a weird vibe as it looks like it is a small cafe shoved into a side room.

    Waiter said they closed at 3pm, even though the sign still located at the entrance said they open til 4pm.

    Do not recommend this place. We made reservations online using open table for 3:45PM. When we entered the restaurant at 3:45PM, we passed a sign that had the hours (closes daily at 4PM). No one greeted us. When I walked up to a waiter, she said we're closed. I explained we made reservations online and the sign (see picture) at the entrance says they're open til 4PM. She again rudely said we closed at 3PM so of course we left. I should've trusted the online reviews which said this place sucks.

    American Express or cash (closest ATM is the Bank of America one outside the Maggiano's on the second floor). Tucked inside the Neiman Marcus on the lower level, this department store cafe was way more upscale than I expected. In fact, I was pretty much slumming it in my flag football outfit, so I tucked myself into the corner of the bar. Their barstools are actually tall director chairs which are awkward to seat yourself with. Turkey breast sandwich was pretty basic, though the tomato slice was bordering on mushy. Didn't quite catch the mayo flavoring, but the horseradish mustard was a plus. Seasonal fruit didn't taste like it was out of a can, but it was diced awkwardly small for their fork size. I'd asked for the ham & beans soup of the day, but the gentleman who took my order was hard of hearing and I was let down by the grainy tortilla soup. This stuff is not worth the premium when you can get better at chain sandwich franchises for half the price. I was disappointed to find out that they didn't offer popovers at this location... because the ovens in their kitchen were too small? I raised an eyebrow at the excuse but still enjoyed my monkeybread with strawberry butter, and accepted the offer of a second helping. Unfortunately, that was the highlight of my lunch. Stereotypical Neiman Marcus clientele populate this cafe on the weekends; I was definitely the youngest customer there by a decade or two. Seriously, Neiman Marcus doesn't attract family crowds, so I'm sure the kiddie menu is rarely tested. Food served quickly and pleasant service but I won't be back.

    A beautiful table setting

    If you are shopping at Neiman Marcus at The Galleria, you expect nothing but the best quality. This is also true of their lovely cafe, beautifully decorated, phenomenal food, and great service. I was treated to this exceptional lunch with GF Hannah Hong. We were greeted by our waitress and viewed their special menu, as well as the main menu. I loved the elegantly set table and the soft clover rolls with strawberry butter. We ordered the tomato and vegetable soup that was topped with goat cheese. Lots of tomato flavor and large chunks of well cooked vegetables. The broth was light and flavorful. Next, we ordered the crab and shrimp salad. There was a large portion of crab, a few shrimp, cucumbers, avocado, eggs, tomato, lettuce, and a creamy rich remoulade dressing. It was refreshing and large. The seafood was fresh and delightful. Hannah had the key lime pie and I ate the oven warm chocolate chip cookies. They were both decadent and delicious. The service was superb. Thank you Hannah. It was an afternoon to remember.

    I came here with my aunt,mother and grandma for lunch since my aunt was raving about how amazing lunch is here. The wait was a bit long since the cafe is kind of small and stuffy but it helps that they give you a buzzer so that you can look around a bit while you wait. The Pull a part rolls that they give for free are really good with the strawberry whipped butter it actually had chunks of fruit in it. I ordered the Moroccan Grilled Chicken Wrap it wasn't bad pretty filling for a wrap. The tomatillo salad dressing for the side salad was a bit on the salty side. Overall:decent experience staff was pretty attentive; a bit pricey but your at neiman marcus lol. I certainly would come back if i wanted spluge a bit for lunch or to get more of those pull a part rolls with the strawberry whipped butter.

    This was an incredibly disappointing experience…read more We ordered and paid for a custom cake for our son's first birthday party, intended to be the centerpiece of a safari-themed celebration. The order was confirmed by email three days before the event, yet the cake was not available at the time of the party. We received no advance notice, no explanation, and no phone call from the bakery. Instead of enjoying a once-in-a-lifetime milestone, we spent much of the party dealing with stress and confusion. The missing cake was obvious to guests and took away from the entire event. An Uber driver eventually arrived after the party had already ended, with a dummy cake and a sheet cake, and appeared to have very little information about the order. That moment summed up the experience -- disorganized and poorly handled. What made this even more frustrating was the lack of follow-up. Despite repeated attempts to get clarity, no one from management reached out to apologize, explain what happened, or issue some sort of refund. In our opinion, this reflects extremely poor communication and professionalism, especially for a custom, time-sensitive order tied to an important family event. A first birthday cannot be redone. After more than 15 years as loyal customers, this experience was deeply disappointing and the breaking point.

If you're hesitant about it being gamey, don't be! It had a perfect balance of sweetness from the caramelized onions and a distinct, smoky flavor from being torched. For the main, I had the Pan Seared Wild Petrale Sole, which was beautifully cooked and fresh. My friend loved the chicken, and we ended the night sharing a delicious dessert. Bonus: Parking was a breeze--we found a spot on the street right in front of the restaurant. We will definitely be back!

    I'll admit, this review is a little biased as my husband and I were frequent diners at Clarity when…read moreit was owned by Chef Jon Krinn as that is where we first encountered Chef Nick and Sam and have been following/supporting them ever since the Clarity transition. We definitely went to the Dabney quite a bit when Sam was working there. But, as for Evelyn Rose - we couldn't be more thrilled. When the Bazins announced that they were selling their restaurant, I honesty couldn't think of better new owners, and they have just nailed it. Food: The food is excellent. Always well-seasoned with lots of choices for all different appetites and preferences. A few specific touches that I personally love - half portions of pasta, options on an a la carte menu as well as a tasting menu (every evening!) and the ability to often order courses a la carte off the tasting menu. Flexibility is the name of their game, and it is truly appreciated. Chef Nick really has a way with fish, and that's frequently what I order there, but honestly, I think only one time did I have a dish that I felt was sub-par (I had a meat dish that was slightly overcooked and a tad dry) but that's a few and far between occurrence. Last night I had the rockfish dish which was perfectly crisped, and the sauce and beans that accompanied it were just perfect. My husband had the gnocchi which was light and fluffy. Service: Sam, the co-owner and Sommelier, is really just amazing at hospitality. He is friendly, warm, and always looking to ensure you are having a great experience. He's put together a small, but well-curated wine list - nothing overly expensive, and wines that you'd 'expect' to see as well as hidden gems. He's always willing to offer advice on wine pairings - not just for the tasting menu but the a la carte menu, which is always appreciated by my husband and I. Aside from Sam, generally, the service is attentive most times we have dined there - most of the time, if the service is lagging a bit, it's usually because they are packed! Vibe: Evelyn Rose has a cozy, warm vibe. Lots of exposed wood and blue and gold tones throughout the restaurant. Do note that it can get loud, especially on weekends when they are packed. Other: We are very blessed to have such an excellent restaurant down the street. Don't take my word for it - we were at Albi just a few nights ago and when we mentioned to the bartender we live in Vienna, they said "oh, have you been to Evelyn Rose?" (seriously!) Coming from a bartender at a one-star Michelin restaurant...I'd say that's quite the compliment. Looking forward to many more dinners at Evelyn Rose!
