Omnivore Pizza
Lucy M.

Stopped by on Sunday after church with a group of friends to grab some food and catch the Cowboys game. Pretty standard sports bar style establishment with big screens and plenty of room. My husband enjoyed the buffalo cauliflower he ordered and I tried some of my friends' omnivore pizza - good amount of toppings and tasty crust edges, though I did wish the bottom was more crispy and less floppy. Solid place to catch a sports game!

Stacked pint glasses at Northside Drafthouse -- fun college bar vibes with pool tables and plenty of TVs.

Northside Drafthouse has that classic college hangout feel--lots of space, TVs everywhere, and a fun energy. The beer selection is solid, and I like how they keep things interesting with trivia nights and rotating options. Definitely a spot where you'll find a younger crowd, so if you're into that college vibe, this place nails it. Great spot to grab a drink, play some games, and just hang out.

Nashville Fried Chicken Pizza

Who would've thought that a college bar would have the best pizza? I remember going to UTD when the drafthouse first opened and living right above it when the pandemic hit. This place was so clutch and their pizzas are amazing. Normally I get the Mac daddy pizza but this time around I ordered the Nashville Fried Chicken Pizza. This tastes just as good as I remember in college and would GLADLY drive back up to campus just to have it again.

I came back! So many beers to choose from there is no way to knock them all out in one day so I had to come back. Checked a few more off my list. Nice little college bar to TAP into the scene.

I have never eaten here but would consider it. Service is pretty good when it comes to ordering drinks. Ambiance is great. Do expect to see some college kids and sometimes little kids with their family, but at night would be a more different crowd. They also have board games and pool tables which is awesome! Lots of beer selection!

Darts
Bill U.

It was pretty crowded with a good mix of UTD students and us neighborhood locals. The family and I stopped in for a quick bite, beers a plenty, and bragging rights for the year for the darts winner. I went with the patty melt and it was okay, I went with Goose Island on tap and a game of darts. Great family fun. See you next year.

Surprisingly sophisticated drafthouse located close to a college. I'm used to college dive bars and college basic bars. Honestly, this was neither. Tons of taps - with grown-up beers. Not unmentionable barely beer beers favored by the broke college crowd. Lots of food choices, none of which was greasy or "bar food" like. Sure, you'll find Irish car bombs and $2 shot nights. It *is* a college bar. But it's also much much more. I'd go back for sure.

The service was not great. Bartender wasn't helpful and we seemed like more of a burden when just trying to order a beer.

Henry checked on us often, was super patient, and just genuinely kind. Bernie kept our water full and was always nearby making sure we were good without hovering. They made the whole night feel easy and fun. The food was just as good. We started with the mushroom fondue, creamy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. The bread was perfect, crispy and thin but still sturdy enough to scoop everything up without falling apart. We also split one of the toast boards and loved it. Great mix of flavors and just a really fun thing to share. They're also known for some really good favorites like the burrata toast, steak frites, truffle fries, and their charcuterie boards. Their brunch gets a lot of hype too, especially the French toast and eggs Benedict. And their seasonal cocktails are always a hit, really creative and well balanced. Bathrooms were clean, always a plus. Only tiny note, I wish there were more purse or coat hooks, every place needs those. Overall, we had such a great time. The service really stood out and the food totally delivered. Definitely one of those spots you leave already planning your next visit.

The board is perfect for sharing with friends or a group of friends over a glass of wine, whether indoors or on the patio. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. They have some great happy hour deals: $6 wine glasses and pitchers of beer every day until 5pm, plus bruschetta boards and wine bottles for $25 after 8pm on Mondays & Tuesdays.

Rather than repeat what everyone's already said about their amazing food, top-notch service, and…read moreunique Texas vibe .. I'll share the extra magic that is missing in these reviews. My friends took me here for my 60th birthday!! Outside of the perfect steaks and stellar service (a great big thank you to Brad our amazing waiter), the music stole the show!! They have this insanely talented musician who performs Friday and Saturday nights starting at 6:30 PM .. he literally has his stage on a landing pad halfway up the staircase with his own little music kingdom. One guy. Several instruments. Electric guitar and saxophone were played effortlessly. You can make requests, which adds to the fun! For example, "Sweet Caroline" was a song that everyone sang along throughout the restaurant lol. Then came something I didn't expect. This musician has made it his personal mission to play our National Anthem on Fridays and Saturdays 7pm sharp. Everyone naturally stood -up, the whole room joined in, hand over their hearts, so much patriotic passion and energy. It was truly beautiful to see people come together in that moment. And just when I thought the night couldn't get better, out came a birthday dessert .. a warm homemade cookie with ice cream and a real sparkler. It was a show stopper!! I haven't seen a sparkler since I was ten lol. Apparently, birthdays are a big deal here, because it felt like every table around us had their own sparkler birthday/ anniversary moment. It was hilarious ... and I loved it! If you're looking for a memorable experience or just a relaxing delicious meal, nothing compares to Texas y'all. TIP: they have valet parking! TIP: they take reservations!

For entrees I ordered their braised short rib. I am a short rib snob, so believe me when I tell you that this was the best short rib I ever had. For dessert, I had the Tres Leches, which was amazing! The service was also on point, and the interior decorations were quite beautiful. An amazing restaurant that deserves more than only five stars! I can't recommend it highly enough!!!

Came in here in a late Tuesday evening. Dining room had a lovely decor (if you're not facing the…read morebig TV playing the menu slideshow on repeat) and the wait staff is very very nice. My wife and I decided to only share some starters since we wanted to try a little bit of everything. The fried cheese taquenos were very nice and kind of had a sweet flavor we really enjoyed. The chicken tinga empanadas had smoky and bold flavor to them the green sauce on the side made them taste even better. The quesobirria tacos were good but were not great. Have had better and would probably opt to try something else next time. The ceviche caribeno was top tier. One of the best ceviches I've had that I can remember. It's a little pricey but at least it was worth it. Would love to come back and try some entrees.

My family and I decided to try Guitars and Growlers. We parked in the parking lot, walked in, and…read morechecked out the space. It's a cool restaurant that has a lot of seating, and cool decor with Guitars displayed on the wall and a small stage for performers. We walked up to where you order. It was counter service and the guy that took our order was laid back. We paid, he gave us a number and then we chose a place to sit and waited for our food. We ordered several items to share. We started off with a charcuterie board that had meats, cheeses, nuts, fruit, and toasted bread. It was really good. The bread was able to hold the ingredients and was nice and crispy but not overly crispy. The meats were good and the different cheeses were flavorful with different textures. The fruit was fresh and the nuts were a nice crunchy addition. Very yummy start. We also shared the Tejas Nachos with Brisket. The Nachos come with tortilla chips covered in cheese, queso, jalapenos, tomatoes, and crema. They were okay. The Brisket was plentiful. There was a lot of cheese and queso spread out all over the nachos. It was a little too much. The chips got soggier the closer you got to the bottom of the pile. Our last shared item was the ZZ Top BBQ Flatbread. It was okay. It came with an overabundance of cheese. It also came with jalapenos, BBQ sauce, and we ordered it with Chicken. It was okay. The cheese was gooey but overwhelming. The jalapenos added a spicy flavor and the BBQ sauce was tasty. Overall the restaurant has a cool atmosphere with good service. The counter service, ordering and paying process was quick and easy. Everytime someone brought our food to us they were friendly. The food was okay and literally very cheesy.

Food: kind of expected an actual kitchen. Still good, just bar food…read more Taps are great - had some great local gems Service was great, friendly staff Vibe on point.
