    Aperol spritz

    I love this place! The staff are always friendly and able to make some harder or lesser known drinks. I took my bartender brother here and he loved it, he wants to come back every time he visits. It gets busy so it can be hard to find a place to sit, but not impossible. When I got engaged this was our after party spot and the staff brought us shots to celebrate! Love coming here and would recommend. The only thing is that there is this smell, I don't know if it's cleaning products, but it seems like it's stronger every time I go. I hope that goes away because I want to continue going. Great happy hour!

    I really enjoyed the patio area and the location of uptown it's in. It was really crowded in the inside, so I'm not sure of the vibe, but I would recommend catching up with a friend on the patio. We both got Frida cocktails!

    Happy hour when it rains

    I was bar hopping and came across this dark and sexy speakeasy. I've never heard of a bar having a happy hour when it rains - points for creativity! I didn't see a drink on the menu I liked so the bartender did me a solid and custom made a drink I wanted - sweet and spicy with foam on top. And I loved it.

    Adorable little cocktail bar. The drinks we had were delicious and the service was attentive without being overbearing. It did get a little loud in here when it was fuller, so be warned if you are extra sensitive to that like I am. I much preferred the bar top to the seats around the edges, as the seats felt really sunken-in and far back! Overall, loved it and would return.

    Stopped by on a Monday night and the bar was packed, with lots of people standing, which speaks to the vibe. Despite the crowd, the waitress circulated regularly and drinks came out quickly. There's a quaint patio area, comfortable seating, and the bathroom was clean. Great spot with a lively atmosphere, even on a weekday.

    Consistently amazing drinks and service! I've been coming here for a few years now and the experience each time has been great. The interior is well decorated and has sort of a dark/speakeasy vibe. The drinks here are strong and delicious! From the happy hour menu I highly recommend the peach smash, old fashioned, and the garden gimlet, though everything I've had here is very good.

    The inside has a cool vibe & I love the decor! But it is super tiny and difficult to get a seat on busy nights. The outdoor patio is also small. Be prepared to stand around. They have a huge drink menu with something for everyone's taste. There are several drinks that come with a show, but you need to ask the bartender which ones they are because it's not indicated on the menu. The drinks are expensive, but delicious. We came during the week when they have drink specials and it was super packed. But remember, drink specials also bring in the lower class crowd, and it was just not my scene. I even had one girl be extremely rude when I was about to offer her a seat. She had an entitled attitude, saying since my friend wasn't sitting there. she's going to sit there. And I was in the middle of telling her she can have the seat. We left after that because I don't do toxic, drama, or negativity. I recommend coming early or just for a quick drink, but especially on a night when the drinks are not on sale so you don't deal with riffraff.

    Came here on a Friday night with my girlfriend to have a quick few drinks before a concert. It's a lot smaller than I thought it was going to be inside, but the space is very well decorated. The speciality drinks were delicious albeit a little pricey, and the service from the bartenders was fantastic. There's not a lot of room for socializing and small chance of finding open seating if you are coming with a larger group, so that would be my only reluctance towards coming here, if I was grabbing a drink with 4 or more people. But I would definitely come back here with a small group! Great vibes, wonderful service, and tasty cocktails.

    This place is such a gem I literally visited this bar 3 times within a 24 hour period just because the service and energy from the bartenders are unmatched literally especially Jorge and Lauren they were super knowledgeable and welcoming to me and my friend this will e officially be my go to spot in Dallas Texas for sure

    Really vibey cocktail bar! Went for happy hour on Monday and the drinks and prices were to die for. It's hard to come by a $6-$7 drink nowadays so this is truly a gem. We tried the gimlet, bees knees, Moscow mule, and a mai tai all of which were delicious. Seating is limited inside and there was a rather large party that made it kind of noisy but we were still able to have a great time. Outdoor seating is also available but be wary of Texas summers! Service was fantastic - highly recommend!

    Went to Parliament after a long shift down the street. The atmosphere and ambiance were absolutely immaculate. Loved the aesthetic! The bartenders and Ya-Ya were very kind. The drinks were very good and pretty as well! Nice late night bar to chill and vibe at.

    omg, what a gem!! first and foremost, HAPPY HOUR UNTIL 8, with classic drinks from $6-7. my peach smash was delicious and both were fairly strong. there is a lovely covered patio which makes this place an all-weather retreat (though the fans could be stronger) and the inside is moody and intimate. waitress was cordial and the drinks came out promptly. crowd was diverse and generally young and cute. i like that they have a dress code and NO SCREENS, really elevated the energy of the place! greatttt date or girls night spot. and most importantly, one of the latest happy hours in the city!!

The cocktail menu seems like it's updated every season or so, the bartenders/creators' names featured on the cover. Very cool. Will definitely be back.

A must try! A little sweet and less bitter. Ruel, the fabulous mixologist, does drinks right! My drink tasted like a NOT overly sweet cocktail, fruity and slightly bubbly. My kind of superb cocktail! The munchies they offer you are toasted Texas Pecans, and Corn Nuts! Delicious to the core! Thanks to our bartender, Ruel! I assume EVERYTHING on their cocktail Bible is a hit, just mine was. Pricey, yes. I had 2, and they were worth it! This effortlessly chic bar, located inside the Mansion on Turtle Creek Hotel, is a real hit with guests, tourists, and locals! Excellent service!

The hotel property is like four legs under the table - a great location, a great hotel experience, a great restaurant experience, and a entertainment experience (The Mansion Bar). At least one leg has been kicked out, one is suffering. The Mansion Bar used to have a great recipe for success - proven by how busy and regular the customers were and loyal (or was), and the top tier talent that was routine for 10+ years. Me and my friends have a relationship with the long time staff as customers as well as the excellent music talent. The cause? Not precisely sure but I think it's new ownership, at the very least a new Food & Bev manager. I also know the staff is very upset about these changes and the relationships with the repeat music talent is now a mess. I wouldn't be surprise if the staff start leaving. I'm hoping whomever is making these decisions can revert back to what was working. Dallas has a lot of great venues that will fill this void.
