    Pearl Crab roll
    Aj L.

    Great chill and intimate setting with outstanding service. From hand wipes when you arrive to boxes to place the menu under the table for extra space, they really thought of everything. For appetizers we got the tuna crispy rice and edamame hummus both of which were flavorful and unique. Then we had our entrees of 4 different rolls that were each absolutely delicious and some of the best rolls if had not only in Dallas, but ever. I honestly cannot think of anything I wanted done differently. Next time I would like to try more of the specials, nigiri's, and sashimi as opposed to the sushi rolls!!

    We were pretty lucky to get same day reservations here! Eric R. suggested I pick something on my bookmark list since we had the night to ourselves. I looked on Resy and my bookmarks, and found Pearl so I made reservations for 7:45 PM. We arrived a few minutes early and parked in the free garage (validation requires scanning the QR code at the host stand). I had requested sushi bar, which was full, so the host offered a table but we were willing to wait for the bar. The restaurant is small so tables are fairly close together, and the patio was also very full. The doors were open as servers were going in and out of the restaurant onto the patio, and it was definitely a bit chilly that night. The sushi bar was farther from the door. It was not long before we were seated. Our server was very friendly and introduced us to Chef James who were sat in front of at the sushi bar. I ordered a yuzu lemonade and Eric R. got hot barley green tea. There were numerous specials available so we ordered a mix of food from the main menu and specials. First, Chef James gave us an amuse bouche of fluke in a yuzu sauce with olive oil. We had the crispy rice spicy tuna appetizer. It is with this I noticed that the sushi rice is seasoned uniquely and has a lot of flavor and color to it. I ordered the spicy yuzu sugar snap peas from the specials menu which came out next. I really liked this because unlike edamame, the entire pod can be eaten! The chawanmushi came out next. It is hard for me to find this one menus so I always order it first because it takes time to steam. It was very savory, warm, and delicious. Both Eric R. and I got the blue fin tuna tasting, with one piece each of akami, chutoro, and o-toro. We also ordeed the pearl sashimi roll which was really tasty. Nigiri: Hiramasa (kingfish) Kintokidai (big redeye or red fin sea bream) King salmon Kinmedai (golden eye snapper) Gindara (seared black cod) Japanese uni Eric R. had a negitoro handroll, then we both enjoyed a negihama handroll. Our last savory bite was a gift from Chef James of seared sake toro (salmon belly). Eric R. finished with mango mochi. Overall, we had a very nice meal here with great service. The quality of the fish was great, and the menu had many options. If it was not so chilly in there, Eric R. may not have asked for 100 tea refills, but the staff was very nice about it. Itadakimasu!

    Pearl was good. Funny enough it wasn't the fish that I remember, it was this wagyu beef roll We liked it so much we ordered it twice. This was along side our omakase meal. The sushi was good too don't get me wrong. We were also given their version of "fish & chips" that I thought was tasty. DEFINITELY better than the REAL thing from the UK The layout of the restaurant was very chique and good service.

    WHAT I ORDERED: Creme Brulee Martini, Yuzu Spritz Mocktail, Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice, Oyster Shooters, King Salmon Truffle Ponzu, Salmon Chili Garlic, Japanese Fish & Chips, Otoro Sashimi, Chutoro Sashimi, Variety of Nigiris, Soft Shell Crab Roll PARKING: Street or validated parking in the garage. With the reservation, they sent a text with parking instructions and how to validate. Staff also helped if needed. INSIDE: Cozier/more intimate atmosphere on the inside with covered patio seating available outside. Not only was our server attentive but the entire staff was. They really work together from serving food, and being knowledgable about what they're putting on your table, to keeping water topped off and everything clean. THE FOODS/DRINKS: Everything was amazing! Stand out dishes would be the King Salmon Truffle Ponzu, Chutoro Sashimi, and the Soft Shell Crab Roll. Each dish was fresh and flavorful. There's a lot of variety on the menu that the next time I come, I would have a hard time debating between ordering these same dishes or trying something new. The Creme Brulee Martini is a good spinoff of the espresso martini with its creaminess and was just sweet enough. The Yuzu Spritz Mocktail was a refreshing citrusy drink.

    Pearl Sushi is a cool modern sushi restaurant in Uptown Dallas that is helmed by chef Shine Tamaoki. His creative dishes result in a fantastic dining experience that places it next to the many fine restaurants in Dallas. My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Pearl is in the heart of Uptown Dallas. The backlight sign is cool and mysterious, and the restaurant is small but inviting. But Pearl's most amazing attribute is hung on the ceiling. As you walk inside, take a glance above. You'll see hundreds of origami swans. They are all connected to form a larger swan which is a microcosm of my experience (the sum experience is greater than its parts). 1 Star. Service - Our staff was excellent. They were well versed on the menu, the location each fish was flown in from, and made sure our plates were cleaned between each meal. They were attentive and made sure we had a great experience. 1 Star. Food - We started with the Spicy Edamame. The spicy (and slightly sweet) edamame was a great, sticky start to our meal. My favorite dish was the Yellowtail Serrano. The Yellowtail sits a light sauce, and the serrano pepper adds a little heat to balance the acidic sauce and neutral Hamachi. Also high on my list was the Snow Crab Roll. This roll had snow crab, avocado, cucumber, and was stacked like a pyramid. And here's where Pearl stands out, each dish is like small works of art. They were beautiful. You can tell the sushi chefs put lots of effort into your meal. Everything is delicious. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. Pearl Sushi has an expansive menu, and you can always ask of omakase. There are many great sushi restaurants in Dallas. Let's add Pearl Sushi to this list. I can't wait to come back. 1 Star.

    The sushi here was pretty good, and I loved the tuna flight. The interior was a bit smaller than expected and had lots of gnats flying around. I'm assuming it's because of the weather, but they were pretty annoying while I was eating. I'll probably order to go next time instead of dining in or go when the weather gets colder.

    Sakura Sour
    Melody V.

    We went for the happy hour and really liked the drink and sushi selection! I got the Sakura sour which I thought was the best drink, I also tried the lychee martini which was good but very standard. My favourite rolls were torched salmon, snow crab and scallop . The presentation for each of the rolls were on point! The restaurant has a great design and atmosphere. The location is in a pretty busy area, but parking is not hard to find. I'll definitely be back for another happy hour.

    First off, the service here is above and beyond from the moment you walk in. The staff is so friendly, and the little touches make such a difference -- they brought me a warm towel to clean my hands and even a basket for my purse so it didn't have to go on the floor or hang off my chair. Love that. The cocktails were fresh, balanced, and not overly sweet. I tried the Japanese Margarita and the White Pearl -- both were delicious. The spicy tuna appetizer might honestly be one of the best I've ever had. The sushi rolls were a great portion size and you can really taste the quality and freshness. Everything was just so good.

    Came in for a quick bite during the holidays. The vibe here is super inviting. All the chefs had the festive Christmas hats which was so fun! Our chef was awesome. We went with a half omakase and every bite was so yum! Awesome place. You can't order wrong. Will come back fully hungry next time!

    Mochi chocolate cake and butterscotch crepe cake. Both were outstanding

    The food, drinks, and ambiance were all wonderful! All of the rolls we tried were great, and we happened to go during happy hour so they were 50% off. The happy hour value for rolls and drinks is great, and we will definitely be back! Highly recommend the torched salmon roll and the butterscotch crepe cake.

    Tsukemono - nice appetizer! (May, 2024)

    Sleek casual. Server on training. Lovely cuts of sashimi. Dainty bites of refined sushi. Most impressive this Saturday night were Pearl's fluffy and crisp "Japanese Fish & Chips" and decadent "Black Sesame Cheesecake"! CHEERS!

    Delicious sushi food! The ambience was very classy, but also very comfortable. The staff were very responsive, and make sure to refill water as quickly along with cleaning up the tables. All the sushi was really tasty, but my favorite was the torched Salmon roll. There is parking right beside it. A trick is that you pay for parking on the QR code, but they have a validation code at the restaurant so that it gives you back the funds. Tyler was the staff, and he was very patient and friendly and helpful regarding this.

We came in near closing time, but Emilia provided us great service and stayed attentive even though they were clearly packed. We were seated at a table near the door, and unfortunately it had a vomit smell. Whatever it was, my friend could not stand it and had to get up and step away from the table. We first thought the culprit was the paper drink coasters, but then the staff removed the door mat near us later on, so maybe someone puked on it and the smell lingered, even after it was cleaned up. Clear Mizu ($16): This has Sakura vermouth and bitters, so we ordered it. It tasted like straight up gin and was not good. It was actually one of the rare times my husband could not finish his drink. Kyoto Sunset ($15): This one wasn't bad and tasted like honeydew. The ingredients include honeydew Calpico, so that makes sense. Johnny Walker Black ($16): This was our friend's drink, which I think was just coke and Johnny Walker. Nothing special about the taste either. Given the smell and so-so/terrible cocktails, we will not be coming back or taking our friends here.

During my second visit, I tried the Bitter Lemon Soda, which was also very good--simple, refreshing, and without any overpowering flavors. I actually enjoyed The Bowen House so much that I went twice during my weekend trip to Dallas. It has an almost speakeasy-like atmosphere, with low lighting and a cozy, historic feel. It's also in a very walkable area, which made it easy to visit on foot. There is some parking available, although I would say it's somewhat limited. I don't think it would be the best spot for a very large group, but it would be perfect for a few friends getting together. I also appreciated that you can order a drink while waiting for a table or bar seating, which made the wait feel much more enjoyable. Overall, The Bowen House was one of my favorite places I visited while in Dallas. Between the atmosphere, welcoming service, and well-crafted drinks, it's definitely a place I would return to the next time I'm in town.

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.
