    Buttoned Up Jack Burger + Side Salad
    Kevin Z.

    Nice vibe, pretty good price. I was looking for a good burger today, and this place did not disappoint. If you're a fan of a sesame bun, I thought this one was quite good. The buttoned up jack was a nice juicy burger with good onions, cheese, and mushrooms. I got the side salad which was $1.50 extra and asked for caesar dressing. I thought the dressing was pretty odd - it was sorta chunky and not like other caesar dressings I've had before. Wouldn't personally recommend it. I'm not a fan of potato chips being the default side while french fries are $1.25 extra, but overall the pricing here is pretty good so I don't mind. Waiter was nice, check is done via mobile device rather than paper, so pretty efficient.

    Had brunch with some friends and enjoyed it! This place is very affordable too! Ordered the eggs my way dish, which was only $9 and very filling! Had 2 over easy eggs with 2 pieces of bacon, some toast, and some potatoes, which were really well seasoned! Our waitress was very attentive and sweet! The inside is very modern and colorful, with lots of seating: booth and bar. The outdoor patio also has lots of table seating, and it is fully covered! Bathrooms are super clean. Highly recommend this spot for brunch!

    Came here for drinks on a weekend night with some friends. The margarita was great, not too sweet. We sat outside on the patio towards the corner back. Our server made sure to take our orders in a timely matter and check up on us throughout the night. He also let us know when last calls Were being taken before close time. He also got some fries to share, which were really filling and yummy. Would come back for sure.

    Servers are very kind and patient. Willing to answer any silly questions we had. Nothing beats a specialty shot with skittles

    OG Cheese Fries
    Konnori B.

    I have never had Roy G's before despite living right by it for so long! Last Friday night, it was time to visit and see what it was about! Upon entering, you seat yourself and a server will come to you (which they did pretty quickly). The atmosphere is relaxing and reminiscent of an LGBT bar, similar to Hamburger Mary's but toned down a little. All of the drinks are pretty strong. The pink-ish one was very refreshing, while the blue one is a strong frozen lemonade. It is definitely bitter and not sweet, so be warned if you're not a fan of that! The margarita was great tasting and had a nice spicy kick to it! The cheese fries were great and priced well for a half order ($7) with a generous amount. My only critique is that their actual fries have seasoning on them, and I wish that could have been added on the cheese fries. I'd still eat them again though! Now for the best part: the burgers. What came on it was Gorgonzola cheese, onion rings, and caramelized onions; I got a beyond patty with mine and added "G sauce," which is like a chipotle mayo. This burger was amazing! I loved how crispy the patties were which I haven't experienced since eating plant-based burgers! The fries, as mentioned earlier, have great seasoning on them. I couldn't stop eating! Service was great as it always is on the strip on Cedar Springs! Overall, I am going to have to return here and get more food and drinks because everything was all priced well, not to mention it was great! Roy G's did not disappoint, and I will definitely be back for more!

    Soft pretzels and espresso martini
    Michael C.

    Cute little bar. When we went in there was almost no one in there and the music was really quiet, which made the atmosphere awkward. We were just snacking, so we ordered soft pretzels and espresso martinis. Given that we were like 50% of the people in there, I was shocked by how long it took to get our food and drinks (and later on, our second drinks). The pretzels got rock hard fast and the martinis tasted like burned cigarettes.

    Buttoned up Jack Burger with Fries
    Shayla N.

    Hello? If you're in the neighborhood, you have to come here. Especially on a weekday, stress days, in the afternoon, about 3-6pm. When you come, you'll definitely see me here for their $5 burger deal + sides!!!! Besides the affordability, the drinks and food taste so gooooood. Man, I can another Winterberry Twist. Let me give you the run down of my experience. It's not a super busy place, luckily. It feel so comfortable to come with your friends and gosssip. That's what I did and we stayed for 3 hours. The food: Buttonup Jack - the bomb dot com. I love mushrooms and this is the burger for me. It's well made and only freaking $5!! You're crazy if you don't eat here. The fries was part of the deal too and that is seriously enough for dinner. Fried Mushroom - all I got to say is finally! I found a place that sells actual fried mushroom that taste like mushroom more than dough. It's good. $9 is plenty of mushroom. It's enough to take home and air fry for later. Winterberry - yum. It's super sweet with a nice punch of liquor. Will order again. By the way, if you don't tip, you're also crazy because the service there is so nice. Everyone is super friendly. They refilled my water without me knowing and I talk a lot. Fully appreciate it

    What a difference a few years have made. I've been back a couple of times recently and I couldn't be happier. The fried mushrooms are amazing and so are the burgers. Great service and ambiance.

    Our cold cheese fries we endured to ignore waiting for a longer period of time
    Vick V.

    The waiter took our drink order for us not to get it. But all of the tables around us got their drinks. After 35 minutes, we said to cancel them because it was obvious we weren't getting them. He said okay, and didn't even seem to mind. He has glasses and seems like he's in his 20's-30's. So many tables he was serving got their drinks and food before us, and they arrived after us with more people than we had at our table. Our food came out only when he looked at us after 30 minutes and went to the kitchen. I got the grilled cheese and the soup, which were barely warm. My friend got the chicken sandwich and cheese fries, which weren't even warm. After multiple times of coming here, I expected the service I received before. I will NOT be coming back to Roy G's. After all these years. Terrible. I'm so disappointed. Don't come here. They've apparently changed employees and only care about a certain demographic.

    Mimosa Tower!
    Parker G.

    Roy G's was a blast! We came here on Sunday for some mimosa fun and didn't regret it one bit. It's in Cedar Springs, a great area for the LGBT community to hangout and have fun. There's both an interior dining space and an enclosed patio area that we sat at. It was very relaxing and fun. Our server was awesome! We had some great conversations with him and he was super friendly! It also didn't take long to get our food or anything else that we needed once we asked. The mimosa tower here was so much fun!!! I haven't seen something like it before, and we had a blast using it to have a bunch of mimosas. They had several different flavors, so we decided to give pineapple and cranberry a try. The food here was also delicious - I loved my caprese panini, and the Buffalo bites appetizer was also really yummy. Reasonable prices - no complaints! I have nothing but good things to say about Roy G's, especially because of the super fun mimosa tower and the really friendly service. Coming here for brunch was a really unique experience that I thoroughly enjoyed. I definitely recommend experiencing this place!

    The rainbow
    Sheng H.

    Came on a Saturday for a late brunch. Didn't do any reservations so we were seated outside. It was a nice day, so I didn't mind it. Of course I got the rainbow shots for IG purposes only, the drinks were not my most favorite. Egg Benedict was amazing!! I highly recommended Roy G's was good, so I will go back. I can't wait to try more of their drinks

Our event coordinator had already been in contact with each hotel's sales team regarding room blocks, but my fiancé and I wanted to personally see the properties before recommending them to 30-40 hotel room blocks. Although we arrived after sales office hours, Liz at the front desk was exceptionally kind. She walked us through the restaurants commonly used for private events, explained the renovation timeline, and invited us to take our time exploring before returning to the front desk to view a standard guest room. Unfortunately, our experience changed when another employee, who later identified himself as Clayton, a manager, stepped in. It appeared he had been listening to our conversation but had not introduced himself. He abruptly informed us that we would not be able to view a room. We explained that our event coordinator was already working with the sales manager regarding room blocks and pricing, and that we were simply trying to ensure we felt confident recommending the hotel to our family and friends. Despite understanding the situation, he remained unwilling to accommodate the request. His only suggestion was that we purchase a room if we wanted to see one. For us, this interaction spoke volumes. Hospitality isn't just about beautiful rooms--it's about making potential guests feel welcomed and valued. If this was the experience we received as prospective clients considering multiple wedding events and dozens of room nights, it gave us pause about what our guests might experience. As a result, we will likely to move our room block, welcome dinner, Saturday event, and Sunday brunch where we're met with warmth, flexibility, and genuine hospitality from the moment we arrive. The Joule is undeniably a beautiful property, but customer service plays a major role in our decision-making. Unfortunately, this experience left us feeling that our business was neither appreciated nor wanted.

I hit the jackpot gem with Bucket and Rope. This place is just off the main areas in downtown near the Dallas Farmer's Market. The patrons are mostly locals who know what's up. The layout is spacious but welcoming. I sat at the bar as I was solo, but there were plenty of great seating options including comfortable couches. The patio is currently being re-done, but will be perfect for the upcoming fall season. The menu offerings were plentiful and varied, but there are specials and rotating options as well. Alexa at the bar greeted me, and went over the menu and specials with me. She did a great job making my cocktails and giving casual conversation throughout. I ordered the off-menu Steak Frites with broccolini and fries. The steak was charred perfectly on the outside and moist and at the lovely medium temp on the inside. The broccolini was on point with just a bit of spice from the red pepper. Fries were shoestring style, and they did it right with that perfect crisp on the outside and soft inside. I learned that Thursdays are paella night! What a great surprise in downtown Dallas! When in the city again, this will absolutely be my go to place for cocktails and great food.

We let him know upfront that we were on a HARD stop--we had a flight to catch in about an hour and a half--so we asked how we should pace our meal.

We also ordered the lobster mac & cheese, fried catfish, pork chops, black-eyed peas cooked with smoked turkey over rice, collard greens, smoked oysters, grilled shrimp appetizer, wild berry lemon drops, and strawberry lemonade. Everything was delicious. Not one disappointing dish on the table. Then came the bill...$450 for four people, with no dessert. That was definitely a bit of a shock. We realized gratuity had already been added, which helped explain the total, but it still felt steep and took a little of the shine off an otherwise great experience. The food was amazing, the service was on point, and Cam did exactly what we needed him to do. But $450 for four people with no dessert? That part was hard to swallow--and it wasn't the food!

Again, I'm from Alabama. The greens were salty and I had to doctor up the grits. If you're not used to southern cooking, I would say definitely try it.

I'm going to give it another try and to sample more menu items when I'm near another location because I've heard great things about the food and I always give worthy places more than one chance. I'll do another review once I try it again.
