Went to The Hampton Social for a work-related meeting. I liked the open air design, which reminded me of a restaurant on a beach resort. We sat at the bar and were served by Carlos, our bartender. He was super nice and quickly brought out our drinks. I had the pleasure of trying the guava mezcal and mango lychee martini, and they were made very well. We nibbled on the truffle parmesan fries, and they were quite good. I didn't have an appetite going into the restaurant since I had dinner elsewhere, but I noticed how the menu matched the vibe of the restaurant. There were lots of seafood items on the menu, such as raw oysters and lobster rolls, that kept me interested in coming back next time. read more

Beautiful space with a modern bistro/coastal contemporary vibe. The décor and ambiance were the highlights of the experience. Unfortunately, the service fell short. When I asked about St-Germain cocktails, our server seemed confused and annoyed, while the bartender was much more helpful and friendly. We ordered the tuna tartare, and it was disappointing very little flavor and the tuna tasted low quality or pre-made. If you're a tuna tartare fan, I'd recommend ordering it elsewhere. The lychee martini was excellent, and the location near The Joule is convenient. Other than that, this was a one-time visit for me. read more

Really was not impressed! Hubby asked for a waffle, which he received, it wasn't even half the size of the small plate and was $9. He did enjoy the fruit bowl and eggs. I got the superfood bowl, without the egg...it was tasty. They used something in cooking it or prep that I am allergic to...but that happens from time to time. Will not be returning though, just not feeling the place. read more

We stopped by for happy hour since we were staying nearby. The restaurant wasn't very busy and we had an attentive waiter, which was nice. We tried several dishes from the happy hour menu, and nothing really stood out or was very flavorful or memorable. Across the board, portions sizes were pretty small and we decided to not order an entree and go somewhere else. The spicy margarita I ordered had a good kick and was potent. They also had the large doors to the restaurant propped open in the 90+ degree weather, which meant it was warm and there were small bugs flying around. read more

Came here for take out and got steak frites and lobster roll. Prices for size were a little off- barely any fries and on top of $4 upgrade for truffle fries. Flavor of food was all great but portion size and prices are very high. read more

This is a cute restaurant downtown Dallas. I went for my birthday and the food was good. I had the seafood gnocchi. I loved all the seafood that was included and the seasoning was impeccable. I also had a virgin sangria that was delicious. The brought me a complementary scoop of ice cream with candy for my birthday. I would go back. read more

Great time with friends. My food was good but a little light on seasoning. My cocktail was great- I enjoyed a French 75. The server was nice but not overbearing. It was dim lighting and music ( a little loud for my liking but wasn't too distracting ). read more

Watching the reviews made me think about coming here , but as always I like to have an open mind and give my own . Greeted nicely since start to or table . Thanks Marcus our waiter , for that positive attitude that made our dinner a nice experience contradicting any other review I saw . We had some Shrimp Tacos and they were so far one of the best shrimp tacos I ever had ,( at this point I gotta point out that o was hesitant once I saw them on a flower tortilla instead of corn , soon I realized that if it was corn it wouldn't have held the veggies/shrimp inside , well thought) Nice and relaxing afternoon having dinner and wine on outdoor terrace on a cloudy afternoon! Love it ! read more

The ambiance is AMAZING! Cool furniture - great music - nice set up. The food is pretty bad unfortunately. Confused on the type of cuisine. Seafood? Fake mashed potatoes, Mac n cheese Al dente and the WORSE orange juice lol. I say that because I believe a great place with a great adult drink would carry good juice but I just couldn't. Their gin and tonic is good though? Change the cook, change the menu and PLEASE change their uniforms!!!! We are not at Foot Locker. This place could be GREAT btw!!! read more

Visited the Hampton Social for a friend's birthday during their weekend brunch hours and it was a lovely experience. For drinks, they have both alcoholic and non alcoholic options. I ordered the Mermaid mist (mocktail) which is a blue raspberry sprite drink which I found very refreshing. For food I ordered the dynamite shrimp, truffle fries, and the warmed lobster roll. The lobster roll was flavorful, buttery, and perfectly seasoned. The lobster had a great texture and blended well with the sauce, complimented by the delicious warm toasted bread. You also have the option of getting the roll chilled too if you prefer and both options serve about 1-2 people. The dynamite shrimp consists of shrimp, cooked tempura style; it is very tasty and has a good spice, sesame seed, scallion, and chili sauce blend. Lastly the truffle fries are so tasty and borderline addictive, pairing very well with any of the appetizers or main dishes. Their meals are great for sharing amongst the table as well, especially the appetizers which have a diverse selection to choose from. I would definitely go back, as not only is the food good quality, the service was impeccable. Perfect for simple or special occasions. read more

Came here with my brother and loved the vibe immediately. Super cute spot with great decor and lots of fun happy hour promos going on. He ordered the truffle fries, I went with the oysters, and everything hit. Highlight of the night was finding a pearl in one of my oysters, such a fun surprise and made the experience feel extra special. The service was also great. You could tell the servers actually support each other, which always shows in how smooth and kind the service feels. Exciting, welcoming, and definitely a place I'd come back to for happy hour or a casual night out. read more

Good food, but the world's slowest service. Came on a Monday afternoon and there were not alot of tables sat inside at all.. we ordered the truffle fries and margarita from the happy hour menu. We also got two dozen oysters which were sooooo good but super small. They were both veryyyyy good. I also ordered an espresso martini and it was so delicious. For my meal I got the hamburger with Mac and cheese which was good! The ambiance in side is nice. For dessert we got the banana cream pie and it was soooo good. Overall food was good but service was very slow. read more

The Hampton Social offers great food, drinks, and a friendly staff, so it's surprising they're only averaging 3 stars. The culprit? Their non-transparent, mandatory 18% service charge. This kind of policy can hurt a business more than its customers or employees ever could. True transparency would mean simply increasing menu prices by 18% and removing the deceptive surcharge. After all, the total bill would remain the same. That said, the service and ambiance are excellent! The space feels like an upscale beach house, Downtown Dallas style, and they definitely nailed that aesthetic. Overall, it's an enjoyable experience, but the mandatory service charge leaves a sour note. If they focused on clear, upfront pricing, this could easily be a 5-star spot. read more

Aesthetic is very pleasing, the bars are crowded but service is ok when you can get a bar tender. The drinks are strong & good. However we did sit in the dining area and ordered food, for one entree they were out of broccolini & instead of substituting it for something else because they were out of it; the manager comes to the table to tell us it's a garnish, & that it's just 1oz of broccolini therefore it's not a side. Correct me if I'm wrong I've never seen a garnish listed on an actual menu. The fact that the manager had every excuse & didn't want to accommodate us was not desirable at all. For me customer service is key if you run out of something you should allow the customer to add a side, per what's listed on your menu it literally has broccolini listed as a side. Please see pictures below. Other than that our sever Kennedy was AMAZING!!!! Loved her! read more

Went here for Brunch and it was my first time! What a cute place, definitely will be back. It's much bigger than it looks, with multiple levels and a rooftop. We were sat on the rooftop. Service was great despite it being a busy day, and the aesthetics were nice, the staircase, the rose all day wall, the interior and the patio area. It transforms you into its own city, doesn't seem like you're in Dallas anymore. I ordered the Seersucker Squeeze drink and my friend got the Resort Water. They were both okay, didn't really feel like they were very strong for the $17 price. So that was disappointing. For entrees, I got the garden scramble which was delicious, and a good portion size. My friends got the Manhattan lobster roll which she enjoyed, and the other friend got the dynamite shrimp and truffle fries! We all enjoyed our food. read more

AUTOMATICALLY CHARGING 18% TIP for TWO PEOPLE WHEN THE SERVICE WAS SLOW AND BELOW PAR SHOULD BE ILLEGAL! Service was very poor and slow. Took 2 hours to get our food this Sunday for brunch. My partner got their food and I had to wait another 20 minutes to get mine. By this time our street parking time was up and we had to extend our time to eat the cold, soggy, and cardboard food that was brought to us. A little later another waitress brought out the same food we ordered which appeared warmers and more fresh and she took it back to the kitchen when we said we already got our food. There was a lot of confusion where so many tables's food was swapped around and multiple times where multiples waiters brought random food to our table. BUT charging me automatically a high tip for low quality service is awful and disheartening for a highly reputed place like this! Patio gets super full on the weekends! French toast came out cold and tasted like card board.Lobster roll is the only decent item on the menu here and the drinks were good! read more

The Hampton Social makes it look easy like great nights just happen there naturally. The drinks are top-tier and dangerously sippable, the kind that sneak up on you in the best way. Service? Flawless. Big shoutout to John and Alice for being absolute pros and elevating the whole experience. And the music? Perfectly curated chaos (in the best sense) whoever's spinning knows exactly how to read the room. Pull up for a drink, stay for the energy, and don't be surprised if it becomes your new go-to. read more

Food was decent and the waitress was a doll. I have a problem with the service fee. Our tab was over $700 and they added a $100 plus service fee. I asked if that was the servers gratuity and they said they get 12 percent of that. The rest is to pay the bartenders and hosts. So the owner can't pay the hourly wages? So on top of that I tipped the waitress another $100. I own a bunch of business and know times can be hard but the service charge is a joke. WATCH OUT!!! read more

I've been to a couple of Hampton Social locations in the past, so I was excited to try the new Dallas location. It was easy to make a reservation, and was able to book a dinner reservation for a Friday night. This location is located downtown, so parking was tricky. The hostess informed me that they plan to get valet parking soon. The location itself was very pretty, with 3 floors of seating. My friends and I were sat on the second floor. I will say it was hard to hear each other, and voices bounced off the wall from nearby tables, so keep that in mind. As for the food, we shared an appetizer and I had the caesar salad with tots on the side. The salad was just ok as well as the tots. It was a consensus at the table that we would return for drinks, but would skip eating a meal here. read more

My husband brought the family for Mother's Day and we had a great experience. Our server, Jocelyn, was great. We appreciated the recommendations she provided and she made sure to check on us regularly despite the restaurant being pretty busy. We enjoyed the buffet a lot. Our girls are really particular, but they had plenty of options. Would highly recommend this restaurant and Joselyn to be well taken care of. read more

Host was super friendly and we got sat right away, didn't have a reservation on a Sunday of Memorial Day weekend. Hunter out server was super knowledgeable on the history of the restaurant & the menu, he was amazing. This is definitely a great spot for girls night or any celebration dinners. Now for the food The calamari- seasoned well and super crispy. Can definitely tell it's fresh. Brussel spouts- the flavor was amazing, the goat cheese on the bottom was to die for with the flavor of the spouts and almonds. Vodka pasta- quite spicy but still really good. Pizza- taste like the best cheesy garlic bread you'd ever imagine. Truffle fries- these were SO good because the truffle was all throughout not just on top. Water- we might've been dumb young girls but the still water $9/ bottle. Should've gotten tap! read more

It was okay' beautiful place and there are some good food items on the menu but the consistency was lacking a bit especially when several people here ordered the same thing and it came out quite different. We had a good sized group and spent well over a thousand dollars for our 2 hr dinner. The waitress wasn't as attentive and lacked a bit of urgency resulting in many items Being cold or cold when she Finally came with the requested item.. whether a fork or sauce etc..also she may have been new bc she didn't know the menu very well. All and all the ambiance is beautiful. I'd like to come back for the Brussels sprouts, calamari and smashed burger. Hopefully it will come out hot this time. read more

This spot is a whole vibe! From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm, modern, and inviting--perfect for a date night or a night out with friends. The drinks were well-crafted and refreshing. I highly recommend trying the Resort Water or the Seersucker Squeeze--both were flavorful and balanced without being overpowering. Now, let's talk food. I ordered the salmon and the lobster roll, and both were absolutely delicious. The salmon was cooked perfectly--moist, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The lobster roll was fresh and buttery, with just the right amount of seasoning. Great vibe, great food, great drinks. I'll definitely be coming back--and bringing friends with me next time! read more

Music was so loud, I could not hear anyone t the table and we were sitting right next to each other. Food was overpriced but the service was excellent. Taste wise, I probably could have made something better at home, sorry. You're essentially paying for the aesthetic not the food. Would I go back? Probably not. Be aware, there is an 18% gratuity added to all bile, regardless of your party size....HOWEVER, if you use my referral link for the "Inkind" food app (white text, yellow box logo) you can save 20% off your ENTIRE bill plus you'll get $25 off any meal over $50.

We came to Hampton Social on a Saturday for a birthday brunch, and this spot absolutely crushed it. If you remember the old Iron Cactus that used to be here, the bones of the building are still familiar--but Hampton Social has completely transformed the vibe. It feels fresh, bright, airy, and brand new on the inside. Think: coastal getaway energy dropped right into the city. Service: Our server, Nikki, was incredible. Warm, social, funny, and perfectly attentive--she made everything feel easy and celebratory. The whole staff honestly went above and beyond to make the birthday girl feel special. They surprised us with ice cream for her and even brought out birthday shots for the whole table, their fun twist on a "Wicked"-inspired cocktail. Totally unexpected and the perfect little cap to the afternoon. Drinks: The drink menu is stacked. * The sangria hit that sweet-but-not-too-sweet sweet spot. * Friends who got the espresso martini said it was on the sweeter side--great if you like yours leaning dessert-y. * The tequila + cucumber resort cocktail was ultra refreshing and an easy favorite. And honestly, so many of their cocktails looked like you'd need to be stopped from ordering three at a time. Food: Brunch was delicious all around. * The lobster grilled cheese with lobster bisque was rich, indulgent, and absolutely worth it if you're hungry. * The shrimp tacos were flavorful and fresh (three tacos + your choice of side). * The ahi tuna salad--with shrimp added--was beautifully balanced and super tasty. * The chicken & waffles leaned sweet, which is perfect if that's your style. Everything was prepared well, plated nicely, and came out quickly. Overall, Hampton Social was the perfect host for a birthday brunch--great food, killer drinks, gorgeous space, and genuinely thoughtful service. read more

This will be short and sweet. This was a disappointment. We had a party of 6. The ambiance and our waiter were the best things about HS. Cold food, wrong items, and the manager(?) changing an order, because he "wanted to do something special", without consulting the diner. Why would you assume we wanted something other than what we ordered, without asking?! Also informed that item would be comped. It wasn't and had to be corrected. I can't speak for the others, but I won't be back. read more

The Hampton Social in Dallas is officially my new go-to! I grabbed a seat on the 3rd floor rooftop and the vibe was perfect--great views, great energy. I ordered the Brussels sprouts, the Carne Amore pizza (staff recommendation and a solid one), and the lobster roll. Everything was flavorful and fresh.

Overall 4.5 service was good. I enjoyed the Greek bowl with added chicken and the non alcoholic drink harbor breeze recommended by the bartender.

I really wanted to fall in love with this place! Wait, let me stop. I'm playing myself. I knew exactly what this was going to be. Typical instagrammable restaurant. Gorgeous views! Upscale, beachy vibes! But the fare? Meh. This is one beautiful restaurant! Wow. These folks spent some major coins! The food and service fell a little short. Super small portions for the price! The fish sandwich is like 3 levels up from McDonald's. Delicious! The monkey bread was monkey bread. The tuna tartare was pretty damn yummy...just wish there was more of it.

Well... I'm off oysters now. Went for happy hour and got the oyster special. Don't do it. Canned. Shitty. Over flowing the shell. Not glued to the shell Tried to eat one and almost choked. The presentation of the entire things was horrifying idk how they could look at that and serve it. We sent them back and it was nice that they did take them off the bill but truly I can't even look at oysters anymore after what was served and presented to us here. I wish I would've taken a picture because it was the most disgusting presentation I have ever seen we couldn't even look at them without wanting to barf. Do not order oysters here. For REAL DONT they are clearly canned, these looked like oysters on steroids, I'm telling you these oysters looked like they had muscles. Truly disgusting. read more

Sat on the rooftop for our reservation. Service delivery could have been better. I think she kinda forgot about us. Oysters were good they sat them in ice instead of rock salt and it melted very quickly water was everywhere. As I said our server kinda forgot about us so luckily another one saw the water pooling on the table. The crab bruschetta was okay. Needed more flavor. But the ambiance was great. Espresso Martini was good i appreciated the anchor read more

Hampton Social is a vibrant restaurant filled with coastal themed decor and cute neon signs throughout the dining areas. When we entered there were a few people ahead of us. We scheduled a reservation for 1:30 but for some reason the hostess was double checking to see if they could accept online reservations.. a bit odd. After speaking with other servers, she stated it would be a 10 minute wait. Unfortunately, the wait was much longer than 10 minutes and there were actually quite a few open tables. I could sense something was array as the manager was handling a lot of things and seemed a bit frantic. When we were seated, our server was ready to quickly assist us and was very friendly and attentive. I ordered the honey glazed salmon which accompanies power greens and heirloom carrots. My fiancé ordered the skirt steak frites with the heirloom carrots. The food was flavorful and cooked perfectly. There was a bit of confusion on the Mac and cheese as it stated it comes as a side when I received mine it was an entire pasta dish which I stated I did not want. I decided not to bring it up and just took the rest ToGo. Overall, it was a fairly good experience but it is a new establishment so they are probably still trying to find their groove. I will be back in a few months to see what changes are made. read more

We went with a party of 8 for brunch. We tried the appetizer of spinach dip, shrimp bruschetta, Brussels spouts. Everything was delicious. The French toast was amazing with their syrup!!!! For Brunch we had a few Gatsby breakfast plate, clam chowder, truffle fries, chicken sandwich, breakfast sandwiches with fruit. Sorry I didn't get picks of everything because they started eating. Now I had a lil issue with my plate. The food was not hot but lukewarm. So I went to the manager and told him and he returned with a fresh hot plate. I only needed my eggs and tater tater tots replaced but they came back and gave me a whole brand new plate..I loaded the pic below. This was a great experience. I will be back read more
