    My daughter wanted to try it out so we went Friday evening. We didn't play any games.. just got food. We were seated at a table. It's cozy inside and you're able to play golf games which we will try another day. We ordered the fries with 3 dips as a starter. She got the BBQ Chicken pizza and I got the chicken sandwich and both were good.

    Veggie Omelette with bacon
    Mia E.

    Such a cute spot for brunch and golf lovers alike! The Banana Foster French toast was AMAZING! So rich! My husband had the Veggie omelette with bacon, which he said was amazing as well. This place is a scratch kitchen, so everything is made to order. If you are a golfer, there are 5 golf simulator bays that you and up to three of your buddies can hit golf balls. We sat in the bar area, and our bartender/server was Audrey, who was super cool! This place is so good. My husband and I will definitely be back!

    Philly steak pizza!
    Michelle B.

    Food and service was fabulous! Shay at the bar, Sonya the owner was great, we had the Philly Steak pizza, fantastico! I don't particularly care for pizza, but that pizza was incredible and the crust was perfectly crispy, plenty of steak and lots of cheesy goodness. My husband had a Whistlepig Old Fashion and loved it!

    Great staff, tons of TVs for whatever you want to watch, GREAT food, and all around one of the best restaurants you can go to around here!

    The Local Banana French toast

    Came here for the first time and idk if it was that it wasn't as busy but service was excellent. Their food is flavorful. I got the French toast and it was one of the best French toast I've had since I moved to Dallas. I love how the food came out hot and wasn't cold. Would be coming back again and again. Thank you for having us

    Been here several times since my original review - all visits were great. Today I ordered a burger on a gluten free bun and was served a regular bun. I asked if it was gluten free because it didn't look like it, and the server said yes it is. As I was about to take a bite she came back and said actually no it isn't. I was surprised because I knew the owner was very conscientious. Apparently she's no longer involved in the business. Explains a lot. Be careful ordering gluten free at this restaurant.

    Made a reservation for 4 at 12p on a Wednesday for their indoor golf and it was not busy at all! The ambiance inside appeared to be very elegant looking, but don't be fooled! It's a very casual space perfect for hanging out with friends. Our server (I believe her name is Alexis) was very attentive and sweet. She explained how all the game modes worked, and even gave her suggestions and recommendations on what to play! I give this place four stars because the sensor for the golf was kind of iffy. Some of us would hit the ball extremely hard and it would not count at all, and on the other hand, some of us would hit it lightly and it would register? It was completely backwards, but it didn't necessarily take away from the fun we had. It was something to just laugh off. We also made sure to not stand in front of the sensor so we knew that was not the reason as to why it wasn't registering fully. Besides the games, food and drinks were fantastic. We ordered some fries and the charcuterie board and both were very yummy! Make sure to order extra crackers for the charcuterie board or else you will run out before finishing everything else. Drinks were delicious and strong.. thank you bartender!

    Chicken and waffles, both of which were overcooked, but had good flavor!
    Mitchel R.

    This place charms with its friendly service and stunning modern decor. Although drink prices are on the higher side, the food offers good value for money. While the chicken and waffles fell short due to both being overcooked, they were flavorful, and the breakfast pizza was a tasty surprise, both in flavor and size. We went at about 11:30 on Sunday and were told they were only serving from the smaller brunch menu and not the lunch menu which was a little disappointing. They have an indoor golfing game as well, but we did not play it, so I can't speak to that at all. This is a cool place, I'd give them another chance.

    Went here over the weekend and it was great! The chicken and waffles tasted amazing! And don't get me started on the banana foster French toast - so good and has a filling inside!

    Golf bay

    Been here a few times for brunch and it always hits the spot. It amazes me how quiet and empty this place is in the afternoons when their brunch is extremely good & consistent. The owner himself takes your order and has always been pleasant. There are a few golfing bays if that's your thing, but also plenty of seating to enjoy a meal with friends or family.

We had reservations but there was no major crowd at 5:30. The place is contemporary, white tiles, brass finishes. Fully stocked bar. Nice big windows. Started with a Rail District cocktail that was really good. Finished with a Last Word which had a strong licorice flavor (not my fav) but the cherry at the bottom was great! We split the SPREADABLE WHIPPED LEMON BASIL GOAT CHEESE. Loved this. But note to the Chef or food prep - the toast crackers had so many holes in the bread, there was NO surface for the spreadable. Pieces of toast were basically outer crust and the inner area of bread had 90% giant holes. It was comical. Whoever plated this should have been more selective. My wife had the Salmon and I had the steak. The steak had a large pad of delicious blue cheese and butter on top of it, that slowly melted over the steak and potatoes. That was special. Endive salad was pretty dry, very little dressing. So I mixed it in with the potatoes and cheese/butter.

We started with the buffalo deviled eggs, which were honestly a standout--creamy with just the right amount of kick and a fun twist on a classic. I also ordered a salad that had candied pecans, apples, and grapes, topped with chicken that was cooked absolutely perfectly--so tender and flavorful. It's one of those dishes that feels light but still really satisfying. The ambience is what really makes this place special. It's super cute and thoughtfully designed--fun wallpaper, cozy green sofas, and really stylish light fixtures that give it a warm, inviting vibe. You can tell a lot of intention went into the space. We had the chance to meet the owner, Amy, who was incredibly friendly and welcoming--it's always a good sign when the owner is that engaged. Our server was also fantastic--very attentive, kind, and made sure we were well taken care of the whole time. Location-wise, it's just off Main Street, kind of tucked away to the side, which makes it feel like a hidden gem. There's a great view, plus both indoor and outdoor seating, and the water tower right there adds a really charming touch. Since it's newly opened, I'm really hoping they do well--this place deserves it. I also heard they'll be expanding into the suite next door, which is exciting. I took a peek at their dinner and brunch menus, and I'll definitely be back to check those out soon. Such a cute spot with great food, great people, and a great vibe.

Walking in, the atmosphere immediately threw us off--it had more of a sports-bar vibe, along with a "seat yourself" sign, and no staff greeted us. Honestly, if it hadn't been pouring rain, we probably would have left. With a name like Posh and Pours, we expected the décor and ambiance to reflect something a bit more upscale, but it didn't. However, we were pleasantly surprised by the food and drinks--both were very good. Our waitress, Meriyah, was excellent and truly the highlight of our visit. What didn't sit well with us was the overall staff dynamic. There was a large group of employees sitting at the bar chatting, looking very relaxed, while our waitress was running around taking orders for the entire place. When new customers walked in, the staff just stared at them instead of offering any kind of welcome. Considering the higher-end prices, the ambiance and service should match that level, and unfortunately, they did not. Because of the uncomfortable vibe from the staff (with the exception of our waitress) and the mismatch between price and atmosphere, we won't be returning.
