    The only bar I frequent in deep ellum now. Good music and great atmosphere. Cool upstairs patio.

    Cast of Uptown Revue for their Disco Fever show.

    They are always a fan of the arts and if you haven't been to show you're missing out. The staff is amazing from the bouncers looking out for you to the Bartenders making your drinks with your custom additions. Highly recommend you stopping by for a show, night cap or just to see the place. They have 2 floors full of music and vibes so get out there and dance or just watch as you sip!

    Imma go ahead and give this 1 star! Paid $20 dollars for parking. $10 a piece for entry with no rentry and nobody dancing everyone just sitting. Music was good. Just vibe was off.

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.

There is no respect for the line whatsoever, and large groups of people are just consistently let in before those standing in line. Given the fact that this is more of a cocktail bar than a club, this is highly abnormal. That being said, it's easily one of the most pretentious places for nightlife in Dallas. Would definitely seek out another location if you would simply like a fun night out. Monkey Bar next door is a fantastic alternative.

    On August 8, 2026, at approximately 9:30-10:00 p.m., my friends and I had drinks at Monkey Bar and…read moredecided to visit the lounge next door afterward. We waited in line like everyone else, remained polite, and followed all instructions given to us. After waiting at the entrance for approximately 15-20 minutes, we respectfully asked the employee working the rope how much longer the wait might be. He explained that a few people needed to leave before anyone else could be admitted, so we thanked him and continued waiting. While we waited, we watched numerous people approach the entrance, greet the employee by saying things like "Hey bro," exchange handshakes, and immediately be allowed inside. At least 15 people were admitted ahead of us after we had already been told to wait. From what we observed, these individuals were not being admitted because they had reserved tables--they were simply allowed to enter. When I asked again why we were still waiting, the employee changed his explanation and stated that we could not be admitted because of the dress code. This was confusing because we had just watched multiple guests enter wearing clothing that appeared to violate the same dress code. When I politely pointed out this inconsistency, he ignored my question. He then gave a completely different reason, telling me that we were being denied entry because of a review I had left over a year ago. I explained that customer reviews--whether positive or negative--are a normal part of operating a business and that my review was an honest account of my experience. It contained no false information or fabricated events. I also pointed out that the establishment has many reviews, so a review from over a year ago should not determine whether a paying customer is allowed to enter. The employee then stated, "You didn't say kind words about me in your review." At that point, it became clear that this decision was personal rather than based on any legitimate policy. As the conversation continued, the employee became increasingly aggressive toward my friends and me. We remained calm and respectful throughout the interaction. We are professionals with established careers and had no intention of creating a disturbance or behaving disrespectfully. The employee then threatened to call the police. I responded that he was welcome to do so because we had done absolutely nothing wrong and were happy to explain the situation. When the officers arrived, both sides were able to explain what had happened. After speaking with everyone, one of the officers informed us that we had done nothing wrong and apologized for the inconvenience and embarrassment we had experienced. Afterward, I asked if I could speak with a manager regarding the situation. The employee refused my request, stating that he was the "door guy" and that he was not going to get a manager because it was his responsibility to handle the situation and he no longer wished to engage with us. This entire experience was humiliating, unprofessional, and extremely disappointing. I was visiting town for work, as I no longer live in the area, and this was not the type of treatment I expected from an establishment where I have previously spent money and have never caused any problems. I am requesting that upper management or the owner contact me directly regarding this incident. Denying entry based on a personal disagreement over an honest customer review, while providing inconsistent explanations and refusing access to management, is unacceptable customer service. I hope this matter will be investigated so that future guests are treated fairly, respectfully, and consistently.

Solid old fashioned, some amazing food and some food that leaves much to be desired. We decided to try out Regine's Lounge after catching a show at the Omni in Dallas. We made a reservation for 2 at 8pm, parked easily (reasonably priced valet), and were seated promptly when we arrived. The space is beautiful and there was live music that added a nice touch, but the energy level was still low with the space being at less than 50% capacity. Upon sitting down, we both noted that we didn't like how far apart we were. We felt the need to lean far forward when talking and it would have been awkward to hold hands when talking (always a nice option if you're on a date and it's going well). My date ended up just sitting on the couch side of the seating next to me which worked well but would have been a little awkward if it was crowded. While not exceptional, the service was solid with the waitress checking back regularly. I ordered an old fashioned to drink and it was solid but nothing to write home about. The online menu doesn't seem to match what's available on the current menu, so I'll do my best describing our order. We ordered the Crispy Rock Shrimp (very good), Wagyu Dumplings (outstanding), and a mushroom and truffle item (I don't know what it was called on the menu and I didn't actually know what it was when it came out; it was mushy and the flavor was not good; we did not finish it). So all in all, I'm glad I tried it because I like new experiences. There is much to like but unfortunately much also left to be desired. I will not be going back for seconds.

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.

    Overall: 4.7/5 [dine in]…read more Service was amazing! Our waitress Emilia was super attentive throughout the whole night. The drinks have unique flavor combinations that actually deliver and the happy hour is phenomenal. We're talking 50% off select appetizers and entrees, $12 Over the Counter cocktails, $10 classics, and BOGO ponies and shots. They also have daily specials Tuesday through Thursday and Sunday. The space has serious speakeasy vibes so give your eyes a few seconds to adjust when you walk in from the bright light outside. Icelandic Hot Dog ($3.50 HH): Tiny single bite TX wagyu dog that was cute but hard to share. Tasted pretty similar to a regular hot dog. Tostada ($4 HH): Kanpachi on a blue corn tortilla. I'd recommend getting 2 since it gets messy the moment you take a bite and I didn't really get a proper taste of it because of that. Caviar Chip ($6.50 HH): A generous dollop of caviar on a kettle cooked potato chip with creme fraiche underneath. A yummy combo but honestly something you could recreate at home. East Coast Oyster ($2.75 HH): My husband got a single oyster to try and thought it was pretty good. London Fog ($12 HH): Milk washed London dry gin, earl grey, aveze, dry curacao, and vanilla orange honey. I loved this cocktail. I don't usually like gin and find earl grey too strong on its own but this combination was perfection. It was also served in the cutest tea cup with a yummy cookie on the side. Morocco ($12 HH): Moroccan mint tea, terralta reposado, rye, fernet branca menta, and agave. Not my favorite compared to the London Fog but my husband absolutely loved it and said it was one of the best cocktails he has ever had. He even said it would have been his signature cocktail at our wedding. I was shocked but to each their own. Confit'd and Fried Chicken Wings ($7.50 HH): The most disappointing item of the night. Came with 6 wings tossed in a Korean wing sauce that tasted very close to buffalo. The wings themselves were average. Skip these. Beef Cheek Tacos ($12 HH): Came with 3 tacos that were some of the best we've had in a while. Delicious, flavorful, no notes. Highly recommend. Soft Serve Marg ($12 HH): Like a boozy dole whip that doubled as dessert. Not too heavy but not super strong either. A fun way to end the meal. Pekin Tom ($20): Duck fat washed wild turkey 101, lapsang peach liqueur, absinthe, and pecan smoke. Not part of the happy hour menu. They smoke it right in front of you which is a cool presentation but the taste was pretty average. APO Burger ($10 HH) + Truffle Fries Sub ($7): The truffle fries felt a bit steep but they ended up being worth it. Super crispy, delicious, and addictive. The burger was cut in half which made it easy to share and it came with a TX wagyu patty, bruleed fontina, Spanish tomato spread, garlic whip, and chive. Burst of flavors, melt in your mouth wagyu, absolutely chef's kiss. We will 100% be coming back. It's a perfect spot for an intimate date night.

When we walked in, the hostesses greeted us and seated us at the table we had reserved in the Leopard Room. Initially, we were placed at a small half table along the wall. We asked if it was possible to move, and they happily accommodated us. That particular table felt a bit awkward for conversation since you can barely face the person across from you. It might work better for someone sitting alone and people watching rather than having a full conversation. Service throughout the night was great. The staff checked in regularly without being intrusive and made sure we always had what we needed. For drinks, I would say they were just okay. They were not bad, but they also were not particularly memorable. Given the speakeasy concept, I expected a bit more creativity in both flavor and presentation. We ordered the Melting Clock Elixir, Persistence of Berries, Cotton Candy Cloud, and the Surrealist 75. As the night went on, the space became much more crowded and louder once the DJ started playing. If you are hoping to have a relaxed conversation and catch up with friends, this might not be the best spot later in the evening. From what I saw, the Library Room seems to have a nicer atmosphere for that. The Leopard Room leans more toward a lounge or club-like environment as the night progresses.
