The quesadillas was delicious. The tacos were crates and the wings had all different flavor flavors to them. The dry wings were my favorite. They were so crispy and seasoned perfectly. The wet wings were a lot of sauce and of course I'm trying to look dainty like a lady and I've got sauce all over my face, lol but it was all good.

We came for Wednesday night musical bingo and a great time! I ended up winning one of the rounds and went home with a RR gift card! For dinner I had the Smash Patty Melt... 9/10. What made this melt nearly perfect was the caramelized onions and the sourdough bread. The bread was toasted to perfection with the best crunch. I usually tear the corners off of bread, but I saw this one all the way through. The only thing missing was a "special sauce" to tie it all together. The fries were solid; simple seasoning with a soft middle and crisp edges. I was lured in by the bingo, but I'll be coming back for the food!

One of my fave cocktails I've tried is the Spaghetti Cowboy, which is a whiskey based drink, but it's only available in the fall. In general however, they do have other great drinks that can range from fruity, strong, light and/or sour depending on your preference. The last time I went, it was during happy hour (4-6 pm, weekdays), when HH drinks are $9 each. I ordered the mushroom toast and my fave food option which is the Cacio e Pepe. They use flat long pasta in their Cacio e Pepe that is so delicious, flavorful, and hearty and top the dish off with a generous amount of Parmesan cheese. I also appreciate how late their kitchen is open in the evenings (10-11 pm) so you can stop by for a late night bite.

Forever my favorite bar in Dallas. For years, the Kennedy Room, an elegant little cocktail bar off…read morethe side of the Old Warsaw, played host to countless conversations and martinis with friends, sat among its retro chic decor and nods to its cheeky, if not somewhat morbid, namesake. It had been a number of years since I visited, so we prioritized a stop in on our recent trip to Dallas. Although it appears that this spot has taken a somewhat more casual approach in recent years, the vibes were still there and the espresso martinis hit the spot on a cold night. A Dallas classic and a must when in uptown.

Maybe there is a part of the…read morelocation that's closed, but I definitely wouldn't consider the part we were in a speakeasy - absolutely more of your standard bar. It was early and not busy yet so my husband and I sat at the bar. Tinah and Daisy were working that evening and we had so much fun with them! They made amazing matcha shots and fresh popped popcorn (soooo good!) to celebrate my birthday and asked us for suggestions on the music we'd like to hear. They had the game on the TV so we enjoyed watching that as we drank. As it got later more people came in and starting playing pool and other games. This is a great place to stop by for drinks to end your night.

How can you argue with that? You can't. Solid. - spicy chicken strips: these were good but nothing special. What was special were the sauces this came with. Aside from that, we felt the chicken was kinda dry. Very crispy though. - bourbon bread pudding: Just Good.

After requesting a water to go, we were unexpectedly accused by the bartender, Jake, of placing an alcoholic beverage into a to-go cup. The accusation was embarrassing, unnecessary, and made even more uncomfortable by the fact that it was made publicly and without cause. To be fair, the manager on staff handled our complaint regarding Jake professionally and with care, which we truly appreciated. However, the situation itself left a lasting negative impression. As professionals in the criminal law and medical fields, we value professionalism, discretion, and respectful communication. Being wrongly accused in that manner was disappointing and frankly humiliating. Because of this experience, we will not be returning anytime soon, despite what had otherwise been an enjoyable evening.

It is true

The location is super cute and always packed. You definitely need a reservation or have to go super early to get a spot. There is valet parking as well as street parking, which can get a bit crowded. I've had a ton of different food items the years, but their fajitas are their signature dish for a reason! It comes out sizzling, fresh, and delicious. Do not pass up on the bone marrow sauce, it transforms the dish to beyond a 10/10! The salsas are always good and then tortilla chips salty and fresh. I start with a skinny margarita w a salt rim, which was good. Our waiter, Abraham, was great! He was very attentive and was very knowledgeable about the menu. We also order the ceviche to start, which was yummy! The crackers were a bit of an odd pairing for me and I stuck with tortilla chips, but overall delicious!! My friend ordered the steak quesadilla and thought it was tasty too.

I wished it came with more than 3 tortillas or at least 4 since I don't put too much meat in my fajitas. I also tried the hickory grilled ribs. It was kinda salty, but the barbecue sauce was ok. The meat was very tender & falls off the bone. The fries that it comes with were alright. There was a little of wait, but I didn't mind since the food was good. Our food did take a while. Our waitress was very attentive & filled our water. There was seating inside & outside on the patio. I was glad that we were sat outside since it was a beautiful day today. Besides inside was kinda dark. Overall, the food is a little pricey, but totally worth it. A must are their fajitas.
