The Filter Building? More like The Furnace Building--because attending a wedding here in May felt…read morelike celebrating vows inside an actual oven. Choosing this place for a Texas summer wedding is practically sabotage, and I'll tell you why. Picture this: the bride, groom, officiant, and wedding party forced to stand directly facing the blazing sun at 5pm (all to get the lake in the background). Guests are sitting in direct sunlight, melting, turning the ceremony into an unbearable endurance test. Everyone spends hours getting ready, wearing designer, only to have your blazer turn into a portable sauna, your undershirt is now marinated in your own sweat, and your deodorant taps out like "I wasn't built for this." If you think alcohol will make this better, think again! You can't of catch a buzz because it's so hot that any alcohol consumed immediately escapes through your pores. If you thought you'll just go inside for relief, you'd be wrong again! Expect the interior temperature of the building only marginally cooler than outside, maybe a toasty 90 degrees. Once the doors mercifully open to the building, there's a mad dash to the smallest bathroom in Texas--three tiny stalls and one pathetic sink to service a crowd of sweaty survivors. Mirror? Vanity space? Not here. Prepare to freshen up makeup elbow-to-elbow with strangers, in line, like you're waiting for a ride at Disneyland (minus any of the joy). After exiting the bathroom you'll see the long, hallway-like layout. This narrow layout ensures that anyone seated towards the back misses everything happening on the stage. Guests were left shouting conversations over deafening acoustics and cheap concrete flooring. The cramped table arrangement created constant traffic jams and awkward, uncomfortable pathways just to move around. Outside was equally dreadful. The ceremony area was poorly designed, with an embarrassingly short aisle that robbed the bride of a proper procession. Photography conditions were awful, marred by either glaring sunlight or the shadow of the building (no sunset views). The spider-webbed oak trees added to the unkempt appearance, signaling neglect and lack of care. Parking was another disaster, forcing guests to navigate through a rough, unpaved secondary lot, making an already unpleasant experience even worse. Finally, if you were hoping for some redeeming aesthetic charm, sorry. You'll find none in this ugly orange-brick box inconveniently located far from any decent bars or entertainment. Brides, unless your dress code includes swimsuits and flip-flops, pick literally anywhere else for your summer or early fall wedding. The Filter Building has successfully filtered out comfort, logic, and fun.

From start to finish we had amazing service from the hosts to the servers. The prosciutto toasts and deviled egg appetizers were delicious! From flavors to textures, each bite was crave-able and well thought out. The ambiance was sophisticated and they had live music playing when we came. The vibes were moody and classy. Obviously the star of the show was the wines. I had multiple glasses and each one was so good. We had both reds and whites, and I got a tour of their storerooms in the back - pretty epic!! I hope to come back every time I'm in Dallas!

The front can be confusing to newcomers. They have two doors and everyone is always coming in and…read moreout. The bouncers are friendly and helpful. Wednesday's are EDM and the same crowds come by. They have an outside area in the back where they have a lifted stage for the dj's in the middle and a fenced front where pyrotechnics with all the equipment and props are. They can get a little out of hand sometimes with some having slips or drops but nothing major, everyone is still having a good time. Some nights they have, heating lamps, tables or just an open area.. it depends on the weather. Also some local art, fragrance and clothing vendors, pretty neat. Inside, the bar is chill. Never really crowded. They have tvs playing sports or a movie. Bartenders are quick, drinks are good and decently priced. The inside stage is a good lay out for any band. The sound guy is great and takes care of anyone who performs. However, if the band is inside on stage you can still hear the dj's outside in the back..but the back doors are open and I think have to be.

Fights kept breaking out, "security" would break them up but not kick the guys out, so they kept starting more fights.

I ended up just hanging out in front of the building for the majority of the show because it was so over packed and crazy inside.

This review is about the gardens that surround the Bush Center, not the museum or library…read more It was a beautiful Sunday and the kid wanted to ride her bike so we headed to the Bush Gardens for her to ride without having to worry about cars, traffic, and crowds. The garden in the spring is beautiful with the flowers in bloom. You really feel like you are in nature with all the different plants, trees, trails, a creek, wooden bridge, wild flowers, and serenity. This time I avoided the parking fee by parking in a free lot at SMU and walking 10 minutes to the Bush Center. Overall, the gardens are a gem in Dallas. They are completely free and in some ways just as nice as the Arboretum, just smaller.

I like the staggered standing levels. If you want to get into the action up front you can do it but I prefer to be in the second level which is close but I don't have to worry about a mosh pit or anything. A few different bars - lobby or just inside the theater to keep you hydrated. Parking can be easy on Greenville in certain places if you know where to look although as new restaurants are opening nearby I'm gonna lose my go-to parking.

Looks like the theater pulls in decent performances and I will definitely come back.
