Crab claws
Tee J.

Picked up a to go order. I have been wanting to try the crab claws and they did not disappoint. They were scrumptious. I also got the sticky ribs because why not? I enjoyed them, as well. The place is beautiful on the inside. The staff was pleasant. I had to ask the hostess about where to park while dining in. She mentioned going around the corner of the building. I will have to remember that for next time when my friends and I do a meetup because I just dashed in and out.

Honey Bun
Nicholas C.

This place was a banger for brunch but I can completely understand the flaws some reviews showcase. Luckily we didn't experience anything that wouldn't make us return. The space itself was surprisingly small but the staff was very friendly. We were a walk in and the hostess was able to accommodate but gave us a time limit as a reservation would be incoming. The bar ended up opening up so we sat there. I got the short cakes + crispy chicks and was left amazed. It was recommended by multiple staff and I see why. The others of my party weren't really impressed with their food but would give it a try again. The food came out at various times with mine being one of the first to come out. We did get the honey buns as a starter which I wouldn't get again but they were good. I did just realize that the honey buns I ordered were supposed to come with three. I only received two. Had I not reverted back to the menu to look at what I had for this review, I wouldn't have noticed. I also wouldn't order them again.

Went here for happy hour and it was delicious! Courtney was our server and she was absolutely amazing; all the food items were amazing and the drinks were too! I had the island boy and it was a winner! Beautiful and clean establishment.

I brought family who was in town visiting here for an early dinner. We had reservations and were promptly sat but it took us asking for our waitress to show up. The restaurant is beautiful but small. They had Drumline playing on a big screen and they also had a DJ but it was still quiet enough for conversation. Our food was delicious and came out hot and as ordered. I would definitely return I just hope the service improves

Branzino

I went to Velour on a birthday dinner celebration invite! The location is near the AA center. We are arrived and the valet or parking is about two blocks away. They seated our party very late, even there was a planned party reservation . The party ahead us left late. We were offered champagne. Despite the late seating the service was good. The waiters were nice. The first course came out quickly. The second course were staggered. Some us got food quickly while others waited. The food was good. The branzino , catfish, crab claws were delicious. Nice restaurant, nice ambiance! I will be back!

This is my 7th time at Velour and I just have to leave a review because it's always a great experience! The crab was delicious, the drinks were great, and the happy hour prices were such a good deal where else can you get great tasting and strong drinks for $9. The hosts were very accommodating, and the servers were attentive. Definitely a spot I'd recommend for good food, drinks, and a great overall experience!

Sticky Ribs
Gervetti L.

You know those places you go to and really want to keep to yourself they're so good but they deserve to be amplified? This is one of them (and I already have shared and friends agree!) The food was delicious. They have a lot of great options on the menu, offer late night happy hour on the weekends (!) and are open late. For this visit we tried: - Roasted crab claws - 100/10. We ate every drop the beurre blanc we could scoop up with the bread! - Fried wings - 10/10 - Velour Ceasar + shrimp 9/10. It was over dressed, but the dressing was good and it was a great portion for 1/2 sized. I normally ask for it on the side so that's truly my miss. My friend had the sticky ribs and Tx Cobb salad 1/2 sized). She really enjoyed them but I unfortunately couldn't try since they contained pork. Our waiter was very attentive and helpful with making decisions for our meal and drink suggestions for my friend. This gem sits in Victory Park and has both in and outdoor seating options. It's such a vibe when you enter in - decorated well and whether a DJ or a playlist I had friends visiting recently who were looking for a place on a Thursday night and they raved about how great of a recommendation it was They also serve brunch so I can't wait to give it a try.

smashburger with fries
Princess W.

I visited this restaurant with a friend who raved about their dishes. Upon entertaining, the establishment appears large but the dining area is actually quite intimate. The decor stood out in the restaurant and the large mirrors surrounding the back wall. Our server was very kind and quite hilarious! He recommended some of his favorite entrees but I knew what I had my heart set on. The smash burger was pretty large ! I ended up only eating half and boxing up the rest for next day's lunch. (My air fryer is heaven sent). I would definitely go back to try other items on the menu. The drinks and food satisfied me and I'd definitely recommend this place if you find yourself near Victory Park!

Roasted Crab Claws
Rashad N.

This is a vibrant establishment with great music and vibes. The service was efficient and the food was really good. The crab claws are the best!

I missed the door to this place twice the ambiance is beautiful! I went for the crab claws and I was SO pleased! They were meaty and the sauce they came in was so good! It was happy hour so they were only $12! I also had a rum based cocktail that was frozen. It wasn't the best but again I went for the crab claws. My friend had the crab queso and loved it! I'd go back next time in Dallas!

I've been to Velour at least 5 times and I'm still on the fence about what to rate it. I wish we could give half stars because this would be a solid 3.5. Drinks and ambiance 5 stars, food 3.5 stars, service 2 stars. I really want to love it here but the service is consistently slow, even when it's not busy. Between the Lack of silverware, waitresses not checking in, and long wait for drinks (including water), I can't recommend coming here if you're in a rush. The food has potential. I really enjoy most of the appetizers. However the entrees are hit or miss. For example, the snapper dish is extremely over-seasoned, but the Caesar salad is perfection. If they improve the service and tweak some of the entrees, it's an easy 5/5!

New Restaurant that's been on my list. Welcome to Velour! I decided to check out Sunday Funday Brunch. I love that they offer Happy Hour Specials on Sundays. This includes BRUNCH! They have food and cocktail specials so that was a BIG plus. I have mixed emotions writing this review. Some things were truly great and a few things need work. They are new and still working out some kinks. Service 5 STARS Service was AMAZING! Our waiter was on point. He was polished, polite, pleasant and just phenomenal. He made the experience even better. I can honestly say he was helpful and went above and beyond my expectations. Ambiance 4.5 STARS The restaurant is definitely modern, posh and chic. It's truly cute and I appreciate the simple decor. The bar area feels sophisticated. It has a huge tv screen and nice barstools. The colors are nicely matched throughout the restaurant. The restrooms are dark, but sexy. It's a great space and feels comfortable and clean. Cocktails 4 STARS I thought they were all tasty and delicious. I could taste the liquor. I was happy and satisfied! Food 3 STARS Overall This is where it fell apart. I wasn't happy with it. Some items were yummy and others fell short. The good-OYSTERS were awesome. I loved these and would recommend them. The chicken lollipops were scrumptious. They were cooked perfectly and well seasoned. Presentation was excellent. These items get: 4 STARS. The ok-PANCAKES were decent. You get two and they are a good size. The syrup had a nice flavor. They weren't the prettiest pancakes, but overall they were acceptable. 2.5 STARS The bad-fried chicken was fried too hard and very BLAND. They need to work on the recipe. Also double check what pieces you will get. I was given a breast, thigh and wing. I like small pieces of chicken and had stressed this. They were out of legs and I really wanted a leg. Shrimp and grits were not the best. Grits were hard and undercooked. The shrimp were fine, but you only get three. 1STAR What I loved is that the manager came to the table. I gave him some constructive feedback. He was very receptive and offered to make things right. This made me feel better about dining here. The grits were sent back. I was able to get all wings. Overall it was good experience. I am always happy to support a new restaurant. I think once they work out a few things they have potential. A few menu tweaks on the recipes would be great. It wasn't perfect, but I can say the new leadership is great. My final thought is...Food really should be the star of the restaurant experience. Fix the chicken and grits!

My absolute favorite thing about this spot? The music isn't loud. No shouting across the table. No "WHAT?!" after every sentence. Just good vibes and even better conversation. We stopped by on a Tuesday for happy hour, before a concert. Erin was our server, and she was phenomenal. She gave thoughtful recommendations, knew the menu well, and made the whole experience feel easy and welcoming. Now let's talk food. We tried the lamb chops -- great flavor, nicely seasoned, though slightly on the tougher side. The truffle fries? Loved. The burger? Delicious. The oysters? Fresh and absolutely worth ordering. The cornbread was served with a bone marrow butter that added a rich twist, and the cornbread had a subtle jalapeño kick (at least to me!), which I really enjoyed. For drinks we tried the pear cobbler, Island Boy and the Pixie Cup. We enjoyed the pear cobbler the most. The ambiance is warm and inviting -- the kind of place you could come for happy hour and accidentally stay all evening. And I believe parking is validated. Overall, I definitely recommend checking Velore out. Great service, tasty food, relaxed atmosphere, and music at a volume that respects your eardrums. The menu will be changing again soon.

It was a travel day so we were on the hunt for brunch, what i failed to realize it waa a friday! So…read moreapart from this hiccup we looked over the rest of the menu and selected an appetizer and entree. Did you see the onion cup craze with the soup dumplings? If not, let me fill you in. Silly ole me asked if onion cups could be provided and the resturant obliged, thank-you! Now for the taste test. The shrimp and pork dumplings were well packed with the protein. They dressed it well in sauces too! As I placed my dumpling in the onion cup i can say the sharpness of the onion meshed well. The crunch also brought another level texture to a soft dumpling. Now this is usually done with soup dumplings but when I say its a trend it ended diverting from the original post. Regardless, the restaurantet let me be silly and I appreciated it! As for our pizza, not to sound like im a pizza critic but this was a good one. The slice held well the toppings were fresh, especially the basil! It was thin and airy. They do not have a brick oven in case you were wondering. It didn't matter to me. I enjoyed my pizza! The cocktails were spot on in liquor and flavor balance. Thank you once again for being a great start to my vacation!

The manager came out (because it was taking a little bit) and said a croquette broke when they were making one of our meals and had to remake it. We did not think the wait was long by any means, but it goes to show they take pride in getting their meals out to tables quickly. I got the Korean bbq bowl and my husband got the seared chicken, both were soooo good!

Our waiter John was incredible. He was kind, soft-spoken, personable, knowledgeable about the menu, and did NOT rush our dinner at all which was extremely appreciated.

I noticed that an employee slyly cleared my chopstick wrapper from the table so my parents and I put trash / empty plates at the end of the table and timed how long it would take for servers/bussers to come take them (lol) and both times it was within the same minute!!! It was refreshing to see people working together so harmoniously. Not to mention the ambiance is fantastic and everyone is always having a great time. Love hudson house so much ! 100/10

It seems the perfect place for meeting with friends, eating with family, or even stopping alone for dining or drinks.

Our server recommended butterflying our steak since we were in a hurry. The dynamite shrimp had a delicious salad mix with it. Everything was so fresh and flavorful.

Super cool brunch spot. The energy in the place was really high for a Sunday. Beautiful people all…read morearound enjoying their last few hours before the grind starts all over again. The restaurant was decorated with a lot of greenery. It's like if a person with a green thumb was allowed an endless budget. The back patio is where my party sat for a late lunch. A bit hot but the server kept the drinks flowing and the laughs kept us cool in between them. I ordered a chicken Caesar wrap. It was so damn good. Their fries were as well. I demolished this meal. My son sat at another table with his teammates and ordered the pizza. He loved it and ate the whole thing! Crazy but after a couple water polo matches I am not too shocked.

Don't ask someone what they want if you can't make it happen. She took the appetizer away. She asked if we wanted a manager. We said yes and had to ask twice for him. He finally shows up and tries to explain the kitchen was behind but didn't resolve our concern or what happened. He showed up annoyed and DISMISSIVE. Then.. they CHARGED us for the appetizer that was late and they TOOK AWAY.

It's a lunch spot with sandwiches and a glass of wine or a cocktail. It's the perfect place to work on your laptop or read a book, but also to take a casual date or your family for breakfast. They have a gluten free bread option (woohoo) and I've had both their avocado toast and the fried egg breakfast sandwich (with added avocado haha). Both are sooo good. The avocado toast comes with smoked salmon, which I do like, but I'm more of a basic avocado toast person. It also has a little pico de gallo and red pepper flakes! The breakfast sandwich is 2 over easy eggs, bacon, cheddar cheese, and tomato on sourdough (I subbed gluten free bread and added avocado) with a side of breakfast potatoes. It's a lot of food -- super filling and delicious. I also recommend their iced latte with whatever house-made syrup your prefer (usuals like caramel, vanilla, mocha, and then not-so-usuals like coconut pandan, lavender, brown sugar date, etc.). Enjoy!

Cool spot with lots of great events but the drinks are definitely overpriced. I'd avoid the matcha…read morecompletely.. $9 and tastes like matcha flavored milk. I usually don't judge matcha by color but this probably needs like double the matcha to be worth the price. It actually tastes really bad. I appreciate that the barista whisked it by hand and it wasn't just poured from a pitcher but not good at all. The food is okay but hit or miss. Lots of space to work and appreciate that there is a parking lot.

Valet parking is a big plus because the neighborhood has little to difficult to find parking. It is not free.... 2. We had noon reservations for group of 8 for Sunday brunch.

It is not a cheap experience but the quality of food makes us for it. 4. If you never had a French omelette, this is the place to try it. 5. One of the highlights of the menu is the maple pecan stick bun. 6. My wife had the quiche that she loved. The women had mimosas that they enjoyed and the guys had Bloody Marys 7. Everyone enjoyed themselves food from chicken/ waffles, burgers and croque monsieur which is fancy ham and cheese open sandwich.
