Lakewood Landing

A post-hang divey jaunt, thats been around for a minute, there for all occasions. The owner visits often, dogs in tow. Daughter bartends. Mom's illustration on the wall. It's a real family affair. There's a pool table and juke box in the back. We convene after shows, Omm included, performances, screenings and just for a nice night cap in general. They screen IDs at the door and change to a limited menu -after 10pm. Known for their onion rings, there isn't a bad item on the menu. Food ranges from nachos, to burgers, grilled cheese to corn dogs (if after 10p). I've had all sorts of drinks here too- including Malört. See my photos as suggestions. Open most nights, call ahead to be sure. There's parking around the venue. Enjoy!

Went again more recently for the jalapeño corn dog. What I didn't know when I walked in and took a seat in a booth on the back wall was there was no table service at that hour. Bartender happened to walk by and asked if I had ordered at the bar. No, I did t know I needed to do that. He took my order for a Guinness and a corn dog, and delivered it a while later. I noticed an older man with a woman in the booth next to me. Something about him seemed familiar. When he got up and I saw his face I recognized him as "The Old Gray Wolf" a Dallas radio personality. During his afternoon drive time show, he had a segment where he described a lounge we were entering, The Sunset Lounge, and I always imagined this place as that lounge. Anyway, the corn dog was worth the trip. I'd do it again.

Dark and cozy but super welcoming. The bartenders are very attentive and I found them to be super nice. I got the jalapeno poppers and onion rings and both were good although the poppers are spicyyyyyy. Loved the juke box and pool table, will definitely be back.

Cool ambiance & good service. Decent sized bar, some tables and a small outside area. Burgers, Fries and grilled cheese are great.

We went on a Saturday night, the place was small with limited seatings. Food was okay. There were not a lot of bar games except for a pool table. TV was tiny could barely see anything on the TV screen.

Truly the nicest and cleanest dive bar you can enter in DFW. They arent wrong when they say elevated dive bar on the outside. Walking in, I felt like I was transported 30 years back into time. Low lighting, lots of decor, all bathed in wood. I ordered a BLT sandwich with onion rings. The BLT came with plenty of bacon that was crispy but felt like it was oven baked? There was no chew to it, but it was just the right amount of crackling texture. They give you a generous amount of bacon, so its certainly feels worth it. The lettuce and tomatoes, and mayo were all tasty and refreshing. The bread was toasted just right to have a nice texture, have support, but wasnt overdone. The onion rings were textbook standard, but they hit the spot if youre wanting onion rings. I didnt order any drinks because Im a man of novelty and dont want to drink whats tried and true, but I imagine they do a good job, since everyone had a drink in their hand. For the most part, people were drinking bud light or coors out of bottles. While I cant see myself racing back over here, they execute the standards quite well. If Im in the area and crave traditional bar food, I would come back here.

Heck yeah I love this place. Their jalapeño poppers are some of the best in the dang world. I would eat and drink here everyday if I could.

So glad we finally tried this spot! Total dive bar, so don't expect anything fancy. Service was great, and they are friendly. Started with the queso and it was yummy! Nothing fake, good flavor. The burger is the star of the show. It was slightly greasy, but it was worth every bite. Great flavor, good size. Will be back for more!

This is my favorite dive bar of all time. Great service, great food, simple menu to choose from. Doesn't get better than this

The food is really good. My friends and I used to come often just for the burgers but lately the service has been awful regardless if it's busy or not. The waitress only came once for our orders and then for the check. We had to grab our own napkins and go to the bar to refill our drinks. The staff themselves can be a bit rude and doesn't really seem like they care about their customers unless you're a regular. After 3 disappointing times of terrible service, it's not worth the hassle for the burger.
