Swank

I came here last night for the first time. I interacted with them ahead of time on instagram asking what they recommended- i was told the scallops, lamb or surf and turf special. We were seated immediately and our server was very friendly. Apparently there was a family emergency and one of the owners had to rush out so they were trying to get all the orders in asap so that caused some stress in my group.The food came out quickly and the portions are pretty good. The prices were a bit higher than i would like. I didn't realize the price of the surf and turf since it wasn't on the menu so i was a little bummed with the price but my fault i didn't check ahead of time. My steak was cooked well but i didnt love the seasoning. Same with the shrimp. I felt like the pasta was a bit under. I just felt underwhelmed for the price. Would i come back here? At this point probably not. I wasnt wowed. I liked my mocktail but felt that the glass was mostly ice. The indoor area was pretty simple but a bit cramped. The outdoor area has a cute set up. I wouldnt have minded eating out there.

Excellent food and vibe! Lovely cocktails and appreciated Thursday night 1/2 price bottles of wine.

Nice decor-fireplace on the tv above the bar.SeatingPorch, bar, tables. Great fir groups. ServiceChef Nick and Genilys ( hope I spelled it right) are AMAZING!! Attentive-remember our favs-informative menu recommendations. MenuBest happy hour in Dallas! Wine selection. The cheeses, meats on charcuterie board vary-love it! The bread on the board is thinly sliced and toasted- tasting of butter and garlic. So good. Best mussels in town. We are weekly guests and are never disappointed.SummaryConvenient location. Large parking lot, superb service, great food! Love this place!

Talk about Authentic!! The food was delicious. Each dish was prepared and plated beautifully. The vibe is intimate-cozy/chic. The entire staff went above and beyond. You feel like part of a family the minute you step in the door. It's the food though!!! Come and eat here!

Do yourself a favor. EAT HERE.Stopped in for a date night recently and we were not disappointed. Where do I even start?!?!!!Drinks: Espresso Martinis - these were good, but I've had better else where. Ended up adding a dash of cinnamon for flavor. Appetizer: Beef carpaccio with crostini's - MUST TRY!!! Makes me drool just thinking about it and the perfect amount of spice.Salad: Caesar salad - I love a good Caesar and this one did not let me down. Could even taste a hint of honey mustard in the dressing; sounds weird but compliments it so well. The garlic roasted tomatoes on top will melt in your mouth.Entrees:Braised short rib pasta - super creamy and fantastic flavor. The meat was so so tender. Had to order a side of bread to soak up all the saucy goodness.Lamb chops with whipped potatoes - these were the STAR OF THE SHOW. My boyfriend has an obsession with lamb chops and he swears up and down these are the best he's ever had. Can't forget the garlic potatoes though... These just added to the heavenly dish. Dessert:Chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream - cherry on top of an amazing meal!Was honestly super hesitant on even making this review because I CANNOT let everybody find out just how good this place is. 100000/10 would recommend for your next dinner/date night!!!!

The warmth in the way we were greeted as we walked in immediately set the tone of our date night. The decor is fun, artsy, and intimate- and all of that before we even cracked open the menu.Every bite was amazing, every sip was incredible. I can't even decide on a favorite dish- the entire meal was just divine. We were already discussing what to get next time we come before we'd ever left the table! And the chef, Luke, came over to chat and was so so kind. Cannot WAIT to come back again soon and try more- I don't think you can go wrong here!!!

Intimate restaurant with amazing customer service and outstanding food!! We were greeted with smiles and everyone was so kind a personable. The food was sooooo good! I'm not sure I can really articulate how good it was - but you can tell that Chef Luke's passion for cooking comes through in the dishes he serves. The braised short rib pasta was *chef's kiss*. Handmade pasta, perfectly al dente and the short rib was melt-in-your-mouth! The lamb chops (which, btw, I wouldn't normally eat) were damn good! And the vegetables served with the lamb were flavorful, too! Chef & his wife are the owners and extremely personable. They both visited our table to check on us and chat, which was so nice! I would definitely come back here and you should put this restaurant on your short list of must try places!

Good food. Ok service. We had no prblem getting a last minute 8:30 reservation on a Friday. The place is intimate and well appointed. There was live music. The egg rolls were pretty good ( just slightly salty). The entrees were fresh. The lasagna was good. I had the short rib pasta. The sauce was light and fresh. The beef was likely chuck roast, not short rib based on the texture. Still a worthy dish. My daughter had the ravioli the following night. I'll definitely go again. Good date night place.

6/10DRINKS: This place is beer and wine only! Calling themselves a wine bar, their wine selection was subpar and the menu wasn't up to date. There was one bottle marked by the glass, but was bottle only. Another bottle had been phased out and replaced with something new. If you don't find something you like, you can't switch to a cocktail.FOOD: impeccable! I was pleasantly surprised at how good the food was. The steak was one of the better ones I've had in a while. The corn essence potatoes were so good. Think a very creamy polenta. The pork shop is Rosemary HEAVY! I didn't mind because I like rosemary, but if you don't...order something else.SERVICE: service was good while we were eating. But once we paid, they didn't come back around. We sat for another 20 minutes after dinner, talking. No one came to refill waters. I know we were done spending money, but it's not like they were going to reseat our table. They could have given us water.

This place deserves a Michelin star rating! Feels like you are going to eat at your grandma's house...cozy, the staff welcomed us like we are part of the family and Chef Luke Rogers came to our table and greeted us and it was nice to interact with his wife Geniselys and Rachel our table hostess it was her second day and she had so much knowledge about the dishes that she recommended us a dish that was beyond my husbands expectations. This place is a gem and is very charming nothing inside is fancy but you get the top notch service and personaly crafted dishes! This is the first time in this 20 years of celebrating wedding anniversary at a restaurant we felt like we had a perfect time overall. The experience was memorable there was no leftovers and we will be going back and back to celebrate special date nights.Please keep that homey, charming feeling and can't wait to return to try other dishes!
