Taboo Lounge

Glad it's back open again! Great place to enjoy a game. The food is pretty good as well. Drinks are not pricey and the service is friendly. Check it out since they changed everything. New concept is better for sure.

Make sure that you call in advance to know what the dress code is. If the bouncer doesn't like you, he won't let you in.

I've been here a few times and never had an issue until tonight. First let me say it always crowded so unless you purchase bottle service be prepared to stand. Tonight I had a few friends come with me and we were trying to get drinks by the bar a lady with glasses and braids acted like we were invisible so I went to a male bartender next to her, about an hour or so later I was standing by the bar and she proceeded to rudely tell me to move out the way so she could serve the men behind me......... I wish she would have had that same attitude when I was trying to get a drink. The place is loud and hot as hell with rude customer service, I don't recommend coming here unless you like being treated like crap!

I visited Taboo for the first and last time last night. I went with two friends to celebrate my birthday and I was extremely disappointed with the service.First, we arrive at 10pm and it's super dead, there are no other customers and we had the the whole place to choose a seat. We came to this place because I wanted to smoke hookah. While getting our drinks we ask about the hookah and we are told it won't be ready for another hour. Since we Uber'd and there are no other bars around we stayed and waited two hours for them to finally be ready. Initially we were told it would be ready within one hour, but we kept getting up to check and we were turned away til midnight when they were finally ready.By midnight the place is full. And when we go to order our hookah the guy asks us where we are sitting and we tell him we are on the patio. He takes our money then tells us we can't sit on the patio with the hookah and we have to find a high top inside or we can stand and they can put it on the counter- no thank you. Because it took so long there were no tables available in side the only other option was to buy a booth for $100.It was extremely frustrating to be the first people there and we told them as soon as we got there we were there for the hookah. No one told us anything about the seating when they saw us get our drinks and sit on the patio knowing we are waiting for hookah. We had never been there and I just moved to Dallas from Vegas so I don't know how it works here. That's where some customer service could have been provided to ensure we can enjoy ourselves in this establishment. A simple heads up to say "the hookahs not ready but you do have to smoke inside so I would recommend sitting at one of the high top or the booths are $100."It was my birthday night and Taboo definitely ruined it by wasting my time. Sat and waited and had multiple overpriced drinks to be disappointed and walking out. We ended up asking for the money and got the heck out of there. BEWARE. This place doesn't have any interest in the customer. They open the doors and take your money with no effort to provide a positive experience. Negative 5 stars would be a more appropriate rating.

Well unfortunately this place will tow you without any signs informing of that. I parked there and went to the building connected to that parking lot but apparently it belongs to this establishment and not to the other. I went for happy hour and was done by 8 and they towed me with ZERO cars in the parking lot. Not busy at all. They just like towing people apparently.

Pretty lame, empty on a Friday night. Zero vibe. If you're down for a drink and a good time I'd suggest going elsewhere

We heard about this place online, well my roommate did, so we decided to drive from Lewisville to go check it out. They advertised $2 tacos and $3 don julio shots. It's in the design district kinda tucked away. Which is okay bc it's easily accessible. They do offer valet parking, but we parked across the street and walked over. Right where we parked there was a cute little photo op so that was fun. Wish I would've thought to take pics and not videos. When you walk up you can tell the place is kinda small, but spacious. There's outside seating and the doors are open. The bar is the first thing you see when walking in. Who doesn't love a good bar lol Taco truck is outside, so I assume it is honestly strictly a hookah lounge and bar. Happy hour was until 9 so it was $2 don julio shots and $20 hookah (possibly $30/$40 when it's not). Turns out the tacos weren't $2 but it's okay bc they were only $3.50 or something each. Yummy and pretty big. They were stingy with the toppings. Might I suggest eating tacos before you start with the shots lol bc ya girl didn't ‍The hookah guys were nice too and walked around checking to make sure people were good on coal. Now the dj! Aside from the interrupting during the songs, was over all amazing! The music was honestly what took everything to the next level! The mix of old school r&b and new rap really tied everything together. Everyone honestly was fun and the crowd was a nice mixture of people and ages! It was a little hot, but that's expected in this Texas heat and doors open. The heat just helps with burning more calories lol so it's all good! We will for sure be back to dance and just have a great time! Next time I'll remember to take pics

Taboo Lounge is simply an awesome place to go hang out with friends and listen to great music! I came here on my most recent trip to Dallas and a friend of mine decided this would be our spot to chill. The cover was minimal for this event, I believe $10 (don't quote me) but it wasn't anything too crazy which was nice. I hate paying covers for bars but when they offer the kind of experience that Taboo Lounge did, then I'm all here for it! Bartenders were awesome! I appreciated the heavy pours of my Tito's Vodka ha-ha and also the great conversation. One of the best things while being out and at the bar is having great service from the bartenders. Mix that with superior customer service and you get a guaranteed GOOD TIME! I will most definitely come back here on my next trip to Dallas!

I really enjoy being a little bit of everywhere, enjoying everyone. Taboo on Saturday nights gives me an opportunity to connect with the African American and Latin community, and I love it. The promoter of Saturday nights at Taboo is one of the nicest guys I've met in Dallas and the Taboo staff are an amazing crew that keep the drinks, smiles and conversations flowing all night. There are a few bars in the area so I suggest Uber or arriving early, because parking is limited. See you at the bar! Xoxo Lorenzo

Definitely a vibe. Love Friday and Saturday nights. Drink services is good. Music is always good.
