    Steak tartare
    Justin P.

    My experience here was excellent from start to finish. I came here with a co-worker and tried several items. Started off with the steak tartare(which was excellent) and washed it down with their old fashioned (not bad; had higher hopes.) For the main course I went with the 16oz strip; I loved it bite and would recommend it. The sides were brussel sprouts (excellent) and truffle fries (very tasty.) For dessert i tried the coconut cream pie (pretty good, but I bet the apple cobbler is more my speed.) The service was very attentive; our waitress was great, and the floor manager checked in on my table TWICE. Valet is free (huge plus) and you should expect to spend $100+ a person (especially if drinks are involved.) This was one of the best restaurants I've been to in Dallas. I highly recommend this spot.

    Vegan options

    Air Land and Sea. This is a steak house but has options for everyone. They have 3 vegan entree options on the menu! I enjoyed the spicy lychee martini, which tastes quite different from the other lychee martinis I've had. It's a hint of spice and sweetness combo and how I would sum up the restaurant "a little something for everyone"

    Al Biernat's North delivered a classic steakhouse experience from start to finish. The location itself is very large and elegant, and the complimentary valet was a great touch that made arrival seamless. Service was truly top notch, attentive and professional without ever feeling overbearing, which is exactly what you want if you're looking for at a place like this. The ambiance is quintessential steakhouse: dark interior, white tablecloths, and an upscale but comfortable vibe that works perfectly for a special occasion or a fancier dinner out. We started with the Tempura Battered Prawns, which came with three impressively large shrimp paired with a tasty teriyaki sauce. A great way to kick things off. Next, we shared Brad's Grilled Pear Salad. Split between two people, it was the perfect portion and a fantastic palate cleanser before the main course; the pears were excellent. For our entrée, we ordered the 10 oz. Filet Mignon, which they kindly split for us at no extra charge. The steak was prepared and hit the spot though it didn't quite knock my socks off. We paired it with sides of mac and cheese and Brussels sprouts. The mac and cheese was good, but not the best I've ever had. The Brussels sprouts, however, were top tier; the sriracha soy glaze really set them apart. Each steak also comes with a small portion of whipped sweet potatoes, which were absolutely delicious. As a sweet potato fan, this may have been my favorite bite on the plate. Since we were celebrating our anniversary, we were treated to our choice of dessert. We went with the Old Fashioned Slice of Chocolate Cake served with a small scoop of ice cream, and it was the perfect way to end the night. Overall, Al Biernat's North is a fantastic choice for a celebratory dinner with excellent service, classic ambiance, and solid food.

    So glad we stopped in for Restaurant Week brunch! We were seated quickly, and Gio took great care of us--friendly and attentive the whole time. Pear Salad (5/5): Light, crisp, and refreshing--perfect for summer. The pears had just the right bite and paired beautifully with the dressing. Chicken Piccata (4/5): A generous portion of juicy chicken with perfectly cooked green beans on the side. The flavor was spot on--I only wished the pasta length was a little longer Huevos Rancheros (5.5/5!!): My boyfriend declared this the best he's ever had. The eggs were cooked perfectly and stayed warm, and the dish came loaded with sliced tenderloin, avocado, and just the right kick of spice. Every bite was satisfying. We left stuffed but are already planning to come back for the Key Lime Pie.

    Delicious food and wonderful service. First time to eat in the second floor dining room and really enjoyed the ambience. Started with the shrimp cocktail. Nice jumbo shrimp but only three for $23 seemed a bit excessive. Unfortunately the shrimp were a bit overcooked as well. Ordered from the upgraded restaurant week menu. Had to ask for the restaurant week menu as it wasn't provided. It seems like they never provide the special menus whether it's their 3 course weekend special or restaurant week special menu unless you specifically asked for it after you've been seated with the normal menu. Just says to me, they don't really want to provide the special deals they offer. We began with the lobster bisque soup of the day. It was honestly kind of disappointing - flour tasting. However, the Seabass and tenderloin were exceptional. For dessert, coconut cream pie, and the Keylime pie were both ok.

    This is a nice restaurant. Valet parking and table cloth dining room. It's a little more on the pricy side, but still reasonable. I came here with some co-workers and everyone enjoyed their meal. The service was extremely efficient and well timed, and the food was filling and delicious. My grilled chicken sandwich was $18 and I was very satisfied eating it. The only reason it gets 4 stars for me is because there was nothing that stood out about it to me. It's a nice restaurant, good food, and good service. But not somewhere I would take someone to show them a taste of Dallas.

    22oz cowboy ribeye with horseradish crust Specialty potatoes
    Shawn A.

    Decided to treat myself to a nice steak dinner at the end of my last business trip to Dallas. Al Biernat's hit the spot. Had the 22oz Cowboy Ribeye with the horseradish crust and creamy horseradish on the side. I did the specialty potatoes as my side. The steak was cooked well but a tad dry for me. The horseradish crust on it though more then made up for it and i ended up really enjoying the steak. I finished my meal with the coconut pie which ended up being my favorite dish of the night. Sat at the bar and the service was quick and attentive. I would definitely consider coming back on my next trip to the area.

    Petite Filet split with a Crab Bernaise sauce

    Looking for a buzzing, elite premium food experience...this is the place. Talk about feeling the warmth and social atmosphere, the manager, James was friendly and super engaging. This is the place you feel welcome no matter what because the staff is top notch. The food, I just can't even. My daughter and I started with the mussels and clams (1st for her) and we loved it. The perfect light, but savory flavor from the sauce made every bite delectable. We went with the special for dinner, petite filet with scallops...oh my deary...the most savory tender steak. I can't even explain. You will not be wanting for more or disappointed with this is restaurant! Now I just need one in NWA.

    Ah yes, Al Berniats North, because what the world really needed was another steakhouse. Historically, Al Berniats North was where carnivores thrived and cholesterol dreams came true. Think prime rib the size of your head, leather booths, and more mahogany than a cigar lounge in 1997. But I had different plans... a seafood tapas spot. Well, plot twist: it worked. We ordered the crab cakes (obligatory), which were so fresh I'm fairly certain one of them had a name. Then came the grilled pear salad because why not put hot fruit on greens? Somehow it was perfect. The green beans arrived crisp and tender. And the horseradish-encrusted fish! Oh, just a delightful little flavor bomb that slapped me with taste and then apologized with a citrus finish. We had Lobster risotto for dessert because that was necessary! Service was alarmingly fast. Like, suspiciously fast. I half expected someone to pop out and say it was a prank show. Water glasses were refilled before they even had a chance to sweat. Napkins refolded mid-bite. I blinked and we were on dessert menus. This spot nailed it!

    Al's Famous Coconut Cream Pie
    Marie N.

    Went to try Al Biernat's through a friend recommendation. The restaurant itself is very nice and service was great. Personally it's more of a date night spot or intimate setting. We ordered the corn and crab chowder and that was amazing, the Caesar salad was ok, and Brussels sprouts were ok too, just normal salads and sprouts. We decided to get the porterhouse with the trio sauce just to try everything. Honestly, we were not fans of the sauces, the best one was probably the peppercorn. The porterhouse was good though, very juicy. We also got the lychee martini, amazing, and the hot toddy, similar to the Starbucks hot medicine ball drink. Overall for a higher end steak house, I kind of expected a little more than just good steaks and meats. The absolute one thing I would come back for is the coconut cream pie. It's similar to eating the Girl Scout cookie somoas. Now that was a 5/5!!

    I wish I could write a better review for Al Biernat's North because I have been to the other location years ago and I remember it fondly. To start, they are valet only, which would be fine if they had sufficient support to get guests in and out. Instead, there was one person running the valet, resulting in waiting outside for 10+ mins to get your car. The food really was mediocre. I liked the bread you get at the start of the meal, but the croissants tasted like Pillsbury. The water was unpleasant. I ordered the fruit plate, which came with mint and yogurt, and it was the highlight of the meal. For my main, I ordered the avocado toast. This was most disappointing, it lacked flavor in a big way, and the poached eggs were undercooked and gave me an upset stomach. I enjoy poached eggs, but these had uncooked egg whites, making the whole dish unpleasant as well. It would have been better with a bit of olive oil or salt on top, but only the salad was edible. We all got desserts, so we tried a large amount on the menu, from the bread pudding to the key lime pie to the chocolate cake to the coconut cream pie, and they were all mediocre. I can't understand how they are all misses! Service was ok but nothing special. The restaurant interior was just ok as well, the loud country music playing didn't really match the atmosphere that well. I was pretty let down and would not return or recommend Al Biernat's to others.

    Simply WOW! My wife and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary at Al Biernat's and they truly pulled out all the stops. When we arrived, Sam immediately wished us "Happy Anniversary" before sitting us at our beautiful table, that was topped with a heart made of rose petals. Our waiter, Matt Fontana, was exceptional from the start and could have not been more attentive or friendly. He made the night truly special and gave us excellent suggestions on one of the best meals of our life. James Gee the manager also checked in on us twice and was kind and warm, ensuring we were having the best night possible. The staff overall made the experience truly unique and memorable. The food was AWESOME! We shared the Tomahawk Steak, which was cooked to perfection, as well as the pear and wedge salads and the delicious Lobster Risotto and Brussel Sprouts. Right when we thought the night couldn't get any better, Matt presented us with complimentary Champagne before we indulged in two scrumptious desserts, the bread pudding and the peanut butter banana cream pie. We tried our best but couldn't finish them both as much as we wanted to. We highly recommend for anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion or just have one of the best meals in Dallas!

    One word ..Whack!!!!! Wow total disappointment, I would have expected more from a high- end steakhouse. They started us off with bread for the table and let me tell you basic and cold, for a steakhouse the bread should be on point. We had two things from the happy hour the ceviche and the burger. I don't know if they are working with 100% lean or bison -- but this burger was so dry , not because it was overcooked but because of the ground beef. Ufffff Ceviche was nothing to rave about, something I could have made at home. And the service , RUNNNN They won't be seeing my face again !

Unfortunately, the service was questionable. Our server had difficulty communicating in English, which led to a costly misunderstanding. When we ordered crab, she never asked what type of crab we wanted and instead assumed king crab, which is significantly more expensive than other options. As a result, our bill was much higher than expected. To make matters worse, a 20% gratuity was automatically added to the bill without it being mentioned to us beforehand. While restaurants may choose to add gratuity in certain situations, customers should be clearly informed so there are no surprises. My advice: enjoy the food, but be very specific when ordering. Confirm exactly what type of crab you're getting, verify the pricing, and check your bill carefully. Also remember that gratuity should be clearly communicated and not assumed. Better communication would have made this a much better overall experience.I'd rate it 2.5 out of 5 stars. Great food, but the service and communication issues took away from the experience.
