    Sea Bass
    Zakia W.

    5 stars I had such a lovely experience at Bistro 31! The atmosphere is elegant and upscale, perfect for a date night or a chic lunch with friends. I started with the Caesar salad, which was fresh, crisp, and well-dressed--not too heavy, just right. For my main, I had the sea bass, and it was absolutely divine--perfectly cooked, flaky, and full of flavor. They offer valet parking, which is super convenient, but you can also find parking in the shopping center if you prefer. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and everything about the vibe felt elevated yet comfortable. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a classy dining spot in Dallas! Cost: $$$ Parking: Valet & Self Parking Noise Level: Low

    Cute little spot in Highland Park Village. Had an hour to myself and drove from my hotel for a drink and dessert. Service was excellent and my food was delicious.

    Bistro 31 is located right in the heart of Highland Park Village. It's a small eatery with a lot of natural lighting and a local clientele. We started with the Mediterranean octopus. I had the wild caught salmon which came with asparagus and vegetables. It was quite good. My friend had a Caesar salad and she liked it. It's not a very large restaurant, but it is quite quaint. Service was attentive. Overall, I enjoyed our lunch and would come back again.

    The food, service, and ambience were all fantastic. The services provided by the professional management, Michael, and staff, Stephen, are the main reasons that we keep coming back. The old world elegance is a rare thing, and we value their focus to make sure that everything about the dining experience is excellent. I highly recomend Bistro 31!

    ANTHONY J IS THE BEST. He took care of us the entire time. His energy is just very captivating and it made us have a great time. It was super packed the weekend that we went and he still found time to check on us and make sure we were doing ok. Great service from him. Would definitely go back to see him!

    Tuna Tartare, Grilled Salmon, Olive Oil Cake I had never been to the private room here before this visit, and it was gorgeous! There is a stairway to it on the outside of the restaurant and the room itself is massive and spacious with a full service bar. The food was not up to its usual par, unfortunately, possibly due to how many of us were present. The tuna tartare was very much just okay. The grilled salmon was great and tender. The olive oil cake was pretty good but nothing to write home about

    I attended a bridesmaids luncheon upstairs in the lounge today and it was absolutely perfect. Appetizers were delicious. Drinks were great and lunch was superb. Service was amazing.

    Salmon and Beets!

    Amazing! In Dallas for a few days to visit with my favorite niece and she brought us here! Wow! Definitely a place to see and be seen! Watch out for the Pear Pressure, it's fire!

    Took myself on a lunch date to Bistro 31 June 2024 Monday Reservation made online for 11:45 (12:15, my preferred, wasn't available) Parking: Around 11:45, parking was perfect. Valet is available for the shopping center as well. Around 12:45, parking was still available but it's busier during that time. Staff: Perfect. I thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality. Ambiance: cozy, light chatter, well lit. Accommodations: ladies, they bring you a purse rack for your bag. Food: I am a rigatoni girlie. The server told me to get it with blackened chicken, so I decided to do that for the $9 upcharge. I would explore other options on the menu next time, but 3.9/5. Price: fair for the area. $40 for just the pasta, really. I had water to drink. $10 for the tip. Cute little restaurant- would return.

    Bistro 31 - a beautiful eatery in a beautiful environment! Parking: I guess it depends on the time. We went on a Monday evening via uber and saw about 20% parking capacity available. It is in an outdoor mall of sorts so if you circle around a few times you'll find parking! Drinks: a great wine selection from Europe, California and Australia! Food: we had so many things but not many pictures as we were enjoying g the vibe. The Dover Sole was my favorite. They said it could serve two but it really can't - we had to order another, which wasn't a problem as they had it ready in about 12 minutes. Some had the steak and some had and some had Branzino and some had salmon. Everyone, including myself, raved about the foie gras! We had a variety of desserts that were freshly made and tasted delicious! Service: absolutely excellent service! Our waitress was the best. We said we wanted a candle lit dinner and she delivered by finding us some birthday candles and constantly refreshing the batch when they dwindled. She had an upbeat personality and was super friendly. Atmosphere/vibe: this is certainly in a ritzy part of Dallas so be prepared for that sort of a crowd. It had great indoor and outdoor dining. Apparently they also have a rooftop. Age group: all ages Bathroom: didn't use it! Return: absolutely

    Just ok, food was decent but nothing to rave about and our server was not the friendliest. Free valet parking and outside seating was nice. I do not recommend the lemon ricotta pancakes, tasted like regular pancakes and the burrata and Tono was sent back. Escargot was ok but not as savory as I was hoping for. Outside of the ambiance and outdoor seating this was a miss for us.

    Came here for a girls brunch. Super cute vibe, obviously in a great area. I will say I didn't like how close our table was to the bar and kitchen door. I get it it's a small space but man I felt crammed. The service was great, our waitress was wonderful. The menu is nice and has a lot to offer. Portion to price is normal for that area. If you're a foodie like me your meal will not be cheap. The octopus was cooked perfectly, flavors were decent. Not the best octopus dish I've had, but definitely not bad either. The beet cured salmon bite was nice. But it was literally one bite. The carpaccio was nice as well, still wasn't amazing but definitely good. The steak and eggs special was ehh. I've had a way better steak elsewhere for less money. For being in this area, the aesthetics was fitting, but the food was not super memorable. I love trying new places but this won't be one I go out of my way to come to.

    Shout out to Eric for great service. Galette was yum. Walked in for one to a friendly staff. Great comfy indoor seating on a hot day.

    Is outdoor seating for late lunch/early dinner offered? Any GLUTEN-FREE options?

    I think so and there are gluten free options

    What are their lunch hours?

    This place is located in Highland Park Village. It is a great place to eat after shopping. I really enjoyed the food here. I highly recommend it.

    Bubala Café & Grill - Preston Rd. (Dallas)…read more Without a doubt, the absolute best Russian and Eastern European Cuisine in all of DFW Metroplex‼ I've been here a few times. Here, you're more than a customer. You're treated like family. I've eaten Pelmeni most of my life, but never tasted fried Pelmeni before. Surprisingly they were really good and delicious. Dipping it in Sour Cream made the flavor extra unique and special. Bubala kitchen did a great job preparing them. My friend, Misha and I came here to unwind, relax and enjoy good, Russian and Uzbek cuisine. Here, every table is white cloth with elegant, yet affordable food menu. The space is great for all group sizes. They offer plenty of tables and chairs. On weekends they are usually fully booked. Be sure to call in advance for reservations. Every dish reminds you of simpler times and the food... Cooked to order. Every bite reminds you of home-cooked meals. Some menu items will specify cook time. That is a nice touch of transparency. In most Russian and Eastern European cultures, you don't rush through the cooking process or eating process. You're meant to gather around the table, packed full of meaningful conversation before and during your meal. We ordered, "Boiled and Fried Pelmeni," "Borsch," and "Herring Under Furcoat/ Shuba" (Layers of pickled Herring with onions, beets, potato, carrots, eggs and mayo) Portions were generous. Kiril was our waiter and he did a great job. He was very knowledgeable about the dishes and was helpful in answering any questions we had. They've been open for five years, at least. What is their success secret? "The key to our success is simple: providing quality consistent food that tastes great every time. We pride ourselves on serving our customers delicious genuine dishes from Eastern Europe." (Quote from their website) If you're looking for absolute best Russian and Eastern European dishes, this is the only place to go in all of DFW Metroplex. They do speak English and Russian, for your convenience.

It is BYOB but did not announce this well so we had no wine. Salad was dinner plate size and quite tasty. Does not inform that it is shareable size. Out of stuffed cabbage so ordered chicken kabobs and stroganoff. Chicken overcooked and dry. Stroganoff had no mushrooms, shredded beef and little flavor. Lamb chops were requested medium and came out so well-done, they were difficult to cut with the provided butter knife. When paying bill, was asked how meal was. Provided feedback and service stated "sorry about the chops but glad you enjoyed your meal". Define language barrier between servers and cooks. Nice idea but not for us.

Our group of 6 got there at 5:30, 15 mins early for our reservation, prior to the large crowd about to come in for the concert that night. It took 30 minutes to put 5 martinis on the table. Our food did not come out until 7:30 - almost 2 hours after sitting down. Tables around us were served before we were and finished and left before our food came out. Not once did a manager or our server George come check on us or tell us there was an issue. Every meal that we received was cold, but we had no other choice but to eat it due to how long it took and making it to the concert by 8PM. This was the night of the Andrea Borcelli concert and the restaurant was full. Management should have prepared for a busy night. My party was so excited to eat in the Polar Bear room and head to the concert. How does a Michelin star restaurant let this happen and then force us to pay 20% gratuity? I was a server for 10 years and I would never let this type of experience happen to a party paying $100 a person in food and drinks. This was hands down the worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant. Management - you need to really work on your guest service and experience. Such a disappointment.

My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Monaco is one of the prettiest restaurants in all of DFW. Dark wood and dark blue seating invite you in. The bar is stunning, with back lighting highlighting their drinks. There's also an outdoor seating area, including a wind shield - perfect when the weather is nice. This is a great spot for a weekend date night if you want something outside of Dallas. 1 Star. Service - Everyone was very nice. We were never rushed, all dishes could be customized to order, and I never had to ask for a refill. Nothing but good people here. 1 Star. Food - Let me start by saying presentation matters, and the dishes at Monaco are great for your Instagram or Yelp feed. I started with the roasted oysters. I chose it because the description said the oysters are "topped with bone marrow butter". That, combined with the roasted breadcrumbs, added a nice crunchy and smooth texture to the delicious oysters. For my main, I went with the Salmon St. Harve. This beautiful dish had a perfectly prepared salmon. Soft and flaky, but with a crunch from the skin at the bottom. It was served on top of grilled asparagus and topped with a cream sauce that brought everything together. Delicious. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. It's not a secret that I love Water Street. This is an awesome area in the heart of DFW, and I'm so happy there is an upscale restaurant like Monaco that has amazing food. 1 Star.

The steak fretes was on the small size. I didn't love the sauce on the meat, and the fries were really salty. The greens on the side were also salty - not even a real salad. Just tossed greens. For the price, I expected for the proportions to be a little bit larger or more filling. Though they had a full bar, an extensive cocktail menu, their beer selection draft was especially small.
