We had an excellent time here celebrating a graduation. Enjoyed the atmosphere, and the service was excellent. Everyone was extremely hospitable. The food is on the high end, but it was expected. Yes, the restaurant no longer spins, which by doing a little research, one can find out before making reservations. I had done my research, so I knew what to expect. Overall, we had a good experience. All the items we ordered were excellent. The mac & cheese waffles are a must! The highlight was dessert! read more

This was a visit we were very excited about. They have a dress code. We proudly dressed in our finest clothes expecting an elegant atmosphere. Some were dressed nicely while others wore jeans skirts with behinds hanging out. The filet was excellent. The mashed potatoes tasted like instant potatoes. We had to wait quite a while for our wines and beers. The wait staff were friendly but not very attentive. The check came and they have 18% gratuity added automatically. I'm sorry, but I'm not paying someone $40 for mediocre service for a little over an hour. I feel like it's turned into a tourist trap. BTW you do not have to pay any suggested gratuity, even when they add it to the check. Plastic place mats No linens on the table. read more

The ambiance was just beautiful, the view overlooking the city was so nice while eating dinner. Our server Edgar was very informative and attentive. He helped us in picking the very best and knew the menu very well. Everything was really good and the presentation was just beautiful! The highlights from our meal definitely were the Tempura Rock Shrimp, Jalapeño Creamed Corn, and High Society cake. I would highly recommend it, especially if celebrating an event! read more

Fabulous ambiance with fantastic food to pair! The staff recommendation for sushi was superb - with a thin radish rim, totally unique! Our waiter, Danny, was a great host and made our experience that much more enjoyable. His pairing recommendations to attentiveness were commendable & I would recommend asking for him! read more

Pros: standout service, great food, killer views Cons: told by friends it is hard to grab a reservation. Booked this reservation for a Saturday night as soon as reservations went live. Whole reunion tower can stand out with its views, Crown Block doesn't solely rely on those. We came early with the intention of grabbing drinks at the bar before dinner to soak up the view. Chef checked on us several times during our bar time tk make sure everything was amazing. He even went over the menu with us in detail while we had our drinks so we knew what we wanted to order before sitting down. The views at sunset were stunning and even the bathrooms were well attended and thoughtful (key for a good restaurant). The entire experience will definitely have me recommending and coming back again! read more

Don't listen to the bad reviews this place is a solid 12/10 spectacular and excellent in every way! I was here yesterday to celebrate my wedding anniversary and from the moment we arrived until the moment we left it was such a fantastic experience! Every single item of food was crafted perfectly, the appetizers were delicious, the steak was superior, the wine was excellent. Our server Sean was so great he had the best suggestions and my water was always refilled by the kind water server. They even surprised us with an anniversary dessert which was such a sweet gesture literally! The whole place has a view and overall we left so happy and full. I would come back here in a heartbeat! read more

Crown Block - Anniversary dessert - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

See all

I want to start by saying Crown Block is Dallas's newest, long-awaited, and much-anticipated restaurant; this restaurant is in Reunion Tower. The views of Dallas and its skyline are amazing! Starting with a personalized birthday card from the restaurant was lovely; at the entrance, I checked in and was greeted with complimentary ranch water and then escorted to the 18th floor via elevator with glass windows to see out on your way up. There is a host stand you will check in with to seat you for your reservation. The views and ambiance are incredible and breathtaking. The food was just delicious!! I ordered their crown block berry and rose. The drinks are incredible .for the food I ordered, their Duroc pork chop, "dry Aged," cavatelli pasta with the three side flight of carrot, cream spinach, and fries. The fries were good with truffle mayo, and the carrots yummy. The food was just delicious!! I sincerely have no complaints at all! My Server looked out for our best interest and helped us through the menu. Every single employee we came across was so polite and appeared very happy. Crown Block made my birthday dinner very special, and we will be returning. read more

I was very excited about our dinner at Crown Block as I had not dined at Reunion Tower for years. This was to be a very special occasion for my family and especially for my daughters. I checked the menu beforehand so I knew to expect a very pricey meal, but I also expected the food to be exceptional in taste and presentation. The first "let down" was that I didn't know beforehand that the restaurant no longer revolved. That is what, in the past, and above all other things, made dining here a real experience to remember! We asked our waiter why the new owners decided to discontinue this feature and was told that they wanted diners' initial view to be of downtown. Whether this is in fact the reason or not, the host/hostess stand does face downtown, ensuring that initial view for everyone whether the restaurant revolved or not. But, once you are seated at your table, only a select few tables will have that "special" view while dining. In the past, everyone had a chance to view 360 degrees around the tower during their meal. But, the restaurant no longer revolves, so enough about that. The food, again quite pricey; with ratings of three to four dollar signs depending on where you searched online, was actually hit or miss. We ordered a few non-alcoholic cocktails, a variety of appetizers to share, meals and sides for the five of us and shared a couple of desserts and our bill was just under a thousand dollars (no wine, no alcohol, shared apps and desserts). BTW, an 18% gratuity is added automatically and bump that up to 20% for groups of 6 or more. But, if you make reservations, they will comp your valet parking - but let you know that the valets work for tips. Back to the food: The non-alcoholic drinks were very good, but everyone agreed the French Kiss was the best (like a really good lemonade!) The Iced Seafood Tower for three was ample, but should have included a whole lobster tail instead of half, and the oysters were the smallest, most bland I've ever had. The Ossetra caviar was questionable only because I'm used to caviar having a "popping" sensation, while this was slimy and bland. The lobster bisque was the worst I've ever had (and I've had canned!) The waiter did me a solid by letting me know the redfish dish was on the small side and "kind of dry" then telling me the branzino was "1000 percent" better. It was great! The lamb was also great! The salmon was really good. The petit filet was reportedly so-so and had an odd smoky flavor from the bacon wrap. My Maine lobster tail "enhancement" was overcooked and dry. The mashed potato side was a hit, while the Brussel Sprouts were not. And so on... For dessert we shared the crème brûlée donut holes (5 pieces buried under a humorous mountain of cotton candy!) and a piece of Society Party Cake, which was a hit but everyone agreed, peppercorns do NOT belong here! Our longest wait was for our coffee after dinner (maybe 10 minutes?) but overall service was great! When I first sat down, I commented that I wanted to return and try the $80/person brunch, but after this meal I have to say I will not be back any time soon. Maybe someone can figure out how to make the restaurant revolve again. Then at least you'd have that! read more

Awesome restaurant. I brought the wife here for her birthday dinner. Great valet parking downstairs. Very welcoming staff there .. long elevator ride up to the top. They had a table for 2 facing toward the window, just where the sun would be setting about and hour later .. beautiful place, great service, every food item we ordered was fabulous, great drinks, and nice birthday dessert. Not cheap, but definitely a "special occasion" place. We witnessed at least 2 marriage proposals there that night .. and the manager gave us a little tour of their wine storage area on the way out. Also, looks like a great Sunday buffet place, still pricey, but looks great .. we need to try that .. read more

Food was delicious. Service was good, not high end 5 star, more playful and personal and fun. Ambiance was incredible. But it still didn't mount to *FIIIIVE HUNDREDDDDD DOLLARRRSSSS!!!* for only two people. Would be 5 stars if bill was $300ish for two people and if we ordered extras but check out that receipt. That's crazy. read more

My friends and I came here and sat in the bar area. We were greeted as soon as we parked our car. The staff especially our server, were great. Our server went over the menu including some of his favorite items. We ordered the onion rings as a starter, which I gave to say I'm not a huge fan of onion rings, but these were a game changer! The pretzel coating was delicious. I highly recommend. I got the filet mignon and my friends ordered the rib cap and sushi. We all enjoyed our dishes. I highly recommend this place for a great night out and we'll definitely be back. read more

Our server was Preston..... I'm in town from San Francisco to visit my friends since I haven't seen them in so long since moving out of TX last year. Everything was good except the treatment we got from Preston our sever and the busser who I never got his name. I asked Preston if that was tofu as "crouton" on our Cesar salad ... as a chef I am genuinely interested in cuisines of all types. His response was "no that's polenta, putting tofu on a Cesar salad just wouldn't make sense" and just the way he said was so condescending. (I guess putting polenta "made sense") Throughout the entire service that was his whole persona...our busser (big guy/hispanic or Latino rolled his eyes when we asked him a question as well. At one point I asked him to please take a pic of us...luckily a manager walked up to ask us how everything is going...so I asked her instead to take a pic. All 3 of us still left a hefty tip for the two even-though they weren't the most friendly. I also left a note on the receipt saying to please be nicer next time and god bless. My food review is under the pictures I wanted to make this post mainly about the service. I hope they treat others better than they did us. This was April 27th Friday night. read more

I was very disappointed to learn this place doesn't spin anymore, but my wife and I decided to visit anyway for our anniversary. I made reservations for 6pm on a Sunday night and we ubered from the Dallas Westin to check it out. The tower was prominent in the skyline from miles away and we finally arrived at its base. We rode the elevator up to the top and enjoyed our complimentary room temperature Ranch Waters served in prepoured plastic cups sitting on a tray in the lobby. The elevator doors opened to the bar area, and a friendly hostess who took us to our seat, which was right by the window as requested. Our table was adorned with an anniversary card signed by the whole staff. We enjoyed the view of the outskirts of Dallas and got to see the many freeways and commercial properties surrounding the Reunion Tower. I think there was a prison down there, too. The view was not beautiful as this part of town is not the prettiest part, but the perspective is pretty cool. My wife and I had been on vacation for three or four days at this point so we were each a little tapped out. We each selected the most inexpensive options on the menu, which were about $30 per plate. I went with the truffle cheeseburger and enjoyed it very much as it was a simple meat, cheese and bun concoction grilled to perfection with good french fries. My better half had the broccoli pasta, which she regretted and remarked was inedible. Eh - you win some and lose some. The desert at the end was pretty good. The staff decorated it with a sparkler and wrote a happy anniversary message in chocolate. It was a good example for what this place is - pretty average food in a very fancy package sold at exuberant prices. Overall the tower is definitely worth a visit, but if I had to guess, there's probably not a lot of regulars here. Once is enough. read more

I was extremely hesitant coming here as I shuffled through a lot of the reviews so I figured after my experience I'd share my thoughts! Really to start off I do think with how expensive this restaurant is they should have more waiting sofas and tables when you're down at the bottom of the sphere waiting to go up. That would really in my opinion up the scale of luxury! Our server Angel was awesome and very attentive! We started with a Cesar and the Crab cake. Crab cake is singular, only 1 but it is a meaty crab cake. Both were really good! We also had the filet minion, the wagyu strip loin, and the cowgirl ribeye. They were all fantastic and cooked to perfection! I will say they undercook slightly so if you go medium rare, expect it to be very red/pink. For the sides we got the Mac n cheese, Yukon mashed potatoes, and the broccolini. The potatoes and mac n cheese were fabulous, very flavorful and enjoyable. The Broccolini was eh in my opinion but we did ask for no red chili pepper flakes so that could have changed it. For dessert we got the cotton candy and the crème brûlée doughnut holes and they were both amazing! All around it's a great place to go but it is wildly expensive. My two critiques would be the price and my steak in specific didn't come out hot but rather warm. But that's really on me for not asking them to heat it up a bit more for me. Would go back! Only on special occasions. ;) read more

Crown Block has the best view of Dallas at night. It was unfortunate to hear that the restaurant no longer rotates though. You are offered complimentary ranch water while you wait for your elevator. We stopped in j5ust got a drink and dessert. I have heard the dinner menu can be a little pricey. All of our drinks and desserts were great and we got amazing service. Definitely an awesome spot to enjoy either before or after dinner with an amazing view! read more

Enjoyed the Sunday Brunch on Christmas Eve. I was hesitant to visit because of some of the mixed reviews, but we had a good experience and I'd recommend trying it. There was a decent brunch selection to choose from. My favorites were the sushi and carving stations. The staff did a great job keeping the items fresh and filled. We got a table by the window with a view of the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge. Cynthia provided solid service. The festive decor and Christmas music helped us get in the holiday spirit. Overall, the brunch was a great way to start our Christmas celebration. read more

I posted a review back in November. I was honest about what my group felt about our experience here. My wife, her brother, his wife and I all decided to celebrate our 1st year anniversary here. Overall, the experience was good. I did say the food was underwhelming and not worth the price. It was not prepared properly for three of us and thats all I said. Overall the experience. Ambiance and service were good. Evidently, someone from the restaurant read the review and reached out to me multiple times to see if I would consider changing it. They offered a "complimentary" discount to come back and give them another opportunity to make it better. I told them that it wasn't necessary and it was okay. They called again asking me to change the review so I said okay and took it off. I did decide to take up their offer and they didn't return my calls or even respond. The Manger, whose name I will not mention, who personally spoke with me never reached out. Hmmm. So I am posting my review again with less respect for them than before. read more

We enjoyed a beautiful brunch recently at Crown Block. First class! It was definitely difficult finding reservations, but worth the view. The food was excellent as well and I appreciate that they have gluten-free options. It is very expensive though!... Which is to be expected for reunion tower. It's the perfect place for a marriage proposal or birthday dinner. Enjoy! read more

Wow! This was such a wonderful experience! We went for Sunday Brunch & it was a whole vibe! Our hostess, Randy, was amazing made our 1st experience at Crown Block very memorable. She was extremely attentive & we gave us outstanding service. The food was absolutely delicious & a HUGE selection! So much that we were not able to try the meat carving station...& that's saying a LOT! We loved the "From the Kitchen" selections: My hubby had the Wagyu sliders which were delish & I had the corn pancake which had my tastebuds dancing! We absolutely loved the view from the top of Reunion Tower! The music could have been a softer vibe but, definitely not a deal-breaker. We will definitely be back. read more

My goal for the year is to eat at every restaurant that showed up on the Michelin list. I regularly eat at some of these, but am on a mission to eat at all of them this year. Just as background, my son is a fine dining chef and I am a foodie and have eaten at numerous high-end and Michelin restaurants in the US and Europe. We decided to go to Crown Block for my youngest son's 25th birthday. Overall, it was an average experience. We were greeted at the elevator by the hostess and a tequila ranch water. Hostess was nice and the ranch water was a nice touch while waiting for the elevator. Once we arrived upstairs we were met by another host and promptly seated. First thing my wife and I noticed was that it no longer rotates. So depending on where you are seated is the view you will get for the evening of downtown. Ours was of Southside Ballroom (was hoping for a better view for such a special ocassion). Additionally, they have hard flooring so it is quite loud in the restaurant. We had a table of 6 at a rectangular table and it was nearly impossible to have a conversation with my son at the opposite end of the table. Also, with a table of 6, we were "a large party" so we had to sign a contract and give them a credit card as we were required to spend a minimum of $750. Now to the drinks. All of drinks were good, but slightly on the expensive. The bar area was nice with a better view of downtown and was comfortable. Now to food: Starters: We started with the tuna and salmon cones (kind of a throwback to French Laundry). They were presented nicely, but the tuna cone was tasteless and I preferred the salmon cone as it was topped with a touch of wasabi which gave it a punch of flavor. We also ordered the Waygu croquettes and our table enjoyed these and actually placed a 2nd order. Appetizers: We had caesar salad, crab cake and bisque. The caesar salad was fresh and of high quality just nothing amazing, but it had homemade croutons. The same can be said for the bisque. The crab cake was one of the better crab cakes I have had in while and would definitely order again. Sides: We shared mashed potatoes, french fries, brussel sprouts, onion rings and mac cheese. Mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts were the best. Mac n' cheese was Mac n' cheese nothing special. The french fries were fine and the onion rings were battered in pretzel batter which can make them appear overcooked (but they were fine). Main courses: My son ordered the hamburger (which they were out of). We had 2 orders of the Green Brick Chicken - both of the ladies enjoyed this, the chicken was tender and the spaetzle was good. I ordered the KC striploin as recommended by the waiter instead of the Waygu. My steak was cooked perfectly, but was not moist and was rather tasteless. The chef ordered the Rib Cap and it again was cooked perfectly and was quite flavorful (best steak of the night). Hamburger boy opted for the Duck Leg Confit and he enjoyed it. As for birthday boy, he ordered the bacon wrapped filet medium rare and it came out blue in the middle, sent it back and still came out undercooked. At this point, he ate the outside areas and took the rest home (disappointing). Dessert: We let the birthday get what he wanted and he ordered the Basque cheesecake. Personally, I have never been a fan of the Basque style cheescake, but it was presented well and was well made. The sparkler was a nice touch for his birthday. We also ordered the Key Lime Pie which was presented nicely, but seemed more like a tart than a slice of pie. However the flavor was good. Service: Service was attentive, but lagged at times. Service was what you would expect at a steakhouse, but not Michelin quality. Overall: It was "ok", but for $1,000+ for 6, I would have expected better food and better overall experience. Not planning on returning. read more

If I could give this ZERO stars I would. So this is the most outrageous booking process ever. I tried to change my reservation from 4 people to 7 people. It would not allow me to do it online so I called. I went through the entire automated process to change the reservation and at the end it told me I had to speak to an employee. I left a voicemail because no one answered . We proceeded to play phone tag for 2 weeks and when I finally got on the phone with said employee, they told me I had to email a manager. By this point, I was incredibly frustrated and asked them why they could not just take down the updated party number and provide it to a manager and they said that for parties 6 and over (mine was 7) they required it to go to a manager. So I emailed the manager and the message I received back was the last straw. The amount of hoops you have to jump through just to make a reservation at this restaurant is asinine. (Picture below for reference) I don't care what restaurant it is, isn't it your prerogative to get customer into your establishment? Much less the fact that this is a high end restaurant that we were planning on spending a good amount of money at. I'd like to note I had already put my credit card down for the first reservation! Ridiculous and we'll take our business somewhere they actually value customer service. Just go somewhere else. I can't imagine what the service is like when the customer service is this bad just trying to book a table. read more

We hadn't been to Reunion Tower in years but went for a birthday celebration. First thing we noticed after being seated was the restaurant doesn't revolve anymore. Bummer. It's one of the reasons we went. Our waiter told us when the new owners bought the restaurant in 2023 they discontinued the revolving feature. Service was very good & it was a nice quiet atmosphere for dinner. Food was okay. We ordered a variety of menu items, sushi, seafood & steak. The sushi was expensive and ordinary. Didn't care for the wedge salad but the Caesar salad was good as was the crab cake. We all ordered steaks. Rib eye cap was good but the filets were tough. For the price it should have melted in our mouths. Sides were good but not fabulous. We had mac and cheese, Brussel sprouts and creamed corn. Very typical high end steakhouse sides & I've definitely had better. Desserts were really good and impressive to look at. Key lime pie was delicious. It was a nice dinner but a really big check at the end that will have us thinking of other options in the future. read more

Best meal of my life!!!! The service, food, ambience, and view are all top tier. Please do yourself a favor and get the Haikaido Scallops and the Australian Wagyu Top Sirloin.

I ordered a $78 Wagyu steak. It was the worst steak I ever had. Tough and Grisley. It came out rare when I asked for medium. When I complained, they took it back and burnt the outside of it and was still too rare in the center. All of the sides came out cold. Chicken appetizer was all Grisley bad pieces of chicken. Great views. Good waiter. But, terrible food. Not worth the price. read more

I, of course, look at reviews, and this is literally a hmmm, will it be worth the money. We showed up 15 minutes prior to our reservation, and they let us know they were working on a table, but we could sit and order a drink. Sitting area, we were given a bar menu, but the waiter never swung back around to take our order. I was wondering if we should go to the bar and order ourselves or if he is returning. Finally I asked and he took our order, another wait and finally our drinks were delivered, as they were ready to seat us late and if you're 16 minutes late your reservationis canceled. ..hmmm wondering about this experience now. We were seated, and Cynthia literally turned the start to this experience around. She was the best, making sure we were taken care of, answering any questions concerning the menu, all the while not bugging us with check ins, she seemed to know when we needed something. The food, drinks, and dessert were GREAT. Don't pass on the desert experience. Ask for Cynthia. She was so good that even my niece, who is 11, tipped her with her own money and thanked her for a wonderful evening. Thank you, Cynthia, for turning an iffy experience into a wonderful evening. And the food was awesome. Don't forget desert...Desert Storm was a show in itself. Wish I had taken more pictures. read more

I'll start off with the views are top tier and the service was really amazing. From the beginning to the end. Someone even checks the restroom before you go in. Very fancy and elegant. Now the food lacks in quality and taste. We had: Lobster bisque 2/10 I've had better at Pappadeaux and Perry's. CB Texas Style Hot Seafood Boil 4/10 the prawns were tough, they wouldn't sub the muscles for more of anything else and they were subpar, the sauce they sit the seafood didn't have any flavor very bland for the price you are paying. Flight of Sides: Roasted Mushrooms 2/10 I love mushrooms but these were not good so upsetting and they were not roasted they just added bread crumbs on top of the mushrooms in the tiniest dish. Asparagus 2/10 again better at any other place except Harper's they compare to each other no flavor nothing. Jalapeño Creamed Corn 8/10 would have been better if they didn't add burnt popcorn as a topping for whatever reason. Cowboy Ribeye 7/10 good quality meat cooked as requested. No issues other than the jam/sauce they added on the side was terrible. Society Party Cake 10/10 although it says chocolate 3x it actually tastes more like the caramel banana which was exactly what I preferred. It was well done and not dry at all. read more

This is an EXPERIENCE. The Crown Block is an amazing restaurant from top to bottom. It is expensive, but you are getting amazing cocktails, food, and WONDERFUL service! This is the place you take someone to celebrate anything on a special occasion! I know there are mixed reviews on this restaurant, but I can say you should at least try this yourself and give it a chance! We were super happy with this meal and now I'm booking it for my birthday dinner! There is a dress code so please go to their website for that! I loved the ambiance of this place and they had beautifully set tables and gorgeous couch chairs! We started off with the table bread, which came with a pimento cheese dip, and a different type of flavored butter. The bread was super soft and tasty. My sister order the mac & cheese waffles, which is an interesting concept. You get waffles that are pressed with mac & cheese noodles and then the cheese sauce is on the side where you can pour over or dip it into. I had the 14 ounce bone-in filet mignon and it was cooked to perfection!!!!! The chutney sauce that came on the side was excellent! My sister had the flat iron steak with shrimp scampi on top and she loved it! We also ordered sushi... it was the shrimp roll and surprisingly it was very good in the whole table had to take a bite out of it! The cocktails were amazing. We ordered the crown BlockBerry cocktail, and it was a great balance of sweet and berry, recommend ordering that first! Now the dessert. What an experience! We ordered the dessert storm for my sister's birthday, and it was fantastic! It had a lot of different types of desserts, where the whole table can take a little bite of everything! I recommend this, if you are in a large group, and you don't know what desserts to get! My mother also ordered the very berry sorbet and wow! This I actually felt like I was eating a whole bowl of berries! The flavor was so pure and had a tart/sweet combo! read more

The food was good. The service was impeccable. The price was unreasonable!! Be careful when ordering cocktails that are not listed on the menu. Two in our party order Cosmopolitans and got sticker shock when the bill arrived and they realized they were charged $38 per drink!! When they inquired they were told when you order specialty drinks you are charged by the liquor. That would have been nice to know before they ordered. The check for 4 people was over $700!! In my opinion, there is no meal worth that regardless of how good it is. It was a fun experience, and like I said the service was excellent. If I went back I would be very cognizant of what cocktails I ordered. The crunch avocado roll was delicious and so were the filets. read more

Came here for Sunday brunch. It's a brunch buffet. There are several food stations to choose from, serving everything from breakfast pastries to sushi and steak. Service was stellar. Ambiance was impressive. The food on the other hand, just okay. For $80 per person, I was expecting to be blown away. I ordered the duck as my main entree, and my date got the chicken and waffles. The duck was a little dry to be honest, and the potatoes and veggies underneath were as well. The mimosa flight is solid. For the luxury vibes, it is worth trying once. However at this price point, the lackluster food doesn't warrant a return visit. read more

Incredible service, excellent food and the ambiance was just lovely. We will be back!

Was very excited to share a special occasion at this somewhat new restaurant in what I consider an iconic Dallas location. We tried to get in when they first opened to no avail, so was glad to finally get to try. We were greeted with a very nice group of folks at the elevator, along with complementary drink. The ride up (and down) is somewhat scenic. Once at the top, you are escorted to the waiting area (there are several). We ordered a drink while waiting. Once our table was ready they came and notified us. I did find it highly unusual that we could not leave until our bar tab was paid up. Any other high end restaurant, they simply transfer your tab or take care of it behind the scenes. Tables are nicely setup. We did have a lovely view of Lew Sterrett detention center ; ). Our server was very friendly and helpful with the menu. We had a somm come to help with a wine selection. He suggested an off menu, which we ultimately went with. We started with the crab cake. It was good, the accompanying salad was very bright. Mains were branzino fish and wagyu strip steak, along with selection of 3 sides of creamed spinach, broccoli and onion rings. The wine was ok, not what I expected at that price point. I have this vintage at home and not to the same level. The fish was very good, tasty, flaky, great dish. The steak on the other hand, not so much. I've had a lot of steaks at some great steak houses in Dallas. The first think they ask you to do is check the doneness of your steak. They didn't do that. A wagyu steak should be very tender and flavorful due to the marbling. Not the case here. I would not recommend this steak. The sides, while tasty, were room temperature. They were served in ceramic ramekins, but not hot. The onion rings were way overcooked, almost burned. The batter was hard and brittle. We were checked on several times during our meal; however, never once did anyone provide wine service. When you purchase a bottle of wine, at any price, refilling your glass, etc comes with it. That didn't happen. Maybe a training thing. A complimentary dessert of cake pops and cookies was provided. A nice touch. However, as we're enjoying the end of our wine, the floor manager takes our check (after it was paid). Another sign that this establishment just hasn't had some simple training or is trying to be something it is not. I was excited when Crown Block came to Dallas. But after experiencing it, I think some work is needed in order to compete with some of the better gastronomic food establishments that are Dallas. I would encourage the management of Crown Block to tour some of Dallas's finer restaurants and take some lessons and incorporate into execution. You shouldn't have to pay $500 (w/tip) for a nice dinner and walk away feeling like you just ate at a 3 star restaurant.

I thought the food would be great because of the Michelin comments and the price. Unfortunately, the food was very average. I had lamb chops. The waitress asked if medium was OK and I said yes. They came out as rare as I have ever seen. My daughter's rib cap steak was excellent. Of course the ambience, his top notch. Of course the prices are also as high as the tower itself. read more

The food is good but I have had better. My lobster was burnt. The ambiance is very loud and noisy so for a quiet romantic evening would not suggest this place. This is located In reunion tower so the view is beautiful and a fun place for a crowd like gathering. The restaurant in the Omni are much better. The best part was our server he was awesome. read more

Expected Excellence. Received Unremarkable. What a complete disappointment! Booked a reservation for early evening at 5:30pm for a "Milestone" Birthday. Requested a table overlooking the DFW skyline hoping to have an unforgettable dinner and experience with my partner. Upon arrival, host proceeded to seat us at a table on the opposite side of the restaurant overlooking the downtown mixmaster. UNACCEPTABLE!! Informed the host, server, and the GM, Ashley Kenkel, that the table was not what was requested. THE RESTAURANT WAS EMPTY! Only one other table sitting to eat "on the good view" side. All refused to re-seat us. As we told the server we were leaving, we noticed all were watching and smirking as we waited for the elevator. Think twice before you choose this supposedly "high end" restaurant for a celebratory dinner. Luckily, we found that Bob's Steakhouse provided us the rememberable event we were seeking. Lesson learned! read more

I had a great experience! The food was good--our favorites were the filet and salmon steak. The sushi was good, not great. I think I'm just used to fake crab that the real thing is kind of meh. Still, it was a nice way to start the meal. We had wonderful service. Nigel was a champ. The place doesn't spin, so if that's your jam you'll be disappointed, Overall, a great meal and the perfect celebration spot! read more

Sadly to say is my second time here and food is very disappointing Tomahawk Steak was undercooked. To rare not medium The porterhouse well under cook also only the flat steak was perfectly cooked. Really nice place to hang around and check out the views Enjoyed a few drinks maybe a few appetizers. But definitely not a steakhouse. read more

View, ambiance and service was wonderful. Food was blah and overpriced. We had the filet, gnocchi, mac & cheese, and brussell sprouts. Only the brussell sprouts had flavor - everything else was meh. read more
