Excellent Easter late afternoon supper with great friends. Casual elegance atmosphere with super attentive service. Wonderful speciality cocktails. Menu choices covered a range of foods from table appetizers to handhelds to entrees. Wedge salad and lamb rib-lets were wonderful. Great place to go before any downtown show. read more

Food was amazing. We had breakfast several mornings and the service was first class. Elegant. Drinks in the bar in the evening. Great cocktails. Great bartenders. The Coco Verte and the Vesper were dynamite. Wow! And the Club sandwich yummy. All the food we had was delicious. Ambiance is very upscale. We loved our 3 night stay and look forward to our next visit. Great pool area too! read more

Honestly nothing about this place for brunch stuck out, it was good service and the hotel is cute, food was nothing spectacular. Small menu for brunch and it was just okay. I would probably never come here again. No seasoning on the omelette but that's usually normal I guess. Just bland food. read more

Dragonfly - Omelette - New American Near Me - Dallas, Texas

We gave the Dragonfly bar a 4.5 star rating. We only stopped in for drinks, but they were tasty and well made. I ordered an apricot martini, and my partner went with the Wolf Jam. Both were balanced, flavorful, and worth coming back for. The prices were a little elevated for the area, but the quality matched it, and we ended up stopping in twice during our stay. It was a fun spot to unwind, and we would go again. read more

I went here with my boss after a day of work. It was recommended by a coworker. The food was very good and filling. The service was good, nothing to write home about. The atmosphere of the place is kind of confusing. I suppose when I consider it's in a hotel it makes more sense. It just felt very segregated in terms of seating. Would recommend! read more

OMG the food at Hotel Zaza/Dragonfly was delish! Tucked inside this luxurious boutique is a sexy vibe. The beautiful bartender Jessica was delightful and a true mixologist. Not to mention she was also the perfect city guide for recommendations of things to do! The blue crab lemon butter linguine was to die for. Yummmmm. They have a dj on Saturday nights so check them out & have some bites along with dancing all night! This restaurant is #BarbieApproved read more

This place is so freaking good. I got their kale Caesar salad with chicken for my entree and it was truly great. Not sure if it was worth the 25$ but once in a while is okay to splurge. It's inside of a hotel called hotel ZaZa which also lets you face the pretty pool, giving you a nice spot to take pictures in. And to top it off, our waitress was so sweet!! Very cute spot for a girls day out or a nice date night. read more

Caesar Salad, Filet, Cheesecake So this was a stupendously mediocre meal, but it was pharmaceutical sponsored and free, so what can you do. Caesar salad was just alright. Filet was decidedly not medium rare and so meh. Cheesecake was bland too. My friend hated the veggie option. Service was very fast though, I'll give them that read more

This restaurant at Hotel ZaZa (fantastic little boutique hotel) is truly cozy and chic. The prices are up there, the menu is small but balanced, and the vibe is artsy-modern-southwestern with white tablecloths and $20 cocktails. Our service was absolutely stellar (thank you, Ernesto) and the dishes we ordered ranged from good to great. Here's what we had and what I thought about it all: Garlic fries: thinly cut, crispy, garlicky. Some a little more soggy than others but overall very inviting and crunchy, you just wanna grab them all. Deviled egg trio: You get 2 each of these 3 styles: prosciutto, caviar, and "like mama made" which is literally just egg filling with a little paprika. Hahah. But that is like so many moms make... yum. The crispy prosciutto was delicious of course and the caviar made for nice little salty, briney bursts in my mouth. Caesar salad: They gave us gluten free croutons! This is a chopped Caesar salad with plenty of tangy dressing and Parmesan. 6 oz prime filet: cooked perfectly to order with a really nice sear. I love that salt-and-peppery, charred, crisp crust on a filet. Served with asparagus and garlic mashed potatoes. The potatoes were a bit gritty but the asparagus was really flavorful with a great snap. Before leaving we each ordered an iced latte that Ernesto made us himself with oat milk, vanilla, and cinnamon. So good.. I think an iced coffee makes for a perfect dessert. I 100% look forward to returning. The drinks might cost a fortune but I suppose that's just boutique hotel prices in Dallas these days. The food doesn't seem as costly.. think $12 crispy Brussel sprouts, a $17 cheeseburger, $24 crispy buttermilk fried chicken. Next time I'm definitely going for the $24 blue crab and gulf shrimp aguachile ceviche and a $20 espresso martini! read more

Health risk - menu is dangerously mislabeled for gluten free items and staff are not informed about the danger that poses to people with a severe gluten allergy. For example, lamb is labeled GF but is deep fried in a cross contaminated fryer. The server said that the menu's labels do not take cross contamination into account, and restaurant manager said he was told that gluten "burns off" during frying read more

Pretty okay restaurant. Some items definitely seem better priced per portion than others. I understand it is supposed to be a more luxurious restaurant but a lot of it seemed overpriced. Especially the drinks. Old Fashions were $20. read more

Went in expecting to get a girl dinner, as advertised on the website. The waiter told us that no longer had them. Ordered some truffle fries, they were okay but definitely not my favorite for $16. The waiter hardly checked on us and was more focused on his other table or standing at the host table. It took us 30 minutes to get a ticket and we had to flag down a manager because we could not find him. Ambiance was cute however not great service from the waiter. read more

Blackened salmon was great. Salads were not. Cocktails were bad. This is a mid tier restaurant with a good chef and chain restaurant or diner level service. The ticky tacky credit card surcharge on an expensive meal seals the deal as a pass, especially because we weren't paying on a card and couldn't get it waived. One and done as don't recommend. Plenty of better places where the quality meets the price. read more

Eclectic and intimate dining experience inside Hotel! The atmosphere here was unique and elegant. Food was delicious & service was extremely personable. We came for a late lunch and there were very few people there. The volcano salt garlic fries were one of the TOP fries I've ever had. The chicken fried chicken portion was sizable and delicious with their house made honey and ranch. The seared ahi tuna tostadas were warm and cooked on the outside, but cool and uncooked on the inside which gave it an interesting flavor profile. Ambiance: posh & upscale Pictured: -crispy buttermilk-dipped chicken breast -seared ahi tuna tostadas -volcano salt garlic fries -chicken-fried wagyu steak po'boy Price: $$$ Dine in Street parking read more

Where fancy dining meets great customer service. My time at @zazadallas 's Dragonfly Restaurant was nothing short of amazing from our fantastic server who made me an awesome nonalcoholic drink to the delicious food.

my friends and i came here to celebrate my birthday. we had a small mishap with my reservation, but the staff was happy to accommodate my large party, and we enjoyed the evening on a heated patio (LOVE heated patios). the food was good! i don't think i'll be getting the chicken again, but i did try a friend's spare ribs, and those were incredible (tender and flavorful). cocktails were pretty okay, a little expensive, but they are unique and fun to enjoy with friends. the ambiance was very beautiful. the whole evening was intimate, cozy, and delightful. there was even a dj who came later on in the evening, and my friends and i loved what he was spinning that night! server joanne (sorry if i misspelled) was also incredibly attentive and friendly! overall great spot! the price point for things was likely my only complaint! read more

Mmmm lunch at the Dragonfly was delicious! A colleague and I split the filet after stuffing our faces with deviled eggs and truffle fries for starters.

Services was amazing! Deja, hopefully I'm spelling this right, helped our table of 22 with no complaints. She gave great recommendations, got all of our orders right and didn't miss a beat. Lamb lollipops were so good, our table ordered at least 5 plates. The braised short ribs were full of flavor and fall off the bone. I ordered the lobster spaghetti and 10/10. Every one enjoyed their meals. Drinks are about $17-$20 a piece so it can seem pricey but the quality of food and service is worth it. read more

Everything here was mid to average. We had a couple cocktails and they were very underwhelming and overpriced. For appetizer, I had their calamari. They were crispy but not that seasoned to me. Then for an entree I opted for their cheaper handheld options (Chicken sandwich) since I had a feeling it would be disappointing and I was right. It is definitely overpriced from what I got. The amount of protein was very generous but the fried batter on it just fell apart. The sauce was just okay.. I did enjoy the ambiance of the place. Not too loud and nicely decorated and dim lighting. Service was decent. But will not comeback based on the drinks and food. read more

Generally I like to avoid eating where I stay and in this case it was the ZaZa. I think my frame of mind is that the chances of the best places to eat being in the same place where you are staying should be statistically low unless I am looking for that in advance which I never do. In any case, I was impressed with Dragonfly. Would I go out of my way to get here if I wasn't staying at the ZaZa, probably not, but that's just me. Anyway... For a latish breakfast before starting the day with a Super Burrito - fluffy egg, pico de gallo, poblano, refried black beans, tomatillo salsa, panela or a Breakfast Sandwich - brioche bun, scrambled egg, ham, fontina, herb butter with a side of Bacon it worked out extremely well. The portions were large, and the food was tasty. (As a side note the online menu seems to be significantly out of date not showing either of these options on any of the three menus) For a late night meal sharing a WILD MUSHROOM FLATBREAD - RICOTTA | BALSAMIC | SHAVED PARMESAN and the CAESAR - ROMAINE LETTUCE | GRATED PARMESAN | GARLIC BUTTER CROUTONS | CLASSIC CAESAR DRESSING was perfect after being out in the hot Dallas, nearly summer, sun all day. The place itself has a funky vibe like the surrounding hotel. Seating is spacious and service is attentive. The bonus of eating here is people watching the pool which is the view through the windows. Not being from this area and knowing nothing about Dallas this place feels like it is attached to the LA or Vegas scene, so you will be in for some entertainment on that front like people practicing yoga on the pool wall like no one else was around. read more

This is one of our favorite work/ Brunch spot locations The food is always amazing, I'm always greeted by a friendly smile with impeccable service .the staff is extremely accommodating, I love to go for brunch take my laptop and work .. I love the atmosphere. It's very cozy dim lighting, great vibe...and great pool view .. As a vegetarian finding a restaurant that caters to my dietary needs without compromising on taste is very important to me. Rather you're a devoted vegetarian or just seeking a really nice exceptional dining experience. Dragonfly is a must visit destination. It is located at the bottom level of the Zaza hotel in Dallas Texas. Try them out... I have below some of me and my sweetie lite brunch fav's Enjoy ..and Fyi there crispy Brussels sprouts & impossible. Burger is also amazing... once again I thank God I have a great relationship with the gym read more

Came here once for breakfast, and then once for after dinner drinks. Nice experience. The breakfast menu is extremely limited and caters to hotel guests. Service was nice large portions, but very simple, nothing fancy. I did order an omelette, and the chef did a good job and making it for me. The following night we came back to the hotel and hung out here. I just got drinks. I highly recommend the espresso martini and a chai latte martini. Both drinks were phenomenal, super delicious and easy going down. The night scene is very different from the day seen. Lots of gorgeous people hanging out at this bar for late night. It's a very nice lounge with lots of lounge seating. And the music is quiet enough where you could still have a conversation with your friends. I definitely saw a lot of gorgeous people here. Overall, pleasant experience. I didn't try the food but I heard dinner food was fairly mediocre. read more

We just spent $250 for a terrible meal. We ate the steak and fish special. I had one bite of lobster in my entire meal. My steak was well done. I ordered medium rare. The macaroni sat under the warming light too long and the asparagus was over steamed. Our drinks were over served. The service was excellent and atmosphere was engaging. However, we went there for the food! read more

Man I really love this place ! I come here quite often and they never disappoint.. the food is always cooked to nothing less than perfection, it is brought out in a timely manner and plated excellently.. This place is in hotel Zaza and the ambience and setting to the restaurant is amazing.. Imagine walking through an art museum to an amazing restaurant. The server was nice and knowledgeable and she helped me decide what I wanted which was a great choice. The ONLY REASON I didn't give this place 5 starts was because my chicken seemed a lot smaller then it should've been. That was a slight let down I must say... but I'll VERY likely be back read more

I ate at the bar bc I was alone. Great service, great choice of spirits and the food was excellent.

Loved it! I am new to area and we had a wonderful time. The food was so good and the drinks were out of this world.

So at first I was a little skeptical of this place since it's a restaurant in a hotel. But let me tell you, it really blew away my expectations. My colleagues and I have actually come back here twice it's that good. The hits were the lamb lolli pops, the French fries and the pita bread (with hummus). Make sure to order the hummus since the pita bread is very crisp and I would say one of the most memorable parts of this place. read more

First, ask for Juan. Second, ask for Juan. Third,........did you ask for Juan yet? Do it! Hurry!!! This restaurant and bar is attached to the beautiful Hotel Zaza in Dallas and also serves food and drinks to the pool which is right when you go out either door. The server, bartender, and the man Juan gives the best service. He is a true gentleman and treats his guests special! The drinks they serve here are nice and strong. My sister got the Smoke and Mirrors, I got the Oaxacan Yuzu Sour! So yummy and refreshing! One drink will do ya, so why not have two!? They also made me a refreshing bootleg Pina colada that was good and another guest bought my sister and I great lemon drop martinis while we were poolside. Juan will memorize your drinks. The inside of the restaurant is so elegant and relaxing. Come as you are or dress up! Definitely coming back! (The French fries here are good and perfect to eat with your drinks! Yum!) read more

I was a little concerned because no one approached us for more than 10 minutes after we were seated. The restaurant was not busy and they appeared to have plenty of help. Finally someone asked if we were "still doing okay". We smiled and said we were okay, but could use some service. After that, the sevice was great. We both had Manhattans, and they were perfect. We ordered a bunch of appetizers rather than a large plate. The ahi tacos were yummy- very fresh. The meatballs were great- very moist. Brussel sprouts were delicious and I am glad they serve the sauce to the side as it was so-so and would have ruined the dish! The lamb chops.... They were the star of our meal! We ordered them more as an afterthought, but they were so delicious! They were perfectly cooked- I don't know how chef managed it! We highly recommend these! The ambience was quirky but chic. Most folks were dressed business casual. Lots of couples of all ages. This is not a family restaurant and I would not bring children. This is definitely a good date night place. read more

Awesome atmosphere. Tons of opportunities for pictures as well, if you are celebrating a special event. I went for my birthday was thrilled to learn they have free valet. Also if it is your Birthday you receive a complimentary dessert. For dinner I had the red fish which was delicious. The red fish came with spinach and mushrooms, but thankfully I had the option to switch the mushrooms to a different side free of charge. I had the key lime pie for my birthday and it was superb. The only feedback I have is that it seems like our server was swamped, so it would take him some time to come back to our table to check on us. read more
