Unfortunately I don't think I took any photos of the food but everything we ordered was good - lamb lollipops, Ube Nutella Bao, chicken satay skewers... everything was good! 10/10 would recommend but only if you are fortunate enough to be in Abby's section! That'll elevate the experience!

It's been two years since I've been to this place. My friend wanted to celebrate her birthday here…read moreso I gave it another shot. I didn't eat a lot. I just ordered the soup dumplings and I mean it was okay. They weren't hot like it was just made which I was kind of confused. Everyone else raved about their food though so maybe they've gotten better. I told myself I would come back on my own and give it another try. They had a live band, which is always nice. It was a bit too loud, but still a good vibe.

Ritual has been on my to-go list since it opened and when my sister suggested we try Tini Tuesdays…read moreI was happy to oblige. I made reservations for 6:30 and once arrived we were greeted by a very pleasant hostess and sat in a booth as requested. There were a few patrons there so reservations probably weren't needed. However, as we sat more people came in so I'd suggest reservations as it looks like it'll get packed pretty quickly. The interior is absolutely stunning. Dark..moody and warm. Plush seating and dim lighting gives it a speakeasy vibe which we absolutely loved. Our waitress was pleasant and prompt; asking if we had questions about the menu. We opted to try the Tini flight for $9 with a lemon drop, passion fruit and lychee martini. The Tinis were pretty flavorful and were extremely cute. They are small so you'll probably need two flights. However, it's a great way to sample all the flavors. I also tried the Blossom and Bloom which was divine! For food, truffle fries, sliders and popcorn chicken were the choices. The portions were perfect, food was hot and tasty. All in all, Ritual is great spot and I'll definitely be back!

I visited Ritual Dallas for the first time yesterday with a friend and initially enjoyed the…read moreatmosphere. However, our overall experience was disappointing due to several service issues. First, Google indicates that hats and shorts are prohibited, yet we observed multiple guests entering and dining while wearing those exact items. If the dress code is not being enforced, that information should be updated to avoid confusion. Second, the fries I ordered arrived only lukewarm and had to be sent back to be recooked. While the issue was corrected, it was not a great first impression. Most concerning was what happened while we were eating. A waitress approached our table and informed us that a reservation had arrived for our table and that we would need to leave. We were completely taken aback. At no point before being seated were we informed that the table was reserved or that there would be a time limit on our dining experience. Being asked to leave in the middle of our meal was both unprofessional and disrespectful. Unfortunately, this experience left a very negative impression. Between the inconsistent enforcement of policies, the food issue, and the poor handling of table reservations, the service fell far below expectations. As a result, I do not plan to return and felt it was important to share this feedback so improvements can be made for future guests.

We stopped in during the World Cup match because everywhere else nearby was at capacity. A bar…read moretable had just opened up, so we sat down. A server immediately came over and yelled "nice try, get up, I do all the seating around here." Then he sarcastically asked "ever heard of a reservation?" This was the bar area, and we watched people walking in looking for open seats the whole time, so that made no sense. I was so caught off guard that all I said was "oh." He then said "why are you looking at me like that?" I told him "because you didn't have to yell at me." I asked for his name, which apparently set him off further. Instead of just answering, he snapped "I already know what you're going to do" before finally telling me it was Eddie. Then he called me "high maintenance" and said "get out of my bar". The guests around us looked as stunned as we were, including the women waiting behind him to be seated. Before we left, I verified his name with another server, and Eddie yelled at us for doing that, too. Then we walked straight out. I later learned the owner of this bar is named Eddie. If that is who screamed at us, then there is no manager to complain to and no reason to expect anything to change. This was our second visit. The food the first time was honestly bad, but we gave it another chance since everywhere else was full. Now I understand why this place had open tables on a game day. It was also uncomfortably hot inside, the AC did not seem to be working. No customer should be screamed at for sitting at an empty table. We will not be back and I would not send anyone here.

Will definitely be returning to Drake's.

Upon entering you're met with dim lights, deep burgundy leather seats and images of musicians painted in every corner. The restaurant is absolutely stunning! Our table wasn't quite ready so we were asked to wait at the bar for short while. We started the celebration early by ordering a few drinks and by the time they arrived, our table was ready. We were lead to a large half moon shaped booth nestled in the corner; which was large and plush. Plenty of room for us four and honestly at least two more people. On our table was a place card that said Happy Birthday to my partner which was a nice touch. Our waitress arrived and very pleasant and helpful. She asked if we had questions and gave us some highlights of the menu. We ordered another round along with Meatballs Troubadour, the Heavenly Sourdough and Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice. The Heavenly Sourdough and Meatballs Troubadour were absolutely the stars of the show! The meatballs were flavorful and juicy. The marinara sauce paired wonderfully with the sourdough. For entrees, Dry-Aged Delmonico, Pomme Puree, Crispy Brussels, Honey Truffle Chicken and Whole Lobster Spaghetti. All the food was divine! To wrap it all up we of course ordered the 24 layer strawberry cake. The cake was bought out with a candle and 4 glasses of bubbly which was a very nice treat. Drake's met all my expectations and more. A huge thank you to the manager stopping by to make sure all was well throughout our meal. And also our waitress for her professionalism, knowledgeable and all around pleasant vibe. Drake's is now on my love list!

I do appreciate their happy hour, I would've been more disappointed if I had paid full price for some of the stuff. The deviled eggs were too salty and the pimento cheese made them super sharp. The fried green tomatoes were okay but might have been better with something other than green goddess dressing. We also tried the daily pot pie which was green chicken chile or something and it was quite bad. Lastly we got the chicken Caesar sandwich and while the chicken was cooked perfectly, the chipotle Caesar dressing wasn't my favorite. We ate it with a side of ranch and that helped. Would be great if they offered this with classic Caesar dressing as well. I'd be willing to come back to try brunch or something else on the menu but I think the food needs some work.

The limoncello cheesecake martini was an eyecatcher and was delicious. The mocktail Paloma lacked a lot of flavor and didn't have much going on.

The sliders had very dry buns and the burger was very dry as well. The chicken had a tasty aïoli with it that was unexpecting. The overall service and ambience was great.

So, in November of '25 they reopened as The Devonshire Club. Featuring a new menu from consulting chef Jacob Williamson and some great cosmetic changes, the result is the perfect neighborhood spot. It's basically three locations in one. Up front, you enter into a darker, swanky lounge (with a DJ late on Fridays & Saturdays). It's the kind of room you want to sip a whiskey or martini in and close a business deal with a handshake. Or bring that special someone before or after your other plans. But if you pass through the rear arch, you'll find a "Patio Bar" in the back with high ceilings, high-top seating, and French doors opening out to a cozy, intimate patio. And finally--past the darts and a shuffleboard table--you can find the steps that lead to an upstairs clubhouse with a pair of pool tables, Golden Tee, and a third bar. Whether you're looking for a new date spot, a drink after work with some clients, or an all-night hang with your neighbors and friends... look no further.
