    When going tk a new restaurant, I always ask what's the best thing in the menu. I was told the crispy loaded potatoes and the seared chicken - so that's what I ordered. Both were so, so delicious! There a hint of heat to the chicken dish so be sure to read the menu description, but it didn't bother me. The interior is wonderful! Walls of windows is always a plus for me. Warm wood with other textures Om the wall to break up the wood being the dominate force. Great lighting to set a fun atmosphere.

    I've been here twice now. Both time have been great! I split the burger with a friend and they cut it in half and served it on two plates. Staff is always really nice.

    It's a good sports bar and grill in Knox/Henderson if you're looking for a cool and laid back place to eat, drink or watch a game. Fish Tacos are mid, spicy chicken sandwich and Carnivore pizza was good. We really enjoyed the Spicy Edamame. Service started off well but towards the end couldn't find our server. Overall a decent place.

    Finding a parking spot was hard during dinner time! The lot was packed and I had to drive through it twice, along with some other cars looking for a spot; but, fortunately someone walked to their car on my second time through so I lucked out with a good spot. I came for an event and so I was seated pretty quickly. But, it took awhile for a server to come by even to offer water; I'm not sure if it's because she was waiting for more people to show up to my table or what, but the hostess noticed and got her to eventually come. The atmosphere was very loud and lively during dinner time. The spacing seemed decent between the tables, so it didn't feel crowded where I was seated. The pork and shrimp dumpling appetizer was tried by our table. I thought that it was tasty. And I decided on the Korean BBQ poke bowl for my entree, which I appreciated.

    After months of anticipation, I finally visited this popular local spot in the Henderson area of Dallas, Texas. With so many glowing videos and reviews online, my expectations were high--though I was prepared for a long wait. Right from the start, there were red flags. There was no hostess at the front, so the bartender had to step out from behind the bar to seat us and hand us menus. Walking in on a Sunday afternoon at 2:00 PM to find the restaurant only about 35% full was not a great sign. Our waitress took a full 23 minutes to even greet our table--we almost walked out. She wasn't busy either; I saw her folding napkins at the bar with the other servers while we waited. When she finally took our drink order, I asked about their well tequila and was surprised to hear they use Toro. Most restaurants (even non-high-end ones) pour something a little better. For food, I ordered the Spicy Chicken Sandwich, which I actually preferred from Chick-fil-A. The Poke Bowl was just okay, but the Carnivore Pizza was by far the best thing we tried. After we finished our food, the waitress immediately asked if we were ready for our bill, like she was eager to close out our tab. We told her no and ended up ordering two more rounds of drinks. If I were the server, I would have been trying to sell more items, not rushing to close the table. In my opinion, if the food isn't outstanding, the price and service need to make up for it. Unfortunately, we didn't find either one worth returning for. It's a great location and potential, but they're missing the mark. Lowering the prices, or is ok on the price but better food for what we order and improving the service, and maybe adding a live DJ for Sunday brunch could help turn things around.

    Best bar/restaurant where the food, drinks, and ambiance are all top notch. Great spot to watch a game or just hang out with friends. It's consistent and the service is typically great. I've tried almost everything on the menu and it's all good - the pizzas, the Caesar, onion rings, the crispy potatoes, yum.

    I have a rule: If you're selling a Modelo draft for $8 dollars, you're not getting a 5-star. Local Public Eatery caters to the "public" of Highland Park and Southern Methodist sorority girls. The cheapest thing on the menu is the $18 chicken sandwich, cocktails start at $16, and the server upsold me ranch by... lying?? "Do you want ranch on the side?" she asked, not telling me it'd be $3 dollar "truffle ranch" when Ranch = Hidden Valley in 99% of America. The food and service was otherwise decent but there's nothing I dislike more than greedy restaurants that take advantage of SMU kids' Dad's wallets at the expense of normal folk (Looking at you too Javier's). Next time I want basic American food I'll go to a basic American place, perhaps where Modelo drafts are priced at an appropriate $5.

    Loved the interior atmosphere which is bright and had nice decor and good TV coverage in the bar. Server was friendly and attentive. However, given the very high reviews, we had high expectations that fell short in the food department. The portions didn't feel like they matched the price as the salad I got wasn't very big compared to salads at other spots in the area. My fiancée got the local burger, and the patties had a notably smaller circumference than the giant bun which he said ruined it a bit as the eating experience and bun to meat ratio was off. We might come back to try the pizzas because they looked really good, but overall we weren't wowed.

    Fully loaded baked potatoes
    Kristy S.

    Excellent service - Brandy was so sweet and totally on it without being obtrusive. The food, not so much. EVERYTHING was WAY overly salted. The Regular Pizza was covered with a thick coating of oil (olive???). It was awful. The fully loaded baked potato appie wasn't my gig, but my friend really liked them. The shrimp dumplings were okay, but honestly Trader Joe's dumplings are far better, and the sauce they were served in was a giant sodium bath. We didn't have any alcoholic beverages (it was a work night)...however the list looked good.

    On the way to the porch, we saw the LPE and stopped there for lunch instead. We ordered two local burgers with the double patty. Substituted cheddar cheese and had the side Caesar salad instead of fries. That was a nice substitute at no extra charge. The patties were made with quality meat. Only disappointment was the patties were small and didn't fill out the bun. The room was loud but bearable. Had large screen TVs for sports viewing and a nice bar area.

    Couscous salad
    Shivani M.

    I was very impressed by the ambiance and dining experience at this new bar! I had passed by many times and decided to come in one day for lunch. I am vegetarian and there were many options for me. I ordered the couscous salad and was shocked by how good it was! Since it is a bar, I had low expectations for the food but this definitely exceeded it! This is a great place to hang out with friends, get a meal, or just grab a drink. I will definitely be coming back for Happy Hour!

    This review is long overdue but hey as long as I get it done…read more We were luckily referred to Harwood Arms by the front desk of our hotel at check-in, which was conveniently within walking distance (~10 mins) and has a kitchen that's open late which was nice after a day of travel, later check-in and being hungry. It was a few days before Thanksgiving, there was a decent crowd in the bar and everyone including the bartender (who's name I now cant remember because I took so long to write this) were all very friendly and helpful. The bar was warm, cozy and decked out in Christmas decor (and cute bathroom wallpaper). Good beer selection, great food (I literally ate the tikka masala twice during our couple day trip) and they were conveniently open on Thanksgiving after the game and a fun shot wheel, which was both fun to partake in and fun to watch others do. We will definitely be back if we find ourselves back in Dallas.

    We found free parking on the street a short distance. As we entered, Jade welcomed us so we sat at…read moreher bar. My daughter and I split Eggs Benedict and a Scottish Egg. It was my 1st Scottish Egg and it was incredibly delicious; so much flavor!! We were celebrating my daughter's birthday so she got a drink with a candle!! There was a Cincinnati Browns game on and a large fan group were cheering on the team so it was a bit loud but fun to watch the excitement. I will definitely be back for another Scottish Egg
