The food was great, but I do have one suggestion: adding a wind barrier at the entrance would improve the dining experience. Currently, when patrons enter, a gust of cold air reaches the seating area, which can be quite inconvenient and disruptive. The server was okay, but it was clear she was intoxicated. I had already placed my order, yet she returned 10 minutes later asking, 'Am I going to order something or what?' It was an unprofessional and confusing experience. read more

Unimpressed. I've tried this place on a Sunday and Tuesday. Starting with Tuesday, I came with a local run club. Underprepared is an understatement. It took over 1h 30 min for food to be served. Since they charge you prior to placing your order , you're essentially unable to leave. Thus, we remained. One person did receive their food and it was wrong ( we ate it as we knew it was highly unlikely it would be fixed). When the second place came out the presentation was unbelievable and the food was overcooked. The server was apologetic yet it does not excuse our experience. It's clear they were understaffed both in the kitchen and the floor. To learn they had prior knowledge of our group this was unacceptable. My Sunday prior experience wasn't as bad yet the food wasn't flavorful. As much as I would love to support this restaurant I won't be back intentionally... read more

I only rated this first time experience as a 4 instead of a 5 because there is a vibe/ dress preference for patrons however there was wait staff with her cheeks exposed during our meal under her skort. That may be acceptable Mon-Sat however a Sunday brunch, not so much. Our personal server was Serena. She was pleasant, even tempered and attentive. read more

Came to this place with a friend for Sunday brunch because someone posted on instagram that it was the best brunch they had. LIES!!! Service was bad. Food was basic and I don't have to come back. Gumbo was soooo watery. Drinks were just okay. Hostess was annoying. Waitress was slow. I came. I saw. I can cross this off my list. read more

Getting to the restaurant was a nightmare. There's not even a designated area for uber. We sat at the upstairs bar. The service could have been a bit better. The area wasn't that clean, so that was a little bit of a turn off. I ordered catfish and grits. It was so good! Highly recommend getting that as a brunch option. We also ordered the mimosa bottle, which was a bit over priced. Overall, I did enjoy my food. read more

Excellent service from Mya. I ordered the catfish and grits. It tasted amazing, but the sauce was a little salty. If you're looking g for a turn up brunch, this is the place! Love being able to support black owned businesses! read more

I've been wanting to try this place out for a few months now so there was some anticipation prior to coming. Upon arriving I noticed that there cones in all of the open stalls going up the hill. When I got to the top of the hill, I was notified that it was valet parking only for local tap. Valet is $15 then you follow a path to the entrance. We went on Saturday around 12:15pm and were seated immediately. The vibes and music were great and not super crowded. I went with chicken and waffles and my friend ordered shrimp and grits. The chicken was delicious and had a sweet/spicy flavor. The waffle said it was cinnamon but i didn't taste it and it taste more like wheat. My friend immediately sent her order back as her shrimped seemed uncooked and overall it looked very underwhelming. However, I saw other orders next to me that looked delicious so I wouldn't mind coming back to try something else read more

Brunch with my cousins was excellent. We had a mimosa tower (a lil light on the champagne) but the vibes made up for it. Great music good energy and AMAZING FOOD. I had the catfish n shrimp over savory grits. Not a bite was left read more

Came here for the Friday happy hour, the ambiance was drab. I was not greeted even after being passed by employees several times. Staff seem very low energy, no smiles or greetings.

My colleagues and I were in town and were looking forward to experiencing the food here. Things quickly went south when we waited 18 minutes for a server to come to our table, followed by an hour wait for our beverages and food followed that. When we received our food (pasta dishes) they were drenched in cream with little seasoning. The beverages did not taste good and were not made according to the menu's description. We asked to speak to the manager. The biggest disappointment was the manager (Ishmael) who, although apologized, blamed the food on the kitchen. He stated that the kitchen was a separate entity. He asked us to come online and write an honest review about the KITCHEN in an effort to improve THEIR (the kitchen) services. What is most disappointing is a manager who doesn't seem to be working as a team for the betterment of the establishment. An absolute disappointment. We did not eat the food and left to find another place. Time wasted? 8:28pm-10:08pm Zero stars if I could. Do not recommend! Message: You NEVER throw your team under the bus. The entire night was filled with staff blaming other staff. read more

We had a large party and no one enjoyed their food. The food was over cooked, too salty, grease tastes old, food came out cold. Drinks were good but overall - Terrible experience. read more

Everything was outstanding! I dined with a large group while in town for a wedding, and I have no complaints. The food was delicious--so much so that I couldn't finish it all--and despite how packed the restaurant was for Saturday brunch, our waitress Aisha was wonderful. They also had TVs to accommodate those wanting to watch football. I would definitely return in the future! read more

Visiting Dallas and found the perfect brunch spot. Our sever Denaisha was friendly checked in multiple times and was prompt with our food orders and drinks. ask for her :) the dj played Hip hop and r&b music and created the vibe that we are looking for a weekend brunch. Food was well seasoned and I would recommend the breakfast potatoes and salmon and grits. Food was served hot. 10/10 recommend overall Valet park seems to be the only option No wait to be seated read more

Excellent service and the food was amazing! D had exceptional customer service and made our experience seamless. Can't wait to visit again!

Took an hour to get our oysters. Was told it takes a while to cook oysters. I've been eating chargrilled oysters my whole life. Never in my life has it taken an hour to chargrill 12 oysters. Anyway... got the fried ravioli and it was okay, I don't know if they boiled the noodles long enough because the edges were super crunchy and not in a crunchy fried way. The sauce on them was good but they only put a spoonful on them so they were a bit dry. Then we ordered two glasses of wine that we never got and at the end found out they never had it in the first place. I've been here before and the service is always just kind of a hit or miss. The food as well. read more

The place is a nice vibe. Ashlyn provided good service and the food was alright. I tried the seafood omelet but the eggs were not hitting for me but next time I will try another food selection. Don't let this stop you from coming, its a vibe!!! read more

Had a great experience at Local Tap & Table this morning for their all day brunch on Sunday. This is the best location in the city, it's right off the trail and it's great for people watching from the patio or bumping to music in the main dining area. The food is legit- I had the shrimp and grits, but members of the group had the breakfast bowls, salmon, shrimp, and grits, the chicken and waffles, and French toast breakfast. All out of this world!! With a menu like this you can't go wrong. A couple things: valet is $20 because of the limited parking (mixed use commercial space). I recommend getting there early (10:45) to secure parking. This is definitely a fun vibe for brunch, I brought the kids and they loved the food, but it's definitely more for adults. Great place to check out the games, lots of TVs, two levels AND a patio. I'll definitely be back . Pinky our server was attentive and made sure the kids were happy read more

All I need to say is roaches are heavily present at this location. They need to invest in pest control. Absolutely disgusting and even though the food was good my first time here, I won't be back until the problem is resolved. Mya B was a great server though. Like literally killed a huge flying roach inside the restaurant with a mop sign. I was appalled. read more

A friend had a belated birthday dinner last night, and she had it at Local Tap & Table. The restaurant is attached to an apartment complex, and as a tip: you can either park at the bottom of the hill for free and walk up the hill or drive up the hill and pay for valet (I think everyone else paid $10 but I've read it can be $20). I decided to park down the hill for free. Got here at 8:30 and it was not so lit anymore (I'd say about 1/4 of the restaurant was filled) which is fine with me. The inside was clean, and I liked the high tables although I wish there was more room to sit up top. Our waitress was attentive and really honest. I appreciated that because she recommended anything fried or with rice. With that in mind, I knew exactly what I wanted to order. I ordered the HennyBerry Lemonade which is strawberry lemonade and Hennessy. It was really good! It was more on the sweet side which was good because I had to work the following morning. For the food, I got the fish and fries (was going to get the pasta until she said it wasn't a good idea). I'm glad I listened! The fish was great! It was perfectly seasoned and crispy which I loved. The fries were great and also perfectly crispy and seasoned well. I loved how much honey mustard I got! Definitely didn't need another one. The hot sauce tasted more like buffalo sauce, but I thought it was good. I didn't expect much from this place (was just thinking the drinks would be decent and the food subpar and forgettable), but I was pleasantly surprised at how good everything was, especially the food! I don't really have any complaints. Even the music played wasn't loud enough to overshadow conversations. This place is close by my apartment, so if I do want some good fish and not drive too far to get it, I'll keep this place in mind! read more

Sunday Funday is nothing without this place! Y'all, when I tell you I had so much fun at this brunch, it's so crazy. So first, they don't do reservations, so if you're a late brunch girly, you will be waiting in line. I am not one of those people so me and the hubs got there around 11:30am when they first opened. There were still tables open and no one at the bar. We decided to sit at the bar and it was the best decision ever! The music wasn't too loud but just the right vibe. The food was good and our bartender was rolling with the drinks!!! So much fun, I would recommend. read more

I attended Local Tap for a graduation and was excited after checking out their dress code and TikTok clips , I expected a stylish spot with a good vibe. I dressed up, but when I arrived, I felt completely out of place seeing people in yoga wear while my group was dressed up to enjoy a nice dining experience. My purse was checked for a firearm (which is fine, this is Texas), but that plus the overall mismatch in vibe was already disappointing. Food-wise, some dishes took way too long. My sister and I ordered oysters as an appetizer , but our dinner entrees came out first, and by the time the oysters arrived, we had basically finished eating. When we asked to cancel them, we were told they were "already being cooked." When they finally came, they were gritty, poorly prepared, and had no lemons. Definitely not up to par for seafood lovers. The location is nice and convenient for me, but I wouldn't return. Some places I'd give a second chance , Local Tap is not one of them. One and done. read more

I came here this past Saturday with my boyfriend and two other friends for brunch. There was a 40 min wait, but the music was a vibe so we decided to stay. Once we were seated, our waiter came over and we began to order. The brunch menu is limited, so we went w the lamb chops and an egg scramble. While ordering we noticed our waiter giving my boyfriend some weird eye contact. Like we're all talking to you and ordering, but you're only looking and smiling directly at him. That's very impolite. As a waitress serving couples, you should always be just as attentive to the lady as you are w the man, as to not misrepresent your intentions. Furthermore, I control the tips that come outta them pockets boo. You would be smart to show some respect so you walk away w something. Anyway, we don't make a big deal out of it. We proceed w our meal and wrap up to leave. Now HERE is where things took a serious turn for me. Before my group left, my boyfriend and I both went to the restroom. I later found out that our waiter followed my boyfriend into the men's restroom and told him that she was just making sure we didn't go in together or that we didn't go in the wrong ones. I'm not sure what kind of people you think we are, or what experiences this establishment has had in the past, but I am completely disgusted at the assumption that me and my man would EVER get intimate in a restroom in the middle of brunch. Moreover, I'm outraged at the manner in which she chose to confirm that we weren't in the restroom together. If she was genuinely concerned, the appropriate thing to do would have been to find a male employee and have him check, or come in the women's restroom and find me. Intruding on my boyfriend while he is in the restroom, w his business out, is not only unprofessional, but distasteful. Have some respect for the privacy of your patrons, as well as a little bit for yourself, because it's giving weird thirsty loser. That interaction made my boyfriend very uncomfortable. He knows I don't play like that at all, and if I had been aware before we left, I would've made it a point to speak to a manager. No way y'all should have someone like this at the front of the house. If you're w your man or on a date in general, don't come here. The waitresses are desperate and trashy. I have no idea what the girls name is, but for reference, the photo attached shows where we were seated read more

I hate to leave a bad review, but I want to be very honest so that other people are not spending their money on places that are not worth it... the food was very very bad, and that's me being kind. The service was okay. Our server was nice, she had a bubbly personality and I can't blame the bad food on her. They gave us plastic cutlery (the to go ones with a little napkin and our cocktails were served in plastic) This was surprising given the fact this is not a food truck, but an actual restaurant. I ordered lamb and the MSP was $40. There was no gravy or anything and the mashed potatoes were so dry and undercooked, which was also a first. I'm really shocked that this restaurant is still open if this is the caliber of food. All three of us at the table were mortified. The gumbo was watery and the angel hair was overcooked. read more

Found this place on IG which was hyped up as one of the best brunch places in Dallas. As per suggestion, I took a ride share which was a great idea due to the limited parking on a weekend. Upon arrival (about 1230), we were seated promptly. The place was not too busy at this time. Our waitress didn't come by for about 10 minutes. When she finally arrived, & took our drink order that took about 10 minutes. We ordered our food which took longer than expected. I saw that the table behind us who were seated after us received their food long before our food came out. I ordered the French toast with egg & bacon. For the $$, not really worth it. My friend ordered the scramble & a waffle. Meh! TBH, I'm not sure I'll go back for brunch again. I may give it a second chance because i want to try the dirty rice. But, since they don't serve it at brunch, it'll have to be a non-brunch time. I'm giving them a 3 due to the slow service & over priced menu. Also, they do state on their website that a 20% gratuity is automatically added. Just FYI!!! read more

Super over priced. Had to pay $15 to park. my bill for 2 people was $110 . they charged an extra fee to turn my drink into a margaRita (which is on their menu) 1st and last time read more

The seafood cakes were too yummy! And, the cocktails were on point. Good playlist too...

This was an experience. $15 to park. Once in the building they check your bag. We're seated right away, but our waitress took at least 15 minutes to get to us. I requested no ice in my water but ice was in the cup. We decided to order quickly as our drinks were not ready by the second time she visited our table. with that said, our drinks didn't come until after we got our food. The food could have been great but it was dry and somewhat warm. The seafood omelet was huge but not much seafood. The four shrimp varied in size and so did the potatoes, they were overcooked and looked to be old like they had been sitting. This was disappointing being that no matter what, the waitress is getting 20% no matter how many times she checked on us or gave us what we desired. This place is very loud with a dj and dancing for birthdays. I really want to give this place another chance but this first impression isn't helping. read more
