I really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately it was a miss…read more I started with the beet carpaccio, which was actually enjoyable. The portion was fair and the ingredients felt fresh. The vinaigrette leaned very citrusy, which overpowered the dish a bit, but I couldn't help thinking that adding some goat cheese would balance it beautifully and elevate the whole plate. Then came the pasta bolognese... and that's where things went downhill fast. The ricotta was completely flavorless, the meat was tough, and overall the dish lacked seasoning. It was honestly one of the most disappointing bolognese dishes I've had. One more thing that really stood out: the interior has carpet flooring. In a food establishment, that feels deeply unhygienic and off-putting. 1/5 stars -- a strong start with the appetizer, but the main course and overall experience completely missed the mark.

Third time here now. Weeknight and had to wait a bit to get seated but it wasn't that completely…read morefull. All the parking garages around were pretty full though! It was SOOOO LOUD though. just so many people and loud. Hard to have a conversation. Got the crab cake salad ($34). The crab cake itself was legit. The salad part was an interesting set up since they just had the crab cake on the side and then the salad on the side. I really liked it! Tried one of the sushi rolls and it was interesting that they added some olive oil and citrus?? when it wasn't specified on the menu at all.. I liked the roll though. It will run you $20+ for one. It's big but I also feel like you would need to order a side if you wanted to make that your main entree. And paying for 2 sushi rolls at that price point is steep. The lobster roll looked good? very saucy though. A lot of the stuff on the menu is market price like the filet, risotto etc.

Pacific Table is a seafood restaurant in Irving-Las Colinas's Water Street development that…read morecontinues to get better with each visit. I continue to be impressed by the service and the food. And when you combine this with the beautiful spring weather in Texas (March), it's one of the best experiences in all of DFW. My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - If you haven't been to Water Street, go now while the weather is nice (March or October). I'm writing this review in March when the Texas weather is beautiful. While the inside of Pacific Table is elegant with blue booths and white tablecloths, the outdoor seating next to Lake Carolyn creates a view that's almost impossible to find in DFW: fine dining by the water. 1 Star. Service - The service is great. Our server was attentive, helpful, and best of all shared the special of the day. I always ask my server because when they recommend an excellent dish, it means the restaurant puts in the effort to enable them. Mission accomplished. 1 Star. Food - I went with Pacific Table's special of the day: blackened redfish with creole sauce and a vegetable. WOW. This dish was a homerun. The fish was tender, well-seasoned, and the sauce added a creamy component that reminded me of the bayou. As a bonus, my sauteed spinach that I chose as my side was equally delicious. If I wasn't dining in public, I would have licked my plate. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. Every time I eat at Pacific Table, I try something new and am pleasantly surprised. The combination of service, specials, and amazing Texas spring weather makes this a repeatable restaurant in my rotation. 1 Star.

My new favorite Tex Mex restaurant. Love the fajitas…read more It was my wife's and my first time here. Kayla gave us fantastic service. Ample seating with festive birthday. The manager also came and gave us free beef fajita samples since he found out it was our first time. The flavor and juiciness of the beef blew me away. My wife and I got queso to compliment the complimentary tortilla chips and salsa and bean dips. I was a big fan of the beans too, didn't think I would be. We ended up getting a trio (beef, chicken, shrimp) fajita 1/2 pound and it was perfect for the 2 of us. You can taste the grilled and charred flavor on the meats. The chicken and shrimp were slightly on the drier side but when combined with the sour cream, beans, guac, cheese, they were perfection. For the two people, the limitation ended up being more the toppings to the fajitas but it was just enough. At about $25 for 2, that was a steal. The queso was about $9. Right before we were about to leave, Kayla recommended the tres leches dessert and you know we had to try it. It was solid. Loved the cream on top. Definitely would come back again!

On our way back from Asia, my husband and I had a stop through the DFW area and immediately decided…read morethat we needed to take advantage of being back near a region that really knows Mexican food. Living in Sioux Falls has many positives, but distinct and deeply flavorful Mexican cuisine is unfortunately still something that's a little harder to come by compared to places like Arizona or Texas. So, we made it a point to stop at Lupe Tortilla while passing through Irving. The first thing we noticed was how packed the restaurant was during lunch. People were pouring in steadily, and the atmosphere had that energetic local favorite feeling where you know people come because they genuinely enjoy the food. Thankfully, the meal itself delivered. Now, was it the absolute best Mexican food I've ever had? No. But it was still leagues beyond most of what we've experienced lately back home in South Dakota. The carne asada especially stood out. The portion was massive, tender, and packed with smoky, savory flavor. You could immediately tell it had actually spent some time on a grill instead of simply being rushed out of a kitchen. We also enjoyed the tacos, enchiladas, and burritos, all of which had that comforting Tex-Mex richness and seasoning that we've really missed. Unfortunately, we were on a fairly tight travel schedule and couldn't linger the way we would have liked. Honestly, this felt like the sort of place where you could easily sit awhile longer, enjoy another drink, sample more dishes, and just soak in the lively atmosphere. Still, even as a quick stop, it was a great experience and a delicious reminder of how much we miss the bold Mexican food culture of the Southwest.

After i parked, had to find my way back to the restaurant through the motel, which was a challenge as well. Then there's no real "front door" at the restaurant, so I was walking in circles for a while. Then found an odd accordion type door that you push in to enter. We were greeted quickly by a very friendly waitress and ordered 2 old fashioneds and beef nachos. The website said the old fashioned is $6, but the menu said $8. Anywho, the nachos came out quickly, but visual appeal clearly wasn't a priority for whoever threw it together. Half the chips were broken, and everything else just looked flopped on top. The drinks came and tasted so weird, and with a cinnamon type aftertaste. I sent mine back, which I have never done before, and my friend was struggling to drink hers, and the waitress recognized this and took hers as well. Ended up with a margarita and Moscow mule, they were just ok. Time was up on the parking so time to go. I don't recommend unfortunately.

After an unexpected three day delay during my trip to Australia, I landed at IHG's newest property…read morein Irvine Texas. Unbeknownst to me, it had only opened a couple of days earlier so I was one of the first guests at their lovely restaurant, Kleo. I had planned on only eating there the first day, as usually hotel restaurants are over-priced and underwhelming. This can absolutely not be said for Kleo. The menu is creative and uncomplicated with just enough options to be interesting without being overwhelming. Many of the items on the menu were vegetarian or able to be adapted to suit, delighting this plant-based foodie! Because the team and menu are so new, the sous-chefs and F&B management were eager for constructive feedback and very receptive to my critique. There was only one dish that required that though and the team comped me for the meal, even though I did not want them to! Everything else was a delicious taste journey with well-balanced texture and flavor in unexpected combinations. The service was exemplary - Fernanda, Elexa and Christian were particularly wonderful and attentive. I would write down everyone's name, but cannot recall them all! I will add descriptions on each of the dishes separately because they were fabulous and creative, inspired by the sous-chef's own family recipes and heritage.

Three times is not always a charm…read more After having a great dinner experience during the first visit, we tried a mid-week happy hour. Even though it was nearly empty, the bartender at the time seemed very uninterested in working. Even the manager who was so friendly the first time, giving us a tour and inviting us back, seemed uninterested in the guests. Thinking it was "just an off night" we tried again. Service by the bartender was much more attentive this time, albeit slow--the kitchen's fault, not hers. While she seemed to not know much about the menu--all questions had the answer of "I'll have to ask the chef"--she was friendly. No more Gigante Bean soup? What?!? That was a main draw! Place was pretty dead. Even though we were not hotel guests and they were aware of that, we were also charged a 20% service charge "for room charges only" that was calculated against full prices, not what was paid for happy hour. Hopefully that went to the bartender since nothing more was added. What started out as a place I was recommending to locals after my first visit, now just feels like any other hotel restaurant / bar where they feel they have a captive audience and don't have to try as hard. Unfortunately, "three strikes you're out"--we will not be returning.

They offered complimentary chips and salsa along with beans. They were not seasoned black beans, so I had to add salsa to make them worth eating.

Shrimp tacos were awesome, and the side of veggies was a great side for a seafood entree. I get tired of just seeing fries. The bar area is a little divey. Average prices, well-made drinks. They have a daily happy hour.
