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.

Kids meal came in a fun boat for them. Paid around 90$ Food came out very quickly and the nice woman who took my order was very friendly and recommended the jalapeños Everything was delicious!!! The only "complaint" I have is that the larger fries that came with my fried shrimp, lacked a little flavor BUT that isn't something that couldn't be fixed with sauce/salt. Also when you are done eating, you can feed the fish if you have a few quarters to use on the little dispensing machine. *side note* tables outside can get full of bird droppings so be prepared for that.

Been a loyal customer of Via Real since the early 1990's…read more All of a sudden they decided to charge much more in taxes that I assume must partially be to offset what seemed like a nice "social hour" recently added. When we asked the manager about it, he didn't seem to know they changed this. 10/25/25 was 8.25% tax (including alcohol in the order). All recent bills were anywhere from 13% to 16.5% hidden in the "tax" line, not even itemized. I'm sure because they know most won't realize it. This may explain why on a Friday at 5pm (even with a social hour) the bar was empty except for one other couple. Not going to reduce the stars since I like many of the long-timers that work here, but whoever is running the show now should probably re-examine their decisions. #WWFD

Via Real is an OG Las Colinas spot, family-run for years and it shows in both the food and the…read moreservice. The menu leans Mexican fusion, with standout seafood and steak options across the board. One of my personal favorites is their sea bass special with pineapple reduction. It's beautifully balanced sweet, savory, and rich without being heavy and comes with perfectly cooked charred vegetables on the side. The drinks are excellent, especially the margaritas, which definitely lean on the stronger side, fair warning that one drink can feel like two. Save room for dessert too; they offer a solid selection of cakes and sweets that are a great way to close out the meal. Service is attentive and warm, and they also have private group dining rooms available, making it a great option for corporate events or holiday parties. Valet parking is available, but there's also plenty of convenient parking right next to the restaurant. Overall, Via Real is a reliable, elevated dining experience that still feels welcoming and rooted in tradition, a Las Colinas classic for a reason.

Used to be one of my favorite places to eat until my most recent visit. I brought a friend here for…read morethe first time, and unfortunately the experience was really disappointing. We were seated by one of the male employees and waited about 15 minutes without anyone checking on us or taking our order. I genuinely thought maybe the process had changed and that we were supposed to order at the bar, so I went to the front to ask. Instead of getting help, we were met with rude attitudes and unfriendly looks from the staff. The entire time we were there, we felt ignored and received little to no customer service. It was honestly embarrassing because I had hyped this place up to my friend beforehand. I really used to enjoy coming here, which is why I gave it multiple chances, but the service during this visit completely changed my opinion. Customer service and attitude matter just as much as the food, and unfortunately this experience missed the mark.

Not so much as an acknowledgment from the wait staff of the awkwardness of the situation, and certainly not a substitute. I might have been more charitable if my entree was good, but the haphazard combination of two eggplant Parmesan appetizers into a main was mediocre at best. There is not even an official vegetarian entree on the menu, and the staff seemed genuinely flummoxed by the request. I'm giving 2 stars because, perhaps sensing my displeasure, they made sure to clarify that the peculiar, deconstructed caesar salad had been modified for my needs.

So I am thankful this places closes at 2:30AM!!! I ordered the Combo #2, market price was only $42.99, which came with snowcrab, 2 lbs of crawfish, sausage, potato, corn. That was a pretty good price for a Californian! The crawfish were okay, the sausage was really juicy and I enjoyed. The snow crab smelled like ammonia ong. I didn't expect much but they should really get on that. The sauce was brown and gritty and soo dang salty! This place was 10 minutes from DFW and open late so I got what I got. Strawberry Daiquiri was basically a strawberry syrup slush mocktail. The restaurant was connected to a food court it appears, and is pretty old and casual. The storage freezers were next to the dining tables. Would never come back for sure, but my server was really nice! I was about to order chocolate cake and homegirl advised me not to LOL!
