They enforce dumb policies, on the initial email, it does not state that you have to be there within a 5 minute window. However, when you receive confirmation they only allow you 5 minutes to return. Spoke to the stupidvisor on site and she reiterated the same policy. read more

The good - immediately next to my gate. Great for my tight connection to grab a quick refresher. The meatballs were very juicy. The not so good - very small. There was a line but it moved quickly, was a full house. Very limited food offerings. Didn't get any drinks. Somehow I lost the photos read more

3/12/26: Pretty good at 6:30am after a red eye flight. The early morning staff are very good, super friendly and most importantly gentle with us zombies on no sleep for over 24 hours. It's a tad crowded. The OJ was excellent and the biscuit and gravy amazing and yet not too heavy. Because of the patient, supportive and friendly staff, this lounge was an A+. Free for Amex Platinum users with a Priority Pass. read more

A pleasant surprise that this is an Amex perk. The place has a small hot food line. While the choices are limited, the high turnover keeps everything fresh. The much better option in my opinion. The staff were pleasant and really on top of things. In a lot of clubs things get a bit unkempt quickly - not here -- good job. read more

Plaza Premium Lounge DFW Terminal E - Breakfast bar - Airport Lounges Near Me - DFW Airport, Texas

It's a bummer there is such a scarcity of lounge in dfw. The line was extremely long and the inside of this lounge is small. It is appreciated they assure there is seating for each person admitted. The options food are quite limited and what was offered when I was there not very appealing or tasty. They are quick to clear off plates but no one offers water or beverages. After waiting in line for so long we had only a few minutes to be inside anyway. Overall, I'd definitely skip this lounge next time I'm in this terminal and just bring my own food or buy food in the terminal. Not recommended. read more

Plaza Premium Lounge DFW Terminal E - Extremely long line - Airport Lounges Near Me - DFW Airport, Texas

The lounge is so small for being in such a huge airport. We had to wait around 10 minutes to get in, the host wasn't that friendly. The seating area is very 'social' as it was crammed up. They offer beer on tap but you can only get Coors Lite and there are a few mixed drinks to chose from. The food choices were okay but tasty. read more

Plaza Premium Lounge DFW Terminal E - Coors light draft NOV2025 - Airport Lounges Near Me - DFW Airport, Texas

Such a small, crowded space. Only a few seats were available when I arrived, and the way the power strip was mounted at my seat kept me from being able to use it at all -- the strip was positioned below the counter but was set inwards, so the edge of the countertop prevented my charging module from plugging in completely. Very few food offerings available. The Bloody Mary was alright, at least. I didn't stay long as the crowds kept rolling in, so I moved to another terminal and another, more spacious lounge facility. read more

As many of the other reviews have mentioned, this is the smallest Plaza Premium Lounge I've been to. Washrooms are not located in the lounge and they gave us a 2 hour limit to stay only. The food itself for breakfast is edible. Boiled eggs, steamed eggs with salsa, croissant and yogurts were fine. The potato frittata and sausages were gross and cold. Maybe if the frittata was warm it would taste better. Not all liquor is included, only tap beer (Coors), wine and well drinks are included. The premium drinks and drip coffee cost extra. Staff are friendly though and no issues at all. read more

It's a bit of a wait to get in because it's quite small but to be honest, it's e best of the 2 Priority Pass access lounges in DFW, iykyk. They have limited food options but everything is really tasty and the staff are so nice! You also get to choose from a list of drinks for the bartender to make or pour and I chose a margarita on the rocks which was tall and potent! In terms of size and options, I can see how it might not work for some but they do really good with the little they have so if I'm in DFW, this is definitely where I would go if I only have Priority Pass and need food and drinks. read more

Located in terminal E- pretty small space but seems to move fairly quickly while I was there. Staff very friendly. Hot food options were limited but pretty good. Was not buffet style, instead someone plates it for you, which I actually prefer for the small space as it keeps it clean and organized. read more

We had to wait a bit for a table of two. There are five lounge chairs, 12 small tables, 3 four-tops, and two bars to sit at, all very tightly crammed into a small space. Then you walk up and order from a small selection of entrees, salads, and soups. Portions are very small. The salad was OK, the soup was great, but the rest of it was mediocre. There's a jar of chocolate chip cookies, a coffee urn, and three typical American beers. Any premium food or beverage is an extra cost. The busboy was efficient. Few of the people are actually eating. Most of them are staring at their devices, thus the waiting line. read more

Okay lounge with okay options but outstanding service. There was a short wait outside to enter the lounge but it moved quickly and I was able to sit at the bar. Bartender was very approachable and the employee serving the food, Tania, was extremely sweet and accommodating. Their service is definitely deserving of 5 stars. The food options however were very limited and nothing to rave about. Drinks were basic and almost all were made using pre-made mixers from the store, so I opted for just some champagne which I have no complaints about. The Italian wrap was good and so was the tomato basil soup. The lounge is very small and didn't smell very pleasant but it was okay and better than other lounges I've visited in the priority pass network (they typically set the bar low) so don't come here with high expectations. Definitely gets the job done for a quick and easy stop before your flight on terminal E. read more

This place is awesome! The food was delicious and I barely had to wait at all. It's so nice when you can get great food without a long wait time. read more

Very small lounge. Very crammed. Cafeteria style where you go to the workers and tell them what you want. No bathrooms. Workers were very attentive though. Food wasn't very special. It gets the job done. Overall, the name of the place is deceptive. I wouldn't run around calling this place "premium". read more

Pretty decent lounge that's hurt by it's lack of seating and at many times, long lines. If you have enough time to wait to get seated, the lounge is at least better than waiting in the terminal. The food options are limited, but I see it as more of a snack than a full meal. With how small the lounge is, there also aren't any restrooms inside and you'll have to use the regular terminal restrooms around, but they will save your seating for your return. Overall a decent enough lounge to check out and wait if the line is not super long, but with how quickly you can get around with the Skylink, you might be better off going to a lounge in a different terminal. read more

Plaza Premium Lounge DFW Terminal E - Airport Lounges Near Me - DFW Airport, Texas

Had to wait a good 15-20 min in line before my dad, bro and I could get into this lounge. The line had about 10 ppl waiting to get in before us The lounge itself is not that big and can fit maybe 20-30 ppl at capacity (and they are ALWAYS at capacity). Once we sat down, we noticed that the line still had roughly 10+ ppl waiting in line again. From an optics standpoint, I don't think the perception of this lounge is that great because the lounge itself doesn't look premium by any means. Passengers standing outside are literally blocking half the walkway to the other gates. Food was ok though. The tomato soup, dare I say, was actually REALLY good LOL. It was super creamy and the tomato flavour was strong. I also asked the bar worker for some chicken from behind the steam table. The chicken was listed as "grilled" but it definitely looked like it had been stewing in a broth of some sort. It didn't look appetizing at all tbh (looked like it had been chewed on) but it was moist at least. The mini brownie bites looked like they were a day old but I tried one and it was chewy and moist so that was playing tricks on my mind too. The bar seating was pretty much full but I looked around and it didn't look like many ppl were drinking. Water, tea and coffee provided at the counter. I filled up a thermos of hot water before we left. Definitely not a "premium" feeling lounge by any measure but the soup 100% was! read more

Tiny "lounge" with minimal seating, no restroom, and a long wait. I did come one time where there were maybe 3-4 people inside, but the staff were super weird about if they could seat the two of us or not (they eventually did after making us wait at the front, not sure why since it was basically empty, and almost no one came for the next hour either). When there is a wait, it goes by pretty quickly because people often walk in, realize how limited the lounge is, then leave after getting like 1 or 2 things. It's not really worth stopping by unless you're just trying to grab a banana/muffin. The food is mediocre at best and you can feel the staff staring at you to leave. If you have access to any nicer lounge (Capital One, Centurion, Admiral's Club), go there instead, even if it means hopping terminals (easy to do with Skylink). read more

First off the wait time was terrible The seating wasn't enough and it felt like I was being watched by the people waiting. The service was okay but I felt like I was being hated for asking for items and asking questions. The food was mediocre at best. And the inside was clean but very small Whcih causes the long wait time. read more

Awful customer service experience. Many flights delayed and cancelled at Dallas international on Mother's Day and while trying to sort out booking for the next flight out was told that they cannot let me in. The lounge was not full, it was the late evening around 10 pm and I explained that I just wanted to sit down and relax after a long day of delayed traveling. I have priority pass and my same day boarding pass. I was told that they couldn't do anything because it was Cancelled flight and I couldn't go in. Very first world problem but if you just don't want to make an exception just say so don't act like it's completely out of your control and you can atleast fake being compassionate instead of showing an attitude. read more

Plaza Premium Lounge DFW Terminal E - Policy - Airport Lounges Near Me - DFW Airport, Texas

Terribly long line with bad attitude staff. Worst airport lounge I have been to. I will never go back.

How on earth does this disaster have 3.5 stars? It's a bunch of crappy broken furniture crammed into what looks like an empty storefront wide open to the concourse. The staff is horrendously unfriendly and when I asked if there was a wait, the man simply said, "just get out for a minute." The food was worse than a cafeteria and the drink selection was abysmal. Never again. read more

This lounge is pretty decent but for an airport of this size, it could be bigger. I tried this place several times that included breakfast, lunch and dinner. Even though the options were limited, the quality of the food and taste were good. The lounge is always busy and don't be surprised to walk in and see a wait time. But once you are seated, it does feel okay. If possible, go all the way to back to get the most relaxing experience. read more

There's nothing particularly premium about this lounge in Terminal E aside from being smaller and less crowded. The space itself is nice, and I arrived around 10:30 a.m. The breakfast looked appealing at first, but when I finally got my plate, the food was cold and a bit hard, as if it had been sitting out for a while. Also worth noting, there's an extra charge for premium liquor. Overall, the food experience was questionable, though the staff were friendly. With a little more attention to the temperature and freshness of the food, this lounge could offer a much better experience. read more

Don't be fooled by the decor. This lounge is poorly managed and the staff is incredibly hostile. They have a 2-hour entry rule that contradicts their own "2-hour stay" sign--once you factor in the waitlist and boarding time, you barely get 40 minutes inside. The "a la carte" dining advertised is a lie; it's just a small buffet with 4 mediocre options and zero table service. To make matters worse, the bathrooms were disgusting, and the family/prayer rooms were locked and restricted to staff. A complete disappointment for a "VIP" space. Save your energy and stay at the gate. read more

Looks nice, but they're the only lounge in DFW with a shower open after 9pm apparently. The problem is there's only one, the waiting list is huge and it costs 30 F'IN DOLLARS for 10 minutes of hot water and some cheap travel body wash. I'd rather just wash my hair in the sink like an animal. Ridiculous. Priority pass lounges have gotten so much worse in the last year. read more

This place is really nothing special when it comes to the lounge network, especially when compared to other lounges in the DFW airport. I was here across the breakfast and lunch hours on a Thursday morning. The lounge was packed with a few open seats. Not enough space for a family to sit together even when empty; there are tables with two or three seats together and then single seats along the back wall. The lounge food here is very basic continental breakfast: saran wrapped bagels, strawberry cream cheese, juices, yogurt, eggs, bacon, turkey sausage, and potatoes. The turkey sausage was exceptionally dry. I did enjoy the latte I ordered at the bar. Service is a bit slow at cleaning tables, so you might sit next to someone's dirty dishes for a while. read more

Pretty good experience but also kind of expensive even for the airport. If ya got the money to blow while you're waiting on a long flight I guess it's worth stopping. There are better places in the airport that are better value so I would just suggest checking those out first maybe read more

A lot smaller than I expected! Kind of cool to see this kind of experience. Very tiny 4 seater bar and maybe 30 seats behind. Tiny selection of prewrapped deli snacks. Great service and I'm happy this evening on this Easter Sunday it is not busy. The bar menu is not really anything to write home about but still nice for no charge. I like this spot. I'm sure when it's busy it can get super crazy. read more

Showed up and we were put on a waitlist, already flew home and it's been hours and we were never taken off, despite being told we were first. If you have an Amex, don't consider going here unless you are let in immediately read more

All in all, this is the basic lounge, but it gets the job done. They have a small buffet of hot food, and it's decent. They have drink offerings (basic beer, wine, bubbles), but they don't really advertise it; additionally, they have a hot coffee machine, but again, it's not really advertised so you need to request. The staff is generally pleasant, but they are very on the whole two-hour limit to the stay; I suppose it's because of the small space, but it's a little ehh if you ask me. I wouldn't pay for this (and am not sure of the price) but am glad to use this from my credit card's Priority Pass benefit when I have a small layover/stay. read more

IMO there is nothing about this place that should allow it to be classified as a premium lounge. It literally looks like a restaurant you can find anywhere in the terminal. I actually passed it up the first time. When I finally found it, there was a line of about 8 people waiting to get inside. The place looked like it would only hold ~30 people comfortably. Most of the people inside had their feet up and didn't look like they were leaving anytime soon. I left and headed over to another lounge in the airport. Complete waste of time coming to see this place. Hard pass! read more

Limited seating available, along with food and drinks as well. The place does look nice with jazz playing overhead and low volume. read more

Yikes. This should not even be classified as a "lounge." This is just a shell of a restaurant with extremely mediocre prepared sandwiches, limited drinks, and terrible seating. If you have more time, I highly suggest going to literally any other lounge at this airport. The American Airlines lounges are decent, Delta is good, Centurion Lounge is great, and Capital One lounge is fantastic. This was one of the worst lounges you could go to, so I didn't even bother sitting down once I saw how crowded and terrible it was. Plus, they don't have any closing door, so it is extremely loud and noisy!! read more

The food was enough to hold us off until we arrive at our next location for dinner. Tania was very professional, understanding, and friendly. It was a bit surprising for such a huge airport for DFW, this small place was no where in proportion needed to serve the size of DFW. All in all, if you do get in and enjoy the small eats, this place met our needs. read more

So this lounge has been repurposed to a premium pass lovely new facility. It's amazing inside being a much larger space with what appears to be some excellent food choices. Unfortunately, I only know this because I requested a tour after putting my name on the wait list. There were literally 4 guests in the entire lounge and 25 on the wait list. When I inquired about the obvious capacity they politely answered that they were hold spots for first class passengers of partner airlines for future arrivals. 1.5 hours later I still was never called for entry. If I was paying for priority pass and it wasn't part of my AmEx deal I would surely cancel. Hope others have better luck! read more

This place lives up to its name. Great food, friendly service, and a modern, elegant ambiance. Too bad this lounge is a little small, so it can take a while to get in. When we visited, food options were pulled chicken, mashed potatoes, wonton soup, wraps, and tomato basil soup. Definitely some of the better lounge food we've had. Drink options were coffee and water, plus a full bar. There's free WiFi but no other regular amenities like restrooms. This lounge accepts Priority Pass and a couple cards from Amex and Capital One. It's open to both departures as well as arrivals. We ate here after our arriving flight but weren't able to make it in before our departing flight since the place was too crowded. My advice is to either budget 20 minutes for waiting, or hit up a bigger or less popular lounge. read more

The lounge is great and convenient. All of the staff are friendly except for Marina. Today, after many years of going to the lounge I was denied a coffee to go. I found it very surprising since they do have coffee cups to go. She was rude and loud in front of other clients. I have seen this behavior before from her towards Josh and Melanie, but Ive never expected this towards a client. I hope this issue gets resolved. thank you read more

Yay! A newer lounge! I had quite the wait for my flight and was excited to try out a new lounge. The Centurion Lounge is full of memories and I wanted to make some new ones elsewhere! I have been to quite a few Plaza Premium's in my day because they are popular in Asia. Looking back I've been to SE Asia twice (so far) this year so I definitely have the brand fresh in my mind. Right away you can see that the little lounge is on brand. It fits in style wise with their other lounges. It is very small but I never felt crowded. People of course were friendly. The chair set ups allow you to be as social as you'd like to be. Had a few nice chats with people but I also got some time to do some work. The food wasn't elite. They do rotate things, but I found that it wasn't anything to get excited over. There was a tomato soup which hit the spot! I got a spicy Bloody Mary and the bartender did a great job! In all a small lounge that doesn't offer the amount of food of the Centurion lounge but is way more chill! Definitely made some new memories and and is 1000000000x better than "The Club" lounge!!! read more
