I love the concept of a Revolving Kitchen where there are a lot of options for people to choose from because there is something for everyone! Ambiance: The restaurant was large, and can sit parties anywhere from 1-8+. Service: You place your order at the kiosk and you wait for your food to come out. Food: I've been here a few times, and it's truly a hit or miss depending on the restaurant you choose. I didn't enjoy the tacos that I had recently because it tasted bland and not fresh (microwaved). However, the last time I came here, I ordered coffee and some fried chicken and they were great! read more

Revolving Kitchen - Chicken tacos - Japanese Near Me - Fairview, Texas

We live right by the Revolving Kitchen and sometimes stop by to see what's new - and we were so glad to have stopped by today! Seems like the Kitchen is adding new restaurants to the roster! Bowl & Bao seems new to the roster but man.. the food? Easy 10/10. Big back activities here, but we wanted to try the noodle dishes and the rice dishes. Ordered the chicken "mega drum" bowl, pork belly bowl, creamy bbq sausage spaghetti, and street-style savory spaghetti. My favorite was the chicken, it was FRESH out the kitchen. I'm talking CRISPY skin but juicy meat - like wow. Definitely took leftovers home and am so excited to have it again as leftovers. We even got to speak to the owner Andy for a bit who was so nice and welcoming. We will definitely be back again to try more menu items! Fun fact: Bowl & Bao, Fry Buns and Waddle Tea are owned by the same owner :) read more

I went to this kitchen concept for the first time on Saturday, 5/16. We ordered food (takeout) from the kiosk from What's Cluckin. I ordered a breast and wing and fries (picture attached). I guess I must have hit the wrong thing in error, because I had 2 wings when I got home. I ate the breast that night and planned to eat the wings on Sunday evening. My sons got chicken wings with fries (no pictures). They said they were OK. My breast and fries were good = lots of fries which is great! We decided to go back on Sunday, 5/17 and just get wings to go with some fried rice my husband brought back from a trip to St. Louis, MO. Things didn't go the way we hoped! The kiosk is not designed to indicate multiple sauces/seasoning (I actually would prefer to deal with a "live" person quite honestly). Therefore, we discussed with the cashier that we wanted 1/2 Chicago Mild Sauce and 1/2 Lemon Pepper Seasoning. What we got is the picture below plus some mini plastic ctrs with lemon pepper seasoning = very disappointing! It appears they don't either know how to cook the chicken wings "in" the seasoning and sauce or choose not to cook the wings "in" the seasoning and sauces - so we won't be back and order that again = will try something else. Overall, the chicken wings just weren't that good = need to cook a little longer for that true crispy texture. But the highlight of the visit was the pound cake. It was DEEEEELICIOUS!!! We will go back to this place and try another restaurant - there are PLENTY! read more

The concept of revolving kitchen with multiple restaurants and cafes inside is so cool. I went here to try out La Maison Bleue, and I got the Sakura Cream matcha which was pretty good. I also tried out a restaurant named Fry Buns and I got the cheeseburger fried buns. The buns were so good and piping hot, but it didn't really taste like hamburgers. The garlic sauce they gave us was so good though. Overall, this was a great experience and you should give this area a try! read more

Revolving Kitchen - Norma's Cafe and Mr Panda Chinese. - Japanese Near Me - Fairview, Texas

The ambience inside is great and they have so many different food options! It's interesting how it's set up and you're able to choose from so many different restaurants within the kitchen. We ordered some drinks that were tasty. The lomo saltado was delicious with the sauce. The honey grilled chicken rice was flavorful, and I loved the veggies, but the rice could have used something with it. The butter masala had a good amount of chicken in it, but it was a bit too sweet for my liking. The regal Pepper fusion burrito was also too sweet for me as it had a good amount of corn and too many bell peppers for me. The service was fantastic and was very friendly and attentive to us. I would come back! read more

I love that this place has so many different smaller local businesses in it! They do have a good variety of foods and indoor and outdoor seating (as well as ability to takeout). It was located right by the hotel we were staying at so we were able to easily walk here and pick it up. They do have a robot cat-like machine that also goes around and helps deliver food if you dine in. We did get frustrated by how touchy the digital screens were in the store to order (made it sort of difficult to order), but you're able to order other ways (such as on your phone) as well, which I'd recommend. Overall, we all really liked our food! Great to be able to go to one place to pick up food for the entire family with different meal preferences. read more

I love the food hall concept. It has a BIG bar in the center and they offer daily specials. The ghost kitchens for small businesses is great. If you can't have your own restaurant at least you can have a mini restaurant. You can order off your phone or they have ordering stations. The staff is very friendly. They provide plates, silverware, water and cups and plenty of condiments for your food. The place is big and the air feels great on a hot day. TV screens with different programming on. They play music and it's a mixed variety. I will be back to try another ghost kitchen. read more

We got bowls and buns and the food was okay. It was a bit soupy than we expected. We got matcha there too and it was okay. The service was good we ordered through a kiosk and they clean up for us.

The future of food halls has entered the chat! When you visit Revolving Kitchen, the best part is you are supporting local small businesses. I personally appreciate the wide array of options to choose from and convenience of ordering it all straight to your table. Great place to gather a group of people who want different things! read more

this is a food hall that you order from the kiosk from all the restaurants and drinks you desire. They'll bring your order to you. They have Normas, a few asian places that I havent tried. I honestly came for Le Maison Bleue for matcha bc I miss them at Legacy. This food hall was really far for me. read more

This hall is order online and someone brings your food out. Not a lot of pictures so I didn't know what to get. Wonder if this is one shop or multiple in the back. When you spend too long trying to figure out an order it might be easier to go somewhere else. I had to walk around to see what people were eating. It was fairly busy. Food was a mix of good to ok. Tacos were ok, Banh mi sandwich was good, French toast was ok. The variety is good. read more

It's a food hall so you should already set your expectations to pay a higher price for the atmosphere and variety, but not the food quality. I'll say that the food isn't bad, not amazing tho, but just isn't worth the price. Revolving Kitchen is a trendy concept where there are many restaurants under one roof plus a bar. Ordering takes place on your phone by QR code, which is pretty normal nowadays. Unfortunately the downside to having 10+ restaurants is that you have 10+ menus to scroll through on your phone. It took us a while to look at them all and then you have to go back to compare, etc. I wish there were physical menus somewhere or just an easier way to go through the options. We ordered a chicken tikka quesadilla, fried okra, sausage pizza, and a Peruvian steak and noodle dish (I forget the name). The quesadilla left a bit to be desired flavor wise, needed the dipping sauces for more Indian flavor. It did come with free ice cream which was random but appreciated lol. I can definitely be bribed with ice cream. The pizza crust was solidly crispy, and stayed crisp throughout the meal, although the cheese was pretty greasy. The Peruvian dish was better than I expected, the creamy noodles with the steak drippings worked pretty well to make a hearty dish. The vibe was pretty low key on a Saturday. Not too busy, music not too loud. We could have a good conversation no problem. Service was friendly and the food came out pretty quick. Also after you order you need to then go back to your phone to close your tab, or else there's an automatic 18% tip added to your order. If you're cool with that then you can just leave but if you want to customize the tip then don't forget to close out your tab. All in all, it's just fine food wise. You're paying mostly for the vibe and variety. If you're into the food hall experience then I'd recommend it, but keep in mind that everything you order would probably be better at a standalone restaurant. But coming here you should already know that. read more

This food hall has a wide variety of restaurant selections and they are all really yummy! We got matcha, Vietnamese food, and even Peruvian food! You would need to order off of the QR code, and then pick up your food once you are called. There is tons of space for seating and it is beautifully decorated! Would come back again read more

FOOD Bleue's Kitchen Geso Kara-Age (Fried Squid Legs): The squid was very crunchy. It tasted good. Light on the batter which was perfect. Sakura Cream Matcha - The cream on top is good and has sort of a cream cheese flavor. The Matcha itself is pretty yummy as well. It is a little bit more watered down, but the drink overall isn't too sweet and definitely one of the better places to get Matcha around the area Shrimp Mentai Pasta - The pasta came out piping hot. There is a bit of a sour flavor to it which makes the dish interesting. Good shrimp portion and the noodles are good texture. Pasta is super creamy and yum! Japanese Basque Cheesecake Vanilla with Honey Graham and Yuzu Jam - The cheesecake is a bit on the sweeter side, but the consistency is very good. It is very creamy and the crust portion is well-made and flavored. There is also a tad of lemon/citrus flavor in the cream on top which adds to the flavor. VIBES The concept is quite nice. You sit anywhere when you come in and there are QR codes on the table that you scan to order. The places is pretty spacious and has a wooden designed interior. A great place to hang out with friends or family! SERVICE Most of it is self service in that you just order and they will bring out your food. The people are really nice and it is relatively quick to get food! Overall satisfied! read more

Great ambience, laidback, wonderful service! Good boba drinks! Definitely coming back to try other things.

A good experience overall, with one big hiccup that was somewhat rectified, though not completely. Located as the main dining option of the Fairview Town Center in Allen, TX, Revolving Kitchen is a cross between a very modern food hall and a large ghost kitchen. I stopped by for lunch on a Wednesday, intending to eat at a specific restaurant, not realizing it was inside a food hall (it was a pleasant surprise). It has a very large indoor dining area, with a mix of tables and a large bar area. It was pretty empty, with probably as many employees as customers, during early lunchtime. Multiple servers stopped in to see if I needed help, none of them were pushy but were instead very pleasant, and confirmed my assumption which was that I needed to either order through the kiosks or through my phone. I found a table, scanned the table's unique QR code, which took me to the gotab.io page (yet another Restaurant Commerce Platform). From there, you create a tab with name, phone, and payment method. Once you are done perusing the menu, you can place items in your cart (mixing and matching from multiple restaurants, along with alcohol from the large visible bar in front). Once you place your order, an authorization is put on your CC. I immediately started to get texts, indicating progress. After 10 minutes, I got a text indicating my order was ready, and saw one waitress coming from the other side towards my area (guessed right that it was for me since there was nobody else sitting near). I kept perusing the menu as I (slowly) ate my first course, and found an appetizer promising large fried squid with only the tentacles. I was sold, and that absolutely deserved a draft beer, so went to the limited draft beer menu and ordered a local Union Bear Blonde Ale ($8 for a pint). Placed the order and decided to close my tab, giving the customary 20% tip. The fried squid came first, and the deliverer answered affirmative to my question: "Beer coming?". So I waited. A couple minutes later (have to admit I was irritated, asking myself "how long to pour a beer when it's this empty?"), the beer came but was only 1/3 full. The server was apologetic and offered to either bring a new glass once the tap was replaced or try another. I chose the former, and started to eat/imbibe. It was very good, so got excited that more beer was coming. Well it never did, and I was not checked on again. I ended up finishing my food slowly (not nearly as good without the beer), and then went to the bar to see what happened before I left (I was dining alone and don't like to leave my table with food if I can help it). The bartender knew about the missing beer, and when I identified myself, started to pour me one. I was unhappy (cause up to this point, I thought that they were just really slow in changing the taps...but now realized that they had just forgotten about me...after I had already paid), and told her: "This isn't good, what happened?". Her answer was "I didn't know which table needed the beer." Huh? She saw that made me really unhappy, and offered to refund me, which I accepted. She apologized and told me to come back and the next beer would be on her. I ended up forgetting my coat (cause who needs a coat in Texas), and a server came chasing after me to return it...that was extremely nice. I still don't understand what happened because everyone seemed really customer-focused and every interaction was pleasant and with no attitude. And she did give me a refund for the beer (1/3 of which I had already drunk....so I GUESS I got a free sample). Even though, the final messaged receipt does give a nice summary of the one total which is what is charged (settled) to the credit card, the pending authorizations continued to remained (assuming they will just drop off after X days). gotab.io should find a way to clean that up in this day and age (where banks now allow 'reverse' authorizations). Keeping these nuisance authorizations holding your credit limit can irritate both the consumer and the CC issuers. I do think Revolving Kitchen does deserve more visits, and the employees do seem to be really trying (multiple ones asked me if I needed anything throughout my stay.. which is why the beer miss was so baffling) The choices are very different than a typical food hall, with cuisines very different from even the ones I've frequented at home. So if there is a cuisine that you have interest (and if your party would love to create their own, unique 3 course meal individually), you should check it out. read more

I really love the concept of the Revolving Kitchen and the menus have a wide range of food across multiple cultures. They have all the ingredients of a home run but every time I pass by, the place is empty and I finally realized why today: they have horrible customer service. I waited 35 minutes in an empty restaurant and STILL didn't receive my food. I ended up getting a refund but it's not about the money. I worked 12 hours today and could have went anywhere for dinner but I chose to try to support the small businesses in this kitchen. That support and respect was not reciprocated. There was no communication beforehand that the food was going take over 45 minutes to be ready in a fast casual dining place that was empty. I left empty handed, hungry, and too exhausted to get food elsewhere. Imagine how long it would take if the place actually had more than 3 customers. I would eat anywhere but here if you are hungry and don't have 45 minutes to wait. read more

I had the good fortune to attend the Revolving Kitchen Chili Cook Off - and it was great! It was also a challenge - when they delivered the first cup of chili (which was excellent), I was thinking I was going to need to order something, until I learned that THERE WERE 16 MORE! A fantastic value at $15 - you got to try all the chili offerings and then throw down on whatever chili you liked (there were even hotdogs for those inclined for a chilidog). The variety and quality of the chili contestants was outstanding. There was spicy chili (several), classic chili, vegan chili -which I put in my top 3 and had a hard time believing that there was no meat - Vegan Heat rocks! I didn't know that chili sample was from them until later - I just thought it tasted great. There was white chili and a rather strange spaghetti "chili" which I could not really appreciate as my sample was cold. There was also chili with Asian flavors. Great music, great food, and great drinks! I look forward to the next Revolving Kitchen Chili Cook Off and you should too. A really good time. read more

Revolving Kitchen - East side of Revolving Kitchen has more seating - near the serve yourself drink station. - Japanese Near Me - Fairview, Texas

New concept that apparently has other yelpers confused. This is a food hall where you order via QR code. If you scan at a table, they (staff and/or a robot that my toddler loved saying hi to) bring it to you. If you order at the kiosk, you pick it up at the pick up station - if you're still confused/upset you either don't pay attention to all the TV/signage or should just eat elsewhere. There were plenty of staff walking around checking up on tables as well. Prices are high but this is common for this type of environment because these are small mom and pops that are testing out their concept. According to the manager the leases can vary from 3, 6, 9, or 12 months. Depending on how well the restaurant does they may be able to get their own brick and motor so this is like an incubator program for budding restaurant owners. We loved the variety from Mexican, Indian, Japanese, Chinese, Peruvian and more. The bar area was stocked and its spacious with plenty of tables with plenty of free parking nearby. It's family friendly and food came out in to-go containers to make things easier. read more

I stopped for takeout but decided to eat there. I felt there was more Asian restaurants than anything to choose from. Hopefully they will have more variety soon. I was met at the door and asked if I needed any help. I ordered from the kiosk at the door since I was going to get it to go. Since I ate it there, they found me at a table. Good memory I guess. I ordered a pepperoni pizza. It had a good flavor but I didn't like the crust. I won't order this again, but eventually I will be back to try another restaurant. read more

It's a little different because you come in and have to know what's up. 1. Step one seat yourself 2. Scan the QR code 3. Order the oxtail or whatever you want 4. Go get a drink at the bar Is it a bit discombobulated? Yes. Is it worth it? Yes! The first time I came I came late because I saw they had oxtails and they tried to do them for me but they just couldn't cuz it was so late. Buuuuut the super awesome guy Jay said come back and I'll make it up to you. So I came back and I'm glad I did. These oxtails were special! They are SMOKED! Which is super rare! If you've never had oxtail they're like beef rib meat with a more complex bone. These were smoked and served with gravy over mashed potatoes. While they are priced at $35 the fact they're a delicacy and they're smoked puts it on par with brisket. And it's served over potatoes. If you and your lady don't have a big back y'all could split it. It's massive! Also try the house Cabernet it's only $6 and it's great. read more

Wife and I checked it out on Father's Day. Nice concept. Immediately met and welcomed by Cindy. She explained what to expect after she asked if we'd been there before.

THIS REVIEW IS FOR EMMY J's PIZZA ONLY This is our second time picking up from Emmy J's. Food is excellent. Service is great. I picked up and drive almost 15 miles with it and it still holds up. One day we'll eat there. I am from NY and can appreciate most pizza, but this really brings me back. The dough is excellent. The ingredients are high-quality. Everybody enjoyed the pizza. The Chicken vodka parm and the Philly cheesesteak were also great. Tallow fries were good and I'm sure they'd be excellent if you don't have to drive 22 minutes with them. Nothing deep-fried holds up to a car ride like that. Oh, make sure when you are ordering you often for their house made Ranch. Top notch. I hope they continue to increase their business. Good pizza is really lacking in the area and they are putting out an excellent product with great ingredients and service. read more

Interesting concept for smaller places to try out their food. You sit down at a table, scan the QR code, and you can place an order with any of the restaurants inside. I don't know if you clean up your own food, I asked and the person said to leave it. The staff there are all very friendly and helpful. The Fish Trap'n catfish nuggets were fine, nothing to write home about. The Cajun fries were good. The food setting was strange though. The nuggets come on top of a to go container and then underneath is another to go container. Not environment friendly at all. The burger place was fine. It was a burger, nothing special. The fries were soggy and tasted like old grease though. We did not like the ordering method. It was cumbersome and Apple Pay / Google Pay was not an option. I asked the manager about it and was told you could order at the kiosk or flag someone down if you needed to use it. My biggest issue with this concept though is how they REQUIRE your data. I shouldn't have to give my phone number and email just to order food. If you care about your personal data at all, I wouldn't go here. The food is overpriced and mediocre at best. read more
