Conveniently located roughly 15 mins away from DFW, I chose this place exactly for that reason…read more I was flying home to LAX from Newark and since I have a good friend who lives in Dallas, I booked a flight that gave me a 5 hour layover at DFW so I could have dinner with said friend. DFW is massive. My friend was 30 mins late, but I wasn't trippin. I used that time to charge my phone and get a little work done. We didn't have a resy, but were seated right away. First of all, this place is massive. We both started with the espresso martini before realizing they had a happy hour menu. Our second drink was from the hh menu even though we had no business having a second cocktail. To start, we shared the fried green tomatoes. For whatever reason, we both ended up getting the western burger. Food was great. There was so much of it that I was only able to finish half and ended up taking the rest home. Great service as well. The place was crowded by the time we left. We only planned to stay for 45 minutes, but ended up staying for nearly 2 hours. Big thanks to the bartender. I went back to the airport a little tipsy after 2 drinks.

While in town for work, I came in with a reservation for 3 on a weekday night and this place was…read morePACKED. We had to line up just to get our reserved table on a weekday night. Clearly a popular spot. We shared an appetizer, a steak, sides, and a dessert between us 3. - Fried Tomatoes (appetizer): not bad! Light, not greasy at all, and that savory sauce on top was yummy: - Wagyu Tomahawk: the star of the show. Loved the peppered crust which was full of flavor. Not a true "Japanese wagyu" texture, but still an excellent steak overall. - Sides (mashed potatoes, fries, broccolini, cornbread): All pretty good across the board. I liked the cornbread the most and wished there was more of it. Usually a side of cornbread is much more substantial and comes with honey butter. - Steak sauce: we ask for a side of this. Whatever they had was unique and great. Fruity and tangy, a great complement to the tomahawk. - Pecan Pie: look at the photo! A huge, tall slice. No notes. Loved the dense ice cream on top. Perfect way to end the meal. Overall: no critiques, just an all-around great dinner. Definitely recommend the tomahawk and pie.

Hala shown us great hospitality! Food & drinks were good! Will go back whenever I'm there visiting!read more

We went for Father's Day lunch and had a lovey experience. The staff were lovely and the restaurant…read moreitself was beautiful. My only complaint was the noise level. As most brunch/lunch spots are on Sunday it was hard to hear the others at my table. Food was good too. The deviled eggs were good but didn't stand out, would probably skip next time. We got the black truffle pizza which was great. It was PLENTY of food even split between 2 people. It had a great flavor and the crust was to die for. The omelet was good too. It was the CPT which had a lovely pancetta flavor. By far the BEST part of our meal was dessert. The key lime pie was Incredible. The gram cracker crust was clearly fresh and had lime zest in it. The pie filling was bright, punchy, and deliciously creamy. And to top it all off the toasted meringue was no too sweet and added an extra texture that made this dessert absolutely decadent. The quality and quantity of the food here for the price was fantastic and we will definitely be back. The surrounding area is cute too. Overall a great spot I'd highly recommend.

Overall, a fun spot with solid food, friendly energy, and a dessert that knows exactly how to steal the show.

They have a horseshoe-shaped bar that's great for socializing and soaking in the vibe. The food at every Hudson House location I've been to has always been consistent and delicious, and this location is no different. This time, I ordered the French chicken, and it was just as tasty as always. The chicken was tender, never overcooked, and paired so well with that beautiful lemon beurre blanc sauce. And of course, the martinis--no matter which one you order--always come out ice cold and perfect. Would highly recommend this location for a more relaxed Hudson House experience.

We were able to get a table outside right away though it appeared incredibly packed. The biggest con were the flies. They were pretty relentless, and the restaurant did not have any of the fans to keep the flies away. Since the restaurant was busy, patience was a key component to a successful HH. The company was the most important factor!

It's a chain. There's something about a chain restaurant that's polished and well fabricated…read more Something about it feels like a lab diamond. It's sparkly, but not intimate. It just feels very manufactured. The menu is varied. If you've read my reviews before, you know that I'm a Texa-fornian, so there are a lot of places in Texas that don't suit my palate (or my waist line.) I was easily able to find a couple of things that I would have enjoyed. Based solely on the calorie count, I picked the salmon with cauliflower rice. It was a little oily, but it was good. I cleaned the plate. It's dark inside, like a steakhouse. Not for me, but if that's your thing, you would be happy. It's clean the food's fresh and if you're a drinker, there is a lot of beer. I'm not a drinker. Maybe you're asking why did you even go? Someone gave me a gift card and someone gave my daughter a gift card, so we had to use them.

They're known for massively tall "yard" servings of beer, though I didn't see anyone trying one on my lunchtime visit. They do have a good 4 pages of beers on the menu! The place has high ceilings with exposed pipes lending an industrial vibe. The menu helpfully marks vegetarian options as well as lower calorie choices. I was impressed to see power outlets along the purse hooks below the bar - if you wanted to bring a laptop and catch up on work emails, it'd be possible. Our waitress was business-like and a little unfriendly, and service was terribly slow. The food was good. Free refills on our drinks flowed freely. I tried a veggie burger which was a bit spicy and oaty. I wish I'd tried a salad! Still, I appreciated that they worked with me on reserving tables for a large group all with separate checks.

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.

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.

Maybe in Canada that's normal. It's not in Dallas; I've never had that happen before. Consider this constructive criticism. Otherwise I like the place. Food is good. Atmosphere nice. Service from Travis at the bar was great. But do things that make people want to come back and/or recommend your place to others. The complimentary "bite" the first two times was a nice touch but even that's gone now. I can't imagine a 1" piece of pizza dough could be that expensive? And it also can be used to advertise what your pizza crust is like for those that may want to order it. Without the bullet points above it would have been 4 stars.
