Our team had a really great time and appreciated the hospitality provided by the Sharky's team! Despite our large group, they seemed to keep our drinks flowing. We ordered a variety of wings, queso, spinach dip, quesadillas, potato skins, mushrooms, jalapeno poppers, tater tots, mini corn dogs and more. The mini corn dogs were my favorite and I'm pretty sure I ate far too many!! I would definitely return to Sharky's for a good time with friends. read more

Love this place! Bartenders always keep your drink full!Best kept secret is that the food is amazing!

Virgil was all by himself there on Sunday for a good while running the whole and being a master bartender attending to everyone's needs, picking up phone calls and taking orders and getting to every order. So chill crowd and chill ambiance. I will be back to try the food it' looked yummy perfect bar food! Go BRONCOS! read more

T what an amazing neighborhood bar this is one of the best dive bars I've been to in a long time. The people are all friendly customers and service people. The food is absolutely excellent. The drinks are strong and inexpensive. They have about 10 8 foot pool tables in the back which are in excellent shape for playing playing. They have 26 foot tables closer to the front one of which doubles for a ping pong table. They have a very comfortable smoking porch, which is wonderful on good and rainy afternoons because it's covered. A couple of nights a week there is league play so pool tables may be hard to find. Pool tables are never free. They are rented at an hourly rate from six dollars to seven dollars . You should take a friend or two with you look at it just a fun place to hang out and catch up. Have some good food and good drinks and a good time. Tell them that Chris Hoover sent you in and they will take very good care of you Happy shooting (pool & drinks!). C read more

Been going to this established water hole since last summer. Overall a pleasant place that draws some really good pool shooters, and a nice mix of clientele that reflects the surrounding residential neighborhood off Preston road, and a private academy across the street. A little dark inside with an unusual-shaped bar (kind of a maze), but plenty of big screen TVs, friendly attentive staff, and some of the best drink prices around. Lunch crowd typically a mix of business people on lunch break and retired locals. Kitchen is above average. They smoke their own brisket in-house, and offer things not often found on sports bar menus such as beer brats and Reuben sandwiches. Blackened fish tacos and charro beans were excellent. The owners are big supporters of the military and law enforcement, so banners from famous units abound. read more

Dive sports bar. It had really cheap beer and food. Really quick service. There isn't much more I can say

What the hell is wrong with you Texas. This place is a great little dive bar. Been there 3 nights in a row on a business trip and will definitely return. If you are getting bad service here it's because you are not a very nice person. Sit at the bar get some good food and cheap drinks and be nice read more

This is my local go to spot. They have the best food and service in the North Dallas area. Check them out!

BEST bar food by far. Wings, nachos, quesadillas, and sandwiches are top notch. Recommend wings with Amanda's sauce, extra crispy! Great staff, lots of games, sports and karaoke on Thursday and Saturday nights. read more

Overall a pretty decent place. I got the chicken tacos which were good. I do not recommend the brisket. My gf had diarrhea all night. It was sick. read more

The food is amazing! We have been coming here for over 5 years and the wings.. OH MAN ARE THEY GOOD! The price is great it's worth every penny. Anytime we have friends or family come in town we love to bring them to our little "hole in the wall" bar. It's our hidden gem. We also got to meet the owner tonight and she's so sweet! She came and checked on us and was super friendly. We love you sharky! read more

It remains home away from home. Moving away only makes returning sweeter. Since I am required to write more words, I'll say that we make a point to stop in and enjoy the atmosphere whenever we are provided the opportunity. read more

Best bar in town. A home away from home. The owners are awesome, the food is great. One of the best burgers you can buy.

I've actually been going to this place for years. I don't have a fried pickle update, but they do have good vegetarian burger. Drinks are cheap. Karaoke nights in Thursday and Saturday are good. It smells better these days. read more

By far one of the best sports/dive bars in North Dallas! The crowd is always laid back yet vivacious. Billiards, darts, shuffle board, arcade games, and good food. Very affordable and close to home. Big shoutout to DJ Rob for brining the heat every Thursday and Saturday night with karaoke. This place has everything read more

I have been frequenting this place for about 2 years. I bring all my dates here haha BECAUSE this place rocks! The staff know me well. My drink arrives basically as soon as I sit down. They have ping pong which is one of my favorite sports so this place gets my vote every time. They also have darts and A Holes which I also love playing. The food I have eaten is great! Those brisket nachos are top notch and the fried pickles? MMmmmm. The environment is chill as it's a private club and the place is clean. Def 5 stars!!! read more

Featured on good morning Texas today. Decided to stop by and try it out and ordered what was on the show. Chicken fried mushrooms, chicken strips. You know we got. We got some burnt everything. The food was un-edible. And never got the nachos I ordered. I dont goto to many sports bars but this review is solely on the food and service. Bartender walked by and said yum yum... Didn't say anything and paid and left with out eating. read more

Sharky's Bar & Grill - Burnt tasting chicken tenders - Pool Halls Near Me - Dallas, Texas

The food here is actually really good. I'm not one for bar food much, however their cheeseburger, that's right a cheeseburger, is awesome. A perfect medium. Seasoned perfectly. Melty cheese, fresh veggies that are still crunchy, nice bun that's doesn't fall apart. What hasn't this been entered in any local food "Best of Dallas" compititions. I mean, that good. They have beer and whiskey too read more

Great place to play pool. Reasonable prices and good crowd as wellI. Enough pool tables that you won't have to ever wait. There are approximately 20 and prices are great you can't go wrong here. read more

Heard about this place when I was at another bar so we decided to try. What a neat place. Service was awesome, patrons were very friendly and a great happy hour. We were there to play pool and have a few drinks. Then decided to order potato skins, delicious-so no picture. Will definitely return. read more

So, I like dive bars, they're fun. What I don't like is rude bartenders and a KJ who only puts his friends on the list and will only put you up the list if you "tip" (i.e. bribe) him. We went here for a friend's birthday party and literally just searched for karaoke in this area of town as it was somewhat centrally located. I wish I had listened to more of the negative reviews because it ended up not being the best experience. When we first arrived the bartender seemed exasperated by the fact that 10+ patrons had walked in planning to spend money. Shouldn't that be a GOOD thing? Especially when the bar was mostly empty and basically just had bar flies of a certain age. She was rude and snapped at us about swiping our licenses, and once that was done seemed already annoyed that we wanted drinks? Just ridiculous, and the bad service continued all night. Honestly, had we not all been there for my friend we would not have stayed. My friend loves karaoke and so to give him the opportunity several of us, several times had to bribe the KJ to actually let him sing. To give you an understanding of how ridiculous this guy is, I signed up and was told I was #13. Two and a half hours later I was going to leave and asked to see if I was close.... I was #11. Just BS, absolute BS. The only reason the night was good was because we had good friends around us, and we will always have those, and definitely somewhere else next time. read more

Saturday night wasn't crowded at all and yet the staff took a while to get our drinks and weren't very friendly. Fried pickles- I try to always get fried pickles everywhere I go to find the best ones around and these sucked. The grease tasted old and the taste was just off. Really greasy. Atmosphere- Seemed like a place you go when you know you're about to die and have just given up all hope. Nah, jk. It wasn't that bad. Just a typical grungy bar. This isn't a place I would go to try new cocktails or anything; just stick with the basics, straight whiskey and you'll be okay. read more

This bar definitely attracts a different crowd that's for sure. A few of us went here for happy hour, and their appetizer table consisted of bow tie pasta, salad and crackers. Weird? The drinks are pretty good during happy hour, and they have their specials until 9pm. It's definitely a place for happy hour, but it's more of a sports bar older crowd hang out place. read more

Love the food and vibes here. This is my 3rd visit and I have to say, when there you are looking for lunch, dinner, drinks, pool, darts, dessert, or even coffee ... you can find it all here! This bar tender seemed a bit more interested in her boyfriend and regulars for the first hour I was there, which is the only reason its 4 instead of five stars!!! read more

Sharky's Bar & Grill - veggie burger with a spicy aioli and charred brussel sprouts! Not your typical bar food. Although their nachos are on point too! - Pool Halls Near Me - Dallas, Texas

See all

I don't write reviews but someone needed to say it. The owner Amanda and her bartenders Alyssa, Collin, and Jason were friendly, professional, warm, and personable. The environment was full of ecstatic patrons equally pleased and eager to socialize with the staff. The kitchen makes delicacies to drool over, and it matches the bar's specials. Pair that with the games, entertainment, and music this became my favorite bar after one visit. read more

I had such a good time! It was my first time there, I just judged based on the friendly Yelp photos. I'm so glad I came, the staff was amazing. The vibe is really laid back and everyone there clapped for karaoke and smiled when you passed them. I didn't get a chance to eat the food but the people who were eating cleaned their plates. It's not frequent that you find a place that you feel at home and the service is good. If you are looking for a place that has excellent atmosphere and good drinks don't search any further. No pretension here, no one trying to over sell you on the latest fade beverage, just kind people ensuring you have a good time. I sang karaoke and Jason was so kind and helpful. I'm disabled and he aided me in adjusting my mic stand without asking. Not many places will even care let alone help without you asking. Amanda and Gwena were so kind and my partner and I can't wait to come back. Thanks for the first class service. read more

Sharky's Bar & Grill - Best KJ in Addison :) - Pool Halls Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This our second visit. The food is good but the service is the pits! The first thing the server/bartender said was that if she got busy, we'd have to come up to the bar to get our own drinks. She was busy talking so we had to go up and order food and then get our own check. If I'm in the mood for good bar food and I don't mind some attitude, I may go back. Or i could just go elsewhere... read more

Solid, seasoned, staple bar of North Dallas. Quick service. All the usual pours and a menu of bar food. Tons of pool tables that have leagues daily. Good times all around. The people working here seem like they've been doing it awhile. And inside is nicely decorated and clean. No complaints, they know what they're doing and do it well. read more

Owner was very rude, she called the cops on her customers, she yelled at them and made a scene. She shouldnt own a bar if she doesn't like how people act when they drink. There are plenty of places in Dallas to play pool and have a few drinks, no need to support this establishment. read more

Very rude employees. Won't be spending my money at an establishment that doesn't cares about their patrons.

A couple years ago I stumbled upon this gem and fell in love. Now, whenever I find myself in Dallas not only do I make a point to stop in, I book a room nearby to ensure I have no excuses. I am sure the entire menu is amazing but I had the good fortune of starting out with their wings in Amanda sauce and OH MY, it was over. I was in WING heaven! This is now, hands down, my benchmark from which I compare all other wings! The bar has a fantastic atmosphere and don't be surprised if you end up enjoying a beer beside the owner! If you're in the area or even if you're not, do yourself a favor and hit up Sharky's taking a Bite out of the Goodness!!! You can thank me later. read more

Bar is a nice place to meet up with friends. The DJ is great but prices for shots are a little steep. AND, beware!!! They add an automatic tip on every bill regardless of group size. Shame too. I normally tip better than their self assigned tips. That's the reason for the low rating. If service is bad you have tip them anyway. read more

I met friends here before a friend's wake. On a rainy evening. Do, a bit of a bummer going in. The bar is big and had lots going on. I ordered a beer at their amazing serpentine bar and sat satisfied until my buddies arrived. And then the electricity went out. Stormy. Dark. I realized this was a first for me. They did great. Everyone worked together -- staff and customers. They got past no electricity. They were gracious. Overall, good experience. read more

great place. great food. great atmosphere. Veronica was the best bartender. I have never had a negative experience coming here

Greatest bar!!! Girls need uniforms Something revealing would be nice. The drinks are good food is GREAT. read more

Her such great things about this bar. I order the same drink wherever I go. Wouldn't you know they over charged me for my shot $6 and it was half the glass I get anywhere else. First impressions mean everything. Bye bye sharkys read more

Sharkys is my local watering hole. The staff is fantastic and they make you feel at home. This is one of the most welcoming bar I've been to in awhile. The food is good and so are their beer prices!!! Keep up the awesomeness. read more

I am revoking a star due to awful service and stupid excuses. I go to Sharky's because it's the "official bar" of the Lonestar sports and social club where I joined a volleyball league. I've been twice now and it's gone downhill. The service is horrendous. They had two bartenders and it's impossible to make an order or get your tab. I did try the food this time around and it was alright. I placed my order for a buffalo chicken wrap...I kid you not, ONE MINUTE later I ran back up to stress I wanted grilled chicken and not fried and the bartender put it in and said, "I guess we'll see how it turns out." This also happens to be the incorrect response. How about you know they didn't start making it so march your happy butt into the kitchen and have them make it how I want it? Too much to ask for? Yes, because it was fried. My only other complaint was that it came with a paper wrapper on it....like they wrapped the whole thing in paper and then cut it down the middle...I thought it was part of some new fangled wrap at first, flaky, you know? Glad I didn't bite into it. It wasn't the least bit spicy and was primarily filled with lettuce and tomato. I waited about 15 minutes to close my tab...the bartender made eye contact and then proceeded to help customers that had waited less time than I did. Then the bartender tried to be all cheery. I'm not buying into it now because I should have been helped at least ten minutes ago. I told him they needed more staff and he got defensive and told me they had it under control until about 5 minutes ago....you know, back when I was still waiting to check out. Excuses are lame and they make me cranky. Tuesday night is volleyball league and apparently they aren't interested in running a smooth operation so I would avoid it unless you are into waiting extended periods of time for mediocrity. read more

Sharky's and I...we're old pals. He's the guy who makes all our birthdays fun. Sharky's is the bar without all the muss, fuss, and $30,000 millionaires. It's low-key, strong drinks, pool, and a jukebox. You gotta love a place with a jukebox. It's the place where the Starry Night shot has knocked me on my ass and gotten my roommate rolling in the grass. It's where D progressively got drunker and even more terrible than he already is at pool. It's an old pal that I feel comfortable showing up to in my p.j.'s. No, seriously, for real- who am I there to impress? Sharky's is a great bar with everything a bar should have and the answer to that is not $10 dollar martinis and tapas. It's beer, wings, and pool. This place runs some great specials like free pool and $5 pitchers for the service industry. (Former waitress, holla!) They even have this really awesome bloody mary bar on Sundays. The bartenders are pals and if I could walk there, everybody would know my name and how many drinks till I puke. Take your Kenneth Cole shoes and Gucci bags elsewhere, frou frou ladies and gents. I can buy my own beer and kick your ass at karaoke in sneakers. read more

If you're looking for your new "regular" spot this is it! I've gone on both a week night and weekend and always have the same great experience. First, I will say, the bar is a little difficult to find, it's tucked away in the shopping center where you'll easily pass it up but totally worth searching for. The owners & staff are very outgoing and friendly. They take the time to walk around and socialize with the customers to ensure you're having a good time. There is usually a group of regulars who are having great conversations and lots of laughs and are very fun to be around. There is also a jukebox full of great songs! The food is top notch for bar food. Try the fried pickles! They always have my favorite drinks and even still have a smoking section on the patio complete with misters which is now a rare find! There is a definite laid back, friendly vibe and great karaoke nights. I've now visited with both a group of friends and on my own and always felt welcome and comfortable! If you haven't made your way out to Sharky's yet, you're missing out on some fun times! read more
