    One bite test of a donut from a former gas station. I wasn't intending to do a Single Bite Test today and passed several other donut shops that would have been great prospects. However, this one caught my eye for a couple of reasons. I grew up in this part of Dallas. My grandmother lived down the street and I remember stopping here for gas with her. So,I thought what better place to do a SBT. Now I didnt go to the trouble of writting a review for the SBT. I could have just listed it like say...5. Yes a five on the 1-10 scale. It was way too sweet and didnt taste as good as other Southern maid locations I've sampled. No, the reason I'm writing this is to point out a huge glaring error the clerk made in my order. I pointed to the Plain Glazed and said, I want one Plain glazed. Simple. I then ask her if the one next to it was chocolate-covered cake. She said yes. I said Ill take one of those too. I paid and stopped at a close by table to look at my order. There was a chocolate-covered cake and a plain cake. I went back to the counter and showed her the two donuts that I had, and reminded her of the one plain glazed. She seemed a little confused so, I stated it again. She bent down and put a donut in another bag handed it to me then with a wax sheet looked at the one I had and reached for it! I handed it to her thinking wow that's not right. I got to my car, opened the bag, and guess what. It was another cake just like the one id given her? Ok ,Im thinking what am i, going crazy? I reviewed in my mind what id said and returned inside. I approached the counter and again said Id ordered a Plain Glazed and you gave me another cake. Again, she looked confused. I pointed to the plain glazed and ask her isnt that what you call those, plain glazed? I'm still not sure what happened there but, again she took the wrong donut from me a second time and didn't throw it away!!!! So, Im writing this to warn others to stay away. There are plenty of shops around here to get donuts at. I'm sure she put those donuts back in the case when I left.

    Moved recently so this is now my neighborhood donut shop! Hours are standard and unlike many other in the metroplex it has a nice outdoor seating area if you want to eat onsite. Love their Apple fritters which are bigger than a toddlers head along with their sour cream and cake donuts. They've been hit or miss with the Kolaches as they only have the jalapeños half the time I've been but they were tasty when I was able to try them.

    Fell in love with Southern Maid during the many trips to see family in Shreveport. So, I was so excited to see that they opened a bunch of them in Dallas. My mom and I headed over to the Bishop Arts location and checked them out. We got three of their traditional glaze and a twist. Even though they were not pipping hot they still had that creamy and not too sweet Southern Maid taste--that makes you want to eat the entire bag and your friends too! I will be back when I need another donut fix!

    Love the delicious food, donuts & coffee yum! We've been coming for years with all our kids and enjoy it.

    Not sure what all the hype is about. I've been here twice and haven't been entirely impressed. The donuts are always dry and seem a bit old. I waited 15 minutes one day at the window just to get my order placed, I thought that was a little ridiculous, but maybe I'm just dramatic?? I will say I've had very friendly people serve me both visits. I'm up for one more try, walking inside might be better than the drive thru

    Not a great parking situation, but what place is that's close to/in Bishop Arts? You can park in the neighborhoods and walk over if you don't live close by! This place has tons of coffee options and an array of sausage rolls and donuts. They also offer soda if that's for you. The donuts are fantastic, slightly crisp and not too sweet. Note: all of the sausage rolls have cheese except for the mini ones. However, those mini pigs in blankets are delicious and 3 for $1 so if you're dairy free this is for you! They have five booths inside and at least eight or so tables outside, so if you're not taking your order to-go then there's a good chance you'll find a place to enjoy your food! Service was fine. No one was enthusiastic or anything, but they were very quick and efficient which is fine by me!

    I really like this establishment coffee is good , donuts are good and let me just say the croissants are fantastic. The one thing that draws me into this place is the building itself a very French café style. Friendly people and great breakfast place.

    They have plenty of fancy donuts with toppings and fillings and the like, but the plain glazed are so good that anything else just seems like gilding they lily.

    Dear Chilangos Management Team, I am a long-time patron of…read moreyour restaurant, frequently bringing my employees to dine with you two to three times a month. Unfortunately, our last two visits have been highly disappointing, and I wanted to bring this to your attention. During our visit today, we noticed a significant drop in the quality of the ribeye steak. The meat was tough, chewy, and lacked flavor. Given how frequently we dine here, the change was highly noticeable. Have you recently changed your meat providers or specifications for this cut? Additionally, as someone who works within a restaurant group, I must express concern regarding your beverage pricing. The current rates for water and soda are exceptionally high--to the point where my team now opts out of purchasing drinks entirely. I strongly encourage you to consider adjusting these to a more reasonable rate, or at the very least, proactively offering complimentary iced tap water. We truly love your restaurant and want to continue supporting you. I share this feedback in the spirit of helping your kitchen maintain its excellent standards. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your response. Sincerely, Chris L.

    THIS IS THE TACO SPOT IF YOURE COMING TO DALLAS!…read more We've had some great street tacos all around the U.S. - back home in Central Florida, NYC, Texas and Cali - and by far the quality of ingredients, especially the meats are head and shoulders above the rest. I had their signature ribeye served on corn tortillas (which while not a traditional street taco was absolutely exceptional and well worth the price), DON'T COME HERE WITHOUT GETTING THIS. We also got Al Pastor off el trompo, chicken, and suadero every single meat was the best we've ever had. Corn tortillas were delicious. We couldn't think of better tacos off any truck or restaurant anywhere. Same for the elote cup - it's easy for places to go too salty on this but they got it right here. Service was exceptional as well - no water cups but we forgot to get a water for our 3 year old and we got it on the house. Salsas are exceptional as well! Will absolutely be back next time we're in town - 10/10!

I'll skip the pastor and chicken quesadilla next time, and try and get the birria tacos if I'm there on a Sunday. I didn't get a picture of churros but they were the best I've ever had. Crunchy and flavorful. Service was fast, but the calling of your name (to pick up the order) is super low. I don't know how my friend heard our name. Ambiance is loud, but I was also there during the Mexico WC game, so that's understandable. The place was lively and fun.

Good to know they still have it around. The workers are very nice and friendly. They also have live music, at least when i went.
