    This place is nothing but wonderful. Food, service, ambience are top notch. It can be compared with the library afternoon tea in Edinburgh library but at a fraction of the cost. Parking is expensive. I bought a bag of tea upon departure, as a regular tea drinker, I assure you that they use quality tea. We ordered vegan and regular version, both are great. Ambience: 5/5 Food: 5/5 Price: 5/5 Service: 5/5

    Non alcoholic prosecco. It was so good, I had to get a pic of the bottle !

    The food, service, ambiance, and overall experience was absolutely amazing. Worth the money. Great experience would absolutely recommend.

    Amazing breakfast! Service was phenomenal! They were very attentive and made my boys feel special and cared for. The star of the show was the espresso martini and the eggs Benedict. The eggs Benedict had Wagyu beef inside. The eggs Benedict was served differently than any way that I've had it before and I loved it. Everything was classy and delicious! Drinks were amazing for the most part! I wasn't a fan of the initial old fashion that I had but the second was just how I liked it. The bar was decorated beautifully and we were able to have a drink by the fireplace

    We had a really nice time at the holiday tea. They are very well trained in keeping your service running smoothly to ensure you are done in almost exactly 2 hours. I am a vegetarian so I got a slightly altered menu from both the vegan menu and the regular menu, but each item was very tasty and I managed to be very full afterwards. It's really beautiful inside and was still decorated in January. The only issue we had was they charged one person in our parties card twice and mine not at all but we later figured it out and settled it amongst us.

    European flair & beauty!

    Finally made it with some girl friends to the fabulous French Room! You feel so special as soon as you step in to the beautiful surroundings. Impeccable decor and ambience, attentive and thorough staff. The tea & savory course was perfect with a light tea flavor with perfectly delicious bites. The sweet course had a richer & lightly smoky tea that highlighted the various rich and decadent desserts. Add ons are an option from caviar to salmon. The best experience for a special occasion. Felt like a vacation on a Thursday. Definitely a special foodie highlight!

    Had a lovely afternoon tea here with a large party for my wife's birthday in September, 2025. Everything was excellent. The service was attentive and professional, and both the savory and sweet courses were fun and tasty. The kids even had their own menu. The hotel is a beautiful space with many photo opportunities. Everyone had a lovely time as we made some lasting memories together.

    We came here for their Cherry Blossom tea and everything was so cute! The French Room is located in the Adolphus Hotel. There is valet parking and you have to mention that you're eating at the French Room when you park. The parking is $12 for the whole day. Everything is digital when you're parking so you text the number when you are ready to pick up your car. They park it in front of the hotel. The French Room is at the very corner of the hotel but the front desk can direct you to where it's located. The service was very good. They sat us very quickly and they offered champagne when we sat down. We had the three course Afternoon Tea. The first course was the savory course with sandwiches, the second course were the scones and the last course were the pastries. They even explained the different teas that came along with the courses. Overall, the food tasted very good, but for $75 per person you're going for the experience and service.

    The review is for the French Room Bar (open until midnight). We stayed at the Adolphus Hotel so we went to the bar for a nightcap. Our bartender was amazing. The drinks were sophisticated and delicious. We very much enjoyed the drinks. The banana cake drink was served with a small slice of banana bread. We really loved the banana bread and asked if they sold it. The bartender told us they have a bakery downstairs that provides all the baked goods for the French Room and the cafe and gave us a complimentary slice. Amazing vibes. The atmosphere is intimate and romantic. A 20% tip is included in the bill but I gave extra because the service and drink/food were all amazing. 100% recommend.

    I had such a lovely experience enjoying afternoon tea at The French Room! The ambience is absolutely beautiful -- elegant, calm, and perfect for a relaxing afternoon. Our server, Carlos, truly made the experience exceptional. He was incredibly knowledgeable and gave such an in-depth historical background on each of the teas we tried. You could tell he was passionate about what he does, and it made the whole tasting so much more special. He was also very prompt, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. The tea selection was wonderful (I love Oolong and Darjeeling), the food was delicate and well-prepared, and the overall experience felt refined without being stuffy. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a classic afternoon tea in Dallas -- and if you can, ask for Carlos!

    This experience was like none I have ever done. I have done high tea in multiple cities but this one was particularly elegant and luxurious! The ambience was a girls dream and I cannot wait to come back!!! The service made me feel like a princess and Carlos our server most definitely was the star of the show. He was fun, intelligent, and the highlight of the experience! His energy and passion was most definitely what curated the luxury experience we were hoping for, he deserves a bonus by far!! The perfect pillar to our bachelorette weekend!!

    Gorgeous Afternoon Tea! Perfect for the Holidays! Ambiance & Service: Stunning interior with gold crown molding and chandeliers. Loved the live harpist! The service was impeccable--Connie and Carlos were exceptionally attentive and friendly! Food: The set menu includes one tea for the savory course and another for the sweet. Both the Chinese Yellow Tea and English Breakfast were fantastic! As a vegetarian, I received a plant-based savory menu with regular sweet items. Everything was delightful! Favorites: Pumpkin & Smoked Cheddar Muffin, Cinnamon & Currant Scone, and Poached Pear & Honey Tartelette. You'll absolutely leave full and completely satisfied!

    Cute place to have a tea party brunch. I was in town visiting and decided to gather a few of my friends together to catch up on life. The service was superberb. We had Mrs Connie who has been working there for 40hrs.

    Returned for Holiday Tea at The Adolphus this year was not impressed. I no longer recommend adding this to your holiday rotation. The service and ambiance was exactly how it's always been, an elegant experience that is exclusive to this tea room; but that is the only thing they seem to offer now. The quality of the food had definitely gone down, it almost seemed like everything we ate had been sitting out all day before being served. Some of the food I received did not even seem edible. The scones were bland and the bread on the sandwiches felt almost stale. Luckily, the tea and the ambiance were the best part - hence the two stars.

    Looking somewhere to host a bridal shower brunch, is this an option here? Is there a private room we can reserve?

    Yes

    Any idea if they take walk-ins for dinner? The night we'd like to go doesn't have a reservation available until 9!

    They usually are booked a couple weeks in advanced, so usually no. I would call ahead if I am you! Or check open table ☺️

    I read somewhere that they've resumed afternoon tea service. Can't find any info on days/times/menu. Anyone attended tea here?

    Yes! I have gone and it was great! It is $55 and they do it from noon to three Friday Saturday and Sunday's

    Have they remodeled the restaurant and menu?

    They did but service and quality have gone down. I went 4 weeks after they reopened and it was spectacular. I told some family about it and they went 12 weeks after reopen and EVERYTHING was horrible.

    We celebrated our anniversary yesterday by going to one of our favorite places in Dallas. St…read more Martin's Wine Bistro is a life changing dining experience! Because yesterday was also Anthony Bourdain day, we celebrated by trying a food we had never tried before: Steak Tartare! Oh. My. God. It was luscious and divine. We enjoyed the Shrimp St. Martin-poached shrimp in a delectable beurre-blanc sauce. Of course, we had to share a bowl of my love language: Champagne and Brie Soup. There aren't words for the moment you sip your first taste. Your eyes roll into the back of your head as you savor the explosion of flavor. For entrees, I had the Sole Meunière. Seared perfectly in butter and the only place outside of France that has done this fish justice. James had the Scallops and Pork Belly. It was a new spin on surf and turf. Judging by how little he spoke to me during his meal, I am assuming it was fabulous. He did give me a bite and the scallop was prepared perfectly and was probably the best scallop that I've had in DFW. The restaurant sent us over 2 glasses of house-made bourbon crème for our anniversary. It was similar to Baileys, but on steroids. For dessert, we walked back over to the bar for after dinner drinks. James enjoyed a glass of Abelour Scotch neat. It's his favorite as it's not peaty at all. Jamie, the bartender, made me the best espresso martini that I've ever had! Fresh espresso mixed with espresso liqueur, reposado tequila and bourbon cream. She hit the top with flame to settle the bubbles in order to add espresso beans. Honestly, it was the best meal that I've had outside of France.

The cocktail menu is diverse and unique. I took our excellent server's (Kayla) recommendation and had the Bryan St Martini, which is a gin-based martini with a a lemon stuffed olive topped with black caviar. My wife had the Spiced Pear 75, which she loved. Since they are cuisine francaise, our table started with the escargot bourguignon, which has the typical six snails, but instead of butter+garlic+herbs, they were in a cream sauce and then topped with more escargot on top! The complimentary bread (and butter) served when we sat down were perfect to top with escargot and dip into the cream sauce. Our dining friends order the beet carpacio salad and we had the champagne-brie soup. After one spponful, I told Kayla that dish alone is worth another visit. My wife had the duck a l'orange and I had chicken roulade. For dessert, we split a bananas foster souffle, which requires 20 minutes prep time, which Kayla perfectly timed after we ordered when our entrees came. Overall, great food, GREAT service and a truly unique vibe!

First, you walk in and you're introduced to a small, charming, and warm space that looks straight out of a children's fairytale. Don't forget to grab a little surprise card (child friendly and adult friendly) either before you sit down or on your way out. Cute conversation starters and reflection inspiration! My objective of the night was dessert, so I didn't even bother to look at the savory souffles. While waiting for our server, my eyes were captivated by the twinkling lights around me (in the indoor space) and the sight and sounds of the chefs whisking away the souffles before they went in the oven. I was expecting Ratatouille's Remy to pop out. Anyway, as we gazed through the dessert menu, we thought we were enlightened already, but it only got better -- the specials: Strawberry and Pistachio. I'm regretting only getting the Pistachio because it was just so dang good. Will definitely be back. Austin is missing out.

    Update for 31-May As…read morewe were staying at the hotel this is in, we walked down for brunch. The good: - Not busy - Server Caleb is quite pleasant - Scrambled eggs and breakfast potatoes were tasty - Yogurt Parfait was tasty but way too big. It was served in a large bowl. Way overkill. The not so great: - My wife's meal took over an hour to come out. Ordered just after 10 am and came out at 11:08 am - The Croque Madam needs to be removed from the menu. A French person would have been horrified at this dish In summary over three meals in the last 30 days, the food is hit and miss and the Kitchen is very slow. I love the location but I'm not sure we'll come back to eat at Toussaint. ---------- We mostly enjoyed our meals here. This review is for two visits that we've made here in the last 30 days. Our first visit here was on May 9, following an afternoon concert up the block at the Majestic Theatre. We popped in here about 5:30 pm and we shared a meal. They were able to do a kitchen split of the French dip meal. It was really tasty. The bartender worked the bar and the entire dining room. Must have been short handed that night but he did great. This weekend (May 29), we ended up staying at the Saint Elm Hotel which occupies the same building. We ended up at the Toussaint for dinner one night. We each had the French Onion Soup and we shared the Braised Short Rib dinner. The French Onion Soup was very good. It's in my top 3 of all time! The Braised Short Rib dinner - kitchen split, came out and presented great. Unfortunately, it was not served hot. It was barely warm. We sent it back for reheating. It came back out about 15 minutes later. The mashed potatoes, mushroom and gravy were warm. The short rib was not. We ate it cool anyway as we had a show to get to and I didn't really want to send it back again. That said, the potatoes, mushrooms and gravy had great flavor. The above all said for this dinner - I'd still come back to try other dinner dishes. Not sure my wife would agree.

The decor is classic and doesn't have much fanfare which I think fits the French vibe. We sat outside on the patio and even though it was scorching outside, because of the tent-style covering and air conditioning the place was kept cool. The patio is dog friendly as well. When we got there the host was with us immediately and found us a table. I'm thinking they might've also been a manager because they were walking throughout the restaurant checking on everyone even though they weren't too busy. Really liked how diligent they were. Unfortunately, the same can't be said about our server. He was very nice and gave good recommendations when asked, but we barely saw the guy throughout our meal. The host/manager that was there came more than once to check on us and bring us anything we needed, but if he wasn't there I think we wouldn't have had anyone else come up to us besides taking the orders, dropping them off, and bringing us the check (which we had to hunt them down for). The food itself was really good thankfully. The duck was delicious and my partner loved his croque madame! I had a bite of his and immediately got jealous because I had been craving brunch and his dish fit that theme perfectly, unlike mine. I left nothing on my plate whereas he couldn't finish his because it was too much heavy food for him. We also got the truffle deviled eggs as a starter and they had great flavor, though the filling was a little dry for my taste. Nothing wrong with it since it was just a matter of personal preference. I don't know if we'll be back since the service was inconsistent, but at least it was a good meal.

    Oh man... what a let down this visit was for us…read more My wife and I have come here at least once a year for the past 3 years, and we've always loved this place. The food has always been great and the experience was something we looked forward to. That's why we chose to celebrate an early Valentine's Day here -- to avoid the crazy rush and the preset menu. But this time? Completely different experience. We got seated right away because of our reservation, which was great. It took a few minutes for the waiter to come by -- no big deal. I ordered an Old Fashioned and honestly... the bartender needs some help. It came out full of crushed ice and tasted watered down. I sent it back, and the second one was basically the same drink with more whiskey thrown in. At that point, I just let it go. Then things just kept going downhill. After about 20 minutes, we realized we hadn't gotten any bread. We asked the waiter and he said he'd check. Another 10 minutes go by and he comes back saying, "Still no bread," and drops off the wrong appetizer -- we had only ordered a salad. He takes it back, and it's another 15 minutes before our actual salad shows up. Still no bread. At one point, we could literally see him arguing with someone in the back about why we didn't get bread yet. Not exactly something you want to watch during a date night. The food, when it finally came out, was delicious. No complaints there. But it took forever. By the time we were eating, it was about 45 minutes until closing... and we had gotten there two hours earlier. Then comes the payment situation. The waiter brings the check back and casually tells me I gave him two credit cards and he "just picked the brighter one." I look down and he had handed me someone else's credit card while mine was still sitting in the book. That's not a small mistake. Overall, it just felt unorganized and sloppy this time. I don't know if they're short staffed or just getting too busy for their own good, but it was disappointing, especially for a place we've genuinely enjoyed in the past. Hoping it was just an off night... but it definitely made us think twice about coming back.
