    over cooked burger
    Maggie L.

    haven't been here in quite a while. Was not really all that satisfied with our meal. OK burger, onion rings that were underdone and tasted like raw flour. Bologna sandwich was ordered with lettuce tomato and mayonnaise. Nothing else. A bologna sandwich with tomato and mustard, no lettuce and cheese glued to the bun. I do applaud management for removing the bologna sandwich from our tab. very nice attentive server.

    Chicken Wings

    New to the neighborhood, my gf and I are on a mission to try all the restaurants near our place. Since Loon was a 5 min walk, we decided to have dinner on a Wednesday night and we were definitely pleased. Loon is a cool little neighborhood spot with outdoor patio seating and several tables inside. It's self seat, so find a table and a waitress/waiter will be by shortly. We were immediately greeted by Brandon. He was personable and quick to offer drinks and suggestions for food. I will say that their menu has a little something for everyone! The prices are reasonable and sizes are plentiful. I ordered a Sauvignon Blanc and the bartender was generous with the pour! My gf ordered an Old Fashioned and it solid! For dinner, we ordered Hot Lemon Pepper Wings, cheesy tots and Chicken Franseca. The wings had more spice than lemon pepper but they were still very tasty and fried well! Tots.. how can you go wrong lol..delish! The chicken breast for the Franseca was fried perfectly laid over a bed of Fettuccine. The noodles were cooked perfectly and the sauce was garlicky and creamy. We also noticed that they have game nights on Wednesday. We'll definitely be back for good food, drinks and fun!

    They make really yummy cosmos here! We accidentally came on a night when the game was on, so it was crazy crowded and loud, but we were able to still get a table right away and get our drinks! Cute place, would definitely want to try this again when it's less crazy!

    Nachos

    At first glance, it looks like a decent dive bar, but after seating ourselves as the sign suggested. We waited for 10 minutes before I had to get my own menu. Then ordered a Kentucky mule and they had never heard of it. So I ordered a bourbon neat. Once we got the waitress's we ordered nachos. They took 25 mins to bring them out and as you can see from the photo, it was store bought tortilla chips, store bought shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, and pickled jalapeño. We haven't seen our waitress since she sat down the underwhelming nachos. DON'T waste your time here.

    $5 Termans shots oooweeee

    A great neighborhood vibe with a "Cheers" type of where everyone there knows your name. Most of the customers are regulars and the bartenders make sure to let you know who they are and where they work! I went on a Tuesday! I highly recommend! $2.50 tacos that are huge and tasty and $5 tequila shots. I will be back!

    My absolute favorite Gastropub in Dallas, friendly, attentive, staff, stiff drinks, and absolutely awesome food, streetside patio reminds me of Paris for the people watching yet Dallas based

    This is a great hidden gem near uptown, Heather and Hallie were awesome also was Felipe helping getting things done, checking on the food for sure, here is what you need to know, patience is key for great food service! Specially nowadays! Specials are delicious and drinks are awesome! We will return for more soon!

    The Cash.....yeah that's me!

    My favorite spot for all the puppy love. The loon is our local dive-bar that offers a great atmosphere (puppy love), access to water bowls on the patio, and did I mention our own Puppy menu (check out photos)! With the option of being open every day and late nights on Fridays and Saturdays; I'm able to come here when I want and just enjoy the patio with friends (humans and pups). For the mommies and daddies; there's a full bar and a great human menu from apps, sandwiches and entrees (mommies fav: chicken fried chicken)! Come play with me and don't forget to say hi to all my aunts and uncles (owners and employees)! Update: now open til 2am on Thursdays.....karaoke starting at 8pm

    Loved this bar. Kind of Divey. Not from Texas but the bartender was really nice. If I'm back in town i am considering coming back to this place!

    Singing karaoke instead of waiting on tables

    This was a solid place for the wife and I to visit on a Wednesday night at 11pm. It was lively and…read morethe kitchen would stay open until 11:45 Here's what we got: - steak frittes: for $29, you get Brussels sprouts, fries, steak and a peppercorn sauce. How can you argue with that? You can't. Solid. - spicy chicken strips: these were good but nothing special. What was special were the sauces this came with. Aside from that, we felt the chicken was kinda dry. Very crispy though. - bourbon bread pudding: Just Good.

    We had a great experience with our server and genuinely enjoyed our visit overall. Unfortunately,…read morethe end of the evening left a very disappointing impression. After requesting a water to go, we were unexpectedly accused by the bartender, Jake, of placing an alcoholic beverage into a to-go cup. The accusation was embarrassing, unnecessary, and made even more uncomfortable by the fact that it was made publicly and without cause. To be fair, the manager on staff handled our complaint regarding Jake professionally and with care, which we truly appreciated. However, the situation itself left a lasting negative impression. As professionals in the criminal law and medical fields, we value professionalism, discretion, and respectful communication. Being wrongly accused in that manner was disappointing and frankly humiliating. Because of this experience, we will not be returning anytime soon, despite what had otherwise been an enjoyable evening.

Since the weather has been so nice lately, outdoor seating is super popular, so I'd recommend making a reservation if you can. Even though we didn't have one, they were still able to accommodate our group which we really appreciated. The service was amazing...everyone was so polite, attentive, and fast. The drinks were delicious and the food came out surprisingly quickly as well. They also offer valet, but if it's packed, there's parking across the street too which was convenient. Highly recommend for a nice lunch or dinner during the weekend. We'll definitely be coming back again!

The location is super cute and always packed. You definitely need a reservation or have to go super early to get a spot. There is valet parking as well as street parking, which can get a bit crowded. I've had a ton of different food items the years, but their fajitas are their signature dish for a reason! It comes out sizzling, fresh, and delicious. Do not pass up on the bone marrow sauce, it transforms the dish to beyond a 10/10! The salsas are always good and then tortilla chips salty and fresh. I start with a skinny margarita w a salt rim, which was good. Our waiter, Abraham, was great! He was very attentive and was very knowledgeable about the menu. We also order the ceviche to start, which was yummy! The crackers were a bit of an odd pairing for me and I stuck with tortilla chips, but overall delicious!! My friend ordered the steak quesadilla and thought it was tasty too.
