    I always love a good Brazilian restaurant and this one didn't dissapoint. Especially with their chicken. While it was unfortunate they advertised having numerous Brazilian beers, they only had one in house. They do have some good Pinot noir though and the flan coming with the overall meal was a great addition. $32 a person for Brazilian you can't beat and they have plenty of food

    Oh my gosh, I cannot believe I have been missing out on this place. Stop by today for lunch and it's all you can eat for $25 and let me tell you everything was perfect. When you walk in your ass, how many people will be in your party and you are quickly seated. From there, you can go ahead and flip your card Over from Red to Green and then let the fun begin. They have a salad bar ranging from all kinds of lettuce to all kinds of vegetables, fruits and more. At the bar where you can get and build your salad they also have vegetables ranging from potatoes, corn, green beans, fresh pico de gallo anything you name it it's there! Just grab a plate and load it up but make sure to save room for the main course which is all the good meats that they have. The meat range from high-end steaks to chicken to many more meats that I can't even name because there were so many. The staff is super friendly and they come around bringing it in less until you just cannot eat anymore. Once you're full you flip it over to Red and then that's it time to go. I will be coming back here. I had a great time. I will have to say that I do believe the main chef came out several times and serve the sirloin which was my absolute favorite meat of all of them! I will say my favorite thing at the end was the pineapple I had no idea, but it was gonna taste like how it did, but I will say that before you wrap up, make sure that the last thing you try is the pineapple that comes around? It is going to surprise you so please do not leave without trying it. It will definitely leave an everlasting impression as I've never had pineapple like this before. I won't tell you what it taste like because I don't wanna ruin the element of surprise, but please note that I will be changing how I have pineapple going forward! Shout out to all of the ladies that were serving all of the customers and ensuring that we were good and coming around with plenty of water, and shout out to the chefs, they were in the back that kept the meat coming and shout out to all of the staff that provided great customer service!

    The food was solid. Unlike most places; your bread, polenta, and bananas/plantains are in the buffet area with a lot of other items which are self served. But here's a small story. Hungry. Angry. Hangry! That is the mood I got myself into after not eating for so long. The husband and I decided to drop by here at 4:00 without realizing that they didn't open for another hour so we kill time by going to Dillard's down the street. Once waiting and getting here the ambiance was quaint. Not too warm, and not too cold! You'll need a light jacket if you're running on the frigid side. Were greeted by our server Adelino and that was one of the last times seeing him besides him dropping and picking up the check. Everyone else was solid; the food? Delicious. A little salty but it works out. There's a nice fat cap on a bunch of the items so it retains that extra flavor and juiciness. But why the 3 stars raj? There was a server with an electric fly swatter and he was doing it over and around the bar where drinks were being sent out. Please by the love of god do that not in service and in front of guests. I suppose what really got me and rubbed me the wrong way was of an auto gratuity when it was just a simple date night between eyad and I. If I hadn't had seen it, I would've tipped the average 25%. But oh well, you lose some and the server definitely lost that extra 5%. -should shrug- we paid and left but just be cautious and weary.

    I have been to this restaurant several years ago. They have remodeled and updated the interior. We came on a Saturday afternoon after running several errands. We were greeted at the door by Rochelle and seated immediately. There are several new Brazilian Steakhouses that have opened up in Irving but this place has more a a "hole in the wall" feel to it in comparison to some of the other fancier contemporaries. We enjoyed the well stocked salad bar with several types of rice, several types of beans, fried bananas, and bread with cheese. We sat at our table and then tasted the many meats that came out. Finally, we finished with the home made flan also at the salad bar and roasted pineapple with cinnamon. The service was great, the atmosphere was casual, and the food was great. We will come again.

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.

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.

I've never had anything that wasn't perfectly prepared, flavorful, and served the correct temperature. And that's what really matters in a restaurant, of course. But the vibe is odd. I can't put my finger on it. It's "clique-y". Every time I come, I walk into an empty restaurant with no host. And it seems I've walked in before they opened. They have lots of private events which are walled off with weird partitions. And they sometimes (according to others I overheard) completely close down for private parties. I don't ask for much. I require very little attention. I grossly over tip. And, yet still I feel very unwelcome in this restaurant that I have frequented several times. I don't get it. The other customers were very nice to me, but the staff seemed annoyed by my presence. It's bizarre. Anyway, the food alone earns them a top rating. Pro tip: Do NOT sit at the bar. They don't tell you this: but it's for the regulars. You'll feel like you've wandered into a party you weren't invited to. AND.....order the Prince Edward Island mussels!

Plenty of parking available in the strip mall. The restaurant offers beer, wines and cocktails with a full bar service. Pricing: Not an inexpensive restaurant but it's worth the money you pay.

    What an experience. I dined at Pappas Bros. Steakhouse for my first dinner after landing in Dallas…read moreand it set an impossibly high bar for the rest of my meals during my Dallas trip. The food and service here is absolutely incredible. That said, given how pricey the meal is, you'll certainly want to reserve this meal for celebrations and special occasions. Between the four in our party, we shared the following: jumbo lump crab cakes ($36.95), prime tomahawk ($194.95), prime New York strip 14oz ($64.95), jumbo asparagus ($17.95), roasted wild mushrooms ($21.95), creamed spinach ($17.95), and a New York-style cheesecake ($18.00) for dessert to share. If you're a wine enthusiast, there's a Bible sized wine menu available here to thumb through. Our server made it a point to emphasize the scale and expansiveness of their wine list. The list goes on and on -- covering every imaginable region of the world and year, and as a casual wine drinker, I was simply overwhelmed. However, if you're looking for cocktails instead, any "standard" cocktail you can think of is available. I ordered an Old Fashioned and it was stiff, yet nicely balanced. Moving on to the food, I have never had crab cakes as good as the ones here -- this appetizer is a must order. Most crab cakes I've had have too much bread crumb fillers and tend to be a bit bland. The ones here contain generous amounts of large, chunky crab meat, are well-seasoned, and are perfectly fried. The tomahawk steak is a serious show-stopper. If there's one cut to order, it's this one. Carved table-side, you really get to appreciate the size and beauty of this cut of meat. The meat is expertly cut off from the bone, and I love the distribution of rendered fat on each piece of meat. Some steakhouses offer a bunch of different sauces and dips to go with the meat, but none of that is available here: you're here for the meat, and you can truly appreciate the flavor and quality of the dry-aged meat in its purest form. All you really need is some salt and you've got the perfect bite. The steak here is delicious; no notes. Although the steak is the clear star of the show at Pappas Bros., the sides cannot be skipped over (not that you'd want to, given how delicious everything sounds). I was tempted to order the large tower of golden onion rings that many other tables seemed to be ordering, but ultimately settled on some of the other vegetable offerings. The creamed spinach is rich and decadent. One order is easily enough for a group to share. The jumbo asparagus is honestly some of the longest and largest spears of asparagus I've ever seen. They had a nice snappy bite to them. Although you'll probably be absolutely stuffed by the end of your meal, I encourage you to order at least a dessert to split. Although I only had a chance to try the New York-style cheesecake, it's something I would happily order again. The gargantuan size of the slice of cheesecake is enough for a group of 8 to split. Like everything else on the menu, the cheesecake is rich. I appreciate that the cake itself was not overly sweet. The whipped cream on top was light and fluffy. If you're looking for a steakhouse in Dallas with quality food, drinks and service, look no further than Pappas Bros. Steakhouse. Closing note: there is no dress code that's enforced.

They bagged it up for him, and he left it behind. A $78 steak, not even touched. The mashed potatoes were great actually. Brussel Sprouts were the worst I've ever tasted. I think the poor server saw we weren't enjoying dinner and brought us out a complimentary chocolate tart, said to celebrate their married couple. It too was not good. Most everything was left half eaten or barely touched. I've never felt like I just threw $500 in the trash can, as I did last night. The food looked good (as shown in the pictures below, but don't be fooled) Complete disappointment. I say this as someone who worked for a restaurant group of high end restaurants for many years.

I continue to be impressed by the service and the food. And when you combine this with the beautiful spring weather in Texas (March), it's one of the best experiences in all of DFW.

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.
