    Giant Roosters take over Downtown !  Quick get some MORE tequila Ole' !
    TheReal100 P.

    Fri, 7/30 & Sat, 7/31/l21 - PARKING was a little challenging. ENTRANCE: greeted right away, hospitable. SERVICE: is wonderful, friendly and professional; very conscientious about the order accuracy. FOOD: YES, Excellent with good low price points. IMPRESSIVE highest quality; home-made from scratch; and they use fresh REAL food. (They do NOT use fake artificial food or food from a chemist's laboratory that has been canned or frozen with chemicals, nitrates, sodium and preservatives shipped across the nation. Other places use disgusting "rubber" meat. Other places use fake artificial so-call cheese made from processed oils.) Wow WONDERFUL, Viva El Gallo uses expensive REAL cheese and sour cream made from God's cows. The sauces are made fresh from the perfect blend of spices. Only The Be$t tequilas. Chips yes, were fresh and tasty hot sauces. I had the beef fajita nachos and they were great and the chips were not soggy but rather kept their crunch. Only one minus: wish they would bake the jalapenos with the cheese. This establish performs, delivers and EXCELS. This restaurant gets an "A+". The ATMOSPHERE and decor are too cool cantina style plus the back outdoor tables with magnificent views of all the Downtown skyscrapers.

    I want to know if they're dog friendly. But they don't answer the phone and the website says they're not busy. Frustrating.

    Started at Archive and ended the night at Alchemy (two separate reservations for a Saturday night.)…read moreWas pleasantly surprised their happy hour included Saturday and went until 6:30pm. Ordered a couple "Over the Counter" cocktails - frozen pineapple margarita and an old fashioned. Happy hour also included a lot of food options so we chose to just order a bunch off of that - Icelandic Hotdog, Caviar Chip (both bite sized), oysters, beef cheek tacos, and a caesar salad and burger to split. Was more than enough! We also tried the frozen Irish Coffee and Horseplay (horseradish agua fresca) and then went for our second reservation at Alchemy. Alchemy is more experimental. Here we tried a kimchi based cocktail and the sauerkraut cake. Food and drinks were all phenomenal and the atmosphere of both bars was moody and elegant. Definitely plan to come back to try more drinks! All wait staff were very friendly and the owner even stopped by to chat with us.

I started with the "Ghana Be Kidding" cocktail. It featured prekese syrup -- which I had no idea what it was--a flavor that's popular in West Africa, and while it was an interesting and unique drink, it ended up being much sweeter than I expected and just wasn't for me. Thankfully, our waiter Victor was incredibly kind and accommodating. He happily helped me choose something else and made sure I ended up with a drink I enjoyed. I switched to the Horse Play, which was much more refreshing and exactly what I was lookin for. Great recommendation. We both got APO burger and it was good.

We used to have night out with dinner but now we do lunch. We chose this restaurant based on the D magazine article about the best burgers in dallas. Goodwin's burger was rated one of the best and it lived up to their reputation. We had one burger medium rare and one burger medium well and we had one patty melt, along with salad and fries. All were cooked perfectly. Service was a 10 and the ambiance was a 10. Drinks were great and they had every bourbon we asked for. I would definitely return with my spouse to spoil her.

    Upscale steakhouse atmosphere with tasty, veg-friendly options!…read more We had my friend's birthday dinner here and enjoyed the experience! The service was very attentive and friendly. They added candles to the birthday cake that we brought in, which was very nice of them! Apps: Cheese Beignets and Zucchini Chips - both were tasty! The beignets were small and not too heavy. I enjoyed the herby sauce on the chips, but wished it was served on the side! Mains: English Pea & Potato Pierogi, Mac and Cheese, and Vegetable Pasta - they were very nice to make a vegetarian pasta dish for us, and it was delicious! The tomato sauce was flavorful. The Mac and Cheese was also perfectly cheesy and I enjoyed the garlic breadcrumbs. My favorite was the Pierogi -- savory potato's, sweet brown butter sauce, and fresh greens to balance it all out! Highly recommend!
