The service was friendly, fast, and knowledgeable . Drinks and appetizers were delicious, along with the fabulous new strawberry salad. The fried chicken and biscuits were out of this world. We finished with the very yummy orange cake.

Had the most wonderful birthday dinner at Haywire! The food and ambiance are always so good, and this visit was no exception. Carlos, our waiter, was so nice and attentive. He made sure we had everything we needed and helped make my birthday dinner extra special. Such a great experience from start to finish. I’ll definitely be back!

We dined for brunch. Great selections. Food, service, and atmosphere were top notch. I was so pleased to see that Yardbird brought back a vegan menu option and it was very delicious. Everyone in my party enjoyed their meal—Chefs kiss!

Our experience at The Mansion Restaurant on Turtle Creek was outstanding from start to finish. The Tuna Crudo was fresh, bright, and perfectly balanced. The Steak au Poivre was top tier, cooked exactly right with a rich peppery sauce. The lemon basil pasta was bright, fresh, and perfectly executed. Easily one of the standout dishes of the night. We finished with the Crème Brûlée, which was absolutely amazing. Service was attentive and polished. The atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable, even in such an elegant setting. Highly recommend for a special occasion or a memorable night out in Dallas.

Want great food, and to do good at the same time? Then Cafe Momentum's your kind of place. I picked CM for my birthday dinner, and all of us had the smoked fried chicken entree, and everyone just raved about it. The crab/spinach dip appetizer was also very tasty. We just love the people there and what they are accomplishing with at risk youth in our city. Can't wait to dine at their new location, coming at the end of this year in the Design District!
