If you’re looking for an elegant evening with some of the best views of Dallas, then this is your place. However, if you’re looking for an outstanding meal, you’d do better with another restaurant. That said, I would go back to have drinks at the bar, or maybe even dinner with an out-of-Town guest, but that’s about it. Tons of Dallas-based restaurants with better food. More

First of all our server Aaron was so polite and mindful. He had the perfect amount of presence. He didn't pester us, but he was there when we needed him. My fiance had the steak which was the best piece of juicy meat I've had in my life. I don't know what herbal concoction they put on top of that but I LOVED it. I had the fish sandwich and it was divine. Their slaw recipe is so nice and tangy. The fish was crisp but somehow the batter seemed to like dissolve in your mouth like savory cotton candy. I had a gift card and I only used half of it...the food and service was so great I left the other half completely as a tip to Aaron! More

Taste of food, presentation, decor, ambience and location were all up to par. Prices were fair for quality and quantity of food. For those reasons I would recommend this restaurant. However, service was not worth my money. The hostess couldn’t find my reservation after I showed her on my phone in my email that it was confirmed with a confirmation number. I had to rebook it infront of her and point out my name on her iPad screen, which she again failed to see. She brought us to the table and walks off. My group didn’t want to sit at the table as it had too much sun hitting the area. I waited for the hostess to come back to take us to another table but she just stood there. So I got up and moved. She took the menus and put them on the table and walked away. She didn’t ask if we were happy with our table or why we moved. She didn’t attempt to accommodate. Finally after being sat, the server came to our table. She didn’t give us her name nor introduce herself. She brought us two green salsas for the tortilla chips. We asked to replace one of the salsas for a red salsa since my fiancé has an allergy to the green salsa. She said we’d be charged an addt’l $2.50 although we wouldn’t be eating the second salsa. We ordered a pitcher of margarita and asked for strawberry flavor. After she put the order in she came back and said we’d be charged as a Wild Rita just for the strawberries. So we checked the menu and saw it was $10 more. She FAILED to mention that to us. I told her we didn’t want it anymore and to give us the regular margarita pitcher. Her response was, “ oh but the bartender is already making it, I put the order in”. I explained to her that she should’ve told us the increased price. She made a face and left and came back and said “so do you want the regular margarita then?” We repeated, YES. Lastly, when it was time for dessert, she asked infront of my mom which dessert we wanted when it was supposed to be a surprise for her birthday. Very disappointed with staff. More

I’ve always had a passion for cooking, but my friends are what made me take it to the next level. Being lucky to have a large group of friends I found that over time some would fall away from the pack. For the best reasons. They fell in love, started families, and moved to the burbs. They were still my friends, they just didn’t keep the same schedule anymore. I was determined not to let that keep me from them! Sometime in 2015, I began the Cooking with INCOGNITO project. I took my love and knowledge of food and delivered it to my friends directly. I called everyone that had kids, a new house, or a new life and I scheduled the time to cook with them one-on-one. I brought everything we would need, pots, pans, groceries, everything! I’d make a meal and catch-up. It was the most rewarding thing I’ve ever done. Now I’ll be providing my services to my neighbors. As the exclusive personal chef to the Ascent at Victory Park.More
