Everything was delicious!! First time here and it was such a vibe!! From the music to the food and the customer service. The service was phenomenal (huge shoutout to our waitress Shardae who was AHMAZING). The tomatoes weren’t tender /ripe enough) but everything was delicious! They even muddled my luxardo cherry upon request in the old fashioned. 10 out of 10. If you’re thinking about going, just go.

My sister and I chose Kitchen + Kocktails for a birthday lunch, and it delivered on every level. Ken was an amazing host—welcoming, attentive, and genuinely made the experience feel special from the moment we arrived. The drinks were fantastic, perfectly balanced and fun. We ordered the seafood platter, and wow—more than enough for a second meal. Fresh, generous, and absolutely worth it. Let’s talk comfort food: 🥞 The waffles melt in your mouth like butter. The grits were hands-down the best we’ve had in a long time—rich, flavorful, and done right. And the atmosphere? Loved it. The vibe, the music, the energy—it’s the kind of place where good food meets a great time. This is officially one of our go-to spots for good food and a fun vibe. Can’t wait to come back. 🥂

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The customer service was exceptional. The manager, Mr. Milton, along with our waitress, Iiesha, were professional, friendly, and very attentive. They ensured all of our needs were met and truly exceeded my expectations, creating a welcoming and pleasant dining experience. The food was outstanding—10/10. I ordered the surf and turf with a side of Caesar salad. The salad was fresh, and the lamb chops and grilled lobster were cooked perfectly and full of flavor. I look forward to returning to try other menu items and would highly recommend this restaurant to friends and family.

Checked out Kitchen + Kocktails on a Friday afternoon with a friend, this place did not disappoint! We ordered a few small bites to share: the shrimp deviled eggs, catfish bites, and a Caesar salad. The flavors were on point, everything came out hot, fresh, and perfectly seasoned, and even the salad, while not homemade, was still totally enjoyable. And the cocktails? Good! And blended well. Beautifully crafted, balanced, and strong enough to let you know they don’t play around. What really made the visit stand out was the staff. From the cooks to the servers, greeters, and even management, everyone we interacted with was welcoming, professional, and genuinely seemed happy to be there. That level of hospitality is rare these days and truly elevated the whole experience. Shout out to our super attentive server Brianna!! If you’re looking for a fun vibe, great food, and top-tier service in Dallas, Kitchen + Kocktails should be on your list! Will definitely be back. Paid for parking directly across the street for $20. No valet here.
