    Visited for Mothers Day brunch, food and service were excellent, not cheap but less than similar options on this holiday. Prix fixe menu had a great selections, everything was very well executed - even eggs on the eggs Benedict were perfectly cooked. Great experience overall, have been many times before and will be back.

    Mercat Bistro is still amazing! It’s been open 11 years and in Dallas, that’s hard to do. The food is consistently good and well-prepared. Our waitress Chanel was great. It’s a charming place that also offers outdoor seating. Highly recommend it!

    This restaurant is 100% worth a visit. Best French onion soup in Dallas hands down. Chef Chris is great and our server Timothy made our experience so special. If you have a chance try the tasting menu, its definitely worth it and truly had some amazing authentic French flavors. Bouillabaisse and short rib were some other notably wonderful bites.

    We're lucky to have such an amazing team, Hannah! Our Michelin Tasting Menu is an advantageous option to try smaller versions of some of our hits. We hope you'll dine again with us soon!

    First, Cass/Kass was great! We had a reservation but he shifted a few things around to make room for my wife and I to sit in the Gazebo. Secondly, Don was a fantastic server. Great recommendations, more than pleasant attitude, and very gracious. While an excellent dining experience can elevate the taste of the meal, the food was absolutely on par with the high level of service. One of my new favorites!

    5+++ no, really!! From the moment I pulled up to valet my car, welcomed by wonderful staff. The vibe was amazing in the restaurant; a beautiful Sunday brunch kinda vibe with customers who with large families gathering (grandparents to babies), couples, and those who were eating solo. Our Waiter Anthony was more than attentive and kind. The manager made timely rounds to everyone, and what fun to smell the aroma from the open air kitchen: Devine! 💜

    What a gracious review, Denice! It was a pleasure meeting you both, and we look forward to your next visit.
