    Excellent food and service! Everything was creatively prepared for maximum flavor and appearance. Our server was very attentive and accommodating to our schedule. The oyster appetizer was exceptional as were both fish dishes we tried (redfish and char) and the duck confit was really excellent. The bread pudding should not be missed. Excellent values in the wines by the glass and in the bottle and unusual and well-paired wines for a splurge. Parking was no problem. I would make the trip from Dallas again just for this restaurant.

    We're suckers for French Burgundy, so had to imbibe a Batard-Monrachet and a Clos Du Tart with the excellent food. You don't see a Batard on many lists and it lived up to expectations. The food was well executed and presented. Our server Ian was suitably gregarious and helpful, and Cory popped the wines and took care of business with finesse. It was a prix fixe menu for New Year's Eve, but still some options. We'll definitely be back when we get back to Fort Worth to hit the regular menu.

    Unfortunately the service was poor and the redfish was cold and dry. I went at least 15 minutes without water or a refill of my wine. The waiter said he would be right back to refill my drinks and never came back. Hopefully this was just a glitch as we truly love this restaurant and have been going for years.

    Went for the new years dinner, which was a special event for myself and my partner. Wine selection is very large, but severely over-priced. The food lacked balance and needed salt and acid in both the vegetarian and meat dishes. Dessert was too sweet and would have been better served with fruit to break up the sugary cake. I would go back for the regular menu, but would not recommend this place for New Years

    As always the food was on point. We started by splitting the sauteed oysters. Very nice blending of flavors with the prosciutto and oysters. My wife had the buffalo bolognese and I had the baseball steak. My steak was cooked to perfection. Nice pink center with just a touch of salt to the outside of the steak. All in all, a very wonderful meal.

    My bride treated me to dinner at my favorite DFW restaurant for my birthday - Ellerbe Fine Foods. The cuisine was wonderful - she enjoyed the Confit of Duck and I thought the Braised Water Buffalo Bolognese was fabulous! As always, the wine selection was difficult, given the number of outstanding selections at reasonable prices. While I was tempted by WIne Spectator’s #1 wine of 2022 (the 2019 Schrader Double Diamond Cabinet Sauvignon), I opted for a better pairing: the 2017 Louis Jadot Gevrey-Chambertin. And, since wine list bottles are available at retail prices to go, we took home the Schrader as well! Oh yeah, the Maw Maw’s Bread Pudding with coffee will make a perfect ending to any dinner at Ellerbe’s, as it did for us last night.

    The food really tasted good. My wife thought there was a little fattiness to the buffalo but it was good. Our waiter was excellent. He knew the foods, the wines and what to pair with our food. He made some good recommendations. I had the Arctic Char and it was great. My ONLY singular thing that didn't have me hitting 5 stars was portion size. I felt like for the price, another inch of fish and a little more meat in my wife's dinner it would have made it a superb value. I didn't go away hungry and I didn't go away full but the protein size for the price is a little lower than I would like. The rest of the accompanying food/sides doesn't cost much to make. So the protein portion should be of value. I'd eat there again, don't get me wrong.

    Did valet parking for my mother’s 87th birthday and since it was raining. The valet had a umbrella and didn’t make any attempt to provide some protection for my mother. I had to get the umbrella out while he stood and waiting for me to escort my mother in. Seems like a common curiosity to be expected for valet parking.

    Try finding a menu like this anywhere. It is always changing. Locally sourced ingredients. Everything is great. The staff lives fine food and has mastered providing a great dining experience down to the smallest detail. Go prepared to struggle deciding what to eat. From the appetizer to the main course to desert, you will want more than one thing from each course. The wine list is outstanding. Don't expect to find the usual suspects of restaurant wine. This list is diverse and great.

    The evening was an incredibly special event with family in town for Thanksgiving. I asked my husband where he wanted to celebrate and he insisted on Ellerbe Fine Foods. The food was inspired and delicious. The wine list is encyclopedic. The Somm, Cory, was incredibly knowledgeable and found the perfect wines for us! The evening could not have been any more perfect!

    From a colleagues recommendation , we dined at Ellerbe and were very pleased with the entire experience. 1. This is fine dining and you sense that from the moment you walk in. Very inviting, elegant décor and warm greeting. 2. The menu is small but still we were presented with a number of choices. The server was very passionate about the menu items as well as praising the chef for her creativity and food quality. 3. Value. Since is this what I consider fine dining the prices reflect this but well worth it. 4. I highly recommend the bread pudding (family recipe). 5. Wine list was impressive.

    This was our first date night out in a long time and it was perfect! We both work full time jobs as well as raise a very rambunctious 3 year old so we needed a break. We found Ellerbe through a Google search and decided to try it. We’re not real big into fancy or fine dining, but Ellerbe didn’t make us feel out of place at all. It really was a great balance of farm-to-table style with a fine dining experience. The food was amazing and our server, Santino, was personable and very kind. Ellerbe is our new date night spot for sure! We have to go back to try more of the menu. The pear arugula salad, the gulf shrimp, the roasted quail and the redfish was absolutely delicious. And the bread pudding is *chefs kiss*. Thank you to the Ellerbe staff, y’all made us feel special and you all did a wonderful job. (As former restaurant employees, we feel for everyone in the service industry because we know it can get rough sometimes!) We’re already telling our friends & family they have to visit and can’t wait to have another chance for a night out.

    The restaurant provides very creative dishes that are excellently prepared. Service is consistently great. My lower than average score for ambience relates to being seated in a tiny table in the corner. This is not unique to Ellerbe’s but it’s where I was seated on this visit. The restaurants that seat me in the open areas with a decent size table, will always get a higher rating from me and more of my dining dollars. That being said, I really like this place.

    Once again, we enjoyed an exceptional dinner at my favorite restaurant in the metroplex. Our appetizers and entrées were as unique as they were delightful. And our server, Justin, had a precise description for every item on the menu (this is one of Ellerbe’s strong suits - their servers really know the menu, and enjoy helping you narrow down your choice). Another strong suit is the wine list, on which we were able to find one of my all-time favorite white wines, the R. Lopez de Heredia Viña Tondonia (2010), at a reasonable restaurant price.
