    This place has gone downhill. Old and grungy in such a short period of time. Waitstaff clueless and needed more help, although drinks were good and food was mid. A shame to see as it was once a very cool, hip place with nice environment.

    First time to Dalia on Ross. Was very satisfied with space, server was awesome and very attentive, ambience was perfect for a Sunday brunch. Food was very delicious and better than we expected. Would surely go again! Visually, a very unique place. Although we ate inside there is a patio for cooler weather. Valet parking was $5.00, to be expected, made the visit easier.

    Food was raw. Had to send steak back to get it cooked more, which was tasteless as well. We couldn’t finish our French toast either because it was disgusting. Drinks were all watered down with lots of ice.

    We arrived about 5 minutes before our reservation and were encouraged to grab a drink at the bar. No sooner do we order, we’re told our table was ready, but I then had to wait on the drinks and close out the tab. Thank goodness we had the drinks when we got to the table though because we waiting for a server to acknowledge us for nearly 20 minutes. That was the theme for the night—lots of waiting and being ignored. The food and drinks were ok—nothing to write home about, but I wouldn’t go back because the service was so poor.

    Food was not what we expected! Very noisy. Atmosphere was cute but we were a group of 6 60-65 years and we were not approached the same as the younger crowd. Also a lot of attitude! I’m sure we didn’t meet their liquor quota!!!!!sorry won’t return☹️

    Honestly, this restaurant is more ambiance and aesthetics than anything. The service was good (although they wouldn’t seat us at a booth that had better lighting), but the food was very mid. It was a little dry and we had to ask for salt, pepper and hot sauce to season ourselves. The only good thing was the French toast which was delicious.

    The restaurant itself has a good vibe and the ambiance was good. We went on a Friday night and it wasn’t busy at all. Our waiter was awesome and our food came out within less than probably 10 min of ordering it. We should have probably all ordered hamburgers as that’s what I ate the previous time I was there and it was good. This time around we ordered the Ratatouille, the Dahlia Pasta and the Chicken Francese and none of us liked our meals. I had the Dahlia pasta and could only eat the pasta, the beef/pork meatballs were completely flavorless. I told the manager about the horrible meatballs and all he could offer me was pepper and then told me that he likes the chef👀. I wasn’t complaining about the chef, and no need to defend him/ her, this particular meals were just a fail and hopefully they do something about it. None of us had any alcohol, but we did all like the hibiscus berry lemonade and the white chocolate panna cotta desert.

    Dahlia Bar and Bistro was phenomenal! Definitely a great place for people in their youth who want a nice vibe. We celebrated my sister’s 21st birthday and the staff was incredible as well! I ordered the creole pasta and it was SO SO good. Overall I would recommend 10/10!

    Ok I didn’t get a chance to finish my last review because I was still at the restaurant and I kept being interrupted by who assume was the manager, over eggs Benedict, that I didn’t want, I told him I would pay for it but I just didn’t want it, and he insisted that I try it and that I can’t just send something back because I no longer want it! Well I was full and the food honestly didn’t appear like it was going to agree with my stomach! I had the choice to say you know what I don’t want it. Not to be lectured about sending food back! WTH, anywho my waitress was phenomenal very understanding, I liked the vibe but the manager, was very abrasive in his demeanor. The Gintinis were delightful and I enjoyed the rest of my day!

    Food is just ok. Drinks are also mediocre. Service was fine. Management tried to ensure we had a good time. So I appreciated that. Ambiance was very cute. I would come here just to maybe take pictures and hang out. I would just prepare yourself for a a meh experience to level set.

    If you want poor service, food that does not meet the standard, and weak management, Dahlia Bistro and Bar is the place to go. The only positive thing about this restaurant is the amazing host team. We were called the day before to be informed that we needed to arrive early for our reservation, this was not an issue us, we arrived early and were seated. The waitress was busy and had one other table. The service was mediocre and she preferred the other table to us, which was rather noticeable. We placed our food order quickly due to the time crunch and enjoyed each other’s company. The food came out, and that was where it all began. We had to send back the short-rib dish because it came out with absolutely no meat. The steak and eggs was cooked well-done, when requested medium, so it too was sent back. The short-rib came back fine, but the steak and eggs was still done incorrectly. The cooks and chefs need to clearly be educated on what a medium steak is supposed to look like. We accepted the dish and kept on enjoying each other’s company. The manager came by, but clearly he could only do so much. Finally we asked for the check and were charged full-price for both dishes. I understand it is a business, but having careless cooks will cost you. We were expecting to have one of the dishes removed, but no instead it was a 50% discount on the dishes. It took about 20-30 min for our checks to make the way back to the table. Finally we left and then waited 30 min for valet, which was not the restaurant fault, but maybe staff valet better. Needless to say it was a disappointing experience, and there are better brunch spots in Dallas with better menu options and service. Don’t waste your time or money dining here, when there are far better options.

    At bar, a automatic 20% gratuity is charged. I added an additional 20% gratuity on to the bill unaware of the automatic debit. I did not appreciate that they did not mention. Bar sales are the most profitable; thus, seems strange that they would automatically add here and not at the tables.

    I had never been to this restaurant and was excited to visit. Upon initial entry it was lovely and I had a reservation so I was hoping to get a table that was near the window - there were a couple of tables open as I surveyed the small boutique restaurant. When they were seating us they chose a table in the middle of the room and I requested if we could have a table that actually was available and more of a booth. It was also more private. When he seated my husband and me, he took us to a different table and set us in a middle table with a couple to our right and another couple to our left even though I had requested the other table that was nearby he just shook his head and said no because the server wasn't available for that table. (it was right next to another table with two people that was being served) This table that he seated us was in the back of the restaurant, no windows, next to the kitchen and very dark. Very awful atmosphere and sitting between two other couples so noisy as well. We then waited to be served. And waited. And waited 15 minutes and while the two couples on our right and left continued to be served, we were completely ignored. I was amazed and very disappointed. Please note that I was not in the least bit disrespectful or rude to anyone I couldn't figure out why we were being ignored. We finally got up and left and on the way out this same man just nodded and smiled and said have a nice day. It was horrifying. Not only that but we will never go back and we are very loyal customers when it comes to a restaurant that we love. We are also good tippers. #fixyourcustomerservice

    Service is everything and unfortunately Dahlia lacked it. It is such a beautiful place but when you have to hunt down the server, fetch your own condiments or eat cold food-the aesthetics really don’t matter anymore. Perhaps they simply are short staffed-our server told us she had 5 tables and seemed overwhelmed although the place was relatively half empty with many servers standing around.

    Went for brunch, drip coffee was only decaf. They could only provide espresso shots, no espresso drinks like lattes or cappuccinos. The food was great and ambience was great. Service was good besides not being able to serve espresso drinks. The valet was only $5 but the service came off a bit inexperienced. They did not take card, only cash app and maybe venmo, the attendant wasn’t even sure what they took besides cash app, so I ended up finding a $5 bill to get out easy, not the best valet experience. I maybe wouldn’t do valet next time or expect coffee at this restaurant for brunch.
