    Our server Ana was exceptional! She helped our with deciding on food choices but giving very accurate descriptions for us to help us decide. She was very friendly and made sure we enjoyed the food we ended up picking. Ambience is great. Good brunch place!!

    Table/booth tables were the only options for seating. Service was very slow. Ordered the tacos and the tortillas were rubbery. My friend tried to order 2 different drinks on menu- but they were ‘out’. Guacamole that I paid extra for wasn’t fresh- a paste. Took too long for check and to pay- but restaurant not even half full and staff just standing around. No restroom- had to go outside….inside building commercial building. Would not go here again. Also received an email after to confirm I showed up. I’ve never had that happen.

    Space is okay. Weird set up between bar and main dining room. Sat at the bar. Bar service was okay. Not overly friendly or informative. Food was slow to come out…tacos and a salad for the two of us. Tacos were good. Salad was made wrong and ended up getting comp’ed. We were on our way to Stars game and parking is free at the Hilton Garden Inn when purchasing food at ElmCreek, so we opted in and hoofed it 1 mile to AAC. Easy walk.

    Food was great and came out quick. Waitress helped us with recommendations. They did forget my side, even after I asked again after the food came out. Once the bill came they removed the item without issue.

Anna was the absolute best at meeting every need to make my birthday brunch a success, being that it was my first time visiting this restaurant. Thanks again Cask & Kitchen for an awesome experience.

    It was not what the description really portrayed. Food was not very hot and got a little bit of an upset stomach after eating there.

    We just got an appetizer and drinks. I asked the waitress if the crisp green beans were like fried green beans and she said yes but they definitely were not. Luckily, they were delicious and so were the drinks. Drinks were pricey for the size I thought but they were good. It’s not a super dressy place but the ambience is nice. Not too loud either except for maybe when a game is on at the bar 😉 overall good experience though

    Elm Street Cask & KitchenResponded on January 4, 2023Hi MorganL! We are thrilled you had a good experience! Thanks for your feedback on how we can improve our service. We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and hope you'll dine with us again!

    Host and waitress were nice. Our waitress was not 21, so she could not recommend drinks. Our food was okay. We had to battle giant fruit fly ninjas during our entire dinner. Very uneventful New Year dinner.

    It was Christmas day, from the host to our server, and everyone in between and around, the service was impeccable. My mom just started chemo recently and preferred to be seated somewhere away and we forgot to make that request when making the reservation. They were quick to accommodate and continued their top-notch service throughout the rest of the meal. All the food was OK and definitely better than average. If anything, the prime rib was quite the tough chew. Everything else was very good. My mom left Happy, and really at the end of the day, that’s all that mattered. Thank you and your staff for providing such exceptional service throughout the entire restaurant. Others should most definitely take your examples and standards.

    This restaurant is in the bottom floor of a luxury hotel. There are great happy hour specials and the food is very good for a hotel restaurant. Our waiter was the best. He was personable and when I inquired about a liqueur that was in my drink, he brought the bottle over and brought me a sample of it as well. Now that’s service. We felt right at home while traveling out of town.

    My husband and I went here for our anniversary. We caught a Lyft just to make it easier navigating in and out of Downtown Dallas. But there is a parking garage at the hotel next to the restaurant. As most restaurants in this area, this restaurant is located inside of a tower. Once you walk in, the ambiance is chic yet comfortable. The lighting provides a warm atmosphere. There’s plenty of seating both in the dining area and near the bar. It did take a little time for our waiter to come but it didn’t appear to have many staff on hand. My husband had a Paloma which he said was good. He did say there was no skimping on the alcohol. We had the Shrimp and Corn gumbo fritters and the Calamari fries. These were both fried appetizers and absolutely delicious. The gumbo fritters had lots of flavor but weren’t too spicy. The Calamari fries were extremely tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. For dinner, we had Crab stuffed shrimp and the special which was Tortellini pasta in cream sauce with shrimp. Both were delicious and fresh. The shrimp was tender and not overcooked. I would absolutely recommend this place and look forward to going back again soon.

    They style themselves as a whiskey bar and restaurant, but no longer have a meaningful whiskey selection. This struck me as a hotel restaurant that probably had a good start and then wasn’t valued enough to maintain its origin story.

    We made reservations online at 11AM on Monday 8/22 and were staying at the Hilton as well. When we got there, we were told the resteraunt was closing at 11AM until 4PM with clients on the way to meet us! We were not happy to say the least but RJ made a decision that changed our day! Just as we approached the front desk for help, RJ said he could accommodate us and we had an amazing breakfast with outstanding service! He attended to our group personally, our cups were always full, food was hot and he never interrupted our conversation all with a smile! It's very refreshing to see people like RJ take ownership of a potentially bad situation and find a way to go above and beyond expectations to make great memories! Thank you for the excellent service, we truly appreciate your help 🙏

    We had a 5PM reservation. When we entered the restaurant, it was virtually empty except for one table and a few folks at the bar. After waiting at the hostess desk for 15 minutes, my husband went to the bar to request assistance. We were seated and given menus. I requested a bourbon menu as it's one of the key selling points of the restaurant and was told they do not have one right now as they are undergoing changes. Service was slow, very few patrons- but the food itself was excellent.

    Our server Devin was amazing, very attentive, great recommendations, he topped off ab already amazing dinner! The Moscow mule & hot toddy were great. I had the calamari and tried my friends fried cauliflower, both were really good but the calamari was my favorite of the two. The smash burger was right up there too & hit the spot! Highly recommend and will be back soon.

    It was great food for what they had available. They were out of a lot of staple items people are coming for like the gumbo or the fried cauliflower. They were also out of lemonade. I wish they had access to some of those things otherwise what we did have was delicious the seasonings are different but delicious nevertheless

    When we got there we were surprised to learn they had a very limited menu for Valentines. The reason we booked there is because we were assured the regular menu would be available. The tablecloth was stained. The appetizer platter had been sitting out so long that when served the cheese was dark, dry, and crusty. The olive was dry. The salami roll ups were hard. The salad was ok. The steak was inedible. So tough that we couldn’t eat over half of it. The desserts were ok. It was the servers first night so we were extra patient but I really just wanted to cry as I was trying to make it a special evening.

    Staff extremely rude. We had a reservation. Which was not honored to say the least. We were not seated for over 30 minutes despite ample seats. The part that was unacceptable was the host’s attitude. We were very polite and he was not. We did not eat because by the time we sat it was clear that we’d be waiting a long time for food and we had tickets to a show. Understand that they were understaffed but again, the attitude was not ok.
