    I really enjoyed my evening at Truth & Alibi, it starts off as a really cool lounge ala the speak easy concept but throughout the night the energy really begins to climb and you’ll eventually end up feeling like you’re in a ultra nightclub. Bottle service is available as well as table side cocktail service. I’d definitely recommend if you’re looking for a casual speak easy in a unique part of town.

    Friendly welcome upon arrival. Enjoyed our seating area for our time window with tasty cocktails and a cool speakeasy vibe.

    We didn’t even get to experience Truth & Alibi when we were in Dallas. We made reservations for 9pm (which is right when they opened) & we arrived at 9:05 & waited until 9:30 and the door was still locked. Would have loved to experience this place but needing to wait was upsetting. If you open at 9pm and allow reservations for that time you should be ready to go and allow your customers in.

    Making a reservation is a waste of time. We booked a table but they really didn't have a place for us. We stayed all of 5 mins and left. Don't waste your time as there are a lot better places in Deep Ellum to go to.

    I made reservations weeks before hand and the night of the reservation they had a private event going on so if you wanted to pay $26 to enter plus $386 for a bottle you could go in. We didn’t go in and It would have been nice if we knew ahead of time that we weren’t getting in and our reservation was canceled.

    Friends from out of town wanted an interesting and adventurous night. Truth & Alibi is always a good spot to take fun energetic people. The atmosphere and the drinks are always a conversation starter.

    Gave a rating of "good" for food as we didn't eat there, but the entertainment and drinks were great! Had a great time checking out the place. Small but comfy chairs and great music and fun!
