    An Unforgettable Dining Experience! I recently had the pleasure of dining at Perry’s and it was truly exceptional. From start to finish, everything about the experience was flawless. The food was outstanding—each dish was a perfect blend of flavors, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. The service was just as impressive. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and made us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in. They ensured every detail was taken care of without being intrusive. The ambiance added to the experience, with its elegant decor and relaxing atmosphere, making it the perfect setting for a special evening.

    Alenxander was an amazing server, and we appreciate how attentive he was. The atmosphere was pleasant, and we enjoyed our food. The filet seems a bit overpriced, but we enjoyed our food overall.

    A New Neighborhood Favorite! Pillar Bistro exceeded all expectations. The service was exceptional from start to finis. To kick it off the Zero Degrees martini and espresso martini we had at the bar was the perfect start to the evening. The Hamachi and Apple and Beef Tartare were fresh and flavorful, the Grilled Leeks had a rich, smoky depth, and the Fried Chicken was perfectly crispy and delicious . We finished with the Coconut Cream Pie, which cannot be skipped. Pillar is a fantastic addition to the neighborhood and easily one of the best restaurants in Dallas. Highly recommend! Already can’t wait to go back.

    Congratulation to Jon Stevens and his team on being named a Recommended Restaurant by the MICHELIN Guide 2024 for Texas. Since my first dinner here, I have always thought that everything about Stock & Barrel is exceptional - the food, the service, the atmosphere. We had another great meal last night and I look forward to many more.
