    Quiet and beautiful dining with an amazing view of the Dallas skyline. Our 5 o clock reservation allowed us to catch a great view of the February Dallas sunset and skyline lights! Jack was our server, he mentioned he usually bartends but hes definitely cut out for this role as well! We had the “Knights Templar” - Pinot noir. Relatively inexpensive bottle but worth every drop and paired perfect with our filet, boneless ribeye and lobster tail! DO NOT MISS OUT ON THE BRUSSELS SPROUTS - THEY ARE UNBELIEVABLE! Can’t think of a better place to enjoy an ambience, view, romance and dinner! 10/10

    Mussels were excellent as always - sad twinge to realize it may be the last taste now that this gem is closing. Chopped salad and redfish were great. Bread pudding was out of this world. This is such a GREAT place! Another victim of corporate greed. I will miss y'all Meddlesome Moth! I know it will be hard to replicate elsewhere because some of the charm is embedded in the structure. But I hope you try. Vaya con Dios!

    We had a wonderful meal last night. We had never been to Town Hearth but it was highly recommended by friends. We were not disappointed. The steaks were seasoned and cooked to perfection. The sides were delicious as well. We were told to see if Tim was available, and he was all he was billed to be. Thank you so much for your recommendations Tim! The atmosphere was also amazing. Although a bit on the loud side we were able to overlook that while still having a wonderful time. We highly recommend, and will certainly be looking forward to returning on our next special occasion.
