    One of many trips to Pappas Bros Steakhouse....always a world class dining experience with perfect service, food ,and wonderful bar and wine list with great sommeliers who help you thru the 1000s of bottles of wine available. I drank 3 different wines by the glass as I was the only wine drinker with a white burgundy and 2 different reds that all were outstanding with the som knowing my particular taste. Honestly the best wine experience in Dallas!! Cant reccommend any finer steakhouse in Dallas ! Looking forward to my return visits....always

    My fiancée and I had the pleasure of dining at Shinsei Restaurant this Valentine’s Day, and we were beyond impressed! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance set the perfect mood. The 90s and 2000s R&B music playing throughout the evening was a fantastic touch – it really added to the vibe and made our night feel special. The food was exceptional – I was truly surprised by how delicious the rice was (better than Benihana’s, which I never thought I’d say)! Every dish we tried was flavorful, and it was clear that quality ingredients were used. Both my fiancée and I had a great time, and we felt truly taken care of. Thank you, Shinsei, for the wonderful experience. We’ll definitely be back for more!
