With irreverent takes on indulgent French and Italian dishes, elevated cocktails, rare wines, opulent over the top design and soaring 38-ft. ceilings, Mister Charles is redefining Dallas’ dining and tippling scene.

Located at 3219 Knox St., Mister Charles is open for dinner seven days a week.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Duro Culinary Team

From the OpenTable editors: One of the most glamorous openings of 2023, D Magazine dubbed this Highland Park spot the best among a new wave of luxe restaurants in Dallas. Mister Charles revamped a historic soda fountain and revealed a stunning dining room with black-and-white floors, ornate columns, and crystal chandeliers. The French and Italian menu is just as over the top, riffing on the classics with lobster roll canapés and Texas wagyu Wellington.

    We visited Mister Charles for a birthday celebration (party of 4) and found the experience a mixed bag. Ambiance: The dining area was far too dark, even with two small table lights. The music volume fluctuated between songs, sometimes jarringly loud, and the eclectic mix of styles and tempos didn’t create a cohesive vibe for dining versus a ‘bar’ experience. Service: While polite, the service felt distant and unengaged. We noticed several staff members standing near the kitchen, idle and preoccupied with their phones. Surprisingly, no one checked in to see if we were enjoying the food or if it was prepared to our liking. Food: The Ossetra Caviar and Egg Salad on Toasted Brioche was a standout, as were the Corn and Truffle Beignets. The Little Gem Caesar was good, though trimming more of the stalk would elevate it. However, the Whole Dover Sole with Lobster Beurre Blanc was a major disappointment. At $105, the fish was overcooked and dry, with scant lobster in the beurre blanc. The presentation was lacking — fillets (browned on both sides) were hastily scooped out of the pan with a spoon rather than properly deboned tableside. Other mains were a mix of highs and lows: The Texas Wagyu Short Rib Wellington, while flavorful, was difficult to cut even with a Laguiole steak knife. The 8oz. Painted Hills Filet Mignon was well-cooked and delicious. The Fusilli and Caviar pasta was enjoyable but not outstanding. The Passionfruit Entremet dessert was lovely, but the cocktails were unremarkable. One advertised specialty cocktail was unavailable because the bar lacked lime sherbet—a detail that could have been easily resolved with a quick walk around the corner to Trader Joe’s. Overall: While there were moments of distinction in the food, the experience didn’t live up to the Michelin-starred hype or the high price point. For a special occasion, there are many other dining options in Dallas that offer a more memorable experience.

    Have tired for a long while to get reservations. Family came in for the holiday and was able to snag Sunday evening. Did not disappoint-food was great-service was excellent and what we’ve come to expect from Douro Hospitality concepts. Our table had the corn and truffle beignets (so good!), Ossetra Caviar and Egg Salad, Toasted Brioche, (oh my-yummy with a glass of champagne !) halibut, filet and sides of broccolini, pommes aligot and acorn squash. Did I mention an excellent wine list?? They had it! Would definitely return.

    Overall Mister Charles is a great restaurant. This is our third time to dine there, but not our best. We were seated in a balcony area (not our request) and the vibe was completely different than when seated in the main dining room (near the open kitchen). We had outstanding service and the food was mostly excellent (my wife’s chicken dish was the exception). The overall expectation for us is higher than what was delivered tonight.
