    Great spot. People were very friendly and the food was spot on. Wines were too expensive and they could have offered more at a more reasonable price point. Highly recommended.

    I am so disappointed. We frequent the Duro restaurant, Sister, on a regular basis and expected the same great service. We waited ten minutes for the sommelier as we sat with nothing but water. Our order was incorrect, when we ordered the wine (finally) they didn’t bring it to our table. We had to pour our own wine, remind them of orders and then the check came…they charged us for a wine tasting and the incorrect order of oysters. I complained and they took it off the bill. It was so uncomfortable-it was my husbands birthday (which I told them in advance) but could not even order dessert. Will never return.

    We celebrated our anniversary here and had a wonderful experience- from the very nice valet named Oliver to our sweet hostess and our great server Chelsea. Our food was delicious and Nate the personable manager stopped by our table to say Happy Anniversary. It was a really nice evening. We sat next to another anniversary couple and we all agreed it was the perfect spot to celebrate.

    The food was excellent, especially the shrimp pasta! Service was some of the best we have ever had, from the host, manager, bartender to our incredible server, Rome. It was a fabulous experience from beginning to end. Don’t miss the speakeasy!

    This restaurant has been on our “hit list” for awhile, it was definitely worth the wait, but don’t! We were eagerly welcomed by Nate, the maiitre d, who was equally pleasant and accommodating. We chose to sit at the bar which was fun and both bartenders were awesome. We dined on the grilled octopus, salad and fusilli, all delicious and innovative, flavors were exquisite. Be aware that the place is rocking, VERY energetic “city vibe” so if you are not up for loud you might choose a more romantic atmosphere elsewhere. The speakeasy was a great place for bubbles 🥂 post dinner. Thank you for a wonderful evening!

    Nate was very welcoming. He sat us in the best table in the house. I was impressed how much the staff knew when they presented our dishes. They went over what the dish was pointed out individual items in the dish for us. Arione (our server) couldn’t have been better. She discussed the menu and wine list and helped us make some great decisions.

    This is what you wish for in a restaurant experience. I am a major foodie and this hit all the marks. So fabulous. The food is delicious and beautifully presented. The service and food could not be better. It’s the kind of restaurant where you always have service but they’re discreet about it.!!! Servers are very friendly, informed and attentive. The wine sommelier perfectly suggested a wine similar to my guest’s favorite. He was amazing!!! The Manager was also very attentive and lovely. He sensed one of my smallest curiosities about a cocktail request I made and delivered all my wishes without me saying a word to him. That was impressive!  If this wasn’t enough, you can be shuffle through the kitchen through a private door into this fabulous speakeasy with the best playlist for your nightcap. Just mmmmm all around! Cheers to the best in experience in Dallas. Thank you The Charles Team:)! A must repeat!
