Very good place!!! Service was good and fast and great variety of beer, food was very good as well. The only downside was the cost of the sausage sandwich. A little overpriced for the size.

It sounds like you had a fantastic time at the venue! A nice outdoor area, indoor seating, and a rooftop bar offer a variety of options for enjoying the atmosphere. Delicious cocktails and good food added to the experience, despite the busyness of the place. While parking may have been a bit of a challenge, it's great that you found a solution nearby. Thanks for sharing your experience!

First visit 5-4-24. Visited day after 22nd anniversary.
Seen this place on Instagram, like many others, but it was 12pm and heading to a usual spot and wanted something new..
Walking in we loved the feel and the vibe of the place, because you know, if you don't feel it most likely you won't like it. Games on on all the tvs, good music playing, nice and cold inside, and one thing I really liked is that it was spacious between tables all around.
Ordered fried pickles, wings, and a normal cheese burger with fries.
Fried pickles: good taste, they were not all covered in batter, which I liked. Wife tried them with ranch and loved the thickness of ranch. Got a side of Buffalo sauce, but I wasn't pleased with the taste. I couldn't seem to find what it tasted like, and after so much of it, I could barely eat it. Maybe too vinegary and sweetness too it.
Burger and fries: very tasteful. Meat looked like fresh beef, not some frozen stuff. It was juicy and tasted great. And the fries were amazing, almost like some thick curly fries, they were soft but yet crispy at the same time.
Wings: Ordered lemon pepper with a side of Buffalo sauce (before I tried it). Wings were a reasonable size, steaming hot, and juicy. Not overwhelming with lemon pepper, which is a plus, and still dipped it Buffalo sauce to get the feeling of Buffalo wings. Still good, but won't get Buffalo.
With all said, I will definitely come back and try a different item, but probably not I'm a wing person.

Super fun place! Nice outdoor area, indoor seating and rooftop bar. The cocktails we got were absolutely delicious! The food was good too. Very busy. Parking was a little difficult to find but the metered parking a couple streets down was super cheap. Valet is available should that be your choice. Booth seating as well as high tables. You can also reserve a private booth with a personal tv. The food was overpriced but it was still good. I would say you’re paying more for the vibe than the anything. I am looking forward to going back for the rooftop bar!

Great night out with family... tried the party nachos. 😋 Didn't look too worried when they brought them out, delicious toppings, and plenty to go around each chip. We thought..." we've got this. These nachos are going down!!" After a very good attempt, the nachos Won 🏆 😋. Great service,great food, and great screens!! 👍🏻 Definitely recommend 👌 #nachonight #happiesthour

My husband and I traveled to Dallas, TX to see Anita Baker in concert. One of the restaurants near our hotel was Happiest Hour. The restaurant looked busy! They have indoor, outdoor, upper level private parties and several other rooms reserved for friend and family holiday parties! It was really cool. The atmosphere was decorated with Christmas lights. The music was loud, which made it very difficult to have a conversation without leaning forward to screaming across the table.

I paid $40 for a soft pretzel. My first thought was, “wow, $40, for a pretzel!?!? It better be worth it.” Well, it definitely was the largest pretzel I’ve ever shared with my friends and family at a restaurant. It was super soft and the cheese, horseradish and creamy glaze dip was plentiful and tasty. If you are out with a group of friend, I recommend sharing this pretzel.

We also ordered some wings to share with everyone. The Jerk and Garlic Parmesan flavors were delicious!

The large pretzel and wings filled us up so we never got around to ordering an actual meal. Trust me, you won’t need to order more food.

We also ordered a large Modelo drink to share. It came in a tall beaker dispenser. It was really cool.

Stop and check Happiest Hour out when you are in Dallas, TX. Very cool and hip atmosphere.

The place itself is beautiful especially during the daytime. The patio and the colorful red chairs.
However, my one star comes to the rude staff encounters. I don't like to go to bars anymore for this exact reason. If I want to exchange or modify my drink it shouldn't be reason for a bartender to shame and ignore me. It's super unprofessional and almost ruined the experience for me.

I told the manager how I felt and she was super sweet so I appreciate her listening to me.

Hopefully no one else experiences this.
No one deserves that.

Fun place to watch games & hang with friends in Dallas! Their food is decent, but the drinks could be better. It’s always a good vibe though.
