Best Kid Friendly Restaurants in Downtown

My family and I loved the experience. The food was food. One of the best holiday buffets we have been to. Only suggestion would be temperature of food. Most hot items I did from buffet were still cold. Even the steak and ham.

Salads, pizza and chicken pot pie were all winners. Service was attentive, friendly and helpful in navigating the menu. New neighborhood gem!

My husband and I left dinner last night and couldn’t stop talking about how great it was. First of all, the inside is decorated so wonderfully for Christmas… it’s just beautiful! The service was beyond what we’ve had at any other restaurant in the DFW area. Now let’s talk about the food! I don’t even know where to start. We ordered 7 different items and each one was amazing!! My husband said “I think this is the best dinner we’ve had since moving to Texas!”, and that was 6 years ago! 10 out of 10! We will be back!

My only reason for give four stars on the overall category is due to the confusion of booking/making a reservation for this restaurant. We was not aware this is actually TWO different restaurants with "Vino" being on one side, while "Carbone" is on the other side. When I made my reservation - I thought I was reserving for the "Carbone" side (not realizing this was a different restaurant, of course). We had already looked at the menu online and through OpenTable which is the menu for "Carbone". Once our server came out and handed us the menu, we was confused as we did not see anything mentioned online that she was telling us. When we asked her, that is when she explained the difference in the two different restaurants, which we was not aware of. She then informed us we have to get a "reservation" card at the front host stand to email and make a reservation for the "Carbone" side of the restaurant. Said all of that to say - 1) this should be better explained when making a reservation and 2) the restaurant should have both menus easily and most definitely understandable that there are two different menus due to there being two different restaurants right next to one another. The service and food was great - so this does not fall on them - this falls on the owners/management of this establishment.

Everyone at OpenTable was extremely helpful, kind, and gorgeous. I had questions prior to coming in and called earlier, and the host that I spoke with was so friendly and helpful. The food was so good! And I love that any questions we had or any alterations we wanted to make to our plates. The server was extremely helpful and even recommended some of her favorites. THE DRINKS!? Absolutely divine. I had the Ex-Presso Martini and it was so girly and delicious. And I was definitely lit, by the end of that drink, lol I will be back to try their brunch and get some more pics because these scenery and photo ops are so gorgeous that you simply can’t just go without snapping a memory
