Best Restaurants Open for Newyears Eve this year in Grapevine – 2024

Winewood is a great spot for brunch and I highly recommend this restaurant. It’s better to make a reservation since the place gets real busy especially over the weekend. There is a live band inside the restaurant with patio seating as well. There are interesting cocktails on the brunch menu along with a bottle of sparkling wine option. The tenderloin bruschetta and Smoked Gouda Mac were great appetizers. Everyone enjoyed the main course at our table. The steak was cooked right but not one of the best flavors and is the only reason for the 4 stars. The Texas Size Cinnamon Roll tasted great and can feed a large table. Pricing : Moderate Will I return? : Definitely. It’s made it to my favorite brunch spots.

The staff here was incredibly welcoming right from the start. We had a reservation and were seated right away. The ambiance is upscale but still relaxed—not too formal. The tomahawk ribeye was amazing, and the Brussels sprouts were just as good. Our server, Julia, was great—attentive without hovering. The only small downside was that the kitchen was a bit slow, and it took about 45 minutes for our food to come out. Other than that, everything was fantastic!

Overall an enjoyable experience . . . however so close to 5 stars and yet so far away. The positive followed by negative across our experience. Arrived 8 minutes ahead of reservation and told to hang out and would receive a text when ready to seat us "closer to our reservation time" only to never get a text and ultimately check in and be seated 10 minutes after the reservation. Attractive but a bit dated environment, however, on a Saturday night incredibly loud with many large parties making it hard to carry on a conversation. Took a very long time for a bottle of wine to start only to be offered a different bottle than ordered. Highlight of the evening was the main course, however, the lobster ravioli arrived room temperature (refire was fantastic but staggered the meal). Noted a special occasion on reservation but such was never acknowledged by anyone. Plating and presentation of food was strong throughout all courses. Best course was the entree course. Seafood trio was the best of the best. Will be back to give Winewood a second try. Perhaps a less busy night will yield a more consistent experience from start to finish.

Took a couple extra days after a business trip to explore around the hotel and the city of Dallas. We found this place on Google maps, I didn't even look at the reviews, it just felt authentic. Tollbert's did not disappoint. My wife said the chili was the best she's ever had, restaurant or homemade. We also ordered the jalapeno corn bread muffins and they were an absolute delight. There seems to be live music every night and the band that night was really good. Great atmosphere, out of this world service and overall a real gem of a place!! Definitely plan to bring a group with me next time we are in the area for work.

Soooo much loved this place! Perfect for my solo dining experiences while traveling to new places I entered quite last on a Tuesdtnight attracted by the special burger of the day that was written on the outside board. Once in, I asked some questions to understand if it was a good option for me. The waiter (Cole if I remember correctly?) first tried to understand my taste and then gently suggested a couple of options that he believed would have satisfied my desire. And got it right! The burger was super tasty, sumptuous. And it felt as Texan as I could have imagined. The fries on the side were also super tasty and very well cooked. After the first beer I wanted to try something different. He offered to bring me 3 samples to choose the right one. I loved that in both cases the waiter served me the food saying a warm "welcome to Texas". He also spent time talking with me at the end. I appreciated that he dedicated equivalent time to 2 kids in the restaurant that seemed to adore him. I didn't have any space left for dessert or I would have certainly ordered one. The interior of the place was very nice. Welcoming & comforting. The band was at their second night on that stage and was quite decent, certainly engaging and seemed to have a lot of fun. Nice surprise at the end: an incredibly cheap bill compared to any other place I have been recently in Dallas or another large city like New Orleans. I recommended the place to all of my colleagues!

The food and service were excellent. Loved the chicken fried steak and the Texas red chili.

Absolutely amazing ambience and the food is always delicious. Steaks are done to perfection and the staff is always so friendly and polite. The chefs are very skilled and very nice . We always come here for birthdays and holidays and whenever we are in the mood for a really good steak dinner . I love this place and highly recommend it.

This is a great spot to have dinner. The Pat’s steak is great and very affordable. Servers were exceptional, and food came out at a reasonable time. An overall five out of five experience.

Pat’s Ribeye was cooked to perfection at medium. The flavor and texture were phenomenal. The Mac n Cheese needs more cheese and butter to loosen it up. Now the r Carrot Cake is a huge piece of heavenly delight. The service was great, Tony, the manager was very friendly and checked to ensure we were having a good experience. The only down side to the service is it’s a bit on the slow side, had to wait a while on silverware, water, bread, and the check. But I’d come back overall.

We had an amazing time! Our daughters were mesmerized by the environment. We had a fantastic waiter and football was on the TV. The food was 5 stars. I don't remember the name of my tropical drink- but I only needed one. It was delicious! Great BAR!

Such a cool and unique experience! The food was good, and the service was amazing, but the environment is definitely what makes it worth it to at least come once! I've came once before as a kid on a school trip and remembered everything so well that I knew I had to take my kids to make a core memory with them as I did with friends It's pricey to dine here, but the smiles on my kids' faces make it all worth it! I HIGHLY recommend for families, especially birthdays

Workers were very sweet, went here for my one year olds first birthday. Both of my kids loved the decorations and the atmosphere around. I would say that the prices are rather high seeing as we payed around $200 for a party of 4 plus a small child. They are definitely willing to sing happy birthday and my baby enjoyed the cake they brought out for her birthday desert. They have good drink options and there’s a section in the menu where you can keep any cup that you order a drink in which is pretty nice. Their pasta is pretty good and they have a lot of options and flavors for different foods, they are very accommodating and the food is up to expectations. The pasta my daughters shared was good and it had nice flavors, would not recommend the side platter unless you’re getting just ribs. The bread that came with the pasta was hard and near flavorless, my daughter almost broke a bracket but that’s really the only down side, other than that the food and service was wonderful.

Loved the place! The food is amazing. Besides being delicious and flavourful, the protein portions are impressively large. The cocktail was well-made and strong and their wine list is extensive. Our charming waiter made us feel welcomed from the very first minute and made the whole experience even better. I really enjoyed our dinner and looking forward to coming back.

Went on a double date with friends this evening and this was our very first time at PIAF. We ended up ordering the braised lamb shank, paella, charred cauliflower, mushroom risotto, and brussel sprouts to share. The food was exceptional, and the service was attentive. We will definitely be coming back to try something new!

LOVE Piaf! I’ve been twice and stayed on the patio upstairs both times. There’s great live music that really helps with ambiance and bring good vibes. We got the shrimp and octopus appetizer - our favorite! HIGHLY recommend keeping the sauce for dinner. We also got the Caesar salad, really good as well. For dinner we got Paella and mussels. The paella was good and great leftover. The mussels came with a TON for only $20 - but I did prefer the sauce from the octopus shrimp better than the mussels sauce. We got the tiramisu since we were celebrating something - also great. For drinks, I got the strawberry mule - a bit too sweet for me. And my boyfriend got a dirty martini.

Christmas time is here in grapevine! Our waiter was so helpful & kind! We went for Christmas photos & dropped in for a warm meal & a Christmas drink! We loved the Christmas cookie martini so much we asked for the recipe & our waiter asked the bartender & even let us take pictures of the ingredients! Inside is cozy & already festive. Nice classy music playing & warm comforting Italian food. It is Located right on Main street in downtown Grapevine. The fried mozzarella had lots of cheese for us cheese lovers!

We went for a late lunch and started with the Brussels sprouts. They were good but lacked flavor. For the entrée, I had the lasagna with a side salad, and my husband ordered the Italian sandwich with homemade chips. Unfortunately, they were out of chips, so they substituted them with French onion soup. Both dishes were tasty and delicious. The server was superb. I'm giving it a four star due to the Brussels lacking flavor.

I recently dined at this Italian restaurant and had an outstanding experience. The taste of the dishes was fabulous, each bite bursting with authentic Italian flavors. Their wine selection was impressive, perfectly complementing the meal and enhancing the overall dining experience. With delicious food and a great wine list, this place is a must-visit for anyone craving an exquisite Italian dining experience. Highly recommended

It was our first time here and we were excited to try their dishes. We got our drinks, chips and salsa after waiting for about five minutes. The salsa was HOT and very tasty. Jose JR was our server and he did an absolute, fantastic job. We ordered our food and it came out fairly quickly. I had the chicken fajitas and they were delicious. Everyone really enjoyed their food. I would definitely come back and try some different dishes. I would definitely recommend this place for authentic Mexican food lovers!

Stopped after the grapefest. Sat quickly and place was busy but seemed to get busier by the minute. Nice patio and table was a little tight / small for me but not a show stopper. Service was great by many and they had many on hand. The dishes came out quickly. Looked great and tasted even better. The chicken taco salad was moist chicken. Added some salsa and there wasn’t much left. Good value too.

My friend and I were in the neighborhood and were looking for something good to eat. Found this and it was a good dining experience. Fish was cooked perfectly and well seasoned. I love the alfresco, and they were efficient and fast.

This restaurant had a good atmosphere, and we had a nice waiter that was very informative on their cuisine. However, the food was very disappointing. Everything lacked flavor and just did not live up the hype. My son’s chicken fried steak came with a black obvious hair cooked into it which the waiter apologized for and expedited a new one cooked. However, no one asked if he wanted a complementary dessert or even comped that dish due to this situation, so that was a little strange. I would say another interesting thing to be aware of is the salad is definitely not complementary. The waiter asked if we wanted a house salad and bread and we said, of course, not knowing it was $5 a person for the salad which definitely was not worth the price. Informing customers there is an up charge for items is essential. My wife got the grilled shrimp and subbed quinoa brown rice for the white rice, and it was overcooked. The star of the show was my daughter’s kid chicken strip and fries’ plate.

We went for brunch and it was a great experience! There was a lot to choose from for my husband and I and our kids. They even serve fruit and tiny cinnamon rolls as part of the meal. Will definitely be back.

Mother’s Day lunch. Picked an invisible spot outside Dallas for a great experience. So much rain on Mother’s Day but didn’t drown the touches Mac’s made happen. The Cinnamon buns/fruit app off the bat no expectations was something I feel puts this place in top 5 Grapevine. Service was great and busy morning she really shined. Every plate was well done and enjoyed the atmosphere and service.

I don’t live nearby, but whenever I fly into town I MUST come to Ferrari’s restaurant. They never disappoint. This time I was greeted by a great server, Michael. He was very attentive as I was sitting in the casual 3 Barrels part of the restaurant. He took care of me all the way, making sure my glass was always full and giving good food selections. The pizza had an excellent pillowy-crisp crust, the noodles were perfectly homemade and cooked just right, and the wine was tasty as always…

Francesco and Jane are fantastic and charming proprietors of an incredible restaurant! Our meal was perfect, and the experience was utterly delightful. Ferrari's is now our favorite part of Texas!

Wife and I went for our 5 year anniversary. Not only was the food AMAZING, but Oscar really made the night special. If I could give 10 stars I would. The atmosphere was elegant and very upscale.

Nice Tex Mex place with very friendly staff! Nice atmosphere- with outdoor seating. Went for a couple of margaritas- good hangout. Next time I will order food. They do have good chips & salsa. Both served warm. Good food.

Very fast service with generous portions. There is a lot of seating inside and outside and we came during the lunch rush on a Friday and we’re seated with no wait. Huge menu with lots of options. Big fan of the warm chips and salsa before the meal as well.

Please follow us on Facebook and Instagram at SNDTRAVELS and EATWELLTRAVELOFTEN 11.11.24 lunch Set outside on the nice front patio enjoying a beautiful day. First time here and cheese enchiladas with chili con carne, rice and beans are my must pass test for any Mexican food restaurants. I also added a beef fajita taco to try. Diane had the chicken enchiladas with sour cream sauce. Starting out, the chips and salsa were good and fresh. All of the rest of the food was well prepared and the beef was average tender. The big problem was that we both were underwhelmed with the flavors. Just not much in, really, all of it. The food was not bad, just not taste satisfying. The service was good and the atmosphere was nice. I would not be afraid to try it one more time, but I might bring my own seasoning. Can't give it two thumbs-up or two thumbs down.

We had a fun date night at Harvest Hall tonight. It was our first time to the food hall and Dock Local was our top pick. We really liked the grinder roll and garlic lobster fries. I decided on the fish and chips which was very good, but I preferred the lobster roll. Overall, it's a neat concept and we enjoyed the experience.

I was surprised and happy to see a seafood place at Harvest Hall. The hall is such a fun place, and there are so many great food choices. Everyone can get what they like! Had the lobster roll. I enjoyed the sweet bread and the pickles with it. While my companions said “real” lobster roll back east have more lobster, I thought there was a good ratio of lobster to bread. I can’t wait to try the tacos and other seafood.

The lobster rolls were perfect, loved the melted butter on the side so I could drizzle to my hearts’ desire. My family went nuts over the lobster nachos with the creamy habanero sauce. Absolutely recommend!

First time coming to this cafe really love the building they have delicious jumbo shrimp fettuccine pasta and their calamari is so damn good!!! Highly recommended to come try the food!!!

Amazing food and service! Granted, we went at 4pm, so it wasn't crazy busy, there were about 5 other tables there. The food was amazing, except for the butter they provide for their bread. I got eggplant parm & my husband got a Tortellini dish. We both loved it! Highly recommend!

The dining experience here is exceptional! The service was impeccable from the time we stepped in the door. The food was fresh and delicious. The ambiance was very inviting. I have a dairy issue, and they were very accommodating. This was my first time dining here based on a friend's recommendation. She was right! I now have a favorite restaurant!

One of the best meals I’ve had in a really long time! Went here for an intimate date night and waiter Nick was above and beyond. He did a magic trick for us, which was awesome, and the food was fantastic. Cannot say enough good things!! Got the escargot, stuffed mushrooms, and tortellini vodka with the chicken special. Highly recommend! PS- It was BYOB so we got to bring our own bottle and they brought out an iced bucket to keep it nicely chilled. New favorite Italian in DFW!

We consider ourselves Italian snobs and were blown away by the atmosphere, welcoming attitude, food and incredible service by our server Albert. The mozzarella sticks come with a marinara sauce that was an amazing preview of things to come. I had the spaghetti and meat sauce, suggested by Albert and he was right, and my wife had the tortellini Michelangelo. As you can see in the pics our meals were phenomenal and hearty. The portions were loving and generous. Nothing was too salty or rich. It took us forever to get through our meal because we wanted to savor every bite. It was nostalgic and inspiring as we ate and bonded over the food. The tiramisu and coffee at the end was the perfect conclusion to our first but certainly not last experience here. I truly don’t know what else to say about the vibe and exquisite dining at Cafe Italia. Get there early for dinner, it fills up quickly and for good reason. We’ve already planned our next meal here. Enjoy!

Adorable, cozy Italian eatery. My husband and I ventured to this restaurant at the recommendation of a friend. Sadly, the resident magician was not working when we went, but we were very pleased with our dinner. The service was excellent. We did not wait for anything. We were even given two slices of complimentary bruschetta. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, and the food was exceptional. This is a BYOB restaurant with lots of tables sharing wine and laughter. Wonderful atmosphere. We will return!

Shannon was the greatest waitress, extremely attentive and kind. All the staff were stupendous they were on top of filling drinks, cleaning the table and making sure your having a wonderful dinner. Beside service, the food is absolutely phenomenal I would come back to Texas just to eat here again!!! …

Was a meh experience. Porterhouse was stringy as all get out. I'm not a steak snob but you pay 80 bucks for a steak, that better be perfect. My table mates got the bone in filet and said that was excellent. The "signature" potato side dish …
