    A very relaxing and welcoming atmosphere in the first floor dining room. We ate here before going to a play. The food was great, we loved the appetizers. The potstickers were exceptional as was the crab cake. We also enjoyed the coffee. May be the best we have had at restaurant in Dallas. The service was attentive but not rushed. We visited the rooftop where it was louder and bit more festive. It was the best of both worlds! Quiet and relaxing for a date downstairs and great upstairs for drinks with friends. The menu is served in both places with a Happy Hour menu upstairs. We will be back.

    A Christmas tradition for me and my family! Very e joyable experience. Typically I get the famous pork chop however the Prime Rib caught my eye. The prime rib was well cooked (med rare). I will say I was expecting some Smoked flavor however the prime rib had an extreme smoked taste which was overpowering. I ate around most of the char, but in my opinion and those of a couple of us, you should cut back on the smoke preparation for the prime rib. We will definitely return and I will definitely return to the pork chop selection! Thank you for a wonderful Christmas Eve meal/tradition. Michael Oney

    This was the best steak dinner I have ever had. And that’s saying something when I think about all of the places I have been. We ordered three different steaks each cooked at three different temperatures. They all came out together, at the perfect temperature. This is NOT easy to do! The taste was incredible- juicy, perfect color with just a hint of woody flavor. Not too salty. Our server Brandi was amazing, attentive but not over bearing. We engaged in polite conversation and her sides and dessert recommendations were spot on. I would highly recommend Town Hearth if ever you’re in Dallas! You won’t be disappointed!
