The bar for social rejects 7/16/2008

I went to this bar thinking I would have a great time and mingle with classy people, boy was I wrong. This bar is not an example of how the Uptown social scene is. Its like a bunch of social rejects all packed in one spot, just awful. There are plenty of nice bars in Uptown that have people with class, however this bar isn't it and it shoudn't even carry the Uptown name because there isn't anything UPTOWN about it. Also the cheese fries are OK nothing that would make me want to come back for. Pros: Nothing you couldn't get anywhere else Cons: The bar itself more

Fantastic Patio and burgers! 7/2/2008

I passed on jakes burgers the other day and drove to Uptown Bar & grill to give them a try. I loved loved the hamburger! BIG payyt, great buns and the gal below was right, the cheese fries are scary! They have a great patio that is a people watching place and a fantastic waitress was on staff that day. I have not experienced Kareoke, but can tell you that the hamburgers, service and patio are great! Pros: service, burgers and patio Cons: parking, but there is some in back more

Terrible Service and Karaoke is awful 4/11/2008

Uptown has really bad service, an unfriendly staff, and the absolute worst karaoke in town. I've never seen a bar so poorly run and in such need of a drastic fix. The atmosphere, prices, etc are all fine. The staff, however, is another matter. Drinks are rarely delivered on time and often done so with air of superiority. Furthermore, the Karaoke boss often sings several songs. If I wanted to listen to her sing, I would buy her nonexistent album. People come to a bar with karaoke to either, karaoke themselves or listen to drunk patrons do so. Pros: decent atmosphere, friendly patrons Cons: very unfriendly staff, karaoke boss sings 10 songs a night more

The casual side of Uptown 9/5/2007

Great food and a very casual, lively atmosphere. Definitely the best bar in Uptown to meet with your friends and have a good time. If your eating, get the cheddar fries and the burgers - some of the best in Dallas if you ask me. Freindly staff. Gets crowded on the weekends. Pros: Good food/drink - nicely casual Cons: Karaoke night is loud more

Happy hour at UPTOWN BAR MAKES me HAPPY! 8/29/2007

I like a cocktail after work and this uptown neighborhood bar is perfect! I can sit with my girlfriends and for $3.75 get a drink I can afford in a not so bar like atmosphere. It reminds me of a Dallas Cheers. The Wait staff is really friendly and there are many of them so we got great service with a smile. Like I said, Happy hour at the Uptown Bar and Grill makes ME happy! Come on by and say hi. I'll be there with my girl friends. Pros: great happy hour and good for groups of friends Cons: Gets busy so grab a table early, but the staff is fast so no worries. more

Try the cheddar fries!! 8/29/2007

This is the perfect place to sit back and relax. It's a true ""come as you are"" bar. The friendly service and cold beer is great, but it's the food that keeps us coming back. The burgers are super, but the cheddar fries are a must-have! The karaoke on Saturday nights gets a bit crowded, but, it's still fun to watch. This place has been our favorite for years and will surely continue to be! Pros: Food Cons: Can get crowded more

The best 1/2 lb burger in Dallas! Come see why D Mag said so 8/29/2007

Are you kidding me???? Yummmyyyyy! I got a ? pound burger for under six bucks and it was GREAT! The service was great and not a smoker in sight. I love this place. You can hang out on the patio if you are a smoker, but for us cool burger lovers in or out it?s the ?Mac Daddy ? Burger joint! Pros: Amazing burgersa, Amazing value Cons: You can pass it on mckinney fast, so keep a look out more

Probably the place to go to drink...not to eat. 2/14/2007

Smoky environment. We thought it would have at least a smoke free area. We ordered a veggie burger and the turkey burger. Both were over cooked and dry. Fries were average but nicely salted. Service was polite. Not the place to go for food maybe only if you were drinking would be our guess. Pros: Nice wait staff Cons: parking in rear only, food over cooked more
