I just had a truely remarkable experience at this restaurant in the private dining room and had planned to simply report my pleasure and contentment for a job well done. Then I saw the review from the unhappy person (""no customer service"") who had a dinner in the same room but apparently had a much different experience than I did. \r

I was told when I reserved the room that it was normally seated publicly and the charge of the room was comparable to what they would recieve in revenues were it not private. They told me it was the same price for 10 or 36 and to think of it as a room charge. As it turned out, we had 24, not 36 but I fully understood the concept and would never have asked for food or drinks ""to go"". How inappropriate!\r

Anyway, the whole point before I saw the critical review was to say that the private dining room here is the most unique setting in town. Most of my guests had no idea that the wall opened up and ""voila!"" there was a demonstration chef's kitchen. We had our very own chefs for the evening. The efficient, friendly wait staff was marvelous and every bite was absolute perfection, from the amuse bouche to the after dinner chocolates. Chef Pyles came to the room to check on us personally and was very charming. \r

I've never had such a good experience anywhere in Dallas. It's hard to believe I was even dining at the same place this reviewer described.
Pros: Unique and beautiful private dining room
Cons: Was hard to get in on Valentine's
