The atmosphere was absolutely remarkable!
I had such a lovely anniversary dinner with my husband. It was truly a pleasure to treat him to such a flavorful meal at Kitchen + Kocktails by Kevin Kelley in downtown Dallas.
Honestly, I wouldn’t mind making this our official anniversary spot. Everything was delicious! The fried green tomatoes could have been a little tender, but overall the food was wonderful. Every bite was full of flavor just absolutely savory. Amazingly #Deliciousness
Thank you for the great service as well. A big shout out to our handsome waiter, David! Y’all check out that smile and check out my king too. Handsome fellows! My love and I truly enjoyed ourselves. ❤️

My sister and I chose Kitchen + Kocktails for a birthday lunch, and it delivered on every level. Ken was an amazing host—welcoming, attentive, and genuinely made the experience feel special from the moment we arrived.
The drinks were fantastic, perfectly balanced and fun. We ordered the seafood platter, and wow—more than enough for a second meal. Fresh, generous, and absolutely worth it.
Let’s talk comfort food:
The waffles melt in your mouth like butter.
The grits were hands-down the best we’ve had in a long time—rich, flavorful, and done right.
And the atmosphere? Loved it. The vibe, the music, the energy—it’s the kind of place where good food meets a great time.
This is officially one of our go-to spots for good food and a fun vibe. Can’t wait to come back.

I had a true 5-star experience at Kitchen + Kocktails by Kevin Kelley in Dallas!
From the moment I walked in, Latifah and Dee Dee set the tone with their professionalism and warm hospitality. I was seated promptly, and Latifah’s menu recommendations were spot-on. I had the Delicious Oxtails and Grits!
Manager Gabby personally introduced herself and checked in to ensure everything—from the mood to the service—was perfect. That level of care really stood out.
Wilson made sure I was comfortable throughout, offering help before I even had to ask—top-tier service.
And Devin the bartender? Absolutely exceptional. The drinks were some of the best I’ve ever had, crafted with style and class.
This team truly delivers excellence all around. I’ll definitely be back! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Everything was delicious!! First time here and it was such a vibe!! From the music to the food and the customer service. The service was phenomenal (huge shoutout to our waitress Shardae who was AHMAZING). The tomatoes weren’t tender /ripe enough) but everything was delicious! They even muddled my luxardo cherry upon request in the old fashioned. 10 out of 10. If you’re thinking about going, just go.

Best server in the world. Shoutout to Benny. He gave a us a lot of good recommendations off the menu. We came all the way from Jacksonville Florida. I must stay the food, the vibe, and customer service was A1. The manager Alexis came by our table she was very sweet and professional. I would highly recommend this restaurant you will not be disappointed.

Checked out Kitchen + Kocktails on a Friday afternoon with a friend, this place did not disappoint! We ordered a few small bites to share: the shrimp deviled eggs, catfish bites, and a Caesar salad. The flavors were on point, everything came out hot, fresh, and perfectly seasoned, and even the salad, while not homemade, was still totally enjoyable.
And the cocktails? Good! And blended well. Beautifully crafted, balanced, and strong enough to let you know they don’t play around.
What really made the visit stand out was the staff. From the cooks to the servers, greeters, and even management, everyone we interacted with was welcoming, professional, and genuinely seemed happy to be there. That level of hospitality is rare these days and truly elevated the whole experience. Shout out to our super attentive server Brianna!!
If you’re looking for a fun vibe, great food, and top-tier service in Dallas, Kitchen + Kocktails should be on your list! Will definitely be back.
Paid for parking directly across the street for $20. No valet here.

The food was good and came out hot, even though we waited a bit—which is understandable since they’re always busy. The Toasted Marshmallow Espresso was AMAZING—hands down the best espresso martini I’ve ever had, and honestly worth coming back for on its own. My friend ordered the fried chicken with mac and cheese and couldn’t stop talking about it for the rest of the day. I don’t have any major complaints; I just felt the food was good, not great, for the price. That said, you’re really paying for the atmosphere and overall experience, which I can appreciate.

I live in Colombia, South America. I cannot find any lamb chops there. After visiting Dallas, Texas for a week, I stumbled on this place literally 5min walk from my hotel. I visit this place 2 days in a row, basically has the same meal each time. Very recommended.

My server Season was amazing! So kind, patient with all out questions as tourists. She had a delightful bubbly personality that med me feel right at home. She even accommodated my 6yr old with a non alcoholic cotton candy beverage. 10 stars for her! The manager Robert was also very kind and attentive!! I will definitely be back when im in dallas again!
