Reviews for Izkina Restaurant & Lounge in Dallas, TX
Food was good but the drinks and food took FOREVER to come out! Our waiter had a lil sassy nasty attitude. There?s not much... space to move around or walk. The booth we were sitting at had different people rubbing against the table next to our foodbecause it?s so tight and small inside. Even though the food was good, I wouldn?t waste my time going back ???? Read more
Food was great, ambiance was great, drinks was great. When you walk in you start wondering where is the entrance to the dining... area. They pushed open a hideaway door in the middle of theshelf, their it opened to the restaurant and bar. Very cool. We hadreservation. If you have reservations, they will only give 90 minutes to eat and then you are ushered out. We would have spentmore there with drinks, but our time was up. And they reminded me of it and asked for my card to pay the bill. 90 was a hardstop. Not good service. I want to add there potentially another 12 open tables when we\'re being pushed out. All the coolaspects was negated due to the service. Read more
We went for my husband?s birthday dinner last night and will not be back. The front door is not clearly labeled so we entered... through the exit, which means we missed out on the speak easy experience. Our waitress was pretty good, but everyone else weencountered was rude and/or unfriendly. We ordered dinner around 8:45 pm, and 3 meals came out around 9:45 and my dinner didn?tcome until 10. Employees kept coming by to rush us and letting us know we had to leave our table at 10 (when the restaurantturns into a club and the tables turn into sections). We knew this and were fine with that but didn?t even have our food yet andweren?t expecting to have to rush through dinner. When the people who reserved our table/section arrived, they told us to getup, rather than allowing us to move to another table to finish our food. We were still waiting to get our cards back afterpaying. The waitress apologized for the food taking so long but management never came by. It was crazy because maybe 2 othertables had ordered food so it didn?t make sense for the kitchen to be backed up. Was just an overall disappointing experience.Giving it 2 stars because when we finally got food, everyone enjoyed their meal. Read more
First time there for a birthday dinner and it was awesome. Food was amazing and service was great!! The DJ did a great job... playing old and new jams! Read more
My friend and I went here and had a great night. I ordered the oxtail tacos and honey ranch wings. She got lamb chops with... cabbage and mashed potatoes. The food was hot and fresh. We will definitely be back!! Drinks were also great! The food is kindof pricey but we had no problem paying it. It?s well worth it. Especially for the atmosphere. Read more
I went to Izkina on a Friday night for their R&B night. Although I would love to give it a higher rating because the atmosphere... was a true vibe, the service was inconsistent and disappointing.\nThe DJ was on point and the vibe was amazing. But trying toorder food was so difficult. It was the beginning of the night around 10pm and we asked the bartender how can we order food shesaid the servers on the floor will assist you. Fine, but guess what?where are the servers? So we saw a staff member and askedhim how we can order, he said he would grab a server for us. We watched him and he continued his conversation and never grabbeda server for us. So I went over to one of the bottle girls who I assumed was also a server and she said she would finish withone table then come right over. She also never came. Then we met a regular patron and he tried to flag down a server for us whotold him that now only people with sections can order food. Well bad business for him because the sections were empty for atleast another hour. A missed opportunity for money. I was highly disappointed because I heard great things about the food butdidn?t get to try it. I guess if you want to eat here you should come much earlier in the night. But they need to work onconsistency amongst their staff members for sure. Overall if you just want a nice vibe for music this is a nice place to come towith a cute speakeasy aesthetic. Read more
I wish didn?t eat before I came. My friends had the lamb & chicken wings. Was very good. Especially the greens! Our sever was... great! Read more
Great music, nice vibe. Decor was nice. Felt safe for the most part. I will say it takes a while to get a drink. The majority of... the crowd gets in really late (after 12:45am). Overall a cool nightclub. Read more
