Best Cozy Restaurants in Oak Cliff

Our brunch on 12/29/24 at the Mansion was absolutely wonderful. Everything was perfect. Jimmy, our primary server, took great care of us and was charming and kind as well. Without being asked, he told our 1 vegetarian about a biscuit with bacon in it that was brought to the table for everybody. Sang served us also and was just great. You won’t get service like this at too many places in Dallas! All 6 of us LOVED what we ordered. I had the salmon tart & Eggs Benedict, both excellent. Other standouts were the crabcake, the mushroom soup, the chicken schnitzel and a perfect omelette. But we loved everything that came to the table; lots of different things! We sat on the veranda, which is one of the prettiest dining rooms in town. From start to finish, this was a great experience.

Great vibe. Food was outstanding as always. James did a great job with recommendations and service.

Service is impeccable! We've been to the restaurant several times and love it. This time we found the main dishes - the chicken and the pork - not as well prepared as the fish we've had before. But the appetizers - surf and turf and brisket, the refried lentils and okra with shishitos, ALL of the handmade masas, the Mexican chocolate ganache, and the Jamaica margaritas were all extraordinary! We look forward to our next venture in.

Such a fun experience with my new grand baby and family. Food and service was perfect. I had not been there for dinner in a long time and have forgotten how delicious the food is there. Short ribs and salmon were amazing. My family members had the chicken and said it was the best they had ever had. Thanks mercat for the perfect ending to our Christmas holiday.

We celebrated my husband's birthday at Swank. I really loved this restaurant; it's a quaint restaurant housed in a restored home. The food (the whipped ricotta for an appetizer and lamb chops, and sea bass as entrees) was great, the service was excellent. I will definitely return when in the area.
