Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Lakewood / White Rock Lake

The experience was great! The food and service were outstanding! The desserts, oh my gosh, were incredible. Just go there and enjoy. After an amazing dinner or lunch, you can shop downstairs in the amazing Italian store.

Brought our family for Thanksgiving brunch and it was a great experience. The chef was out detailing how he prepared the amazing food at the buffet. He did some very special preparations that I’d never seen before. The staff was so kind and helpful too. Thank you for a great holiday Dolce Riviera, we will definitely come again!

Mot Hai Ba has been my favorite restaurant in Dallas for the last 10 years. Its unique vibe makes every meal different. I take anyone visiting me from out of town here. Would recommend: Grilled Octopus, Grilled Duck Hearts, Hamachi Crudo, Potato Crusted Halibut, and Blackened Sea Bass

Treated my wife to a day date. From the moment we walked in, the hostess at the host stand was welcoming and our server Jordan was outstanding with his recommendations. I had the Chicken Parm with the vodka sauce and my wife had the blackened pork chops. We both were surprised at the large portions. The ambience was very inviting. Our only negative review would be the dessert. We wanted the chocolate cake fondue to be warmer and we thought it was too rich. We couldn’t finish it. It was delicious but way too rich for us. Overall, great value, tasty menu and great service. We can’t wait to go back.

Absolutely delighted with my experience at Bistro 31! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Michael and the entire team went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. The service was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive, and they were knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations. The food was nothing short of extraordinary. Each dish was crafted with care, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The flavors were so well-balanced, it was evident that the kitchen prides itself on quality ingredients and expert preparation. I also appreciated the cozy yet elegant ambiance of the restaurant—perfect for a night out with friends or a romantic dinner. Michael and his team clearly know how to create a memorable dining experience. I can't wait to return and enjoy another exceptional meal! Highly recommend Bistro 31 for anyone seeking top-notch food and service!
