    Made reservations but still had to wait 15-20 mins past my scheduled time to be seated. Place was very loud and chaotic. Hostess wasn’t very welcoming. Food was delicious but the ambiance there was not what you expect for fine dining.
    MonarchResponded 3 days ago
    Thank you for your visit and feedback, Diana. We apologize for any delay you experienced in getting seated and will look into what happened to make sure it is not an issue again. We're glad you enjoyed our food, and hopefully, we can have another opportunity to serve you again someday to seat you in a more subdued section so you can have an excellent experience in every way. Please let us know. The Monarch Dallas team

    I enjoyed myself there. However I wasn’t aware of the hidden fees. I brought a cake & had to pay $6 per person just to cut my own cake. Also for parking it states that there is a $10 fee but when you get your vehicle it’s much more, they do not honor what the website states in regard to valet parking etc.
    MonarchResponded on January 25, 2025
    Jennifer, we apologize if you weren't made aware of our outside cake policy. We'll make sure that's made clear for all guests who choose to bring cakes in. The Thompson Hotel offers valet service through Towne Park for $10, and if you were charged differently, please contact us. We're glad you enjoyed your visit, and we look forward to hearing from you so we can make sure you have an excellent dining experience in every way. Thank you, The Monarch Dallas team
