“ Service was amazing. The manager checked on us twice. Fresh pasta and thin and crispy pizza. Quality of food was good. Wine selection was really good. Olive cake was a bit dry. ”
“ I had the pleasure of dining at Dea on Friday, June 16 for my dad’s birthday/Father’s Day. Everything was great, from the hospitality to the food and ambiance. We had several different items off of the menu, and each item was spectacular. We really loved the gougeres, burrata salad, pasta, halibut, and steaks. I also tried the drink special that our server, Ralph, came up with, and it was amazing! Dea has one of the best desserts in all of Dallas with the Carmelia Chocolate Tart. Can’t wait to go back! ”
“ Finally a great dinner experience. An unpretentious cozy neighborhood gem. So glad we took a chance on this Franco-Italian "bistro." A well balanced, well priced, wine list with a great selection from new and old world, even Greece. Some different, interesting cocktails too. We started with a Cremant. We even got a side car of Creme de Cassis to make our own Kir Royal. Menu was extensive with plenty of interesting "Sharables." Nice salads and pizzas. We started with 3 tasty dips (including a Caponata that even my mother-in-law would love) with bread service, tender Prosciutto Bruschetta, Crispy Fritto Misto with beautiful fried marinated Artichokes and well Fried Green Tomatoes with succulent Pimento Cheese dip and Bacon jam. Menu includes some good Pastas and lovely "Big plates." Our Primo were a textbook, Cacio E Pepe which as you know is not easy to master (We opted for the added Truffles which unfortunately were sprinkles and not shaved with no truffle taste or aroma) and a Bolognese Pappardelle that rivalled my wife's and that is impressive! We also tried the melt in your mouth Short Rib Bourguignon with tender, sweet, baby carrots and an amazing red wine reduction that was just right. Steak Fries was what it should be albeit not very interesting. Would be nice to have a Cafe de Paris butter sauce option as well as the 2 offered. Of course a beautiful, well priced, CADE accompanied these meats . We skipped dessert after all this food but we did take a piece of the Olive Oil cake home but it was dry. Overall a GREAT dinner made perfect by Annie's impeccable service. Very courteous and hospitable. Never faltered with the wines or silverware and most importantly delivered all dishes PIPING hot as requested The manager/owner is constantly working the floor. She checked on our table twice. We will be back to try the other dishes on the menu. THANK YOU ”
“ Had the best time here ! They hosted a mahjong night for my women’s group upstairs. The staff were all super friendly, the drinks and food were pretty tasty and overall the place was really nice and conveniently located. They have free valet (tip encouraged). But overall we had so much fun! I can’t wait to go back and enjoy dinner with friends ! ”
“ While searching for a breakfast or brunch spot, we stumbled upon a charming eatery advertised by a sandwich board by the road, which prompted us to give it a shot. Despite being underdressed for its surprisingly upscale ambiance, the staff treated us wonderfully, making us feel welcome. The service was excellent throughout. I enjoyed a delicious Steak and Eggs, while my girlfriend savored a delightful chicken dish, and we topped off our meal with a scrumptious dessert. Highly recommend for a top-notch dining experience! ”
“ I had my birthday dinner here and everything was exceptional from vibe, food, drink and service! Raulph was our waiter and he took care of us so well, and gave us good recommendations on food and drinks. We would come back for brunch next time since the brunch menu also looks really good! ”
“ Dea was a five-star, fabulous experience from walking-in to walking-out. We were politely greeted upon walk-in, and proceeded to the open bar until the remainder of our party arrived. The bartenders were immediately attentive and made us a tasty round of cocktails. Soon thereafter, we were accompanied to our table and had a wonderful dining experience trying several dishes. I failed to capture all served plates and entrees, but each and every dish was spectacular and had palatable taste. I highly recommend and urge you to try a selection in every category offered because we did so, and nothing disappointed any of us! We will be back to enjoy again and again! ”
“ Food was awesome, and the drinks were great. Downstairs was lively but the second floor was a but more tame for conversation. I really enjoyed the Flatbread pizza. I'm not a fan of valet parking but that's what you deal with in the downtown area. ”
