R+D Kitchen Dallas Reviews
Save your time: Worst experience - Hostess was HORRIBLE!
Horrible experience. Entitled hostess on March 16, 2025 was the worst. (The irony of her job) if you are seeking a pleasant, friendly, open-to-all experience I would NOT recommend this place. I have to think it comes from management but she was a te
What happened?
We've been going to R&D for years. Always great. The chocolate fudge sundae was the best we've ever had. We bring guests and clients here for that. Last night was awful. The sundae had different ice cream, different pecans and, we think
Best sushi in Dallas-believe it or not
I know it's not typical for a restaurant that offers a very diverse menu. But R&D has a terrific showcase of sushi which is really tasty with melt-in-your-mouth tenderness. We split the Nigiri Combo Plate which featured two types of salmon plus
A new favorite
A new favorite. Great food; light and fun atmosphere, good service. Its just the right mix of great food; reasonable prices and casual enough for a quick lunch date wit but would also work for a nice business lunch meeting.
Fabulous sushi but ignoring barstaff
Arrived without reservation on Easter weekend Saturday and were promptly shown to wait for bar seating on โfirst come first serveโ basis. The barstaff were not at all helpful in keeping an eye for seats becoming available even though they should
Really good as with every R+D / Honor Bar/ Hillstone
Really good as with every R+D / Honor Bar/ Hillstone restaurant. Service was good and the Carnitas sandwich was a highlight.
Nice ambiance, decent service, and good food! The service
Nice ambiance, decent service, and good food! The service kind of toned down as it got busier but our food came out quick. The sushi was surprisingly good and did not have a fishy or old taste at all. The rotisserie chicken was juicy and flavorful (
The food, service and atmosphere here are exemplary.
The menu isn't extensive but there are plenty of choices and variety. The cheese burger & chicken sandwich are fantastic. The fries are ok and way overpriced for the very small portion. Nice selection of wine.
Good, not great
R&D kitchen is good, but not great. Easier to get in than Hillstone across the parking lot, which is a good point. As with all the restaurants in the Hillstone group menu is limited and they are rigid. Tried to substitute their Fashion Square
Loved this salad.
Mediterranean Tuna Salad. Also the Cheeseburger was great. Chicken meatballs were nice as appetizer.
Finally got a chance to try this place out for a weekend
Finally got a chance to try this place out for a weekend lunch! Fun fact about this restaurant: they started as a Research and Development for their sister restaurant next door but people ended up loving it that here they are! We got the Asian chick
I went for my birthday and I'm so embarrassed that I made
I went for my birthday and I'm so embarrassed that I made my friends suffer through that experience. The manager was just awful, extremely rude and douchey. Waitresses were good, but service was slow, food was mediocre. Will not be back.
No, I definitely wouldn't recommend this restaurant.
The atmosphere is mediocre. The service & staff wasn't attentive to me and my business partner. The food wasn't hot or flavorful.
We love R&D.
It is one of the few places where you can get a great steak or seafood, along with hand-rolled sushi. The food never disappoints. The waitstaff are always very friendly and accommodating. They have a nice craft cocktail list, along with many wines b

everytime my family and i visit dallas we have to grab a meal at r+d kitchen. every item on the menu is divine and i always have a hard time deciding between all the tempting options. we made a reservation at 7 and were seated on time. our server was
Loved the ambience! The drinks were fantastic.
One of the best dirty martinis I've had in a long time. Food was exceptional. Celebrated a friend's bday here. I wish they did something special to recognize bdays but otherwise it was a beautiful evening.
One of my favorite dinner places to go! Outside of R+D,
One of my favorite dinner places to go! Outside of R+D, there is a koi pond. When I go I ALWAYS get the pressed sushi. The best!!! Could eat it everyday! The service could be way better and you barely can get a reservation there. I still recommend to
One of my favorite places to go in Dallas.
Great staff and food/beverage. Hope to return soon.
Fantastic service and food,
Fantastic place and experience. We sat in a booth on the level above the bar. Our server Lily could not have been nicer. Our food-coconut shrimp sushi, salmon entree and Asian chicken noodle salad were all delicious. We never waited for service but w
HORRIBLE
Vegetarian options are awful. That cold, flavorless avocado roll was BAD. The service was awful. The woman was obviously new. She asked us if we were ready to order 4 times in 10 minutes when we were clearly enjoying our drinks and talking. She then
Food is great. Policies need to change!
The policies that they enforce do not make sense whatsoever. Per policy they only allow 2 people to sit at a table that sits 4 people. Then if you are sitting down you can't wear a hat yet the person in front of you at the bar that is 4ft away from y
Connect with users posting reservations for R+D Kitchen Dallas
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with R+D Kitchen Dallas. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to R+D Kitchen Dallas at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the R+D Kitchen Dallas page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* MaternalRecord73, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* MaternalRecord73 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to MaternalRecord73 for any questions Peter may have as MaternalRecord73 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* MaternalRecord73 now uses their connections at R+D Kitchen Dallas to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If MaternalRecord73 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, MaternalRecord73 receives the $200 reward which is credited to MaternalRecord73's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at R+D Kitchen Dallas!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
