Best Dog Friendly Restaurants in East Dallas

My wife and I always go out for a Special Christmas Dinner every years and we always make it a new place to us and try to make it unique. This year I asked a good friend of mine Elizabeth Disch what place she would recommend and she immediately said Toulouse - it was her favorite restaurant in Dallas. That was enough said for me so I made reservations and my first impression was made at the bar while we were waiting for our table when the young bartender made for me the PERFECT Old Fashioned, not many bartenders today know how to make those !!! Then we were seated and Edwardo took perfect care of use from the mussel appetizers to my wife's trout, to my lobster. Trust me we will return many more times. Interesting, I was waiting outside for my wife when we left and an older gentleman walked up to me and we started talking, he said he was from that area originally - he said he had seen it change a lot through the years, he said Toulouse was originally an Ice Cream Shop that he use to go to , he would get an ice cream cone several times a week. He said the area had changed a lot, he said some good, some bad, but he was glad that Toulouse was there, he said he eats there often and is glad they are keep the original building as it was.

I was celebrating my son’s birthday-who is 52 years old. It was a wonderful celebration between a mother and her son. We had a very special time remembering his life and successes . Our server was very attentive and courteous and just really made our experience wonderful. The food was great and we definitely will come again. Thank you!

The crispy chicken and biscuit brunch entree was the best brunch item i have had in ages. Can't wait to go back.

A 10 out if 10!! we were looking for a place to have a family gathering before we went to the Dallas Arboretum. All the way from the manager down to our server they 100% attended to our needs, had reserved a great spot for us to enjoy our family time and the food was delicious. 

We had a large group for a birthday celebration, including small kids, and the server was great despite how hectic it had to be for her. The food was excellent and the setting was perfect as the space allowed the kids to be energetic without distracting/bothering other diners. The fact that we had great weather to be outside also helped greatly.
