RBC — Restaurant in Dallas

Grading criteria Service 5/5 The bartender that served me was the owner. She was very personable and it made the experience enjoyable.

Venue 3/5 the venue itself is large and wide, I had no difficulty getting around. Most places that are full of people tend to have poor ventilation’s and that’s understandable, but it doesn’t mean anyone should settle.

Price 1/5 This is a bit of a surprise. But generally my attitude is “when going to any bar or club, you’re taking a mini-vacation.” That means that regular things you’d make or eat at home will be expensive. That being said, for the prices I’m paying, I’d like to see something reflect that price. So maybe over-pour? The drinks were very watered down. Serve me in a glass cup instead of a cheap plastic cup? For the prices I’m paying, i should have taken those cups home with me 😅

Other noticeable things Security is something that I understand. They aren’t your friends, they WILL be curt. Still, at the entrance the people working the door seem to be bothered by people approaching them. I’d say, be prepared to be patted down and make little conversation as they are doing their jobs and may be burned out. 4/5. Sound 5/5 there’s good loud and then there is bad loud, they are good loud. Props to whoever set up the sound. That being said, I hate loud noise. So I bring...

Im gonna be brutally honest here the venue only cares about money nothing else at all. They had horrible communication about when the artist are supposed to arrive and when doors are open. They ended up opening the doors an almost 2 hours after they were supposed to be open. They then proceeded to pull out a “minor surcharge” out of nowhere and we needed to pay this in order to get in even though we had already purchased our tickets with no warning of this prior. Plus people taking this “charge”are so unorganized and unprofessional like as if they just came up with this randomly. They legit had no way of me paying them unless i gave them my card information and even when i tried to find a different form of payment but they denied due them not having any form of credible payment systems . What is this there is no need to be rude either. Anyway i’m not done yet , water is overpriced obviously but PLEASE bring cash because they will charge you twice or tip themselves without consent and will proceed to lie. This is not abnormal others have...

In short, it’s a “no” for me. I don’t think the space if awful, but I do think the last event flyer was a little misleading. I went to the “Legends: For the Love of R&B II” party/event. We paid $15 for what looked like a middle school dance. From the flyer, my friends and I thought it was going to be live music with a band or something of the sort WITH seating, but no, it was just a couple of DJs playing 90s/early 2000s R&B in a club setting 🤦🏾‍♀️. I love R&B, however, having to stand for hours was not fun. Plus, it was hot!

The venue is okay. It has like 3 seating sections and a decent sized dance floor. I’m not a club person anymore so it was a turn-off. It’s connected to the side of Twisted Root Burger Co. (in Deep Ellum).

Additional, the bar service was awful. They had 3 bartenders for too many people. I was in like for like 30min and NEVER got my drink. And the drinks were a little pricey for the event.

Overall, I wouldn’t go back or attend another one of...
