  This is probably the best steakhouse experience in Dallas. I do not say that lightly at all, I have a lot of places I love to go for a steak here but this one out does them all. Food quality is unreal, service is unmatched, ambiance is just right (not too big not too small of a space) and their wine list is impeccable. If you’re on the fence, make the reservation.

  My date and I both got horrible food poisoning from our meal. We were both up all night taking turns expelling our $1,200 meal in the worst ways possible. I wouldn’t have expected to get food poisoning, especially with the food that we ordered. Nothing in our order was raw, no oysters, no tartare, just straightforward food you’d expect from a steakhouse. Our waiter was pretty good. He was attentive and friendly, making our anniversary feel special. We dropped by for cocktails and a dessert the night before our reservations and our waiter that evening wasn’t exactly rude, but it was close. On top of that, he added two drinks that we didn’t order to our tab, which we were able to resolve with a phone call later that night. The food tasted delicious (the first time) and was well-presented, but quite a bit more expensive than what you’d expect for the quality, even at a Michelin acknowledged restaurant. I’m incredibly disappointed with Stilwell’s and I won’t be going back, not to mention actively discouraging my friends and family from going there. We chose the restaurant for our anniversary dinner, and it’s a shame that it was ruined so horribly.

  I was checking my lunch calories when an app found this spot. It scans my plate to track calories. The bread roll was good and fit my low limit, with a standard size. The dining room is quiet and clean.

  Visited for Restaurant Week and will be returning. Tomas was the best. Restaurant had a very nice moody vibe that was perfect for our date night. Every dish we had during our visit was delicious and made with intention. Some of the highlights were the lobster bisque and the pork chop. Honestly better than we even expected and plated perfectly. Tomas was very courteous and knowledgeable of everything that touched our table. Definitely will be coming back multiple times.

  Decided to try this place for the first time because of restaurant week. Initially I felt like we were made to feel as a second class citizens because I selected restaurant week on the OpenTable reservation. We arrived about 5 minutes before our reservation time and were told to go to the bar area to have a seat, which seems to be where they were telling everyone to do. A hostess took us there but there were no seats at the bar, but there were tables in the bar area so we go back up and end up speaking with a manger asking if we were able to sit at any of the tables since there were no seats and didn’t want to stand awkwardly in the middle of the room or behind bar patrons in chairs like were at some college bar. He told us we could either stand in the bar area or go back to the first floor of the hotel to sit at the bar there, so we went back to Stillwell’s bar area and just stood there for about 10 more minutes until a hostess called our name and then proceeded to sit us at one of the tables at the bar directly behind us. At this point, I asked why we had to wait since this table and several more of the tables in the bar were cleaned off and available since the moment we walked in. She immediately got the manager, same guy we talked to when we complained about the bar area, who continuously gave us excuses about why the table wasn’t ready and why the original waiter only left one full restaurant menu at the table because we selected restaurant week on our reservation. Another example of us feeling like we were being treated less than others because we selected the restaurant week menu on Open Table. After all the excuses and other bs he had to offer, we had our waitress Val come. Honeslty, this was the only reason we didn’t leave the restaurant. She was extremely nice and went over restaurant week menu items as well as top items on the regular menu with us, where we decided to order a mixture of both menus. The remainder of the service and the remainder of the food was great, except one thing. We ordered the following RW: Beef dumplings Cesar salad 6oz filet w/broccolini and potato puree Bone-in pork chop w/ crispy potato salad Chocolate cake Cheesecake Regular Menu: Deviled Eggs Lobster Bisque Only complaint I had was the crispy potato salad. It was so burned tasting that I couldn’t eat it. Other than that, the food and service was excellent. The manager came by again towards the end of service but didn’t feel like telling him the crispy potato salad was bad because he just had an extremely weird vibe at our table and felt like he would’ve just been defensive about my complaint. Even though the service and food were good, I probably wouldn’t return because of the very strange experience at the beginning and with the manager. My opinion is that the whole point of restaurant week is to experience a tasting of restaurants you’ve never been to, as well as, support the North Texas Food Bank, not feel like you’re less than at a nice restaurant for choosing this menu that the restaurant chose to participate in.
