Only reason it's not a 5 star is because after having a 8oclock reservation and being seated at 8:45. But Jamie flipped our experience around completely with his amazing attitude. Than the food came out and it was amazing! Having different specials Dailey is always something to look forward too! Tables very close together about 18 inches from table to table. I could hear both table conversations next to me when we were trying to celebrate an anniversary

Saturday brunch was excellent...the food was amazing. My husband had the quiche which he raved about. I had the vegetarian omelette on a recommendation of our waiter and it was excellent. This restaurant was a great introduction to French food.

Still our favorite in Dallas. Brunch and Dinner. The greatest staff. Steak and Eggs's always perfect. Love fried oysters and Tuna Tartare, And the croissants, what can I say. Great cocktails and wine.

This neighborhood bistro on Knox Henderson offers solid French-inspired cuisine in a prime location right by the Katy Trail. Surprisingly, it was quiet for a Saturday brunch, so you might not need a reservation. Our meal was consistently good, with the Mussels Marinière being a standout dish. The service was commendable, and the interior is charming, offering plenty of seating options. The patio is a highlight, with both covered and open areas perfect for enjoying the summer weather. Opt for a seat on the uncovered patio for a delightful view of the lively foot traffic on the Katy Trail.

This place is truly like stepping into a French bistro. The open air dining style, accompanied by French music, and the most fabulous smells will have you booking a trip to Paris asap. Despite being a more "casual" dining spot, the waitstaff are some of the best I've ever encountered. They will go above and beyond to make sure everything is right for you. The experience I had here was far better than many I've had at restaurants 2 or 3 times the price. Even with all of that praise, the food at Toulouse is truly the show stopper. All the flavors are so rich and comforting, you'll feel like Julia Child is cooking for you. I was also pleasantly surprised that the portions were large - this is not a restaurant you'll leave feeling hungry or wishing you'd ate beforehand. By all means, come to Toulouse hungry and ready to swap bites with your table.

I met a girlfriend here for brunch on a Saturday and the restaurant was so busy! I made a reservation on line and I'm so glad that I did. I ordered a Bloody Mary to sip on while I waited for my friend to arrive. It was good and made well. For entrees, I ordered the quiche of the day and she ordered the beet salad. We both enjoyed our meals and the warm bread and butter that came before that as well. Our service was decent but you could tell that all of the servers were busting it and trying to flip tables quickly. It is pretty pricey for brunch but we enjoyed our time here.

I'm OBSESSED with this place for lunch and brunch! I've been many times over the past few years and they never seem to disappoint! It's a quiet place right off of the Katy trail with good food and great service! Always anticipating the next visit

If you like a restaurant with really good food, great desserts and excellent service then this might be your kind of place. There are some downsides: 1. There is no convenient valet parking but I am sure that all the restaurants on Knox have the same issue. 2. This place is loud and compact. The tables are close together. I could hear the person next to me but not the person across the table. However, it was my birthday and they brought me a beautiful candle and chocolate mousse. I would go back because the prices are reasonable and the service and food met my expectations.

Came here for brunch today, and was absolutely top notch. Enjoyed the French food- we had escargots as an appetizer, and they were very yummy and buttery. Pro tip: hold on to the plate and use the escargot sauce as a dip for the warm bread. So good! I had a Chanel No. 6 and my friend had the espresso martini, both great. The Chanel No. 6 is like a hyped up mimosa cocktail, champagne with vodka, chambord, and juice added in. I reco the eggs benedict with short rib, loved it. Quiche comes highly recommended by the staff also, but I found it quite heavy & large. Great if you're super hungry! I ordered the asparagus as a side, it came as four stalks... but was dressed very well, and also filling. The ambiance is classy (French), but came in jeans and did not feel underdressed. Service was friendly and prompt, no complaints. Overall a stellar brunch at Toulouse!

I stopped by Toulouse as a suggestion from Sarah, from Aesop which is down the street from Toulouse. I didn't go too far inside the restaurant because I was extremely hungry and just wanted to sit and eat. So, I sat at a table on their covered patio just inside the door. I already knew what I wanted so my server, Joe, took my order pretty quickly. I ordered a steak with fries and asparagus. The steak was SO tender that I didn't even touch my steak knife (also because I didn't see it :) ). The asparagus was MOST flavorful and the fries were enjoyable as well. The service was quick and attentive (thank you, Joe). The price was a little more than I wanted to pay but the food was well worth it.
