Editorial Review for Hibiscus – by Amanda Howe
The Scene
A dimly lit interior with a roaring fire blazing in the reception room invites diners to a cozy evening. Behind the small bar, attractive waitstaff flash friendly smiles while well-heeled patrons, who all seem to know each other, mingle easily. A long, high-ceilinged room with earth-toned walls capped by wooden beams hums with lively conversation beyond the bar.
The Food
Chef Nick Badovinus of Fireside Pies fame has achieved another culinary triumph by focusing on the ingredients and limiting the menu to one page of inventive dishes. Start out with the barbecued quail, drizzled in tangy brown sauce and served warm over a bed of slaw nestled in a golden fried onion ring. Entrees include the spit-fired cut spare ribs with green apple-hoisin sauce; the meat so tender, it melts off the bone. Pair with side dishes such as blue cheese polenta or deep-dish macaroni casserole.

My biggest pet peeve is service. Hibiscus had awesome service right from the moment we walked thru the door up until the moment we got into our car. Oh and I suppose I should mention that the food was equally good. Definitely a place I will be coming back to.
Pros: Service, Food
Cons: none

This is an outstanding place, it is well decorated and chic.The food was SO delicious we had the crab dip, rock shrimp, and crusted green beans as appitizers as we had a group of 20, the crab dip and green beans are a must I couldnt get enough of it!!! . The waiters was so attentive and we got everything we ordered right away! The entree i had was the turf & surf and it was the best turf & surf I have ever had, the shrimp were HUGE! The steak was cooked to perfection and it was flavored soo well, very juicy and a great cut of meat! It was served on top of garlic mashed potates with there house steak sauce which is very good also its got a little spice to it which I love, the meals were presented so creatively. A class forsure. We also had the skillet Mac & cheese, it was outstanding had a great flavor. We finished off dinner with the chocolate cake, OH MY GOODNES, it is the best. Its pretty rich in flavor and its drizzled with a rasberry sauce that is to die for! If you like dirty Martinis theres are AWESOME. The waiters are very knowledgeable with the wine lists and any liqour or drink you want they know! I have nothing at all bad to say about this place, even the Valet was quick and easy it was free as well. If you are in Dallas Hibiscus is a must but be prepared to spend a good chunk of money but it is all WELL worth it!! If you are looking for a romantic dinner this would be a great place as all the lights are dimmed and its very chill and romantic. My new fav of Dallas forsure!
Pros: Everything..food, service, valet, and atmosphere
Cons: Nothing that I recall
