Best French American Restaurants in Irving

Great vibe and ambiance coupled with fantastic food and service

Fantastic experience overall. Food was exquisite, thoughtful and well composed. Truly couldn’t have asked for a better meal. Drink selection didn’t feel as up to par as the food menu. Basic options. Bathroom is up an entire flight of winding stairs which is fine, but be cautious in heels. They were out of toilet paper, so that felt overlooked. Bar with live music ramped up toward the end of our dinner but wasn’t overly loud and soundly lively as we were exiting.

We made a reservation about a month in advance (the furtherest out they’ll allow you to make reservations) for Valentine’s Day, and it did not disappoint! We arrived approximately five minutes before our reservation time and they sat us immediately. Even though every table was filled for a busy night of service for the holiday, our waitstaff was responsive and helpful. The food itself was also amazing and well priced. While everyone can and should expect the steak to be good (it was cooked perfectly and was fantastically tender), the standout surprise was just how good their rustic artisan bread was! I could live off nothing but that and butter like a European peasant of old. I was also a bit nervous about the “secret sauce” as a particularly picky eater, but found myself loving even that. I ordered it on-the-side without issue, and found myself pouring it over my steak in no time. It was a great experience! Even the dessert was delicious. I got a sundae while my wife got the apple pie. She told me it was one of the best she ever had, and my sundae (after the mountain of whipped cream) kept including unexpected, but welcome, surprises. I believe they were beads of chocolate covered crisped rice (think Crunch bars) and, I think, chocolate peanuts. So - be careful if you have a nut allergy because I’m not sure if they disclosed that anywhere, but luckily I was able to fully enjoy it. Bottom line: Completely worth it, and if I’m in the Dallas area again (and remember to make reservations), I’ll surely be back!

The Mercury is a go to for a 5* experience whether it's a casual night out on the town or a celebration. From the valet to dessert, always very good. We usually sent in the bar area and have appetizers and a drink. Last night we invited a couple to join us for dinner. Brandon was our server, ask for him - you will not be disappointed. We started with sushi appetizers, fantastic. Spicy Tuna roll sooooooo goooooood. Our friends shared a ribeye, my wife and I shared the salmon. Everything delicious. Definitely consistent and enjoyable on each visit.

The atmosphere was great the hostess manager and surfing staff were outstanding, and the food was plentiful and very flavorful
