Dirty Bones

I had very high hopes for this place, as the reviews I had seen were pretty decent. I was prepared for a wait due to the fact that it is right across the street from American Airlines. I came in and was not greeted appropriately with a "hi welcome in " or " we will be right with you" or even greeted by a host. Instead it was just standing around and waiting to be acknowledged by someone. This was a major let down especially since multiple staff members walked by and noticed the abundance of people at the door. We were seated and waited for 15 minutes before we decided to leave. Multiple staff members again, walked by without acknowledgment, including someone who looked to be a part of management. As a person who works in the service industry, I recognize and understand the overwhelming feeling a place and staff can have while being busy. This is no excuse for being unseen and overlooked by numerous people. That being said I also understand the need to greet customers and how important just a simple " I will be right with you" is. Because of this, I will probably not be back. I wanted to give it a try because everything looked great!

Jess server Kay bartender Bryan manager, have made our night. We came here before a stars game and wanted someplace new. Very happy with the wings oh my g very very good. Good amount of meat, great flavor and the buffalo is NOT acidic at all!! Love this place.

My husband and I are staying across the street for our Anniversary weekend. We stopped by yesterday on a whim and were so impressed with the staff, atmosphere, and the food! I woke up this morning thinking about the Queo-Dillas and Dirty Tots. Just got back from our second visit and still amazing! We had the same server and she is the best! We tried the Boneless Wings with the PBJ and 24k Gold sauces. So good and not over powering flavors which can be a problem with wings! We will probably be back tomorrow to try the Double Smash Burger. You seem to have the perfect recipe for a successful restaurant. Please open one in Louisiana!!! 😂

Waited about 30 min for two tables. The host was AWESOME he was clearing tables & sitting people. Our waitress was just ok. Never refilled anything. More worried about serving other tables alcohol. Our 3 items took over 40 minutes to come. Food wasn’t hot. Other tables around us were becoming very annoyed too. Pricy wings, blah sides.

Stopped into Dirty Bones in Dallas and had a great experience with Cooper at the bar. He was attentive, welcoming, and clearly cares about the guest experience. What killed the vibe was his manager, Brian. One of my drinks had visible residue on the rim, and Cooper handled it exactly how you’d want. He apologized and poured me a new one. The bottle was low, so it wasn’t a full pour. I told him not to worry and to just top it off when he had a second. Later, when I reminded him in front of Brian, Brian cut in and asked, “Do you have a running tab?” It came off like he was accusing Cooper of giving away drinks. I had already paid, and this was just a top-off on a drink that should have been full in the first place. Instead of backing up his bartender for fixing a small issue, Brian created an awkward and unnecessary moment. To avoid making it worse, I opened a new tab and paid again so there was no question Cooper did everything by the book. That should not be the kind of pressure someone is put under for doing the right thing. Cooper was great. Brian’s tone and behavior made it clear he cares more about control than customer service or supporting his team. I’m going to leave one star not because of Cooper, but because of Brian and because I think one star will get more attention to this post.

We stumbled upon Dirty Bones after our Katy Trail run and had only meant to cool down with a frosty cocktail. Then we figured no harm in ordering some wings as well before moving on and were impressed with how good they were. The bartender was super friendly and even threw in some complimentary tator tots. Definitely plan to come back for the wings in the future!

Today me and my daughter came to have dinner. We have been here before but today our server Jessica was super sweet! She went above and beyond for us! We live close and come here often! If you’re in the area stop in and ask for Jessica she’s the best!

I have been here several times before the Dallas Mavericks Basketball games. Always have had excellent service despite the restauraunt being very busy. The food has always been delicious. They have many options and outdoor and indoor seating. It can get loud inside and they have several televisions playing different sports.

Visiting from NJ and this place was delicious!!!!! I could taste a little hint of coconut oil in my food and it was delicious! Totally recommend. Great prices for delicious food. We got the fried Zheng chicken sandwich, and the lemon pepper wings with Zheng wings. 2 cocked (refills free! I got like 3) lol Total of $49 for two :) and we did not even finish it all so overall totally recommend.

Every year I try to visit this location in hopes things have gotten better. Service continues to be very poor, all the workers are in the back on their phones or talking with each other hardly greeting anyone. The friendliness of this place is lacking as greeting customers or noticing peoples orders are taking a long time are of no concern to staff nor the new management. The previous times myself or my coworkers have actually received service the wings were cold. I waited for a to go order and it took 10 min to be greeted and my order took 30 min. Only until I asked where was the food? It had been sitting in the back for a while per my waitress. The manager wanted to give a discount then free. But I asked him to just improve the culture and service and received my refund. In declining his gesture the manager was just as every bit the problem of the culture. Not sure where the owner is but this place could be making more money with just the basic courtesy of being a restaurant with good leadership and staff.

Nice service, just distracted...perhaps too many responsibilities. Food is okay - they were accommodating to vegetarian requests. Very clean and a wonderful outdoor space.

Tater tots were delicious. I did not prefer the wings. Service is okay, not bad, not great. The tables are high tops and the seats are bar stool type. But my sister and I kept sliding off the chairs, finally I just decided to stand and eat.

Amazing food! I'd get either the Mediterranean wings or 24k gold wings. Go on a Sunday because the atmosphere for Sunday football is awesome and the service is outstanding. 10/10

I love a good wing and this place understands the mechanics behind making a good wing. My husband and I enjoy going here, the service is always good, it's never obnoxiously crowded and their drinks are good as long as you get the right one lol! They remind me of BWW but with their own style and twist.

Fun vibe restaurant across the street from the AAA ... arrived early for a concert and thought we'd grab a bite to eat first. The restaurant was not busy with no wait to sit down Ordered some classic boneless chicken wing flavors (BBQ, Lemon Pepper, Garlic Parmesan) and something new (PB&J). Service was just OK, not overly friendly or helpful where as we waited for a bit to be greeted at our table, we were not given menus or silverware until we asked. Overall wings were good but was expecting more flavor than what they offered.

This place the food is a must have!! 3/30/24 was my 2nd time actually eating there this time. We met who we thought was a bartender, anyhow he Recommended some food on the menu which was buss-in.. And he made us feel welcomed and the environment was great music and TVs everywhere! The food is so good the hot Cheetos fried pickles ate a go too!! The bartender was actually a down to earth cool guy who knows his menu of great food was the new GM!!! This GM is going to do great things to this place!!

This review is strictly based on service. The bartender Ema is extremely and wildly racist. Any of my fellow 'non-whites' will tell you. So if she's the only bartender there and you're not palm colored .. save yourself an hour and hit up another spot. I left a previous 4 star review for the food off the strength of delivery. In person the food is even better. I love that the bar is usually pretty open seating wise because I'm a sit at the bar person .. but one thing this place lacks in ... service. The service is terrible. My drink was empty over 35 min. Never received a menu; just my empty cup & I looking lost & bewildered. You'll never guess who my server was. Luckily, there are 1-2 servers if you're lucky enough to catch that will be extremely helpful. I found those 2. One was Devin .. amazing girl .. apologized profusely for the negative interaction I had to deal with and made the rest of my visit immaculate. I'll come back and update this if I catch the other girls name. The two stars are for them and them only. Tip those women extra! Avoid the racist at all costs though. We came to enjoy a brew and wing it up, not deal with blatant disrespect. (The food helps you swallow that pill of possibly having bad service a bit easier) but if they ever fall off just a smidge .. this spot will go up in flames.

I saw this place on Instagram and was really excited to try it. It isn't bad, by any means, but it is over hyped. The wings were just okay, and it wasn't very busy at all when we went. We started with the jalapeño poppers, which were good. I ordered the Nashville Hot wings and the Garlic Parmesan wings. The Garlic Parmesan wings were pretty good, although oddly tangy. The Nashville Hot wings need to be renamed. They're just BBQ wings. Overall, this isn't a bad place to go if you're already in the area and craving wings, but it's not worth the trip if you aren't already nearby.

Had great experiences before but not tonight! Hardly anyone in there and got the wrong food and warm beer. Will be sure to not come hungry or thirsty before an AAC event next time! Terrible

This place has great chicken they know what they are doing. I've been in a couple of times, before attending the Dallas Stars games at the American Airlines Center. The first time we got super fast service and got in and out pretty quickly before the game. The second time we ordered pretty quickly, but the kitchen was running 45 minute ticket times. The food was great both times and the manager gave us a discount for the wait on the 2nd visit (we still made it in Rome for the game). We'll be back.

This was my first time having dirty bones. My sister made a few suggestions on different types of wings and their burgers. So we opted to try 20 count bone in conditional wings with different sauces, boneless wings dry rub okay aka Cajun, and a kids cheeseburger. The food remain warm and will serve hot. The flavors on everything including the fries and the tots were very good as well. Their burger had a good flavor to it and was a good size especially for a kids meal. I will definitely be back.

This place has some of the best wings in Dallas! The flavors are top tier! Patio was nice and service was amazing! If you love spice /flavor and craving some good wings definitely come here. Wish I had photos but will definitely take some next time.

We came here before seeing John Mayer. It's in a super convenient location right across from the AA center. It was packed, but that's to be expected at a place like this. Don't come here seeking intimate conversation, it's more of a bar scene! Everyone who helped us was very sweet and friendly. That being said, service was painfully slow. I know they are busy and am not upset by this, just trying to keep my review helpful and transparent. We ordered the wagyu hot dogs. Based upon the prices and length of time we waited for food here I was expecting this hot dog to he absolutely delicious. I would say it was average. Not bad at all, but definitely not a $13 hot dog in my opinion. They also have a very skimpy amount of fries added as a side. The tots were spongey and a bit soggy. I was also not a fan of their "dry rub" seasoning (garlic parm and lemon pepper). Please don't perceive this as negativity, again I simply want to be honest. I could not taste these dry rubs on either our fries or tots. Overall, I might come back in a pinch if I was close by and in need of food, but I'd want to have plenty of extra time and to expect to pay high prices for middle- grade food. Not a bad spot, but not my favorite either. A cool place to come drink, and a short walk from the venue definitely helps.

The food was delicious! The burger was HUGE. It's a fully load burger that was so so good. The service was awesome. We were the first ones in but the atmosphere was cool & calm. The ambiance was calm too

Happy hour menu on the table and after we order they say happy hour doesn't apply on game night! Here is an idea...hide the happy hour hour menu, or tell us while we are ordering and pointing at the menu it doesn't apply! Slow service!!! Got there at 5:40 for a 7:05 stars game and it was about 60% full...got our food at 6:20...40 mins a long time! Asked for bone in wings and got chicken nuggets! Flavors lacked and no atmosphere! Place was dirty biz!

You'll see why Dirty Bones in downtown Dallas is one of these best places to watch sports all day and eat lots and lots of chicken wings!! A short walk to the American Airlines Center in downtown Dallas!! The Jamaican bone-in chicken wings are yummy and burns my mouth!!

In short, I won't return. Sat at the bar and the bartender was so dry initially. Her attitude was almost as if they were closed and I picked the lock to walk in. I asked for a 10 wing combo and she asked me if I wanted bone in or boneless, and I confirmed bone in. Fast forward to the bill (~$26.00) and I questioned the price. I was THEN told bone in wings don't come in a combo, it's only the boneless ones. **thinking, then WTF did you ask me for initially??** Overall, wings we just alright but something about the sauces werent sitting well with me. Fries, to me, weren't good either. They added a little sprinkle of 'gold' on my gold *whatever wings, but they're not good enough and too high for me to return.

The chicken sandwich was legit Chicken sandwich 17 coconuts Fries 5 coconuts

The waitress was so nice it was a cool vibe not to many people was there. The only issue I had was that the wingz wasn't all the way cooked, and the fries had too much seasoning on them. Besides that, it was cool.

Found a really long hair in my burger when I got home. They would not refund me without me coming back to the restaurant.

Our company works across the street so we decided to try the new place on the block for lunch! We came in with a group of 10 and we're immediately seated. The music was groovy and there were lots of TVs to watch any sports game. We were at the restaurant for about 1.5 hours with it taking about an hour to get all of our food out (I don't recommend coming for a quick bite). Overall the service could have been better, but I understand they're newly opened. I ordered the 10 boneless wing combo with onion rings on the side. I got Asian Zing and Cholula Lime flavors for my chicken and tried the "chicken roulette" spice challenge with my entire team which was kind of fun. My coworkers tried the 24K gold, PB&J, sriracha ranch, spicy garlic, teriyaki, and BBQ flavors. They all said the food was great too! The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the onion rings were thin and crispy. Overall the food was great! Seems like a fun place to go before a game or concert. Happy hour is from 11am-7pm which is a huge plus compared to other options in the area.

Honestly, its a cool place and great location. Our server was very nice they have a great location. Overall, experience was good. However, not great. Service was snail-like. Just very slow. Which is fine if you're in no rush. We were, unfortunately. I ordered a pretzel chili dog and I just expected something a lot better. It was okay. To be honest, it was disappointing but it didn't taste bad. It was just meh. I also ordered tots. Again, disappointed. They were just soggy and unappetizing. They also didn't put enough on my plate. Like I'm a small guy and don't eat as much as the next guy but there was just not enough of them for what I paid. May give them a try again in the future because I want to like this place. But , we'll see.

Solid 3 stars honestly. The server was very nice and attentive. The atmosphere is alright. It's the food and drinks that fall flat for me. None of the drinks were to our liking and the tots were extra crispy. The price for what we got was not favorable. It's honestly pricy imo.

First off, this place is 10/10. The overall environment was definitely sports bar because it's across from the AAC. So during events, the place does get packed. Casual attire is what I wore. Our server was nice and fun. Very attentive to what we needed. It was my friend's birthday and they brought out shots with a happy birthday sign and fire sparklers. The strawberry envy drink is a plus! You'll definitely get a buzz after your 2nd drink lol. The flavors I ordered was siracha Ranch (dry rub) and Nashville hot (wet rub) and it was fairly good. The tater tots are nice and crispy. I would recommend this place. It's fun and gives a good vibe.

Good food, big portions, quick service. Great location. Overall good experience! Boneless wings delicious, same with chili cheese hot dog, fries are not my favorite but that's just me being picky. If you're around American Airlines or Katy trail it's a good place for a quick snack

Good bar food, great service and convenient location to AAC. We were looking for different restaurant in the area, before the Stars hockey game, but decided to eat here because it was packed with Stars fans (always a good sign) lively, and close to AAC. Although we couldn't find a table for four, the manager looked around, shifted some chairs and set up a table for us very quickly. (we were super appreciative). Our waitress was friendly, quick with our drinks and answered our questions. She was waiting on lots of tables but was always checked on us and responded when we needed something (like more drinks). If you're in a hurry, they get you out quickly. If not, stay as long as you like, enjoy the wings, cold drinks and conversation. Try it if you are near AAC and looking for a fun joint that is reasonably priced.

You never know how the service will be. I've giving up on giving these guys chance after chance. This last time, the service was actually very good but was disappointed on the serving of sweet potato fries. My bf ordered regular fries and his serving was twice as much.

Good food and super convenient across from the American Airlines center. They have both indoor and outdoor seating with lots of tvs. They had happy hour specials on both food and drinks until 7. I had lemon pepper bone in wings with sweet potato fries and they were very good. We also had the chips and dips to start which all three (salsa. queso and guacamole) were excellent. My son had a grilled chicken sandwich with crinkle fries and my hubby had a burger with tots. All of us enjoyed the food. The service was a little slow but thankfully we were there early so it was fine. Overall it was a little pricey compared to what we received but it was good and better food by a long shot than having to buy food from the concessions at the AAC.

Had lunch there last weekend. Service was solid. Very attentive & informative server who was handling multiple tables. My teenage son spilled his sprite and the server's reaction was pleasant & helpful. Bartender was also upbeat & chatty. My chicken sandwich was spot-on. Good fries, too. My son's bone-in wings were decent. My son (a foodie) felt the seasoning was added after cooking instead of during cooking. I'm not sure that's correct or even matters. Just sharing what he said. We weren't down with our fried pickles appetizer. We were expecting the Snuffer's sliced-pickles variety rather than entire spears, which were a little tough to eat. Overall, we'll be back.

Getting in about an hour before the Mavs game, we were able to get a table without waiting. The frozen Tito's Lemonade is so tasty. There is also a good selection of beers, no tap. We started with mini-corn dogs, they came out hot and crispy, really good, then had boneless wings with a couple of the sauces the server recommended. The place was packed when we left, everyone seemed to be having a great time. This is a cool sports bar with plenty of TVs. Side note, the bar chairs are metal for those of us who do not have cush in the tush.

The wings here are always crispy and fabulous. Definitely get the dirty tots and the funnel cake fries- they are the best ever

Seriously, some of the best wings and service in dallas. Much less how convenient it is when you're seeing a concert or going to an event at American Airlines center! Make sure to get the fired pickles and the 24K sauce! Indescribable. Our server, Aleaha, was also very knowledgeable and super duper cute.

My husband & I decided to visit despite ALL the negative reviews bc I am a YELPER & a FOODIE!! That being said, we had a GREAT experience; Eric the Mgr. & Tatiana, the Bar Server were Wonderful..very attentive, knowledgeable & courteous. The food was FRESH & TASTY, NOT FROZEN...24k Gold (wing sauce) is the ABSOLUTE BEST (better than Pluckers) and the fried pickles are soo unique, you have to try them. The uptown girl drink was soo good but they should make it a martini bc the ice melts soo quickly (not their fault) ~ overall, we had a great time!! Make sure to try it out for yourself, it's definitely worth it!!!

No joke this is the best chicken I have ever had. Service was off the charts and nothing will compete with how good this chicken was! I got the sweet and spicy chicken tenders. Mariam was our waitress and she needs a raise with her best in class service!

Service was good. Our smash burger was great. Our wings and fries were undercooked. Wings were below warm and rubbery skin and cool starchy center of the fries . We were the only customers so it was disappointing how those items came out undercooked. Lots of fruit flies interrupting the meal as well. We would go back for the burgers but would skip the establishment all together for the other reasons.

Went in at 9p on a wednesday place was a third full. Was told to seat ourselves. Waited 20 minutes with no service. Pretty terrible when you advertise to the locql apartments to come there. Dont waste time.

Overall it was good service and good food. The two complaints I had was how long it took for our food to come out and the restaurant wasn't very busy. And those chairs are very uncomfortable. We had the Bone in Wings in medium and they were good.

Overall this place was a good experience, wings came out hot and fresh! Flavor was great, service was great ! Went on a Monday at about 6 pm and it wasn't crowded at all. Wouldn't mind coming back ! Bone in Wings

I'm not sure what everyone else had, maybe it was because we came during the day-- We had the smash double patty and frozen Grey goose drink. Both were delicious. Will be back to try more!!!

Time between getting there and getting our food was way too long. Got part of my order wrong. Food tasted good. Would give this place another chance hoping I'd get my food faster at least. Made up some lost ground by giving me a free shot for my birthday.

Had the bone in wings with fries. They were delicious. I also had two really great margaritas. This place is right across from the American Airlines center on Houston street. I came in during a STARZ game and it was moderately crowded. Once the game was over it got crowded fast. Sat at the bar and service was fast.

I Gave 4 Stars... It Would Have Been 5 But The Service Was A Bit Slow... BUT!!!! Overall The Food Was Good, Fresh & Most Of All Hot!!! And Shout To Jarrett The Guy At The Bar I Appreciate The Service... Definitely Will Be Back!

Waited for over an hour for our food. Wings were okay, not great. Tots weren't crispy. Onion rings were cold. Staff was apologetic and gave us a discount for the food being so slow but overall this was a two star experience.

It took us 30 minutes to get our grilled chicken sandwich, chicken wings and tater tots. The tater tots were undercooked (soft) and the wings weren't special - seemed like every other wing shop. The sandwich actually looked good but just overall not worth it.

I came at a busy time because Adam Sandler had a show in an hour and a half, so the line was out the door. I get that. I was fine with that, as I had an hour and a half to kill. A hostess came out and asked everyone in front of me if they wanted up be added to the list. The two gentlemen directly in front of me asked about sitting at the bar, which was already my plan since I was alone. She directed them inside. She then looked back at me, made eye contact, looked me up and down and walked back inside. I was appalled! I looked nice because I always dress nicely, so I don't know what her problem was. I really hate to, and it disgusts me to assume it was because of my race (I am a young black woman with natural hair) but situations like this make it too easy to make that type of assumption. Needless to say, this establishment will never see my money.

Food looks good enough to eat...and it is.The fried chicken and waffles are insanely good as is, I imagine,the entire menu when I get round to trying it all.

Wings were not very good. Mediocre at best. They were dry, we should've asked for extra sauce. Not very much meat on the wings. They were kind of over cooked. The guac is decent and so is the salsa. The chicken sandwich was lacking not very good quality for the price. Probably won't go back
