"Celebrating beet season with a vivid dark pink-purple beet hummus that arrives with golden, crispy naan still glossy from the pan and an assortment of vegetables. The plate includes cucumber slices cut on the bias and endive leaves laid over a bed of Kiefer yogurt and feta, finished with a generous drizzle of olive oil." - Courtney E. Smith
"Hit up happy hour at this Lake Highlands spot on Tuesday through Friday from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. It includes house martinis, house cocktails, select wines by the glass, and select neat bourbons by the glass — all for $10. The food menu has deals, too, like a $10 a la carte burger, $5 Goldie’s “20 Feet” fries, $10 coconut shrimp, and a $10 rotating crudité platter. While you’re in, stop in the bathroom, and see how many “Goldie’s” you can count on the ceiling." - Courtney E. Smith
"When Goldie’s opened, the idea behind it was to have a nice neighborhood restaurant in Lake Highlands that is good for date night but also welcoming to families — even with kids. If getting your kids used to fine(ish) dining is on the agenda, Goldie’s has kid-approved items including burgers and fries — there is also a crispy cod cutlet for the fish sticks loving crowd. It’s also a good place to start expanding their palate. As for adults, the magic chicken thighs never miss, and the chopped salad with shaved prime beef is a smash." - Courtney E. Smith
"This is one of the few fancy-looking places with an upscale menu in East Dallas for a date night or just a nicer night out. The move is to order the magic chicken thighs and a cocktail and let the good times roll." - Courtney E. Smith
"Lake Highlands gets a much-needed neighborhood bistro with this opening. Its signature dish, the magic chicken thighs with mashed yams and mustard greens, is reason enough to get in ASAP but the carefully selected list of wines by the glass and natural wine options are a fine reason to make plans to linger." - Courtney E.
