Paparazzi Chophouse

Wanted to go somewhere nice and mellow for dinner & this is the Place!! It is absolutely a VIBE!! Love the darkness in there setup is really elegant and Beautiful they instantly greeted you when you are seated. Our server Emmanuel is absolutely the best. He came every second to make sure we was fine. Helped out a lot about the menu when I had questions for the drink and food, but the food was absolutely Goooddttt. Appetizers I had the coconut shrimp, & the meatballs and they were flavorful. The sauce is very good. For entrée hot honey fried chicken /Greens/ sweet corn. And to top it off Crème de la was very creamy and sweet 😌

The elderly folks not lying about the music getting louder and louder as the night goes on. But it is definitely a vibe for a younger crowd. I came here for my cousins birthday on a Friday night and we sat in the lounge area in the back, it was a small group only 5 us off ducked off. I got all the appetizers I could eat and the catfish (and grits) which I took Togo that came in handy at 2:30am and for breakfast the next morning. I ordered a side of whipped mashed potatoes but it was bland, completely tasteless and I had to send them back. I definitely seasoned the catfish more at home as well so that says a lot about the flavor for sure!

The staff members were as amazing as the food and ambiance. From time of seating until we left the restaurant, the staff was extremely hospitable, knowledgeable of the menu items and well organized. The food and cocktails were absolutely superb! Thanks Paparazzi for making our sister’s birthday dinner one to remember.

Excellent food, Excellent service, I think our waiters name was Xavier. We had a large group of 12 and they took Excellent care of our table. Management stopped by and did i say the food was good was very nice portions. Yes I will return. Strongly recommend reservations

My first visit here was for my 41st birthday. This was a really nice place, The staff are amazing, the whole atmosphere is very pleasant. The food was so good. My favorite was the candied cream corn, lol.The valet was a simple and quick interaction. The whole experience was amazing. I will definitely return. Also, after 10 p.m., one side of the restaurant turns into a lounge.

The atmosphere didn't meet my expectations for the name and the "rules" that came along with it. The service was average, nothing special or memorable about it nor the servers themselves...except after about 2 or 2 1/2 hours, we were told that we had reached our max time at the table (we were a party of 7). The lamb and wagyu meatballs were not seasoned enough for me but my daughter liked 'em. For $17, I got 4 decent sized, supposed-to-be coconut shrimp, but I didn't taste any coconut. That pasta and chicken dish was almost $30, and although you can't tell in the picture, it was a toddler-sized portion, so it was returned. The shrimp and artichoke dip was pretty tasty. The Brussel sprouts were a 6/10. The shrimp and grits dish was a small portion for the price. I didn't taste the lamp chops, but the presentation was cute. I'm told they were boring. My friend enjoyed the Mac & cheese but the rest of the meal was just OK. The lounge is for the young folk. Seating in there is only available if you're buying bottles.

From the moment we walked in, we felt incredibly welcomed. The ambiance was just right—warm, inviting, and perfect for a birthday dinner or any kind of celebration. The music added to the lively yet comfortable atmosphere. Our server, Jada, was truly exceptional. She was engaging, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our night memorable. Her energy and enthusiasm made all the difference in our first time her. The mushrooms were easily a 10/10. Highly recommend!

We popped in for dinner after a long day and before an early flight. We were not dressed appropriately (not terrible but they have a dress code which I respect). It was early and not busy yet but we decided to walk in anyway. They could not have been nicer. (We even offered to go to hotel and change quickly!). We sat at the bar and had some delicious cocktails followed by appetizers and steaks. The bartender, Sydney, was lovely, attentive and very friendly as well as super accommodating when we were looking for a specific scotch… she brought over a few great selections! Just really a wonderful example of customer service and experience. We felt bad for the tshirt and my slides but we slid out before the chic evening crowd showed up. Its just nice when people accommodate the exception. Its a very casual world these days and sometimes you just want a delicious meal and crawl in the bed! Thank you for a great experience. We will be back soon. 10 stars for all of it! ❤️ (loved their caesar salad ….just perfect!)

I'm giving this place a 10 out of 10! They did not disappoint! The hubby and I did not have a reservation, and the bar area still felt as if we had our own table! The wait staff did an exceptional job with checking on us and ensuring our food and drinks were good! Drinks: We had the house Champagne, and it was delightful! Not bitter but definitely bubbly with a crisp taste. Food: When I tell you my Spicy Penne pasta was so good, I almost went back the next day to get it again! It was not overpowering, but just enough for me to enjoy each bite and satisfy my appetite! Atmosphere: The place was nicely lit and enjoyed the ambiance of the lighting. I enjoy a dim lighting vibe, and it met my standard for a nice romantic evening! I truly recommend this establishment for an amazing date night and/or a special occasion. You will greatly appreciate the atmosphere and the special zing it brings. I plan to return to this restaurant soon! As a food content creator I always look beyond just finding a place with great food, but a restaurant that provides an encounter! I rate my food moments on food, drinks, and atmosphere and you all did a phenomenal job with all three. I truly enjoyed our New Year's Eve experience and I definitely plan on coming back again! I hope you keep up the great work and have a wonderful HAPPY NEW YEAR

Arrived early for a 12p reservation, and was seated quickly. Everything really gives me speakeasy vibes.. which is really nice! I remember coming here before and it was just a steak house. The music is a vibe.. alot of R&B from destiny child's to prince.. it was just a tad bit loud though. My sever Aaliyah was very knowledgeable of the menu and checked on us regularly. My food braised beef short rib hash was good.. but not a lot for the price of 32 dollars. The lobster Benedict for 34 was good and had more than enough food, to feed 2 people. There's no parking, so you can either uber, valet or park by the biscuit bar for a fee. 20% gratuity will be added to all checks no matter your party size. Overall it was nice. I gave it 4 stars because the food tastes just like every other place.. and I was hoping for a more surprising experience based on prices and social media. I will however be back to see what their night life is about.

Paparazzi Chophouse truly lived up to its name--an experience of lights, camera, and tantalizing food! Despite the chilly 22-degree weather outside, the warm ambiance, elegant vibes, and great music created the perfect atmosphere for our evening. Our server was incredibly attentive, making us feel like VIPs throughout the night. They were spot-on with their recommendation--the candied cream was the perfect complement to the flavorful crab cake frites. Every bite was a delight! We celebrated a birthday, and it couldn't have been at a better venue. The entire party felt like celebrities, and the exceptional service, combined with the delectable food, made the night unforgettable. Highly recommend Paparazzi Chophouse for any special occasion--or just a night where you want to feel special!

Cool experience.. Service was pretty fast which was good because I was with a large party.. Ambiance was buzzing and busy, it was giving lounge/ club vibes.. Good music/ playlist... Plenty of TVs... One of my server didn't have tv e best of attitude, wasn't warm and very rushy.... Food was solid, my steak was good, the cream corn was very good, good flavor with a little sweetness to it.. The collard greens wasn't good at all, i took one bite and said no thank you!! And the server told me they just redid the greens and they was so good.. I would go back again maybe just get a quick bite at the bar or something..

Between the amazing service from Jada and the happy hour I will absolutely be returning. Ambiance: The decor was cute and I loved the music. They played good RnB all evening. Service: I hope I get Jada every time. She was super personable and made sure we got our orders in before the happy hour was over. Her energy was great. Food: I'm shocked that the apps and cocktails we got were only $10 each during happy hour. My drinks were delicious and they didn't skimp on the liquor. I can't remember the name of the drinks though. My favorite app was the meatballs. Ooh it was so good! I also got the HH cheeseburger but was only take a bite because I was full from the apps. The fries were seasoned with old bay and so good. Overall I say give this place a try. The main menu had some good options too but at least check out the happy hour.

I went to Paparazzi Chophouse for my friend's 47th birthday dinner, and we had a great experience. Our group of 11 was seated comfortably, and despite having just one server, everything was handled efficiently. There were no issues with our orders or the bill, and the restaurant was able to accommodate separate checks, which was a huge plus. We started with a variety of appetizers before moving on to our entrées, and everything was well-prepared and flavorful. The atmosphere was lit, with a great DJ playing music throughout the dining area, adding to the overall vibe. My friend specifically wanted to support a Black-owned restaurant, and this was a great choice. They also have a lounge area, which adds another option for guests who want to enjoy the ambiance in a different setting. Overall, it was a fun and enjoyable night with great service, good food, and an energetic atmosphere. I'd definitely recommend it for a group dinner or celebration!

I went to Paparazzi Chophouse for a birthday brunch. Upon arriving I was impressed with the red carpet setup outside. I had high hopes and honestly they didn't disappoint. The ambiance and service were great. The drink I decided on was the barenaked lady. The shape of the glass was a ladies body and the drink was strong and tasty. I got the shrimp and grits. It was one of the best shrimp and grits I've had. It was delicious. This spot also has a day party. I plan to go back to that. The room that the day party is held in has amazing ambience and I can't wait to go.

Tried out Paparazzi Chophouse for date night and it did not disappoint! This dimly lit restaurant with eye-catching photos definitely creates a nice ambiance. It was a bit of a wait due to the servers having a meeting but nothing too extreme. We had a friendly server named Stormy who took care of us and made great recommendations. I ordered the cedar plank grilled salmon and my date ordered the Hawaiian ribeye. We shared Mac and cheese along with Brussels sprouts. The salmon was prepared exactly how I asked as well as the steak. The sides were tasty as well. This is definitely a good spot for date night, birthday dinners, or just a girl's night out. They also have a lounge connected to the restaurant which is pretty fun with a good dj! Check them out!

I came on a Friday Let's start by parking. I didn't valet but there was no options to park on the street across from biscuit bar was $23 for the parking lot which I opted not and then the parking garage was $7 for 1 hour and 2 hours $14. Once arriving to the restaurant it was nice. FYI they have a 15 min grace period for reservations I was almost at that grace period but we made it there just in time. I had the strawberry basil daiquiri it was good not strong but it was sweet and it was a little overpriced. For my meal I ordered lamb chops which is an item they are trying out and wasn't officially on the menu. Overall everything was good loved the vibe the food was good but I didn't like that they didn't valet nor did I like that they charged 20% gratuity for 2 people.

Dishonest bartender in lounge. Visited on a Saturday evening to celebrate a friend's birthday. Ordered a french 75, glass of wine, and a Michters Rye Manhattan. Bill came out to $128, including the gratuity which he had already added and he didn't provide an itemized bill. Decided to not make a big deal because we were out to have a good time. Those three drinks should've been $60 at the most. Ordered an old fashioned from the female bartender next go around. She provided an itemized bill and didn't auto include tip. That drink was $20. Much more transparent and honest transaction. Doubt I'll ever be back, but hopefully management sees this and conveys to staff the importance of being transparent and honest with paying customers.

Paparazzi was definitely visually appealing, but the taste of the food in my opinion fell short. When you walk inside the lighting is dark with tons of beautiful floral accents and it definitely gives upscale. We went on a Friday night and there was a dj playing r&b/ hip hop music. The servers were so attentive and pleasant! Our glasses were always full and everything we needed we got quickly. I ordered the crab cakes.... but there was only 1 crab cake and it was flat. Not sure what kind of crab meat was used, but it was not the jumbo lump crab cake I'm used to getting. It appeared to be pan fried in butter and flattened with a spatula. It was very greasy and filling forward which was disappointing since the crab cake was the most expensive thing we ordered. The Caesar salad was delicious! The fried green tomatoes were just ok as they were very hard to eat. If you bite it, the tomato slides right out of the breading, if you left it on the plate and used your fork to cut a piece of the tomato you have use all your might! I didn't like how tough the tomatoes were. If I where to ever return I would stick to drinks and ceasar salad.I wasn't really impressed.

I really like this place, such a cool vibe, this place is not your typical restaurant it is more as a lounge with louder music and hookah room lounge, food is always good, service is pleasant. Maybe if you are looking for more romantic quieter place this is not the best pick but if you like chill lounge vibe with good music and food that's definitely the place for you. Last time I went I had BLT salad and wagyu meatballs and they were delicious!

Foodie Alert! I had a dope dining experience at Paparazzi Chophouse offering high-quality steaks, chops, and southern-inspired dishes. The venue also features a cocktail lounge, PAPZZ, with live entertainment on weekends. The services were superb and the food was delicious!! I had the spicy chicken penne and it was so flavorful! Now the Barenaked Lady cocktail was just ok. I wont hold that against them lol. Overall, I highly recommend going! It's a whole vibe! So go check them out and tell them Ms Hope sent you! 2525 Elm St Suite #150, Dallas, TX 75226 #MsHopeEats Barenaked Lady Fried Green Tomatoes ‍ Vegan Tempura Mushrooms Crispy Chicken Bites Spicy Chicken Penne

Loved the ambience. Noise level was high but that was what I expected. Food flavor was good but not super GREAT. One of the items we ordered was the bone-in 40 ounce steak, which the bone was probably half of the total weight....lol. The BLT Salad came with no bacon. Our server was friendly but I thought for the prices he would have been well versed in all the menu items. He didn't have a sense on steak recommendations. I'm a little bit of a food snob and I don't mind paying for excellent food and service, but I thought the restaurant was more of a place to be seen with the overall food being 3-star. At the end of every year, I take my now grown kids to a special place as a thank you for being great, productive humans. I thought they might also enjoy the Paparazzi Lounge, but at 9:45 pm it still wasn't open due to a late party they were still cleaning up after. In any event, I'm glad we came as I enjoy trying new restaurants but probably wouldn't be a return customer.

The service was not my favorite took a very long time for food to come out. The food is OK more on the pricier side, beautiful restaurant, but the music is too loud.

Service was excellent, food was amazing and your server Xavion was great and helpful. Ask for him whenever you're there

This place is so fun! We went for my cousins birthday & we had EZ as a server, he was so cool, quick & funny af! We loved him, the food was ALL 10/10 & the drinks. The lobster was so good, my cousin got a steak & they melt the butter table side for you. Afterwards we went to the lounge area that was on the other side of the restaurant, man the DJ was sooo good! He played all the good r&b 90s/2000s & even some current but we vibed the entire night!

I really enjoyed myself. Food was delicious, staff were somewhat attentive and the vibes were nice. Service was running my food all over the place because I guess the bar is not numbered. But I had the short rib and it was deliciously cooked.

Excellent service. Food didn't disappoint. It's rare in Dallas to get the vibes and good food. Paparazzi is the perfect date or girls night.

Went tonight with my daughter, she invited me I'm sure because I been in the house not wantin G to do anything, I had brain surgery last year oOctober 2023and the depression is real bad, my only daughter turned 26, she waa enjoying herself, thanks to her friends that came out because of ended leaving, my headaches were starting too bother me, so as I'm getting ready to i had the bonding egg rolls, it wasn't good to me. Or it could been that reremoulade,they have salmn, maybe if they could put it in a different sauce, it was good now. A honey type bourbon sauce will be nice, even if they let people choose thier sauce. My only complaint was if you go to reestutant like this and people are paying good money at least have sanitary iteonin the restroom,like toilet seat xovers covers The waitresses were all attentive

Service was good, ambiance was good and I really appreciated my waiter. Gratuity is automatically added but I didn't mind it because he was so good. I liked my drinks and my Brussel sprouts were delicious. I had the braised ribs which were ok. I'd like to go again to try something different though. Overall I wouldn't mind visiting again. Parking seems to be valet only but it's affordable.

Food is GREAT, service is good and bar still has work. Didn't have Hendricks or Glenlivet which is pretty common in 5 star dining here in Dallas. Also the bartender couldn't remember our drink order so This the 4 stars. However the food was immaculate and Storm served us well. The vibe was old school classy with a hint of modern day lounge scene. Will definitely visit again.

Nice vibe and atmosphere..good music and food.. service was great made every accommodation I asked for..

My friend chose this place to celebrate her bday at and this place disappointed us... We waited for over two hours for our table that was reserved a week before for at 915pm we showed up and they told us a 30min wait which then turned into us just settling and eating at the bar tops that didn't offer any space to eat... The service was slow and caused us to be late to our events we had planned for afterwards... The food and atmosphere has GREAT potential but i would suggest this place put a time limit on tables that way everyone can be satisfied!

Amazing. Our bartender was great, I can't remember her name, I just know she was pregnant, but I loved her! The peach sidecar was da bomb and the blackened fish on grits with the crawfish sauce was soooo good!!! I really enjoyed it. They also have a lounge. Valet is only $5. My friend had the old fashion, Brussels and lobster roll sliders. Everything was good!

Very nice environment, good food, great customer service BUT drinks ok BUT can't taste the alcohol.

I finally got a chance to check out this beautiful restaurant! My sister and I sat at the bar, for their HH called Golden hour. Which is so bomb btw, you have to do yourself a favor and check this spot out. The ambiance and service is amazing! I will definitely be back for dinner. Great food and service is hard to come these days. I believe Golden Hour is Tuesday-Friday from 5-7. It features special priced apps, cocktails and wine! You won't be sorry, thank me later!

What an amazing new beautiful sexy ambience restaurant. My favorite dining establishments have a dark lounge vibe. This one does not disappoint. We (3 of us) dined at 5pm last Sunday for one of my birthday celebrations. It's only been open a few weeks. We felt so special and VIP since we had the best table in the restaurant and it overlooked the whole restaurant and we were the only ones there for the first 30 min lol. The management, staff, our server were excellent and very attentive. The food was delicious. We started with the coconut shrimp and boudin egg rolls. I had the filet and lobster, my companions had the blackened catfish and risotto. It's a great spot for happy hour, dress up with your girls, birthday party, private event or for a romantic date. I would totally host a private event here. Also checkout the side late nite lounge. See you at happy hour! and check out the photos.

Place won't make it. Identity crisis. Food overcooked and almost not edible. Overpriced for the value. Service & ambiance were great but doesn't make up for other issues. Turn your awful music down. Either be a steakhouse or a club. Not both.

Yalllllll do not sleep on Paparazzi Chophouse ! Me and the girlies came here for brunch on Sunday and the food is so good, the drinks is hitting and I only had one, and the vibes are immaculate The manager Emily was sooo sweet and gave us champagne and a tour of the lounge area. Our waitress Davina was very attentive. Everyone loved the food they had ordered. I personally had the blackened chicken and grits, I would get it again. Definitely check it out if you're in deep ellum bottle blonde area. I will be back to check out the lounge on a weekend out.

The paparazzi chophouse is an experience beyond words, make a reservation asap and tell em Barry sent you!

This was a sexy spot for a date night. We thoroughly enjoyed the drinks and food. We'll definitely be back soon!

I took my mother to dinner for her Birthday, and we loved every minute of our experience. We had an amazing waiter named Ramy. If you are looking for quality service from start to finish, please request his section! I highly recommend the lobster rolls for a starter, the pork chop as a main and of course that amazing chocolate cake to finish the evening! Chris Jackson, the GM, made sure our experience was spectacular as soon as we walked in the door. The bar manager Gil, made an amazing mocktail, made of grapefruit and basil and other items I am not sure of but I know it was amazing. All around, we had a great experience. It was a great atmosphere with a lot of high energy and cool décor. It definitely left a great impression on us and we will be back again soon!

The food in my opinion is 100000/100000! Our waitress was named Storm. She was so nice and sweet. The ambiance was relaxing and paced. Amazing place, 10/10. Not a debate.

I have mixed feelings about paparazzi. This used to be harpers, and I gave Harpers a bad review and I feel like this rebrand was forced. The restaurant is beautiful. Customer service was good but the music is so loud that you cannot hear yourself. Think the music is good. They play 90s R&B, but it's blasting throughout the restaurant people enjoy dinner with companions, and friends and you can't even hold. A conversation. Prices were decent. I really like the jumbo coconut shrimp Drinks are expensive and gratuity is add to the checks may go back I may not that should Also, that lounge that they have that you can walk through paparazzi to it I'm about 85% sure they are either watering drink down or giving bottom shelf alcohol presenting as top shelf. Twice I've been there and I've had a headache like I've drunk vodka and I've had two different types of tequila. Something is not right.

Service is a big issue here and this one Manager/Security who isn't experienced in the working with high end clients. My wife & I visited with a 10:30om reservation as it was the last reservation left. Was greeted by two hostess who escorted us to our table. Super tight next time another couple. I asked to be seated at another table which was a little larger just not cramped on both sides. Tables were available even though they denied us the ability to move. As I spoke to the hostess respectfully and calmly along with another Manager INMER who was fantastic! If you go there ask for him, he's great INMER. This one security guard manager with Dreads kept overstepping butting into my convo with the hostess and INMER, just unprofessional. Never even introduced himself as INMER did. It took a while and many calls to attention to finally get our waitress. Storm! Storm was great! Amazing and her service kept me from walking out. Crab cakes, good but little salty. Spinach, same. Grits were good, stuffed flounder was good too. Lobster Mac amazing. Coconut shrimp well over cooked, Brussel sprouts too much sauce. Drinks were good too! Music and vibe was good. Gets a little louder and ratchet toward closing to get people over to the lounge. Too me music should have stayed mellow but it's not horrible. Give them a 6/10 the manager/security dude with dreads and glasses needs more training he's horrible. Never introduced himself so I can be sure to list his name. Get him outta there energy is horrible.

Horrible experience. Wait over 45 min to be sat then it didn't even accommodate our amount of people. To wait over hour to be told we can't be served. Poor management who was rude and not understanding when there were open tables that could accommodate our amount. Plus few people in there didn't meet the dress code requirements. Way to ruin our friend's 40th birthday. Would leave zero stars.

Paparazzi Chophouse is a joke. I ordered a $166 Wagyu last night and it only felt like $25 and regular cow going down my throat. Not like grass fed Wagyu from Japan AT ALL. I ordered it Oscar style and somehow that didn't involve crab ??? Every time I asked them about the crab, nobody could tell me where it went..? When everyone knows Oscar style is a lump crab topping. I sent that sht the fck back after I took two bites. Like y'all coming out here w/ flames for a steak that wasn't even hot fire. They was smoking dick if they thought I was bout to have my man pay $166 for a $20 piece of meat. Our server was slower than actual molasses. Like I've actually never had SLOWER service. It took her THIRTY minutes to bring out my cake. We had to ask THREEEEEE TIMESSSSSS. Like tbh it was one of the most half dessa dining experiences I've ever had. And they ruined my birthday dinner

Went here twice within a two week span and the service was great both times. The food tastes good as well. Emily from their management staff took care of our party made sure we were comfortable!! Will definitely be back

My husband and I had dinner at the bar. The restaurant has a beautiful look, and the vibes were all there! I ordered the Spicy Chicken Penne which was delicious! The chicken breast was so flavorful and juicy, the pasta had just the right amount of seasoning and spice.

We visited opening weekend and had a blast. The food was amazing. The restaurant has a really fun vibe, great music and wonderful staff. Our server for the night was Ramy and he took exceptionally good care of us. He did an excellent job of walking us through the menu. I selected the Hawaiian Ribeye based on his recommendation and it was delicious and very well plated. The cocktails were creative and flavorful. Ramy recommended a cocktail called the Barenaked Lady that had peach and cranberry in it. It was also very good. We had a great experience and we will definitely be coming back soon.

The food,ambiance, and service was great! Our waitress was amazing and informative. Ask for Kayla her service is top tier

The food at this place is out of this world good. I had the blackened catfish with collard greens along with scattered crawfish. Well seasoned, cooked to perfection and very delicious! Service was on a god like level. Never had to look for anyone or raise your hand to flag a server down. Outstanding service. Being in this place made you feel like you were on vacation, furniture and decor were very nice. Drinks were also phenomenal! I highly recommend no matter the occasion

I went for a birthday party. It was a large party and the waitstaff provided excellent service. My steak was cooked perfectly and tasted great! The smoky bourbon was so good I had 2. This place is a definitely must try

The elegance, the vibe, the ambiance!!! The DJ was fantastic and the appetizers were outstanding! The lobster Mac and cheese needed a little more flavor But other than that, everything was perfect! Emily and her team made my birthday an evening to remember. Our server, DaVita, was excellent! This place has "all the things." If you're ever in the Dallas area... It's a must!

I had a great time it's a really chill upscale vibe but the manager Emily made it really wonderful

Very excited for this new steakhouse. The food, dining experience, vibe, and customer service was 100/100. We absolutely loved the attention to detail. The ribeye was a perfect medium rare and the blackened catfish was a welcome surprise given how harsh a critic we are with seafood. I highly recommend trying this place out!

10 out of 10! We dined during their opening weekend and were shocked to find out that they hadn't been opened for several months because our server, Daveda, and the rest of the team were true professionals! Also spoke with the GM Chris, and he sang the praises of his staff. Dallas truly has a gem on our hands in Paparazzi Chophouse!

Great ambiance, great food & great service! We really enjoyed our dining experience! Managers Chris & Gill & our server Collyn exhausted every measure to ensure that our experience was positive. We highly recommend Paparazzi Chophouse for a distinctive dining experience!
