Written by the Seasons, The Quad

The concept of small and large plates made a family-style meal amongst us perfect. We secured a reservation on a busy Saturday, but did need to book 2 weeks in advance. The atmosphere is so sultry and warm. Each dish was a mind-blowing creation of pure deliciousness and color. What truly made our time there incredible was our server Rory. He really made our experience top notch! We cannot recommend Rory enough if you get the privilege of having him.

The kimchi pancakes are a popular dish and a lot of people really like them (myself included). We got the carrot muhammara, kimchi pancakes and the mushroom plate as appetizers. The muhammara with the pancakes was actually a good combo. I was surprised at how amazing the mushrooms were as well. My husband got the duck confit for his main and was very happy with it. I got the steak, medium rare, and it was cooked perfectly. The outside was crispy and the inside pink. We did end up asking for some salt and that elevated the brussels sprouts for me (I like things salty). The only thing my husband and I were not a fan of was the mashed potatoes. They had a creamy gravy mixed in and it wasn't a flavor we personally prefer. Overall, I think the appetizers were very good and I could easily have an entire meal of just the apps. At the end of the meal we were both very full and took most of our main course to go. Service: The staff was very attentive, knowledgable, and professional. The chef asks that all the food (except dessert) be ordered at one time and they will space it out when they bring it to you. I like this system, it made the experience much more effortless. Although, I think they are still figuring out the flow and pace of the customers because at times there was not enough space on our table for all the appetizers and they were trying to help us clear off mostly empty plates so that felt slightly rushed but I think it's something they will nail down soon. Atmosphere: I love the interior. It's cozy and has big windows. The furnishings are cool. I am a fan of the design. We did notice that some of the tables for two (like where we were seated) were very close to the other tables (so you can easily hear each other's conversations) if that is something that bothers you it may be a good idea to request different seating. It was not a problem for us as we were not discussing private matters but I wouldn't want to sit there for a first date or a business meeting. Parking: They have valet and cover the cost of this, so parking was not a problem.

This place has outdone itself again. No matter what you get off the menu, it’s going to have beautiful textures, colors, and flavors. My favorite tonight was the duck confit. Our hostess Audrey, and server Sam were both absolutely lovely. It just goes to show how great the management at both locations is, because the experience is always so nice and elegant all around. I’ll be back!!

Written by the Seasons in Bishop Arts has been one of our favorite restaurants in Dallas since they opened they have outdone themselves now with this second location. It is romantic and sexy… it’s nice that it has a very different mood from the other location which we also love! The food was spectacular as always, with the freshest ingredients and super creative menu options. We love that there’s also an extensive menu of delectable cocktails and mocktails. It’s really nice they will also be open during the week for lunch. We can’t wait to go back.

Service was great. Cod fritters are standout appetizer and shallots are amazing entree. The cocktails were so unique in their flavor profile and atmosphere was cozy for date night. The best!

Phenomenal service with our server JoJo but I think the food was a bit underwhelming. The wild mushroom was a perfect blend of different flavors yet the grilled cabbage didn't stand out. The duck confit had just a little bit of taste, as well as the ingredients beneath. The wine list is comprehensive, but it'd be great if the staff could give me a heads-up that the Riesling from Mosel is off-dry. Will come back again and give it another shot.

Everything we had was great from the cocktails to the mains. We are looking forward to coming back for their patio area, as it starts to get warmer. Our server was Matt, who did a great job!! We especially appreciate they spaced out our dishes so we were able to enjoy our night out without feeling rushed. Thanks for the great experience and wonderful food!

What a fun Valentines night! Our server was Rory and only having worked there a couple of weeks he was so knowledgeable. We started off with the burrata and it was wonderful. I’ve never had roasted grapes before and they were exquisite. Then we had what was the best thing all night you shrimp, and avocado “salad”. He said it had been on the menu for all three years and I can see why it was fantastic. Then we had the lemon caper snapper. Came out hot and delicious. Rory recommended for dessert The Ginger snap which honestly I wasn’t sure about but oh my gosh, it was so good. I took home a couple bites to have with my coffee in the morning. Can’t recommend this place enough 10 out of 10 will see you again.

I am so thrilled WBTS opened in uptown. This is very much one of those places, if you know, you know. The food is such a great quality, the people are friendly and they did an amazing job with the design. This location feels like the older sibling to the Bishop Arts location, the bar centering the room, the red marble throughout, the low lighting it's so romantic and vibey. Definitely a local spot to stop by for happy hour or a great option for a nice date! The food is all amazing, it does change so I'd trust the team to point you in the right direction!

Get the kimchi pancakes!!! They are a popular dish and a lot of people really like them (myself included). We also got the carrot muhammara, and the mushroom plate.

They had a creamy gravy mixed in and it wasn't a flavor we personally prefer. Overall, I think the small plates were very good. You could easily have an entire meal of just the small plates and even share them. At the end of the meal we were both very full and took most of our main course to go.

This was a long awaited visit to Written by the Seasons at the Quad! The service was just how I like it...a lot of attention to detail. For dinner, I enjoyed the Dayboat Scallops. The savory scallops with the sweet potato puree and roasted squash was a sweet and savory combo that I literally seek for my special meals. The guava cheesecake traveled well as a to-go item. Welcome to the neighborhood WbtS! Cheers!

I was so excited to try this suggested Michelin restaurant. The food and the atmosphere was amazing. The service was on point as well. The pork belly was mind blowing. Highly recommend this place.

Great experience from the appetizers to the entrees. Had the duck for my entree and it was cooked perfectly, crispy skin and moist! Service was friendly and attentive. Prefect for date night or just because you want to treat yourself to a good meal with great ambience!

Great new chef-driven spot in Uptown. It's a beautiful restaurant with beautiful food and impeccable service. We loved the kimchi pancakes and the ribeye. Going back this week!

Sat on the patio with a friend and had the blood orange marg, cabbage dish, and buratta. The food and drinks were amazing. We switched to wine and were in love with the fabulous stemware. Although we enjoyed beautiful weather on the patio, the interior was romantic and a great vibe. We made fast friends with many of the staff - Adrien and Audrey are two names I recall, but everyone was so welcoming and friendly. I look forward to coming back to this uptown location very soon, and checking out alllll the stemware :)

Truly a gem of a restaurant! This brand new location at the Quad in uptown Dallas is phenomenal!! Every bite was delicious, and I can't wait to try the menu for next season! Excellent service from Sam and Audrey! The music and lighting were absolutely perfect as well! I cannot wait until my next visit! I highly recommend the Duck Confit, it's absolutely resplendent.
