When this place first opened back in 2006, I thought it had some potential. The food was good, the drinks were too, and the service was good. A trifecta. Plus you could watch any sporting event you wanted, a plus.
Only issue I had was the smoke....but for the decent food/service/drinks, I put up with the smoke.
It started downhill in the fall of 2007, and didn't get any better in 2008.
They seem focused now on trying to just "pack the place" as opposed to providing a service to those who come in and want to be "regulars".
I stopped going in March 2008, and I probably won't be back, even after I move back to the area.
I attended a happy hour with friends at Blackfinn's. Four words: Fish Out Of Water. This place works really well for someone, but I'm not that person.
Negatives:
1. Smokey--the dude 2 booths down from us was smoking a cigarella. GAAAARRROOOOSSSSS!
2. TV's everywhere--TV's adorn the walls and there is even a small one in the booth. I was getting motion sick from all that crap. There was no where to go to get away from them either. I felt totally stalked by the TV's.
3. The food--happy hour pizza (margarita style) was made with a flimsy crust and cheap toppings. Looked like hell and tasted like crap. I've had better pizza from a box in the frozen foods section of the grocery. The burger (bourbon street) was OK. The fish and chips were below average. Sugar Bear thought the ones at Long Johns Silver's FAR surpassed the ones at Blackfinn's.
4. The clientele--fake boobs, fake tans, and super trendy people flock here. Not my crowd, but it was fun to observe. It was also fun to watch my husband observing on the sly. :)
Positives:
1. Terrific waitress. She was very attentive, especially considering that she wasn't our server. Our waitress picked up our table after she noticed we'd been ignored for 15 minutes by our server.
2. Cheap martinis. I liked the huge, 1/2 price martinis.
I'm sure my friends will drag me here for a happy hour again sometime. I will be delighted to go and enjoy their company while sipping on cheap drinks. I will not be eating again, and I will encourage my crew to sit outside away from the smoke and overwhelming televisions. I would never chose to go here on my own. Neva eva!
I came down for a networking event for work. It was ok. The room they put us in was tight and dark. The food was nothing to write home about. Personally, I think I cook much better at home. It's a good thing I wasn't there for the food. The bartender did make my drink pretty strong. Did he think it would loosen me up and help me mingle?
I was able to venture out into the bar area on my way to the ladies room though. It was pretty packed packed. The place looked really nice when you drive up. Someone tell me why there needs to be so many handicap parking spots? Don't get me wrong the handicap deserve parking spots but to devote an entire lot? There were no cars parked there the whole time I was there.
There's lots of outdoor seating with the mist on. I think there was an outdoor bar too. I vaguely remember seeing it on my way out.
I don't plan on coming back .
Wow, you guys weren't kidding with you said this place is popular among douchelords and cougars. Came here last Thursday with a group of friends for HH. We had a nice spot on the outside patio and enjoyed the 1/2 off appetizers and cheap drinks. Our waitress was a bit slow (didn't make it to our table for one last round of drinks before 7 pm HH ending) but was nice at least. Can't go wrong with $1.75 domestics and $3 martinis. My favorite appetizer would have to be the hamburger sliders. The inside bar smelt like cigarettes and was full of tools. I would avoid the inside if I come back. Dewar's was there doing a scotch tasting/focus group, so 3 free shots of scotch is always fun. BF wouldn't be my first choice of bars to visit but they have a decent HH. Conclusion: come for HH, but wear shades to avoid striped shirts/Ed Hardy T-shirts and fake tans
We have friend that works here so it's really the first cool place we've been to up here. The atmosphere is fun and positive, which is important! We had to wait a while to get service and some of the bartenders were a bit inconsistent, but overall a pretty good time!
Let me make this clear: I had a great time when I went with my cousin and her friend. I would go again.
We arrived around midnight so we did eventually get a parking spot from people leaving from a late meal (I guess). I was not expecting to pay for the cover charge, but it was midnight and it was busy.
Thank goodness my cousin's friend spotted some friends sitting in a corner of the bar right in front of a bartender (Brett). They said that they were there since 9pm for that seat, so note taken (arrive early).
The reviews that I read before going to Blackfinn were somewhat accurate. I agree that: (1) The majority of the people there were in their mid-20's to early 30's, (2) Some guys were ridiculous, (3) Some girls were ridiculous, but at least there were (4) Some laid-back, easy-going people.
I also want to state that Brett was a great bartender, and I wish he was in College Station.
What went down (from my point-of-view): Guys tend to say strange things like "You'll be seeing me on the cover of Forbes".
I like Blackfinn but usually early in the week like on a Monday or Tuesday night when its not soo crowded like on a Friday or Saturday night. I usually meet up with friends to try and catch up with them at Blackfinn and we usually go during the week when we can hear ourselves.
Bartenders could be better if they were too busy making it look like the don't give a damn about the customer--oh wait they already do that! I have a regular waiter/bartender and he's pretty good but he had to be trained. The atmosphere is nice during the week and they play pretty good music too.

The worst excuse for a restaurant I have ever seen. I ordered a half turkey sandwich with soup combo at cost of $6.99 for lunch for a going away party for a person at work. I kid you not but my sandwich came out like 45 mins later and the amount of turkey on that sandwich was laughable - about two deli slices on it. The sandwich consisted mainly of lettuce. The service was very slow. I blame the kitchen staff more then the waiters because they came frequently to check on us.
I am a quality over quantity person but on both merits they failed miserably. Go if you are curious but you will join the rest of us complaining about this place. I read the reviews about this place before going, but it was the person's choice so it was more company then the place for me.
How many ways can I say SUCK is how much this place sucks. Terrible all around. I would have given them no stars but Yelp doesn't allow that option.
I'm not really sure why I continue to subject myself to Blackfinn. I mean, really, I can tell the difference between Dos XX and Coors Light with a lime in it. Sure, it was only $2 a pint, but I honestly don't think you could pay me $200 to drink that watery, piss-like beer. Oh, and I don't own a skirt that fits like an Ace bandage wrapped around my butt, so I didn't blend in. My friends (who invited me, and hey, let's face it, I have a hard time saying no) and the Mavs game are what kept me glued to my seat.
I did order an appetizer to split with a friend. The grilled skewers (beef & chicken) were pretty tasty (it could have just been because it got the Coors taste out of my mouth) dipped in the terayaki sauce. And I did steal a fry or two from another friend's plate. They were crispy and hot, but they kind of reminded me of Long John Silver's fries... like they had been rolled in "little crunchy things."
I don't plan on coming back to Blackfinn... by choice. I've been there and done that, and I'm done with it. It's time I start going to grown-up bars where I can drink a full-bodied beer, carry on a conversation and still get my 8 hours before work the next day.
Yes, I know it is cool to slam this place because it is Ground Zero for The Douche. But I have come around on Blackfinn's. Drive by the parking lot at any time, and it is packed. People slam it because the cool kids are doing it, then they duck in for a quickie thinking we aren't watching.
This place must make money hand-over-fist and I'm sure the owners have fun rollin' hundreds and doing lines off hookers' asses. I am still hard-pressed to find a better happy hour. I can drop by after work for an hour or so, get some pretty good bar food (try the flatbread pizza) and a couple of pints for, I don't know, $10. Yep, and some great eye candy too.
Most people probably go for the night life, the 'see and be seen' Addison wanna be crowd, but if you… Read more »
Well... I suppose when you don't go somewhere for a while things can change without you noticing. We went to Blackfinn last night bc the hubs wanted a green beer and it didn't USED to suck so we figured it might be ok.
Arrived around 6. NO parking available. Had to stalk someone to their car to get a spot. Went in and were seated right away. They tried to give us a horrible 2 top right next to the door to the patio - which as you can imagine was a constant buzz of activity with people going to and from the patio. We declined and sat at a slightly better table (thank god).
The waiter came over pretty quickly and I promptly ordered 2 green beers! yay! but no.... they were out of green beer. WTF? It's 6pm on St pats and YOU ARE OUT already? Make some more! Whatever. That was a downer. No green beer which was pretty much the entire reason we were there. I got a diet coke and the hubs got a regular beer - that arrived in a dirty glass - eww.
I ordered some cheese sticks because I remembered them as being good and they were ok - not as good as I remember. I also remembered that I loved their chicken parm sliders buuuuuut they aren't on the menu. I asked if they were still able to make them and the waiter said yes so i got them. They were horrible. I'm guessing alot of people were ordering fish and chips that day because my chicken tasted like the chicken at long john silvers. I took one or 2 bites and was like there is JUST no freaking way I'm eating this. They took them off the bill which was nice, but mostly the entire trip was a huge $15 waste of an hour.
I'm not sure why this place doesn't have a higher rating. A group of my friends and I have a get… Read more »
Wanna test your patience levels at a bar - then Blackfinn it is!!!. It may boast to have the biggest bar outlet in Dallas but what's the point when you feel like you have just won the lottery to just get the Bartender's attention to serve you a drink. Let alone getting a drink, consider yourself lucky if they pay attention to you.
That was the state of affairs on my first and definitely last visit to this place. In a way I am so happy I didn't end up going to this place for so long!!
Barring the service, the place in itself is very shindig like.....a huge party atmosphere, patio style bars, huge bar counters on all sides and private party rooms. Definitely a place where you can easily trigger the drinking mood in you but on the flip side the service can trigger your snappy mood as well :) And that ain't a good combination!!
If not for the bad service this place would get better reviews since it has all the other ingredients to make patrons want to have a good time.
Came here to watch a game and get some dinner. The atmosphere looked cool, alot of ppl were chillin outside. One of my buddies and I decided to eat at the bar since the TV's were there. We first sat at a booth, and was not served for 15 minutes. So decided to move to the bar.
The waitress came and took our order. 5 minutes after, she came back and asked what was that again? We also asked to put a specific game on, and it took them 15 minutes to figure out how to do it.
I ordered a burger, my buddy ordered the chicken sandwich. It was soooo bland and dry. There was no sauce on the burger, and the waitress didn't even bring out ketchup or ranch for the fries. The fries were hella cold. Basically the food sucked, but I was hungry enough to eat it. They started playing country music, something you don't see out in California.
I give it 2 stars, 1 for atmosphere and 1 for them putting the game on even though it took awhile.
I would NOT come back here again.
This whole "win a party" at Blackfinn is such a scam, but we all seem to do it anyway.
The food is pretty cheap and blah, and service is always really slow. The worst part about the whole place though is how crowded it gets and what shitbags the guys in there can be.
My friend got her feelings hurt by a group of fat guys in football jerseys who said, "what, is this fat girl night?", and then didn't want to make room for us at the bar.
Offer a free party, and all the losers will come out.
I've been here a few times for private parties, and it has only reinforced my opinion of the place.
It's the hive mind of douchebags in Addison.
If there was an epicenter for the douchebag movement - $30k millionaires and designer jeans paired with button-down shirts with hideous printed crap all over them, this place is it. It attracts the kind of people that give Addison, nay Dallas a bad name.
It's almost always too crowded and forget about parking. The only redeeming thing I can think of is that they accommodate private parties. The irony here is as the party gets later and later the douchebags from the main bar area sneak into the party area, pouncing to attack any female in range.
Please tell me that weeknights are better here because Fridays and Saturdays kinda suck at this place.
In all fairness, I've seen the the bar staff here working their asses off feverishly to serve as many drinks to as many of us patrons as quickly as possible, but it just isn't enough.
This bar allows WAY TOO MANY people inside and out. If this place caught on fire a given Fri. or Sat., everyone inside would be dead or unrecognizably burned.
Definitely one of those bars where you're forced to 'strategize' all of your movements in order to 'successfully' buy a drink at the bar, make your way to the restroom when needed and stand within 5 feet of your friends and not inches from strangers and D-Bs.
Maybe I'm just modest, but in the 3-4 times I've been here, I made a conscious effort not to bump into people, push past them and (when possible) gracefully move out of the way when someone needs to get by. Sometimes the 'bumpings-into-people' is unavoidable and there is just nothing you can do but give the 'pardon-me' hand and head-nod, but there's some real pricks who deliberately bump the hell out of people or just and stand still staring at you when it's obvious you're trying to get by.
Get used to this the b/c it is what you will be doing ALL night while you are inside. Or probably just end up leaving.
The two things that could potentially solve some of this bar's problems would be:
1. More or all patrons using cash only, no tabs.
2. The bar actually complying with it's own fire-code for maximum occupancy.
Until then, maybe I'll try out the Blackfinn on a weeknight... but their weekends are hopeless and stupid.
This place is amazing is many ways
Let me explain...
Cons -
1. this is the home of the douchebag. Picture a bar where 60% of the customers are male. They are all about 5'11-6'5, wear designer jeans, an Ed Hardy shirt or a button down that is too tight, tan skin and lots of gel.
2. parking blows
3. it is super crowded on Friday and Saturday night
Pros -
1. the douchbags are highly entertaining. Seriously, everyone is really nice and the entertainment factor is high
2. if you are a girl. you can probably get some guy to buy you a drink
3. the music, (althought not typical), is good. They play music everyone knows. i.e. NKOTB, Jackson 5, TI, it's a well rounded mix.
So you can make the choice on whether you want to go or not but it is quite entertaining in more ways than one.
My soccer team had it's first ever Happy Hour here last week. I made reservations and they had our area all ready and set up for us....even had balloons out. Maybe because we started at 5 and didn't leave our spot until 10, but I didn't realize how "snotty/slutty" the crowd had gotten. That isn't BF's fault...I guess, but I don't know if they would have allowed us in had we ARRIVED at the time we LEFT. Hoochy mama's galore. Our waiter was super and the bar-tender made my girlie drink just right. The only complaint was that we were a little too happy to notice the added gratuity. Our waiter scored big time with our double tipping table. I guess that is fine...he needed it to make up for some of the snubbing he would receive from others that night, I'm sure.
If you have a big group...do try to make a reservation...it makes life much easier.
It's a shame you can't rate a place with zero stars, because that would be my rating w/ flying colors.
I do not understand my few friend's obsession with this place. I rather gauge my eye out with a plastic spoon than be caught dead here. oh where do i even start:
1. the parking is beyond HORRIBLE... i didn't think it was possible for valet to suck, but some how they surpass the amount of sucking
2. on a busy night they will have door guys that have graduated from working at abercrombie... not sure they have the mental capacity of saying more than hello or a cheesy pick-up line. they will stare at your id as if they have never seen a texas one before in their life... i don't think they would be able to call out a fake id even if it read THIS IS NOT A GOVERNMENT ISSUE ID, hahaha... which leads me to my next point
3. the crowd, oh lord the crowd.... the best way to describe it is a bad audition of mtv's the real world on steroids. it's full of underage skanks with fake ids begging guys to buy them drinks and the stereotypical douchebag.... im sorry pop collared, pink shirt, flat billed hat w/ a bandanna tied around your wrist but im sick of you polluted all the bars and swooning around anything that happens to be standing next to you at the bar. no im not interested or trying to rub up on you, the place is a clusterf*ck and have no option but to stand by the wannabe frat boy and will be forced to listen to their horrendous sleezy pick up lines.
4. the bartenders: "hi i failed out of bartending school b/c i suck that much at life and this is the only place that would hire me". enough said if you wanna wait 30 minutes for a weak ass drink topped with a bad attitude this might be a place for you.
5. i hate drama more than anything and i think i can say honestly every time i have been drug here, i have gotten into some sort of ridiculous immature drunk drama... and not even the entertaining kind. anything from being knocked to the floor b/c one of the meatheads decided another douchebag had a better faux hawk than he did and felt the need to shove him in a crowded bar to only knock over someone such as myself and then has the nerve to get an attitude with me or one of the freshly turned 21, if even that, sloppy drunk girl vomiting all down you this is not the place i would like to party at EVER. Sorry to my few friends who claim to have a good time here, but i will no longer give this place "just one more try". Sorry to my one friend that works there now, but Blackfinn can suck it!!!!!!!!!
I tried to give this place a chance, really I did. I went for dinner one night, the bar scene another. Overall, I'm just not impressed. The food is nothing special - everything I've tried was pretty standard and some of it even bordered on bland. The french fries were kind of soggy and the salads weren't crisp. The ahi tuna wasn't fresh, lacked any sort of noticeable flavor, and didn't have a good texture at all. Service here has been slow each time I visited, though the wait staff is friendly at least. They do have screens for sporting events, but sit outside if you can. The atmosphere out there is better than indoors, which is more uppity. I doubt I will be returning anytime soon.
Blackfinn, which has an Irish name but nary any Irish food, isnt a bad place. I went for lunch, so i'll review that. The waitstaff was really fast and attentive and when I asked for a lemon in my soda I got THREE lemons (+1 star). The french fries are like the ones you get at Burger King, that are kind of breaded or something, yuck (-1 star). The tables have cloth tableclothes with paper on top and the inside. Each booth has a TV built into the wall adjacent to it, but you can't change the channel and they're on mute with no captions, so the TV were fairly worthless when I was there (-1 star!). I suppose they'd be more valuable if a game or something was on.
The food was not anything to write home about, the pulled pork sandwich was good as well as the cole slaw, but the fries were yucky. My friend got a dish that was advertised as having rice pilaf but it was just rice, and she said it didnt really have any flavor.
I'll give Blackfinn four stars, because the waitress was pretty awesome and it was generally a happy place. I'm docking one star because I can see it as a place where a bunch of A-type salesman douches with MBAs go on weekends to be pathetic together.
Its OKAY..
If you go to Blackfinn and you are expecting a good ol' bar expirience you arent going to find it. It gets kind of packed sometimes. the music blows, the drinks are medium priced, if you go, ask for zsanna (jonna) she is definatly the best cocktail and if you need a bar tender ask for Jess, shes awesome. But they are pretty stricked on dresscode... a few of my friends have been turned away due to shoes, hair ect. its not that great but if a lot of your friends are going to be there that night then you should go cause thats the only way its fun. Plus Tony Romo hangs out there a lot, i saw him last time i was there.
Admittedly, I've only been here for an event, but I was not impressed. First of all, the place smelled like a giant ashtray. Luckily, we were in a private room, so it wasn't too bad. I was with a larger group, and Blackfinn did not plan accordingly. I only got two drinks, but had to wait 20 minutes for each drink. We tried some of the food, but most of it was mediocre. The only impressive item on our platter was the fried cheese that was wrapped in crunchy wonton wrappers.
Three stars is pushing it, but that's mostly cause my friends find reason to enjoy BF while I find reasons to stand behind them at the bar and make gagging noises.
Check Steve M's review for the typical dress code. Not that anyone can actually see what you're wearing when you're packed into the place like girls at a Hannah Montana concert.
I've had a few forgettable appetizers here, but I can definitely speak for the cheesecake, which is a example of complete and total CRAP on a plate. Don't even try just to see how gross it is. Its THAT sad. I agree with Andy P. in regard to the food quality, or lack thereof.
I'm not a big fan of the staff, but for Addison, I can say that I've never NOT enjoyed the crowd (this is big for me), even though its always packed. I keep trying to pin them as long lost sorority sisters and Express Men tools, but the people here are just looking to have a good a time and not flaunt egos. Go to Duke's for that kind of business.
The only time I ever go to Black Finn is when my friends have chosen to go there. I definately would never suggest going there. To start, trying to find parking is like winning the lottery. I usually have to drive in circles for several minutes before I can park.
It's a large bar and very crowded, so if you're looking for your friends, that can be a challenge.
The worst part of the bar is it's service. The first time I went there, I stood for 20 minutes with a $20 bill in my hand as the bartenders passed me over and over. I finally gave up and went inside to the other bar. Once inside, I still could not get a drink. A guy sitting at the bar tried to help me get the bartenders attention, but no luck. At this point I was very irritated and decided I wasn't going to drink there. About 30 minutes later, a friend of mine was actually able to get me a beer.
The only thing I like about the place is the music. It's not the same 5 dance songs over and over like most places. Some of the songs are lame, but most are decent.
I have to say I wasn't there to watch a game, just to have dinner... but...
For an "Irish" place it had no Irish food. They serve Guinness and Bailey's and that's it. All the food is made elsewhere... frozen, pre-cut french fries, tasteless sliders, etc. It's sort of everything wrong with American dining...
My brother is in the food-sales industry and I could recognize all this stuff as being straight out of the pre-made stuff that the lowest quality places serve. They charge $10 a drink for their ridiculous martini menu, which are all drink recipes handed to them by the purveyors of the alcohol they serve.
It seems to me like a place where if you had a restaurant start up kit where you didn't need to know anything about food to run a place, this would be the product.
It's all just kind of that, American, food out of a container style stuff. Really, really bad and low quality.
Also, the valet parking made no sense, you pay $5 up front but the valet booth is on the SIDE of the lot... uhm... if I was just going to walk to the side of the lot, why should I pay $5?
It was the worst experience I've had eating in Dallas by far and a gut bomb. Oh well, live and learn.
Forgive me for not giving a proper review, but I have been wanting to vent about this s-hole establishment since I was kicked out upon walking in! That's right, told to leave right after my ID was checked. Here is the story:
After having a few drinks at Industry Bar my friends wanted to change their atmosphere a little bit. BlackFinn is where they wanted to go, and since I'm a team player I agreed. I hadn't been there before so why not. We arrive in separate cars and like most places on beltline in Addison after midnight parking is an adventure. After losing to a bush or shrub walking towards the front door I arrived with a scratched up and slightly bloodied right arm. Greeted by those who traveled in the other car I was optimistic about a scene that easily resembled that of Dukes down the street. The crowd seemed young and possibly under age, but that is the majority of Addison anyways. So it didn't bother me that I was being asked for my ID. I pulled out my wallet and showed my ID and was told to pay the cover charge at the desk, to which I made the comment "You guys have a live band or something?" Upon finishing with two of my other friends he signals the bouncer and points at me and says "That guy! Outta here!"
Now to this day I can only think that it was my comment that made them kick me out. On the other hand perhaps it was my half-bloodied arm. Or maybe they had reached their Hispanic quota for the night! I don't know for sure, but honestly did I do anything to deserve that?
I will not ever go to BlackFinn again. I believe its fate. Not with a friend, not with a group, not on a date!
I was in town for work and this was the closest bar to my hotel, so this was the bar I drank at. If it weren't for the proximity and decently stiff drinks, I would have never set foot in here for the following reasons:
- It's too well lit.
- There's a dress code.
- There's valet parking.
- There's an abundance of men in stripped shirts.
- There's an abundance of women in ill-fitting post-sorority apparel.
- They play a kitchy mix of late 80's - early 90's rock and rap
- There's a high probabilty that most of the bar will sing along with the chorus of whatever song is playing.
If this sounds like a good time to you, we probably shouldn't be friends anymore. Sorry.
Pretty nice place for a bar. We got to watch the last half of the Cowboys game when we got here and there were plenty of tv's to watch from. Later after the game, the old school music was spin'n and there wasn't like an official dance area, but our group made up own little dance section. The dance section only consisting of Francesca L.. Haha! We primarily came here for a friends birthday and so it was really convenient that there were waitresses going around with pre-made Royal Fucks. Tasty Tasty!
I have to say that my roommate got so drunk that he shat himself on our way home. He had a little too many Tuaca Bombs; it just tastes so good right when it hits your mouth!
Yuck. The music was terrible, it was beyond packed and it was less a bar and more a meat market. I made a single walk around the place and had my butt grabbed three times. I know that is exactly what many people go to the bar for, but not me. People just stood around staring at each other... leering, really. It was also pretty impossible to get a drink and if you weren't overtly flirting with the bartenders, it was even harder. Ugh ugh, I just found nothing about this place remotely pleasant.
It's a nice place for happy hour or to just unwind for the day. Not very impressed with the food though, except for the burgers. If you want to avoid the crowdedness and and valet parking on Friday and Saturday nights, it's best to be there as early as 8pm. Sure it may be dead in the early evening, but at least you'll have good parking spots.
I was forced to go to this place because I promised my best friend I would go out with her to this woman's birthday get together. This is just not my kind of place. At all. Just like previous reviews said, it's full of pretentious people in overpriced clothes. And the music BLOWS. I had to get wasted in order to not care where I was.
i came here with friends and it wasn't all it was cracked up to be. they good drinks, food, and atmosphere... but something was lacking. it seemed to be like any other bar. em.
they did have a great staff on hand. very cheery and fast.
Ate there last night and really enjoyed it! The food was awesome-- great overall experience-- I definitely recommend it!
I have only dined on appetizers here, but was pleased each time. As far as the night scene goes..the bouncers are rude and arrogant, and the service could be better. The patio is huge, and I am a big fan of patios. The crowd is mostly younger (20-30yrs.) and it's a good mix of people. There is never parking, but they do offer valet (when the lot isn't already full). I live nearby and this place is packed almost every night of the week. They must be doing something right!
Place was cool. Good place to go chill and have drinks...It is huge, they serve food that I did not get to try but it sounded good. Drinks are strong, people are ok. My niece is a bartender here so yah better tip well!
Went here for lunch with a former co-worker. Service was fast, food was delicious (Had the Stout steak tips, friend had the same with sweet potato fries--yum!). This seems to be a great place to grab lunch or go for happy hour. They have several dining areas, a private dining room and a bar with a pool table. I can't comment on the night life there. It is open late and I've had friends who've gone there at night who weren't feeling it, but they may have been going in with a different idea of what it would be like. It's great for food and I rely on other Dallas-Area Yelpers to find out what the night life is really like at the Blackfin
I went there on a Saturday expecting a good time and I was more than disappointed. When we arrived to pay the cover the hostess kept ignoring us and allowing others to go in front of us. Once we finally made it in we proceeded to go to the bar and order drinks. When I got my tab back I was charged for 4 extra drinks I didn't order. The place was crowded and loud so I didn't even bother arguing with the bartender (Joshua). Lots of people, good music but service was horrible!!!!
