Cadot Restaurant in Dallas - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great food. Great service. Great experience. Definitely recommend!

So French Restaurant French Boss and French Atmosphere It is A good, Enjoyable Place. Thank you for this evening the magnificent snails The tiptop veal and the foie gras Superb Thanks for the Digestives

Excellent menu and dining experience. Owner is usually in house, so good quality control. Chef is hands on and the prices are very reasonable

THIS IS TO THE MANAGEMENT OF CADOT: Came here for my birthday. A waiter named Benjamin made a racist comment as I was ordering to remind me that “this is a french restaurant, not a Chinese restaurant, so the food isn’t going to come out all at once like you’re used to. (I am NOT chinese nor did I ever indicate that I was expecting a family style meal). He also refused to apologize.

Wonderful food. Great atmosphere. I love this place!

Always enjoy returning to this neighborhood gem. Never had a bad meal

Our waiter was very, very peculiar. Extraordinarily intrusive, seemed to hurry us along. Missed clear cues. Spoke too much. The only big downer in an otherwise splendid meal.

Jose was our server and he was amazing!! You must try the crème brûlée when you visit. Very relaxing environment for a nice meal.

The food was awful! I am never coming back!

Amazing French restaurant with great food, comfy atmosphere and great wine

Celebrating our 52nd anniversary, Saturday evening,an early reservation. Our server, Riu, was attentive and accommodating, we would recommend requesting him as your server. Born in Portugal, he spent time in several countries and he and his wife owned and operated a restaurant in Luxembourg for many years before moving to the US. Very interesting life. Susan enjoyed her shrimp and scallop linguine and I thought the flat iron steak with green peppercorn cream sauce and pomme frites was perfectly prepared at medium rare. The portion was ample and beautifully plated. We opted for dessert over appetizers. Susan ordered the chocolate souffle and I had the lava cake and both were outstanding. We live about two hours away, but we will definitely dine here again.

Great good, wonderful service, maybe a tad noisy for us.

My parents insist on coming here every time they visit Texas. The French onion soup is delicious. The waiter engaged with my 1 year old and had her laughing and smiling.

Great food. New waiter did not tell us about specials though.

Not going to find better quality food around.

Fantastic chef, food, ambiance, live music. We really enjoyed with our group of friends. Thank you!

We have party of 20 people in private room. Everything was planed very well. The food was delicious as well as service. I would recommend this place to everybody.

This is the very best North Dallas neighborhood French family restaurant/bistro. The food is always top tier, prepared fresh and perfect. There are monthly offerings that vary with the seasons that are always a delight. The prices are very fair, so much better value than you would see in most of the fancier French restaurants towards downtown. And, the service, by an established and seasoned regular crew of waitstaff, is the nicest and best around!

Thoroughly impressed! I searched for a highly reviewed place that I could take my family to while visiting the area. Cadot lives up to the high reviews! Delicious food and drink, fantastic service, great ambiance.

Wow, I loved the attention, they are there if you need something

Cadot is such an amazing restaurant! Service is impeccable and they treat you like family!

First time dinner at cadot and it was a great experience. We will definitely be back.

Great place for meetings and socials! Great food and drinks. :)

I had my best birthday dinner here. We ordered Goat cheese salad for appetizer, sea-bass, and lamb for entree. All foods we ordered had perfectly balanced taste and texture. Food presentation was so colorful and pretty. Wine we ordered was Alexander Valley Chardonnay. I loved its slight carbonated touch. It went well with sea bass and lamb of course. We ordered chocolate lava (Fondant au chocolat) for dessert and it was perfectly cooked with proper sweet and bitter. Lastly I appreciate birthday surprise creme brûlée. It was my best creme brulee I’ve ever had. Will definitely revisit :)

Nice place for a birthday ... food is good

Wonderful Prix Fixe menu for Valentine's day - excellent food in a lovely setting. Chateaubriand and Duck Confit were both great.

Consistently top shelf food and service in a casual but elegant venue.

Our server was very nice, attentive. He did make one miss-step. He did not bring our guest sparkling water until he asked for it a second time.

French Onion Soup; Crab Cake; Veal Scalapini; Filet Mignon and Soufle were excellent. Vladimir who plays an electric accordion is outstanding and plays romantic songs of your choosing. Been here a dozen times over the past few years and it is always outstanding.

The Dover Sole was the best I have ever eaten, and it was prepared and served perfectly! Just the right amount, too

I enjoy people who love their jobs. It was clear the wait staff enjoyed their jobs and took pride in the quality cuisine the chef creates. You walk in and it immediately feels like a long-standing establishment. Most customers seemed like regulars as the chef made the rounds chatting. It was maybe a little over priced but still solid. I would come back.

The best part was the musician- he was amazing, made up for very mediocre food

Wonderful experience. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Great romantic date restaurant.

This place had a wore out look, when we entered on Christmas Eve. Once it was probably a nice restaurant but it has seen better days. The food was horrendous. My wife and I ordered the chicken Marsala. The taste was like it had been cooked all day. Nothing fresh about it. My wife took a few bites and couldn’t finish it. The same with me but I had a few more bites before I quit. My daughter had the sea bass and she told me it tasted very fishy. I advised her not to eat it. My son n law could not eat his either. My wife refused to let me talk with the waiter since it was Christmas Eve. The bill was $169. I also left tip, in the spirit of Christmas. I will never understand how these places stay in business. Whataburger would have been a better choice.

As always, Cadot's did not disappoint. Our New Year's Eve dinner was outstanding. Couldn't ask for better food, service or ambience. It's one of our favorite restaurants.

The food was solid but the service was ridiculous. Got the veal and the meat was small portioned for 60, but we enjoyed well enough, got the bill for $350, tipped $40 Waiter came back and told us it was not enough! Asked us to increase the tip IF YOU OWN A BUSINESS, PAY YOUR EMPLOYEES. I spend $359, rounded up to $400 and the employee said not enough! Tip culture is out of control

Good French food, good a d friendly service. We go there often. Try it!

Disappointed with the lack of concern about me biting on a piece of glass in the butternut squash. The manager nor the chef came to me to talk about it. First time there and will not go back.

Every dish we ordered was fabulous! From the calamari (a favorite), mussels, seared foie gras, escargot in cream sauce to the french onion soup - it was an exceptional culinary experience!!

First table at which we were seated was far too noisy despite Open Table request for a quiet table. Staff quickly and graciously moved us to a quieter table. So, no harm, no foul. Great experience once we were moved.

Wonderful fresh food, great specials, a true gem.

They do everything well. Always enjoy chicken Marsala

Wonderful neighborhood restaurant; excellent food and service. This was not our first visit nor our last.

This guy can cook! Excellent restaurant with some gems that are hard to find. And, the accordion player adds an element you can’t find anywhere else.

My escargot with butter and garlic were great and theosso buco was absolutely wonderful

Appetizer were overpriced for the portions. Mains were phenomenal. Wish they had a proper cocktail menu. The atmosphere and decor is definitely outdated. It needs some modern touches all around. We enjoyed our time but will we go back? Not sure.

Not a lot of privacy We enjoy our meals Will be back

Had a great dinner. Food was fantastic, great wine selection, and excellent service!

Good food AND quiet enough to talk!

Lovely Thanksgiving dinner and for the person not fond of turkey, a great steak.

Benjamin was wonderful. Knowledgeable and very helpful in telling us about specials.

I wouldn’t recommend this place. Our server barely spoke 20 words to us the entire time we were there. Drinks weren’t rung in, he would never come to check on us, and the atmosphere was god awful. It resembles a retirement home cafeteria. The food left a lot to be desired. My wife got the filet which had an old taste. Not aged, but more like it sat in the fridge a couple days too long. It was one of the worst filets I’ve tasted. The lamb was very tough. At the price point I was very disappointed. It was about $200 for 2 people and immediately after I was ready for a slice of pizza or a burger as this would have been much better and way less expensive. It was one of the few time my wife and I were kid free and could get out for a date and sadly I wasted it on this place.

Amazing food,service and ambiance topped off by the best soufflé in town.

The food was not as good as on previous visits. In particular the seared fois Gras was not good at all - not seared and very fatty.

One of our favorite restaurants in Dallas. The food is consistently good and the wait staff is top notch.

This is our favorite restaurant in North Dallas.The best food prepared from scratch by French chef, service always incredible by French waiter.Our friends and us always fill special and welcome in Cadot, Maria Bourland

We had the chicken Marsala and it was beyond divine. My friend and I both said it is the best restaurant we’ve been to. We’ll be back

We love French food and this was our first French Dining experience since relocating to the Dallas Metroplex. The food was great. Walt, our server was excellent and so very friendly, polite and attentive. Very good bread to start. Appetizers were good. (Crabcake and Foie Gras.) Butternut squash soup was decent. Our entrees were good "clean" food that was not overly sauced or seasoned. Very fresh and great food quality. We had the Dover Sole and Veal. We recommend both. Save room for the Souffle for desert. One of the best souffles we have tried! That was definitely the highlight. Only recommendations would be that the restaurant could use new flooring to refresh the ambience and the hostess stand as well. But those were not detractors at all from the dining experience.

We picked this place because of the reviews and it's proximity to where we were staying in Dallas. When we arrived we were greeted and seated immediately. The ambience reminded us if a caricature of a French restaurant and we could hear the strains of an accordion playing somewhere. But don't get me wrong - the tables were set beautifully with white linen and sparkling glass and silverware. Our waiter Ramon brought water right away and asked if we were ready to order drinks. This is where it gets interesting. I ordered a Manhattan, my wife a Paloma and our friend an O'Doul's. Ramon went away and we were brought lovely bread and butter. Ramon returned and confirmed my wife's Paloma and the O'Doul's and asked me again what I had ordered. He came back soon with the Paloma and a tall glass for the beer. No Manhattan. A few minutes later he arrived with the O'Doul's and proceeded to pour it for our friend. Down the side of the glass and onto the table, that is. He just poured a little and then set the bottle down. We just kind of looked at each other like were in a Monty Python sketch. He returned a few minutes later with the Manhattan, which was superb. We had also ordered escargots bourguignon with butter and garlic sauce as well as the warm goat cheese salad with mixed greens, prosciutto, pine nuts, and asparagus with a balsamic vinaigrette. While we were waiting the accordion player swirled around the room playing both at tables and spaces in between. We decided his name was Pierre. The somewhat surreal nature of the experience was getting to us and we were laughing a lot. "Pierre" is an accomplished player, but sometimes it's a bit loud in the small room. The appetizers arrived and we dug in. The escargots were cooked perfectly and beautifully garlicky. The salad, however, is a rock star! The proportions couldn't have been better, the dressing was very well-balanced, and the toasty ball of goat cheese was gooey and warm all the way through. Just amazing. For our entrees my wife ordered the Flat iron steak with frites, our friend the risotto with scallops, shrimp and salmon, and for myself the scallop and shrimp linguine with mushrooms, spinach and champagne sauce. Ramon asked if we wanted anything else to drink and I said we would like 2 glasses of the St. Emilion with the food. Ramon said that would be fine and to remind him of that when the food came (?). And the accordion played on. The appetizer plates and silverware were cleared and then the entrees arrived via another server - very good. We were still laughing at the overall experience and having quite a good time. The we dug into our entrees. Oh, my. Everything was absolutely spot on and wonderful. My linguine dish was perfectly cooked and proportioned, with the scallops melting in your mouth and the shrimp with a perfect texture. the steak frites (medium rare) was outstanding and the frites were crispy, and the risotto was beautiful. And everything was piping hot, which not everyone gets right. The wine was deliver in 2 small carafes and poured into our glasses without hitting the table, and was very good. About this time we decided that we wanted a soufflé for dessert so we ordered the Grand Marnier version. Ramon took the order and confirmed that we wanted chocolate. No, we said, Grand Marnier. We also ordered crème Brule to share between the 3 of us. The soufflé arrived. It was just beautiful. Fluffed up high and light, the server cracked the top with a fork and we poured warm cream into it. Wow! This is probably in the top 3 desserts I have ever had, and that's a lot of desserts. The crème brulee was perfect as well. Overall this is a wonderful place with remarkably excellent food. I wouldn't hesitate to come here again and again, and heartily encourage everyone to do so. Say "hi" to Ramon and Pierre for us. They were fabulous.

Absolutely delicious appetizers and entrees and outstanding service! Kudos to the chef and his team!

Best French restaurant in the city. Gerard is the best. He is always overseeing the operation and is the nicest guy you ever want to meet. The risotto is absolutely incredible.

We went for a special occasion, my aunt’s birthday. Everything was delicious and we were greeted by the hostess with our favorite table . It could not have been better or more special. Thank everyone for making this a very special occasion.

The food was great, the atmosphere was great, the service was outstanding. The pecan crusted Seabass was incredible. The calamari was cut into strips, and was extraordinarily tender.

A very peaceful atmosphere and excellent food and service.

This restaurant is a gem. Best French food I’ve had anywhere in Texas by far! The waiter was fantastic, there was a guy walking around playing some sweet jams on an accordion, the restaurant space and decor is stunning, and the food was 10/10. Great spot for a date or a fancy night out.

The rack of lamb was excellent, itself, but the accompanying vegetables were overcooked.

Unfortunate...been a customer for many years...hostess very unattentive....food was subpar

We had a lovely dinner with old friends and enjoyed our server who was charming and efficient.

Always enjoy Cadot!! Very accommodating, service and food are always good and you can have a conversation too. Great for lunch or dinner!!

Wonderful as always.. favorite place to dine!

Fabulous food and stellar service. Always good! Soufflé us to die for!

Great restaurant for a quiet conversation/romantic dinning experience. Food was very good.

We truly enjoyed our experience at Cadot restaurant. The waiter and other wait staff were very professional. Great selection on the menu, and what we ordered was amazing. The drinks were very good. We expect to be back soon!

One of Dallas' finest for French Cuisine. The food and service are exceptional and an added plus is that you can actually carry on a conversation and hear what others at the table are saying! Eating at Cadot is a relaxing and rewarding experience, and be sure to say "yes" when they tell you about the dessert souffles---what a perfect way to end a truly fine meal.

Excellent food, excellent service. The service is really notable - most of the wait staff has been there for years. They make a career out of that restaurant.

Cadot has become our favorite spot for French Cuisine (and we have tried MANY in the metroplex). The food and service are always exceptional, and you can actually carry on a conversation with others at the table and hear what they are saying, which is so rare in Dallas restaurants. Be sure and say "yes" when they mention their dessert shuffles. It's the perfect way to end a truly delightful meal.

Fantastic food by an excellent chef with a great team! It’s no wonder that we dine at Cadot Restaurant time and time again!

I Love Cadot's . I return there for the Quiet atmosphere, the exquisite food and the genuine , marvelous service. I highly recommend the seafood risotto.

Incroyable!! The sea bass special was divine! The service was attentive and personal. Lovely location. Best part? Not too loud! We could actually talk and enjoy our meal!

NEVER RETURNING! The food is above average but not stellar. Service is lousy. The 3 tables of regulars around us all explained that you have to know who to request as a waiter or you will be ignored like we were. It was so bad, after 20 minutes waiting for a premium glass of wine, I went to the bar and got it myself. Bartender said "I wondered who that was for". She poured it when I ordered and it just sat there. This happened all night. Our waiter was a ghost while the other tables were treated like royalty. Normally I tip 15-50%. This time I gave a pity tip of maybe 5% on $180 tab. The restaurant retaliated by telling OpenTable we were a no-show so I couldn't write this review. I got a nasty-gram from OpenTable reminding me to honor my reservations. Still no points given for this lousy experience but now you can read the truth about Cadot.

We went to celebrate our marriage with close friends and family. Our server, Wal, was really kind and brought a fun dynamic to the table. He was very knowledgeable about the wines we were choosing from, and he went the extra mile to make it a memorable evening by sending over the accordion player to play a wedding song and some sweet romantic tunes. At the end of the evening with dessert, he brought out a nice liquor complimentary for our celebration. The food was excellent as always, and we can’t wait to celebrate again with Cadot!

Benjamin was great! The food was excellent! Highly recommended!

Without a doubt the best French food in DFW. The owner and chef walk the floor and talk to the customers asking about their meal but also about them. We go often and have never been disappointed. Whether you eat in the main restaurant (very nice) or in the bar area (more casual) you are well served.

The food is great! Service is excellent.

Would have given them all 5’s but it was our anniversary and I let them know in advance. Other than the hostess mentioning it when we arrived they did nothing! Waiter did not even mention it. Food was outstanding

We enjoyed our meal and service was mostly good but the noise level was more than we like. When spending $200 on a meal, we expect to be able to hear each other talk and between the groups and the Accordion player it was just too noisy. I don't know why restaurants think we want to hear accordion music while we are eating and trying to have a conversation with our fellow diners.

Absolutely outstanding food and very good service 

We enjoyed this place for a date. There was an accordion player who played, giving a Parisian vibe. Service was outstanding Walter was our server and he was wonderful. I can recommend the veal scallopini and beef lengua.

The Dover Sole that one of my guests had was beyond DELICIOUS. Wish I had order that. Instead, I had the Tender Loin steak. It certainly was NOT PRIME as found it to be tough and not all that great tasting. The wine and deserts were top notch. Overall, a very enjoyable evening.

Great place for lunch or dinner!! Food and service are awesome!!

Always fantastic- wait staff is tenured and fabulous. No complaints!

We had a great evening at Cadot! The food was amazing. Ramon our server was very attentive and personable. We had the opportunity to meet the Chef and that was very special. Overall Cadot was a perfect French dining experience!

We love the patio, the French waiters who never hesitate on their recommendations and are never wrong, and top notch service! Fabulous salad, soup, and memorable entrees, with nice wine selections. Never disappoints.

Everything we ordered was great. Service is always attentive. We were celebrating - this is a wonderful place to celebrate.

The food is great. The menu ranges from quite reasonable to expensive. The service is all one could ask for. You can actually hear your dinner companions speak.

Wonderful food; quiet, charming atmosphere. Elegant, professional service.

The menu at the restaurant is completely different to the one showing on line, to the extent of being unrecognizable. The explanation was dismissive & without apology.

Excellent French cuisine from a talented chef. Standards and unique twists on standards. Get the dessert soufflés, and you’ll remember your meal for the rest of your life

Cadot is a perfect anytime date night spot in North Dallas. The white cloth tables and simple elegant setup help set the mood. The staff is knowledgeable about all aspects of the menu, and are ready with suggestions if you are between dishes. Our table had sea bass, seafood risotto and flat iron steak, all were well prepared and excellent. Hight recommend the bibb lettuce salad as an pre dinner bite. Gran Marnier souffle and beignets topped off a perfect dinner experience. Will definitely go back.
