Celebration: A Delightful Southern American Dining Experience

Absolutely phenomenal experience at Celebration! The farm-to-table Southern cuisine is delicious with generous portions and very reasonably priced. I understand they have family- style sides for dinner too. The atmosphere is relaxed, cozy and the restaurant’s history is truly intriguing. Our server Tiffany was exceptional! She was attentive, knowledgeable, kind and incredibly service-oriented. I came for lunch with a close friend and began to order the Walnut Crusted Chicken Salad, but instead started with the Chicken Tortilla soup, then the Chicken Fried Chicken with traditional gravy, broccoli and fresh roasted beets with fresh thyme and everything was outstanding. Lunch entrées come with a homemade basket of breads and three sides, which is such a nice touch. Add in a full service bar, beautiful patio and the fact that they support local producers, makes this place a gem. I enjoyed it so much that I’ll definitely be returning again and again to experience all that Celebration has to offer!

Went in for lunch, and group of nine. Service was the best of any place I have ever been. A small quiet place with lots of charm. The staff handled our orders well and properly split the bills without difficulty. They are in an old cottage with several rooms. Food is American home cooking with small twists like sauces and special spices. Quite good. High quality food, good presentation. Reservations might be a good idea for larger groups.

Celebration has hosted many a family dinner for four generations in our family over the years, most recently for a weeknight dinner with me and my parents. Our server Jackson was attentive, knowledgeable, and just a generally pleasant person. The iced tea was very fresh and my glass was never less than half full, with more ice added on every refill. All of the breads are delicious, my mom prefers the jalapeno cornbread, my favorite are the blueberry muffins, and my dad prefers the more traditional white bread biscuit/rolls. It’s nice that we can each get more of what we want! My dad and I ordered from the daily specials menu, the pork chop with cherry mostarda and southwest chicken. My husband ordered the pot roast and my mom the chicken fried steak. We ordered spinach, fried okra, and mashed potatoes for our sides. The sides are served family style, but you can have seconds on these, and even change sides if you like. We were too full, as this was plenty of food for the four of us on the first course! The atmosphere is charming with remnants of nostalgia in the pictures and wall hangings, and the little enclaves, or smaller dining rooms, really make it feel like you’re eating dinner at home, just out with other people. We’ll be back for sure, thank you for your consistent service and delicious locally sourced menu!

I had never eaten here before however it was recommended by a client we were taking to lunch; WOW, I’m certainly glad we went. I really appreciated the home style atmosphere and the food was amazing. Our waitress was very friendly and took time to explain several dishes we had questions about. I’ve added this to my list of restaurants for visiting family. I highly recommend Celebration!

Highly recommend! Love, love, love the separate rooms! Made it feel very intimate/cozy. We tried their tortilla soup (very delicious), pear salad (not a fan of blue cheese), garden salad (their croutons are yummy!) chicken fried chicken (tender chicken with a yummy crispy batter), chicken fried steak (very good), trout (a little too buttery for me), red fish (delicious), mashed potatoes (like any other restaurant mash), macaroni and cheese (bland, needs more cheese/seasoning), vegetable medley (good), berry cobbler (good), coconut cream pie (if you are a coconut lover like me, you’ll love this) and banana pudding (it was a no for me). Will definitely return!

Everything was fantastic! We will absolutely be coming back next time we are in Dallas. Every part of the meal from the breads and salad, soup, pick 3 veggies and entrees, to the desserts were so tasty. Portions were great, and prices very fair, especially for the area. I really appreciated that the hostess took my husband and I to a smaller room to dine, making for a more quiet and intimate experience next to other couples/duos. The seating in my side (booth) was comfortable and a good table height. Sounds like a weird observation, but if you've ever sat in a booth where the table was too tall, you know it feels like you're a toddler eating at the grown ups table. So this was a great improvement versus many many restaurants we've been to. The owners happened to come by testing out some chairs while we were dining, and graciously gave us 2 desserts free of charge. Coconut cream pie, and banana pudding. They made sure our meal was up to par as well. The two seemed like very nice people that really care for their business and customers. Overall, extremely pleased with our first time there. No complaints at all.

Loved the food and service. We were in the private room for a birthday party. I had the St. Caroline Grilled chicken, mashed potatoes, fried okra, and a house salad.

Dinner with my little fam. Celebration is heavy on the rotation. Excellent service, great food, good specials!
