Bubbling, thin crust pizzas, mini burgers, crisp salads, and craft cocktails...four great reasons to visit matchbox today. We’re the neighborhood gathering place for fun, upscale casual dining, with local, award-winning beers, broad spectrum wines, and handcrafted signature cocktails you won’t find anywhere else.

At the corner of Walnut Hill and Central Expressway in vibrant Preston Hollow Village is our dining oasis with a wraparound patio. A fireplace at the front entry is just a taste of the crackling fires that power our pizza ovens. Take a seat at the pizza bar, and watch hot, bubbling pies make their debut.

The private Barrel Room, named for its vaulted ceiling that resembles barrel rings, accommodates 30 guests with comfortable seating, a wood-burning fireplace and plenty of space for large parties and get-togethers.

    Too noisy to visit with friends easily. Good menu, good salad. Noise level would make me reluctant if I wanted to have conversation with friends without having to repeat ourselves constantly.. Must work for them or I guess it would change. Even a few decibels would help.

    The reservation process was fine. Service and food was disappointing. I ordered a medium rare steak without any dairy and they brought me a cold piece of meat that was well done and with potatoes that had cheese on them. The waiter was a Millenial with an attitude. I am not sure I will ever come back to this restaurant.

    Made reservations for Sunday brunch. Beautiful and 70° outside so I asked for a table outside. Was told that they were not seating outside however 15 minutes later every table outside was full not sure why we weren’t able to sit outside? Kind of disappointed because we picked this specific restaurant because we knew there was a nice patio and it was a beautiful day. Food was great just disappointed because we were meeting a group and wanted to sit outside.

    Nice and conveniently located off central expressway. The happy hour drink menu was not great for the price. Worst part was the parking. Arrived at 5:45, no available parking nearby, Frost Bank had Reserved parking all around the restaurant and they were closed. Was advised that police would ticket if I parked at the bank. Not feeling secure walking to a parking garage will probably not return to Matchmox if alone.

    Possibly the worst service I have ever received. Hostess did not speak a word to us when we walked in and gave our reservation. Waiter was not attentive at all - did not pick up dirty plates, did not come back for water refills, did not check about our food. All around horrible service. I was a waitress for YEARS and if I serviced a table like this I would have been fired on the spot

    On behalf of our restaurant, I would like to apologize for your visit. It is always our mission to give the best food and best service possible. In this case, it definitely sounds like we missed the mark. Thank you for your feedback. While it's never good to hear abour a bad experience. It does give us the opportunity for coaching, so we don't repeat the same mistakes again. Jason Faircloth GM Matchbox Preston Hollow

    Large table of 8 people next to us screaming at the top of their lungs. This happens a lot! Even our waiter was annoyed. Management needs to politely ask customers who are screaming to “tone it down”.

    Poorly trained staff - wait staff and receptionists. The bartender is too cool for his own good. There are too many good places with great food and solid service in North Dallas to put up with the attitude and overpriced product this establishment has. Go elsewhere. We won't be back...
