Waterproof 1914 Commerce Street, Dallas, TX 75201

"If you're a fan of Espresso Martinis, the one served at the Waterproof in Dallas might leave you sorely disappointed. Instead of the rich, bold coffee flavor you'd expect, this cocktail was a lukewarm blend that lacked depth and balance. The espresso flavor was muted, and the overall drink was overly sweet, masking any complexity. The presentation was lackluster, with a thin layer of froth that quickly dissipated. For a city known for its vibrant cocktail scene, this Espresso Martini missed the mark, failing to deliver the robust and invigorating experience that defines the classic drink."

"We went on a Monday so it would be more chill and it totally was. Sam the bartender was so nice and so were Ernesto and Ari. I’m sure it gets busier and since it’s a small pool I would absolutely recommend going on slower days or earlier in the day while the sun is still peak. Had a great time for my birthday 10/10"

"This is a really cool bar to hang out at during the day. What better way to stay cool in the summer heat than in a rooftop pool with a drink in hand. The food and drinks are great but there is very little free seating. Any seat with a table has some kind of minimum purchase, although you’ll probably meet that minimum just after your first drink (roughly $25/seat). While the lounge chairs are free with no minimum, there are only a few and even with the small amount of people when we were there, they were all taken. Most of them were taken by people in the pool that didn’t use them in the two hours we were there. I’d say if you don’t want a minimum charge for your seat be prepared to spend all of your time at the bar or in the pool. The servers definitely focused on those that payed a cover charge and rarely checked in with the rest of us. They were helpful when they checked in though. The bartenders are good and friendly as well. During the day the atmosphere was great and relaxing. I’d expect a much crazier vibe in the evening though as they have DJs and advertised parties regularly. Also, the pizza was amazing, highly recommend the BBQ chicken! If you’re looking for a relaxing pool with a bar during the day this is a great choice!"

"Beautiful Views! Recommend for a nice outing in Dallas! The decor, rooftop, music and overall atmosphere makes it worth visiting ✨️"

"The Negatives: the wait staff at Waterproof can be a bit slow, which occasionally led to delays in getting our drinks. Another aspect to consider is the pricing of the drinks. They tend to be on the higher end, which might not suit everyone's budget. One thing that struck me was the size of the cabanas. They were indeed smaller than expected, so if you're looking for ample space to relax with a larger group, you might need to adjust your expectations. The Positives: the views of downtown Dallas are truly stunning. Whether you're gazing at the skyline during the day or admiring the city lights at night, the panoramic vistas create a captivating backdrop for your afternoon getaway. I thoroughly enjoyed the music and vibe at Waterproof. If you're seeking a spot with a vibrant atmosphere, good music, and nice views, Waterproof is definitely worth a visit."
