About Wicked Butcher Dallas
Wicked Butcher Dallas is a Dallas venue with evening hours most days it is open, plus 11 AM openings Tuesday through Friday. The schedule is Monday 5–10 PM, Tuesday through Thursday 11 AM–10 PM, Friday 11 AM–12 AM, Saturday 5 PM–12 AM, Sunday closed. That pattern makes the venue most straightforward to consider for evening plans across the workweek, with earlier daytime timing possible Tuesday through Friday.
Plan around the basics: Dallas location, smart casual dress code, the posted hours. In practice, that means treating the listing as a scheduling and fit check first, then confirming the finer points directly before committing a group. For another option to compare, consider Wild Salsa, Partenope Ristorante, Namak Indian Cuisine, Porta Di Roma, or Toussaint Brasserie.
Book it for a Dallas visit with evening hours
Wicked Butcher Dallas is easiest to evaluate by timing. It is open in the evening Monday through Saturday, with later closing times on Friday and Saturday. Tuesday through Friday also begin at 11 AM, while Saturday service begins at 5 PM and Sunday is closed. Those details are useful if the priority is simply finding a Dallas venue that can work for an evening plan, a weekday daytime visit, or a later end to the night on Friday or Saturday.
Do not build the plan around a specific cuisine, chef counter, tasting progression, signature dish, bar seat, or price point unless you confirm those details directly before visiting. The dress code is smart casual, so plan attire accordingly. That dress-code note is a useful style signal: it can guide what to wear, but is not enough on its own to assume the room, pacing, or level of formality beyond the stated requirement.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Wicked Butcher presents a contemporary take on the classic Dallas steakhouse, leaning into a butchery-forward identity rather than white-tablecloth tradition. The copy emphasizes the room as part of the culinary pitch — lighting, materials, sound levels and table spacing all shape the mood — so the atmosphere reads as thoughtfully designed and modern. Located on Main Street in the downtown dining corridor, the restaurant balances civic steakhouse heft with a curated, design-conscious presentation. It feels intentional rather than utilitarian: a steakhouse that makes sourcing, butchery and the dining environment equally central to the evening.
Best For
This is primarily an evening destination: the write-up frames Wicked Butcher in terms of what kind of night you are buying, placing it squarely in the dinner, date-night and special-occasion lane. Its central Main Street address — walkable from major downtown hotels and embedded in a busy dining block — also makes it a reliable option for business dinners and visiting executives seeking a locally rooted steakhouse experience. The combination of serious beef-focused cooking and a composed, design-forward room suits elevated social and professional evenings where the meal itself is the main event.
Ordering Tips
Steak is the conversation here, so prioritize the signature cuts when you sit down: the Hokkaido A5 Wagyu and the Dry Aged Strip are explicitly listed as highlights and exemplify the restaurant’s carnivore-first stance. The menu also includes non-steak signatures such as Green Curry Salmon and Lobster Bucatini, which offer alternatives for diners who want seafood or pasta alongside the beef-heavy offerings. Given the emphasis on sourcing and preparation, ask your server about the cuts and ages available that night to pick something that matches your preference for richness and texture.

Restaurant context
How Wicked Butcher Dallas compares in Dallas
Wicked Butcher Dallas is the downtown generalist in this set: useful when the group wants a central dinner and does not want to commit to a specific cuisine lane. Wild Salsa is the clearer choice for a Mexican brief, while Namak Indian Cuisine is the better fit when Indian food is the reason for booking.
For ambiance, cross-shop Toussaint Brasserie if a brasserie-style room is the goal. If value for money means choosing the cuisine first and reducing decision risk, Partenope Ristorante and Porta Di Roma are stronger Italian-led alternatives. Wicked Butcher Dallas works better when the downtown address and dinner setting matter more than a tightly defined food category.
Booking difficulty is listed as easy, so this is the safer option for a lower-friction plan. For a special meal with a more specific identity, choose the peer that matches the craving; for a central Dallas fallback with a polished dinner feel, stay here.
