Description:
DOWNTOWN. Although this revolving restaurant offers outstanding views from its 50th story perch atop Reunion Tower, what truly sets it apart is its knack for delivering outstanding New American dishes. Indeed, it's not uncommon for Southwestern ingredients like epazote, serranos, red chiles, and poblanos to find their way into main course fare. Whether based around chicken, lamb, or seafood, dishes reveal equally creative preparations. Reservations are strongly encouraged for Sunday's champagne brunch. |

Other options include blue crab and shrimp enchiladas, a mixed seafood grill, and slow-roasted, glazed chicken with grilled asparagus. Another of the restaurant's claims to fame is its tequila selection – over 100 premium options await. Don't forget the fabulous Sunday brunch either! |

Description:
NORTHWEST DALLAS. A pale graceful dining room, touched with dark accents and clean-lined furnishings, sets guests at ease in this resort dining room. The menu boasts an American sensibility, enlivened with Continental touches. An intriguing soup that unites the flavors of parsnips and truffles is an unusual dish that leads beautifully into Chilean sea bass with hazelnuts and squid ink vinaigrette or whole roast squab with apricot glaze. Other options include Australian lamb chops with mint pesto, grilled scallops with coconut-habanero hush puppies, and beef tenderloin with blue cheese spoon bread. Steaks and pastas are also available. A wonderful wine list adds to the experience, while prix fixe menus and breakfast and lunch buffets further increase dining options. |

OAK LAWN. Home of the famous Green Bellybutton margarita, this Dallas favorite serves authentic Mexican dishes with a Texas twist. The attractive, candle-lit dining area will make you feel as if you're on the hacienda – stucco walls, hand-painted murals, high ceilings, leather furniture, white tablecloths, and colorful accessories abound. The menu is a veritable "who's who" of spicy flavor, from taqueria-style tacos and duck-filled flautas to veal short ribs in red mole sauce and roasted poblano chilis stuffed with pork barbecue. A perfect complement to any such feast is a pitcher of sangria or a signature watermelon margarita. |
