Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Dallas-Ft. Worth (DFW) Corridor

High quality, upscale Italian food. Good food, great service. Should be on everyone's A-List in Dallas. Sam

We eat here two to three times a year. Last night was probably the best food we’ve had in the last five years. The bottle of Moet was great. Opening the evening was a plate of four pastries (gougyure?) filled with salmon mousse and caviar. We followed with a Farmer’s Green Salad. My wife had catch of the day. Me? Fried quail. There was not a hiccup with any of these entrees - all were excellent. The desserts - chocolate mousse and an apple tart with ice cream The chef’s gift to the table was a pumpkin soup with coconut milk. I wished that they would make this a regular menu item. One slight flaw. The recipe for the famous Dean Fearing tortilla soup seems to have changed. All in all - an excellent evening. IF. If I could change one thing? Hire a carpenter. Put in a vestibule ahead of the outside entry door. it was cold outside last night, and the drafts that passed through the restaurant are quite cold. All in all - the $$ were well spent.

Latifa was our server. She was excellent. Kind, courteous and efficient. A total professional. Eggs Benedict and Spicy Chicken and Waffles were delicious.

What a great first experience. Our waitress was outstanding and our meal was perfection. Highly recommend.

I love dining at this hidden gem. The food is wonderful and the menu selections are inspired by local ingredients. I only dine here once a month, but the staff remembers me and treats me like I’m the most important person in the room. Many people believe that hotel restaurants are not wonderful, but they truly are the best I’ve ever experienced.
