Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Michelle Carpenter

From the OpenTable editors: The James Beard Awards, Eater Dallas, and D Magazine have all showered praise on chef Michelle Carpenter's Cajun/Creole charmer in Oak Cliff. Carpenter cut her teeth in New Orleans, and that influence shines in everything from statement fleur-de-lys wallpaper to elegant dishes like shrimp and grits and vegan gumbo.


Philosophy

Our mission is "Bienvenue to All!" Our restaurant celebrates the hospitality and gastronomy of authentic, scratch-made Louisiana and Southern foods with a focus on environmental stewardship and our immediate community. Our menu represents the integrity and connections between our chef, our farmers, and ranchers. From mustard to sausage to biscuits, nearly every item is made in-house.

    Creative cuisine and a very good value. One waiter handled the whole room with finesse. Ask about portion sizes so you don’t over-order.

    Good service and interesting menu makes this a place to check out. We did lunch and it was a tad bit expensive. Egg rolls were great and the eggs Benedict were solid. Catfish and gumbo were ok.

    I've never loved gumbo, and the gumbo was so delicious I want to eat it every day! Amazing fried green tomatoes. The shrimp and grits were wonderful and so was the bread pudding. Service was great too! I went there for my birthday and had a lovely dinner.

    We went to Restaurant Beatrice for their special Cochon du Lait dinner last night. As always at a restaurant run by Michelle Carpenter everything was exquisite. The food and drinks were exceptional and the ambiance was excellent! We will come back again and again to Restaurant Beatrice as well as Michelle's other restaurant - Zen Sushi. If you have been do yourself a favor and give these places a try - you won't be sorry!

    Excellent food & cocktails. The jelly jar glasses for water bugged me as it took the ambience down but it didn’t seem to bother my dining companions. I think the restaurant is worthy of something a bit more elegant but what do I know? I still dress up for an evening out.
