Housed in what was once the home of a cotton magnate, The Mansion Restaurant has been a Dallas icon for more than 30 years. But it’s not known just for its rich history, the luxury restaurant is also admired for fabulous French-influenced cuisine. As a mainstay in this part of town, The Mansion Restaurant showcases both architecture and cuisine at its finest.
Recently, the lauded venue received a facelift that made the classic Dallas dining room a hot spot once again. Now a juxtaposition of contemporary furnishings and classic architecture, the restaurant’s honey-colored walls and lithe dark wood tables provide a warm atmosphere to savor executive chef Sebastien Archambault's creative cuisine.
Start with Texas beef tartar or roasted beet salad with dried cherry vinaigrette, followed by a main course of Maine lobster and sweet potato ravioli or wagyu ribeye with bourbon succotash, pickled mustard and salsa verde.
