Thanksgiving Dining Worth the Drive (and the Stretchy Pants)

While some dream of perfectly golden turkeys and Pinterest-worthy table settings, others dream of skipping the dishes entirely. Enter the DFW Thanksgiving dining scene where chefs handle the chaos, and you simply hold the champagne flute.

Feast Without the Fuss

From Hotel Vin’s Bacchus Kitchen + Bar in Grapevine (with its champagne-carved turkey and Texas truffle mac and cheese) to Del Frisco’s Grille in Southlake serving a steakhouse-style Thanksgiving dinner, Dallas-Fort Worth offers indulgence in every zip code. Over in Fort Worth, Reata Restaurant transforms its rooftop into a Western-elegant feast complete with jalapeño dressing and skyline views that rival any Macy’s parade float.

Local Luxury Dining Highlights

• The Capital Grille (Plano & Fort Worth): Dry-aged steak meets cornbread stuffing—classic with a luxury twist.
  
• Grace (Fort Worth): Chef Blaine Staniford’s Thanksgiving tasting menu makes “leftovers” a foreign concept.
  
• Perry’s Steakhouse (Grapevine): Caramelized sweet potatoes and a smoked turkey that could convert any brisket lover.
  
• The Mansion Restaurant (Dallas): Because sometimes your holiday deserves a side of history and champagne.
  

Beyond Pumpkin Pie

Need dessert to go? Emporium Pies in Southlake and Main Street Bakery in Grapevine offer pecan-bourbon pies that redefine the meaning of “thankful.” For those who prefer liquid dessert, try Mi Dia from Scratch’s Pumpkin Margarita because gratitude tastes better with a cinnamon rim.

Whether your plans include carving, traveling, or toasting, may your season overflow with gratitude, laughter, and connection. After all, Luxury with Heart isn’t just our mission, it’s our way of life.
