French Room

Dallas


With glittering chandeliers and drop-dead opulence, this is one of the top-rated hotel restaurants in the country. Gilt-tinged arches, marble columns and ornately painted ceilings set the scene for the classical French twist on modern American cuisine. Lavishly restored in 2017, the restaurant looks to again be a special event destination.
