Flamant, KidMania and Firebirds Wood Fired Grill have closed. Flower Child is opening a second location, and Angel Touch Kitchen has a brick-and-mortar.
Plano’s dining and entertainment scene is changing, with new restaurants opening and longtime businesses closing. Here’s what’s new around town.
Opening:
Flower Child’s second Plano location
Fast-casual restaurant Flower Child plans to open its second Plano location at The Shops at Legacy East in mid-2027.
The health-focused menu features customizable bowls, salads, wraps and entrees with a choice of protein and sides.
The new location will be at 5700 Legacy Drive, Suite A1.
After a decade of pop-ups, catering and food truck operations, halal Indonesian restaurant Angel Touch Kitchen opened Oct. 22 at 280 Legacy Drive, Suite 300.
Owner Yenni Haryanti’s menu features slow-cooked beef rendang, fried rice, stir-fried noodles and chicken skewers.
The restaurant’s soft opening was scheduled to run through Oct. 25, featuring a limited menu of Indonesian specialties.
Closing:
Firebirds Wood Fired Grill
Firebirds Wood Fired Grill has closed its Plano location after nearly three years.
The restaurant, known for its hand-cut steaks, seafood and specialty cocktails, closed after accepting an offer to transfer its lease, Community Impact reported.
Firebirds continues to operate locations in Grapevine and Fort Worth’s Alliance area, where customers can still redeem gift cards.
Flamant
Flamant, a European-inspired live-fire restaurant and cocktail bar, closed in mid-October after 16 months at the Boardwalk at Granite Park, the Dallas Observer reported last week.
Another operator offered to take over the space, Owner Tanner Agar told CultureMap, though details about the incoming concept have not been announced.
Agar and executive chef Taylor Rause opened Flamant in June 2025, drawing inspiration from the cuisines of Portugal, Spain, France and Italy. The pair also operated Rye, which earned recognition in the 2024 Michelin Guide Texas.
Flamant was located at 5880 State Highway 121, Suite 103B.
KidMania
Indoor playground KidMania closed its Plano location in September after 13 years, consolidating operations at its remaining Fort Worth location.
Indoor playground concept RC World has announced they are taking over the space, with an estimated renovation completion in spring 2027.
