You should get there. \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>Harwood Hospitality Group<\/p>\n<p>Two Dallas restaurants have landed on <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.opentable.com\/blog\/press\/page\/hotel-restaurants-2026\/\">OpenTable\u2019s Top 100 Hotel Restaurants<\/a> in America for 2026 list. It\u2019s not a huge surprise; we already liked both of these, although you might be surprised to hear one is attached to a hotel. The other is Michelin-recommended, so of course.  <\/p>\n<p>OpenTable sifts through more than 10 million online hotel and restaurant reviews, ranking data points such as diner ratings and five-star reviews to compile the list. Most diners (92%) don\u2019t even stay at the hotels on restaurant visits; so don\u2019t feel obligated to book a room, although how nice would that be? <\/p>\n<p>The heart of Dallas<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasobserver.com\/location\/sister-12596564\/\">Sister<\/a> is a Greenville Avenue hotspot from the much-lauded Duro Hospitality Group (The Charles, El Carlos Elegante, Mister Charles and newly opened <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasobserver.com\/food-drink\/scilla-dallas-chas-martin-40695800\/\">Scilla<\/a>). Sister is where longtime favorite Grape used to be and has taken its place nicely as a neighborhood favorite. The vibe is casual. The menu draws people in with its inventive Italian-Mediterranean dishes like grilled prawns with ozro, pomegranate, sumac yogurt and Marcona almonds. There\u2019s also Moroccan spiced chicken. Every table should have a plate of the focaccia with a chili olive tapenade. <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.casa-duro.com\/\">Casa Duro<\/a> is a three-room boutique hotel above the restaurant that has earned a Michelin Key (an equivalent to a star) for 2024 and 2025. <\/p>\n<p>Sign up for the Food &amp; Drink newsletter to get the latest stories delivered to your inbox<\/p>\n<p>THANK YOU!<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;re all set.<\/p>\n<p>CLOSE\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>The Harwood District<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasobserver.com\/best-of-dallas\/2025\/food-and-drink\/best-steakhouse-23281632\/\">Stillwell\u2019s<\/a> also landed on OpenTable\u2019s list. This Michelin-recommended restaurant is at the Hotel Swexan in Dallas\u2019 Harwood District. We appreciate Stillwell\u2019s beef program; the parent company, Harwood Hospitality, partners with local ranches in Texas and Oklahoma that raise Akaushi cattle. The best culmination of this is Stillwell\u2019s tasting menu, which, through the end of July, is aptly named \u201cDining Like the Duttons Tasting Menu.\u201d For just $115, get a multi-course prime cut experience. You should probably just get a room after. <\/p>\n<p>Cowtown<\/p>\n<p>Outside of Big D proper, Hotel Drover\u2019s <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/97westkitchenandbar.com\/\">97 West Kitchen and Bar<\/a> in Fort Worth is on the list. Smack dab in the Stockyards, this spot elevates traditional Texas fare; take the chicken-fried New York strip steak served with mashed potatoes and smoked sausage gravy. The chicken-fried oyster comes with chipotle butter and a pickled mango pico cumin crema. Yeah, we\u2019re having a hard time imagining that also. If you\u2019re looking for a true gritty-cowboy-hat Texas experience, this spot is your Huckleberry. <\/p>\n<p>Golfing in Frisco<\/p>\n<p>Trick Rider, which <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasobserver.com\/food-drink\/trick-rider-in-frisco-reboots-as-luxe-steakhouse-40685753\/\">we recently revisited<\/a> at the Omni PGA Frisco Resort and Spa, rounds out the list for North Texas. The restaurant recently rebranded as a steakhouse. We hear the bar is a great spot to pick up a Sugar Daddy. Anyhoosie, Trick Rider is sourcing beef from Linz Heritage Angus, an Oklahoma-based heritage rancher. The seafood arrives fresh from Japan\u2019s Hokkaido markets. Produce comes from Damascus Farm in Floyd, Texas, where roughly 20 acres are dedicated to Trick Rider.<\/p>\n<p>Writer Gutierrez continued about her meal there \u2026 <\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrick Rider\u2019s revamp is delightfully deceitful. Take the Wagyu Beef Tartare. Tartare is one of those foods that\u2019s often more performative than pleasurable. Do you really like it? Debatable. [Chef John] Shaw\u2019s version ups the ante for a tartare to remember. The minced raw eye of the ribeye is contrasted with cracklin\u2019: ground tomahawk that\u2019s rendered, aged 45 days, and then rendered once again. It\u2019s layered with violet mustard, capers, shallots, orange oil, garlic pickled mustard seeds, and a dash of Thai chili for heat that takes the dish to the next level.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Been to Stillwell&#8217;s at the Swexan?
