Since 1949, Dallas’s first home of haute French-continental cuisine has been the destination for high rollers and those who want to entertain lavishly in a setting seemingly staged by 1940s Hollywood. Strolling violinists, crystal chandeliers, baroque frames on paintings, and formal service pamper, while a menu of lobster crepes, steak tartare, sweetbreads with chestnuts, and chateaubriand fulfill yearnings for fine foods of another time.
