Fond

The 38 Best Restaurants in Dallas | Eater Dallas

"When looking for lunch near Downtown, it’s hard to beat Fond. Its Tower Club is a five-star sandwich with roast turkey, cheddar, Swiss, tomato, and the centerpiece ingredient: pork belly. It also offers a daily soft serve, swirled into a ceramic version of the classic Greek coffee cups made famous by New York City bodegas, that gets drizzled with quality olive oil. Diners who want to indulge in a glass of $7 lunch wine can choose from a few options from the restaurant’s natural wine selection. Fond also does a mean aperitivo service, its version of happy hour, from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. during the week and until 9 p.m. on Fridays. If you drive: The restaurant validates parking in the Santander Tower, where it is located, but the entrance to the parking garage on Pacific Avenue can be challenging to find." - Courtney E. Smith
