"Meals at Crown Block begin with a 68-second elevator ride up Reunion Tower that leads to one of the best views in the city. The set-price brunch is $80 per person even before drinks, but that nets you unlimited access to the buffet, including fresh sushi, a smoked salmon and bagel bar, and a carving station doling out sliced ham and prime beef. It also includes an entree from the kitchen, but we’re usually too focused on the self-serve situation to care. Dining here is a quintessential Dallas experience, so bring some out-of-towners or your visiting parents—especially if they’re paying." - Kevin Gray
