"Even the elevator ride up to the 49th-floor restaurant at Monarch feels celebratory. They hand you a glass of champagne and off you go towards jaw-dropping views of Dallas from a Downtown perch. Dinner at this Italian-American joint-that’s-also-a-steakhouse is large and luxurious, including a caviar service with potato chips and warm blinis. There are gigantic, butter-slathered steaks and Italian classics worth passing around the table, especially the fork-tender, crackly veal parmesan that usually comes out about as big as a birthday cake." - nick rallo
"Monarch is known as the spot for a pricey night out, but it also has stellar Downtown views from the floor-to-ceiling windows that run throughout the restaurant. The secret is getting a booth in the back dining room next to the windows, so you can have the killer views all to yourself — although the views in the bar area, if you just want to stop by for a drink, are pretty spectacular too. Monarch regulars love the spicy rigatoni, and the chef’s tasting menu, which made its debut early in 2025, is worth checking out at this Michelin-recommended restaurant." - Courtney E. Smith
"This see-and-be-seen stop Downtown boasts excellent views, endless hotspot vibes, and a chance to get all dressed up in one’s finest to show off. This is the spot to land a reservation when a showy dinner is the order of the night, be it for a date, work dinner, or celebratory occasion. There is a tasting menu for $175 per person that changes seasonally (with a wine pairing for an additional $125). The menu is made up of fine dining faves: filet mignon, veal chop, wood-grilled branzino, king salmon, whole Maine lobster spaghetti, oxtail cappelletti, fire-roasted lasagna Diane, and a host of reserve A5 wagyu and dry-aged steaks. There is paid parking underground." - Courtney E. Smith
"Monarch is a restaurant where one goes to see and be seen. It has a reputation that it leans into with caviar specials, dry-aged tomahawk steaks that top $200, and a tasting menu called the Royale. This is more aligned with what Michelin diners get in Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles — on the flashy end of the street. It’s at the top of a tony Downtown hotel, so dinner includes fantastic city views. Don’t let them push you into sitting in the noisy front room here — the back room in a booth with a window view is where it’s at." - Courtney E. Smith
"Holiday dishes abound on the holiday menu an Monarch. It is open for regular service and merriment that evening. Try out the pork belly porchetta with creamy fennel salad and red currant mustard, chestnut angolotti with brandied chestnuts, and for dessert its serving a dish called the Grinch. Make reservations online for dinner service between 4 to 9 p.m." - Courtney E. Smith
