The Grape

Best Mushroom Recipes to Cook for Fall: NYT Cooking, Smitten Kitchen, and More - Eater

"When I first moved to town, the Grape had been a Dallas dining icon for nearly 50 years. It was one of the first “fancy” restaurants I ever visited. Unfortunately, it closed in 2019, but my memories of the cozy neighborhood French bistro are eternally fond, and its iconic cream of mushroom soup recipe lives on in my kitchen. I have since adjusted the recipe’s quantities and proportions to suit my own tastes and limited freezer space, but this is a soup worthy of making a giant batch. It’s exquisitely creamy, full of rich mushroom flavor, and perfect for dunking crackers or batons of bread into on a chilly fall day." - Kat Thompson

13 Excellent Date Night Destinations In Dallas

"Dimly lit and perfectly cozy, The Grape is an iconic Dallas bistro that still delivers the perfect date night dining experience after 45 years in business. The dinner menu is diverse with classic offerings like steak frites and “Coal Miner’s Pasta,” a house favorite." - Lauren Coe

"If it’s your first time at this Greenville Avenue institution, we suggest you order the burger. They make only ten a day, and they sell out. Pair it with a glass of dry champagne. Yes, really. We also love the mushroom soup, and we really love Sunday brunch (you’ll need a reservation). At night, the Grape turns into a romantic date spot with a fantastic wine list. "
