"The Mansion, whose kitchen has been run under chef Charles Olalia since 2024, has reworked its brunch menu into something much more exciting than you might remember. Now, it features crispy-skin salmon, chicken schnitzel, breakfast tacos, and plenty of egg dishes. For those who want to step outside of the usual, there’s also gnocchi with cavalo nero pesto and savory chili-brioche crumble. As always, the Mansion offers free valet, just pull up outside and hand over the keys." - Courtney E. Smith
"Chef Charles Olalia moved to Dallas from Los Angeles, and he has been quietly putting his mark on the Mansion’s restaurant for about a year. At this point, his discovery tasting menu is a highlight with decadent dishes at $175 per person, with an option wine paring for an additional $110 per person. A recent visit saw foie gras with a housemade seasonal berry jam along with other single-bite items on a tiered tray, his crispy salt and pepper quail, and a remarkable cut of steak. There is also a vegetarian tasting menu, which is $145 per person and an option $80 wine pairing. The Mansion is the same as it ever was, with its beige dining room somehow being the least interesting place to eat, certainly compared to the library or indoor patio. But the whole place is getting more interesting, thanks to its latest chef." - Courtney E. Smith
"Been a minute since you’ve been to the Mansion for breakfast? Its executive chef, Charles Olalia, has been making some changes. The food menu is a little less Tex-Mex and more classic breakfast these days, and the tea list looks like a wine menu. The stunning pastries remain. As it starts to warm up, take breakfast on the patio (with or without a fire going); the restaurant also offers free valet parking." - Courtney E. Smith
"One of the classiest spots to eat in Dallas is offering a prix fixe menu for the holiday. Decadent highlights include black truffle gougeres, lobster cappucino, big-eye tuna tartare, black truffle agnolotti, Alaskan halibut, and Texas wagyu beef with Japanese eggplant. Caviar and truffle enhancements are available with select courses, as is a wine pairing. The cost is $225 per person for adults, $75 per child from four to 12, complimentary for kids under four, and an additional $160 for the classic wine paring or $195 for the elite wine pairing. See the full menu online and make reservations." - Courtney E. Smith
"A Dallas fine-dining destination that sources the California producer’s caviar for its menu." - ByBecky Duffett
