This roundup of Dallas restaurant news has all of the exciting developments in Dallas dining that every roundup delivers: new menus, chef appointments, limited-edition dishes you must hurry to try before they disappear.

But this roundup is particularly heavy on openings, with nine restaurants that have made their debut or are in the works.

Here's everything that's happening in Dallas restaurant news:

Knife, the steakhouse by Chef John Tesar located at The Highland hotel, is reopening for lunch, but with a new dual personality: During the daytime, it'll operate as Knife Burger, Tesar's burger spinoff, serving burgers and salads, Tuesdays-Sundays 11:30 am–2 pm. That means The Ozersky with American cheese and red onion, arguably his best burger; The Magic with cheddar cheese and bacon on an English muffin; Pimento Cheese burger; Beef Cheek with truffle mayo; and The Rib with short rib, collard greens, and horseradish mayo. New options include Patty Melt, lobster roll, and the 44 Farms Hot Dog with cheese, sauerkraut, onion, jalapenos, and optional chili. There'll still be a couple steaks such as filet, steak au poivre, and bone-in rib eye, and they've brought back salads including yay the watercress, plus wedge and Caesar.

Roots Market and Juicery opened a new location at 4164 N. Central Expy., at the corner of Fitzhugh Avenue. Roots was founded by ex-stockbroker Brent Rodgers, and has a location in Lakewood at 1906 Abrams Pkwy., as well as a location in Atlanta. They've expanded their offerings beyond their original menu of pressed juices and smoothies, now stocking CBD products, ready-to-eat vegan meals, produce, clean wines, and more, in the Fitzhugh market and online.

Gloria's Latin Cuisine, the Salvadoran/Tex-Mex chain, has opened a new location in Prosper, at 1110 S. Preston Rd., #10, in the Gates of Prosper. Gloria's was conceived by Gloria and Jose Fuentes and borne out of the traditions of El Salvador. This is their 23rd location — they're in Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, Houston, and San Antonio, all the cities where CultureMap has a bureau, hey now — and features Salvadoran-inspired art, outdoor patio, upscale bar, margaritas, and their famous Black Bean Dip.

Texas Pho House opened at 9144 Presmont Pl. #200, Frisco across the street from a center with Ranch Market and Daiso, serving pho, stews, noodle soups, banh mi, salads, and appetizers.

The Garland location is a franchise, but with most of the same dishes including burgers, chicken sandwiches, chili cheese dogs, Frito pie, tater tots, and cheddar spiral fries, and then some, including po'boys and a 3-piece fish fry.

Wu Wei Din, the Chinese restaurant at 2909 W. 15th St., Plano, has opened a new location at at 2505 S. Stemmons Fwy., in Lewisville, in the former TGI Friday's next to Costco. Their specialties include beef noodle soup, pork chop fried rice, and soup dumplings.
