Summer is all around us, summer is everywhere in Dallas, with seasonal menus popping up all over town. There are also a couple of big openings in this very upbeat edition of Dallas restaurant news.

Here's what's happening in dining:

Hatchways Café is a newly opened restaurant in Victory Park at 2346 Victory Park Ln., doing quick-serve breakfast, lunch, snacks, and grab-and-go from 7 am to 7 pm daily. The menu emphasizes whole grains, fruits, and vegetables; a wariness of refined sugar and refined flour; and a vegan-and-vegetarian-welcoming, gluten-friendly, allergy-conscious outlook. The menu includes gluten-free scones, seeded brown-butter blueberry muffins, dark-chocolate rye brownies, sea-salt chocolate chip cookies, toasts, a breakfast burrito, egg sandwich with turkey sausage, a brown rice bowl, vegan summer salad sandwich, pressed chicken “Cuban," rainbow tuna poke, Chinese chicken crunch salad, and chimichurri steak salad. All menu items can be ordered online and delivered to users in the Hatchways Workspace, including as catering to reservable meeting spaces.

Sundown at Granada, the restaurant adjacent to the Granada Theater on Greenville Avenue, has a new chef team, and thus a new menu with items such as turkey meatloaf, elote risotto, and goat cheese gnocchi. Sundown owners Mike Schoder and Julia Garton hired Marcus Kopplin, who will serve as the restaurant's new executive chef, replacing Jason West, who moved to Portland. Joining Kopplin as a consulting chef will be Justin Box, and the team will continue Sundown's mantra of great-tasting food that's local, seasonal, and farm-driven whenever possible. Kopplin most recently worked at Piatello Italian Kitchen, but has also worked at Shinjuku Station in Fort Worth, The Chef’s Table in Provo, Utah, and Juliet Classic Italian in Austin. Box has worked at a number of restaurants including Cafe Momentum and the Cedars Social.

OMG Tacos celebrates its grand opening at Richardson Restaurant Park on Saturday, June 29. The address is 744 S. Central Expwy. off 75 between Belt Line and Spring Valley Road, in the former Tacqui space.

Circo Dallas, a spinoff of a famed New York restaurant, has closed. A spokesman from the company that licensed the Circo brand to Dallas operator Lauren Santagati told the Dallas Morning News that the restaurant might reopen in that location or elsewhere in Dallas, possibly without Santagati. Circo opened in September 2018 atop the One Uptown building, where it had a second-floor pool area with cabanas and bars.
