    New food and liquor items offer tiny rays of hope in Dallas restaurant news

    Cool new noodles at Asian Mint.

    The coronavirus may be wiping out half of the food & beverage industry, but there's still another half trying to make it work in the Dallas restaurant world.

    This roundup includes openings, closures, new menus, new noodles, and new booze. Lots of new booze.

    Here's what's happening in Dallas dining news:

    The Hall Bar & Grill, a casual steakhouse at Trinity Groves, closed on August 1. The restaurant posted a big farewell card on the restaurant's Facebook page, thanking customers for their support. Chef-owner James Rose will do catering jobs. Founding partner Bob Sambol, who hasn't been affiliated with the restaurant for more than a year, blamed the coronavirus for the closure.

    True Kitchen + Kocktails, the new restaurant-bar near the Majestic Theater in downtown Dallas, opens August 21. The menu is Southern comfort food with fried chicken & lobster tails, shrimp & grits, waffles, oxtails, greens, black eyed peas, candied yams, and desserts such as peach cobbler, lemon cake, and banana pudding. "Mind-blowing cocktails" will be presented in an over-the-top manner done with a flair unlike anything seen before at a comfort food restaurant, says a release. Owner Kevin Kelly, who acquired the historic Hart Building and the adjoining Club Medusa in 2017, was inspired by the desire to give Dallas a chance to enjoy dynamic dining experiences seen in major cities such as Paris, New York, and Los Angeles.

    Scooter's Coffee, known for its pre-coronavirus reliance on drive-thru, as well as its specialty coffee and pastries, added a new location in Garland, at 3414 Broadway Blvd. Based in Omaha, they have five other locations in the DFW area.

    Asian Mint has launched a limited-edition item: shirataki noodles. They're made using fiber from the root of a konjac plant which is native to East and Southeast Asia. They're said to absorb water easily, and make you feel full, yet have zero carbs. They're also good for gut health and control blood sugar and insulin levels. You can get them in five of Asian Mint's signature noodle dishes:

    • Pad See Ew – stir-fried noodles in black soy, broccoli, bok choy and egg
    • Asian Noodle Salad – noodles tossed with shrimp, chicken, julienned in-season rainbow vegetables, grape tomatoes, peanuts, mint, dressed with spicy lime sauce
    • Kua Kai – noodles mixed with chicken, eggs and scallions, served with romaine lettuce
    • Pad Kee Mow – Thai drunken noodles with eggs, tomato, romaine lettuce, red bell peppers, Thai basil and spicy Thai chili basil soy sauce
    • Pad Thai – stir-fried noodles with eggs, peanuts, bean sprouts, shrimp, tofu, chicken, and tamarind sauce

    For curbside pickup, order on www.asianmint.com.

    Golden Chick has reopened its Mesquite location at 4525 Gus Thomasson Rd with a spiffy new design. This location has been completely rebuilt and features copper ceiling tiles, four screen multimedia displays, and a new brown-tan-and-gold color scheme. The location is owned by franchisee Joseph Omobogie and is the second Golden Chick he's opened in 2020, with plans to open two more, in Mesquite and Allen, later this year. He completely leveled the original restaurant to build this new location. Golden Chicken president Jim Stevens says it's the perfect illustration of Golden Chick's commitment to excellence.

    Rodeo Goat Ice House has brought back its "Battle of the Burgers" competition showcasing Hatch chiles: "Hatch Me If You Can" features a 44 Farms beef patty with white cheddar Hatch chile queso, roasted Hatch chiles, tortilla strips, fried onions, and avocado ranch. Chupacabra has a beef and chorizo patty, roasted Hatch chiles, smoked lime aioli, queso asadero, jalapeño croutons, and guacamole. Each burger ordered is considered a vote, with the most popular selection moving on to the next round of burger battles. It runs through August 24.

    Mi Dia From Scratch has launched their seasonal, brand-new hatch green chile menu, which includes five items created by chef Gabriel DeLeon: Hatch queso, Hatch sliders, Hatch chicken tacos, pork carnitas Hatch enchiladas, and Hatch chile steak & relleno. The menu is available at all three Mi Dia From Scratch locations — Grapevine, Plano, and Flower Mound — for a limited time; Hatch chile season starts at the beginning of August and typically lasts through the end of September, depending on weather.

    Steak 'n Shake has brought back drive-in service as a way to help further social distant dining. Parking spaces are designated by signage evoking a 45 RPM record. You use the Steak 'n Shake app to place your order, select "Car Hop," and enter your vehicle details. A server will deliver a tray and attach it to the car window. You can eat in the car or at one of their socially distanced umbrella-covered picnic tables. Steak 'n Shake has also brought back a fan-favorite menu item, the Cajun Burger, available exclusively at the Car Hop through August.

    Pinkberry has a new frozen yogurt flavor: Watermelon Lime, a tart swirl combining watermelon and lime.

    Manhattan Project Beer Co. has a new dessert on the menu at its in-house restaurant: horchata ice cream, served in a scoop on top of a fried arepa and drizzled with cajeta.

    Carrabba's Italian Grill has an expanded menu with new and classic recipes. Appetizers include calamari, mozzarella marinara, and sausage & cheese stuffed mushrooms.

The limited-edition Bisous Bisous Benefit Box, featuring exclusive such as Blueberry Cheesecake and Earl Grey, is available during August for $30 with profits benefiting the Mayo Clinic’s Cancer Research Fund.

They offer one-of-a-kind cocktails like the Murder Hornet and the Smoked and Stormy, crafted by Dickey's VP Phil Butler. While the bar is inside the restaurant, it is separate from the main dining area. It even boasts its own rotating food specials with unique menu items such as a Whiskey Brisket Sandwich.

    Crepe News

    Sweet Paris crepe chain folds in another Dallas location in Addison

    Sweet crepes are coming to Addison via Sweet Paris Crêperie & Café, the Houston-based crêpes chain, which is opening a location in Prestonwood Place, at 5290 Belt Line Rd. #110, with doors expected to open in early 2026.

    Sweet Paris was founded in Houston in 2012 by Ivan and Allison Chavez with a mission to revive the art of eating crepes. There's a location in Southlake, which opened in 2024, and another in McKinney, which just opened in June. (There's also a location coming soon to Dallas' Snider Plaza.)

    The menu offers 20 crepes in varieties savory and sweet including dulce de leche, lemon & sugar, s'mores, chicken enchilada, Philly cheesesteak, and a vegan option with portobello mushrooms, black bean purée, corn salsa, and chipotle sauce.

    While crepes are the signature, they also serve waffles, egg breakfasts, panini, and salads. A "croque madame" crepe has scrambled eggs, gruyère, smoked ham, & béchamel sauce, while an Alaskan has smoked salmon, pickled red onions, capers, and scrambled eggs, topped with dill sour cream, & scallions. Everything is $20 or less.

    They also serve beer and wine, mimosas, milkshakes, espresso drinks such as lattes, and hot chocolate.

    This new location marks the third of four units to be developed by franchisee duo Ludo and Yi Le Gall.

    “We fell in love with Sweet Paris the moment we discovered it,” Ludo says in a statement. “Bringing this unique experience to Texans has been a dream come true, and we’re thrilled to grow our presence throughout the state with a new location in Addison.”

    Situated within Restaurant Row at Belt Line & Montford, Prestonwood Place includes hot hot restaurants like Mendocino Farms, Flower Child, Loro, Postino, Original Pancake House, and more. All it was missing was crepes. Now that niche has been filled by Sweet Paris, with crêpes, coffee, and charm.

    Sweet Paris Crêperie & Café has been growing and now has 21 stores in operation in Arizona, Florida, Minnesota, Texas, and Mexico.
