    With the first day of fall under our belt and with Dallas temperatures dropping to the mid-'50s, it's not too soon to start talking about fall dishes: pumpkin cupcakes and pecan pancakes and all things cinnamon and clove.

     

    If you're in the mood for a taste of fall, we've made a list:

     

     Bellagreen Autumn Seasonal Menu
    Fast-casual chain has comforting new dishes starring fall fruits and vegetables including butternut squash & pesto soup with butternut squash, potatoes, orange, pesto, pumpkin seeds, and microgreens. Harvest Salad has butternut squash, beets, quinoa, mixed greens, and fig vinaigrette. Autumn Paleo Salmon Tacos has butternut squash and cabbage on almond-flour tortillas. Caramel Pumpkin Cheesecake has a coconut-hemp seed-almond flour gluten-free crust, pumpkin cheesecake, and caramel sauce.

     

     Bonefish Grill fall dishes
    New seasonal dishes include swordfish & pumpkin ravioli with crispy onions and crumbled feta; pair it with an apple martini made with apples infused for three days in vodka, finished with honey. Decadent Pumpkin Lava Cake features cinnamon and nutmeg with a cream cheese molten center, served warm, topped with house-made whipped cream.

     

     Denny's fall-inspired menu
    National chain brings back the Pumpkin Pecan Pancake Breakfast featuring pumpkin pancakes made with real pumpkin & pecans, with pecan pie sauce; served with eggs, hash browns, and bacon or sausage. Double Chocolate Pancake Puppies are chunky balls served with cream cheese icing. The Pecan Panookie is a warm chocolate chip cookie filled with molten chocolate and vanilla ice cream and topped with pecan pie sauce.

     

     Kate Weiser Halloween delights
    Dallas chocolate shop has Halloween-themed delights, available at the Trinity Groves store, Central Market, Neiman Marcus, and online. Chocolate Pumpkin is made from dark chocolate and contains malt balls, cherries, toffee bits, chocolate-covered orange peels, and chewy salted caramel balls; you crack open to eat. Chocolate Skulls come in dark chocolate, filled with mini peanut butter cups, M&Ms, and candy corn; or white chocolate, filled with crushed Oreos. Butterfinger Collection looks like actual fingers. A five-pack includes Almond, Peanut Butter, Pistachio, Hazelnut and Pecan. (Available October 1.) Six-Piece Eyeball Collection features candy eyeballs in three colors: hazel has pumpkin pie ganache in a white chocolate shell; blue has peanut butter cookie gianduja in a dark chocolate shell; green has caramelized pink lady apple ganache in a dark chocolate shell.

    Dudley's Sports Grill to open on Dallas' hot-hot Henderson Avenue

    A new sports bar is joining the mix on Dallas' hot-hot Henderson Avenue: Called Dudley’s Sports Grill, it'll open at 2927 N. Henderson Ave., in the space previously occupied by Smithy, a gastropub that closed in June after seven years.

    According to a spokesperson, Dudley's will open at the end of the summer — "we're only making a few cosmetic changes," the spokesperson says.

    Dudley’s is the brainchild of three Dallas bar veterans — Gabriel Rhodes and Jordan Carson (Christie’s), and Patrick Gorman (Ill Minster Pub). The trio debuted the concept in 2024, when they opened the first location in Rockwall.

    The bar is named after Carson’s grandfather, Floyd Dudley Hitt, who owned land in Rockwall and Royse City. Carson and Rhodes graduated from Rockwall High School in 2006 before coming to Dallas for other restaurant ventures — including working at Christies while it was still in Uptown. (It closed in 2020, then Carson partnered with Ashton Christie to reopen it on Greenville Avenue.)

    Their menu — devised by Dallas chef Eric Freidline, winner of CultureMap's 2019 Tastemaker Awards for Rising Star Chef — is elevated with a barbecue twist, with dishes like queso made with aged white cheddar, thick-cut bacon with fig glaze, brisket flatbread, and brisket grilled cheese.

    Cocktails include the mule served in a boot-shaped glass, and an old fashioned garnished with cinnamon and cloves. Dudley’s also boasts a variety of beers on tap, as well as an assortment of margaritas, all of which are served in ice-cold schooners.

    Dudley’s prides itself in maintaining an unpretentious ambiance, a place where regulars and newcomers alike feel comfortable and welcome — something they thought would work on Henderson Avenue.
