Memorial Day, observed Monday, May 25, honors the U.S. service members who died while serving their country. The holiday also marks the unofficial start of summer and offers a rare three-day weekend for families and friends to gather. Across Dallas, restaurants are extending the usual weekend brunch into Monday with everything from relaxed patio dining to buffets and prix fixe menus, creating plenty of ways to linger a little longer over the holiday meal.

Here are the Dallas restaurants hosting Memorial Day brunch:
