Delilah, the glam Los Angeles supper club known for its celebrity clientele, live music, and chic art deco vibe, will officially make its Dallas debut next month.

The restaurant is set to open its doors in the Design District, at 1616 High Line Dr., on February 3, according to its official Instagram account.

It’s the fourth location for the Los Angeles-born Delilah, which first opened in West Hollywood in 2016. It has since expanded to include outposts in Las Vegas, Miami, and now, Dallas, where it will serve up a glam, modern supper club vibe alongside chic cocktails and classic American cuisine.

The Dallas outpost will bring Delilah’s classic, Roaring ‘20s inspired aesthetic to the Design District, along with an equally convivial atmosphere.

The “immersive” restaurant will boast live music, dancers, and “multiple performance moments,” according to a description shared by a representative. Delilah has a no-photos policy that is seriously maintained, too, which has helped it attract a devoted celebrity clientele in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Miami.

According to Vanity Fair, Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey, Beyoncé and Jay-Z, John Mayer, and more A-listers are all fans of the establishment, thanks in part to their ability to dine in privacy. If you’re busted taking photos or video in Los Angeles, you’ll be politely escorted out by security.

“We built this place to protect our friends,” owner John Terzian told the outlet in 2023.

Delilah has not yet released the menu for the Dallas location, but the Los Angeles outpost serves everything from lobster rolls to baby back ribs slathered in barbecue sauce and paired with cole slaw. There’s also a lineup of steaks including a massive 32-ounce tomahawk ribeye, plus roasted chicken and sea bass served with lime and charred onion chimichurri.

During late night hours, the menu is pared back significantly to shareable snacks like chicken fingers and a $15 order of french fries showered in house seasoning — or truffle for 3 bucks more.

Delilah is currently accepting reservations via the platform SevenRooms starting on February 3 — but you might want to act fast, because they’re already getting snapped up quickly. At press time, all tables on opening day had already been reserved, and for the following day, only one spot at 11 pm still remained.

Soccer and dining venue from the UK gears up for U.S. debut in The Colony

TOCA Social will make its U.S. debut in Grandscape in The Colony.

In time for the 2026 FIFA World Cup frenzy taking hold of Dallas, a soccer-themed entertainment and dining venue from the United Kingdom will make its U.S. debut in DFW this spring: Called Toca Social, it will open at The Grandscape complex in The Colony on March 6.

First announced for Grandscape in 2024, Toca Social combines soccer, entertainment, and dining, with a state-of-the-art venue and innovative soccer-based games. (A Toca Social was originally planned for Dallas, but that location was scrapped.)

The concept was founded by two-time U.S. World Cup veteran and MLS player Eddie Lewis and is backed by soccer legend Abby Wambach. It's billed as "the world’s first soccer social club" and only has three other locations - two in London and one in Birmingham, England.

“Toca was born from my obsession with the technical side of the game and the belief that a soccer ball should be at everyone’s feet,” says Lewis in the release. “After seeing the incredible reception in the UK, bringing our Social flagship home to the U.S. — and specifically to a soccer-rich market like Dallas — is a dream realized. We’ve created a place where the skill of the pros meets the energy of a world-class night out.”

The 20,000-square-foot high-tech venue features "social boxes" where players kick soccer balls against a screen that keeps score on best kicks. Cleats are not required. They tout their proprietary ball-delivery and tracking technology — an evolution of the "small ball" training method Lewis used during his 14-year professional career, the release says.

“Soccer is the ultimate unifier, but for too long, the 'entry fee' was being a pro-level athlete,” says Wambach in the release. “Toca Social is changing that narrative. This Dallas-area flagship is where the next generation of American soccer culture is being built.”

Sustenance comes by way of a chef-driven “Global Street Food” menu featuring Birria Tacos and Spicy Fried Chicken; along with a bar program that includes something called a "Pitch Invader" cocktail, which the release does not describe but calls a fan favorite.

There are massive 4K screens, ensuring Toca Social will be a premier location for FIFA World Cup watch parties this summer. Nine World Cup matches will be played at AT&T Stadium in Arlington in June and July. Dallas' Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center will serve as the official will also serve as the International Broadcast Center.

Toca currently operates another concept, Toca Soccer and Sports Centers, in the Dallas-Fort Worth area with locations in Allen, Carrollton, The Colony, Keller, and Mansfield. The company also has a strategic partnership with MLS club, FC Dallas.

“Our partnership with MLS is a cornerstone of our mission to engage fans in innovative new ways,” says Yoshi Maruyama, CEO of Toca. “By launching our U.S. Flagship at Grandscape now, we are providing a world-class destination where fans can play, dine, and celebrate the global game."

Reservations are now open at Toca Social in Grandscape for group outings, celebrations, corporate events, and matchday gatherings.
