Within the historic Warwick Melrose Hotel (see) in Uptown lies one of the finer culinary experiences to be had in Dallas. Tender braised veal cheeks with truffle-infused mashed potatoes and basil-marinated grilled shrimp with cucumber-mango salad are examples of the seriously seductive dishes typically offered. A seven-course tasting menu, with or without wine pairings, is a must. Elegant, understated décor incorporates vintage marble and new oil paintings, creating a setting ideal for business meetings and romantic rendezvous. The Library Bar features live piano music every evening.
