The Ultimate Resy Guide to Dallas Brunch, For Every Occasion

If you believe that dim sum is the best brunch, then Fortune House is definitely your move. The new Greenville Avenue outpost has already become a sensation, thanks to its combination of Shanghai specialties and Chinese American standbys. Pro tip: Don’t miss the soup dumplings.

Large format brunch cocktails for the table. Cinnamon rolls and Italian doughnuts. Everything bagel pizza. Weekend brunch at Paradiso is just plain fun, with something for everyone. You’ve got brunch innovation, brunch classics, and even pizza on the extensive bill of fare.

This crowd-pleasing Bishop Arts District diner earned its reputation as a breakfast-all-day refuge, and it remains at the top of any brunch list. The cheeseburger remains a signature, but the daytime menu is extensive and full of twists on familiar favorites, from bread pudding French toast to huevos rancheros to brisket hash.

Note: Weekday reservations are always available, but weekend brunch is first-come, first-serve. You can add your name to the waitlist via Resy. 

The sparkling Sadelle’s in Highland Park Village is a New York deli — but hardly your typical one, which is why it stands out. You’ll find sliced-to-order salmon, a bevy of omelette options, best-in-show bagels, and mile-high deli sandwiches. It’s a great place to treat yourself to a celebratory brunch.

The brunch menu at the always-picturesque Beverley’s is the kind of menu where you want to order everything — caviar and latkes; oysters on the half shell; cinnamon toast. There’s a reason Beverley’s is one of our favorite date spots; it’s the perfect place for a couple to share a spread.

Did Dallas need another Tex-Mex restaurant? Absolutely — especially when it’s opened by Jon Alexis, proprietor of the celebrated TJ’s Seafood Market, and features the biggest patio in the neighborhood.

While not “brunch” per se, weekend lunch service on the patio at Il Bracco is one of our favorite dining experiences to slow down and enjoy la dolce vita. So if you’re not an eggs-or-pancakes kind of person, explore the salads and pasta options here.

During brunch hours, the clubby restaurant turns into a daytime party. Go for fun dishes like pancake tacos and Hawaiian roll French toast, or just stick to the large amounts of mimosas.
