The year 2023 may be about halfway through, but we still have plenty of new North Texas restaurant openings to be excited about. Just within this month, Dallasites can look forward to two new highly-anticipated spots in the upcoming Hôtel Swexan, a favorite Carolina-inspired Southern restaurant in Irving, the ultimate beer haven in The Colony, and more.

This Carolina-inspired Southern restaurant debuts its second DFW location (the first is in Frisco) in Las Colinas on Tuesday, June 13. The North Carolina import is known for its brunch, lunch, and supper. And, of course, for its fried chicken that’s brined for over 18 hours. Created by VP of Culinary and four-time James Beard semifinalist Eric Gabrynowicz, the menu also features shrimp and grits, hot fried chicken with mac and cheese waffles, and more.

This upcoming signature steakhouse at Hôtel Swexan pays homage to Texas ranching legend Hallie Stillwell. Opening on the seventh floor of the hotel on June 15, the steakhouse features “a lively bar, inventive cocktails, plush seating and mid-century, jewel-toned and walnut adorning design.” Stillwell’s will also serve beef from the new Harwood Premium Beef program. Highlights on the menu will include chilled caviar and shellfish, steak tartare, lobster corn dogs, lots of bone-in and classic cuts, beef tallow fries, and more. Master Sommelier for Harwood District, Barbara Werley, has also crafted a special wine list for the new concept.

The lobby-level spot (with outdoor patio) at Hôtel Swexan is named after Swiss author Isabelle Eberhardt, and was “inspired by the sidewalk cafés of Europe.” The new spot will feature an afternoon tea program and will transform into a martini bar with light bites in the evenings. Isabelle’s will also debut on June 15.
