Commons Club at Virgin Hotels Dallas

Unveiled on December 15 in the Dallas Design District is the chic Virgin Hotel and its equally stylish restaurant and lounge headed up by one of the city's most exciting chefs, Matt McCallister. Designed to feel like a modern social club, the seasonally driven menu follows a French meets Texan theme with many of the items cooked via live fire in a charcoal-burning oven and wood-fired rotisserie. Expect to see various large-format dishes such as grilled grouper with sauce bourride and root vegetables, black pepper-crusted wagyu ribeye roast and rotisserie roasted chicken with stewed onion créme fraiche. Other enticing options include tuna and pickled golden beet crudo as well as roasted scallops in the half shell dressed in citrus brown butter and hazelnut crumble.
