Online reservation site OpenTable has ranked three Dallas eateries among the best brunch spots in the country.
Al Biernat’s Oak Lawn, Café Pacific, and Kenny’s Wood Fired Grill all made the “Top 100 Brunch Restaurants” list for 2025. The top spots were compiled by using OpenTable’s vast database of millions of verified diner reviews and metrics from 2024, including the percentage of five-star reviews.
Opened in 1998, this Oak Lawn establishment specializes in great steak and seafood. It also boasts one of the city’s largest wine lists, at 700 strong, and is one of the most booked restaurants in Dallas.
“Consistently wonderful! Always feels like a special occasion,” commented one recent diner.
If you want a fancy night out, look no further than Café Pacific. Enjoy delicious seafood in a rich mahogany setting. One recent diner described the food and service as “outstanding.”
While not pretentious, you may still want to dress up, as Café Pacific does not permit t-shirts, shorts, or flip-flops.
Expect scrumptious burgers and seafood cooked over hickory wood. Kenny’s patrons boast of exceptional service and delicious steaks.
“This place is next to perfect. Great menu, great drinks, and exceptional service. I’ll never go to Dallas area again without eating here,” wrote one reviewer on OpenTable.
