Warning: Remove your shades before you enter this intimate restaurant, softly illuminated by clusters of glass grapes, or you'll be unable to find your table. Totally unpretentious and casual, this European-style bistro is the kind of place we'd all like to have in our neighborhood. For more than three decades, The Grape has drawn a loyal crowd and managed to keep up with current food trends, while retaining its bistro ambience. The menu, listed on a colorful chalkboard, changes every month. But one thing that remains the same is the cream of mushroom soup. This opulent concoction is the gold standard for mushroom soup in Dallas and no visit here is complete without a cup of it. In addition, the baked Brie plate served with fruit, crackers and honey has a wonderful blend of sweet and salty tastes and a myriad of textures. Entrées have a modern bistro attitude with seasonal fresh veggies and meat and seafood prepared with little fuss and lots of flavor. A dozen or so cheeses are on hand to round out any meal. The nicely priced and well focused wine list is the heart and soul of the place and keeps folks coming back for more. Desserts such as the decadent Jack Daniels pecan pie are delightful.
