Creative New American fine-dining in a hotel that's a bastion of Old Texas.

In Short
Inside the multi-million-dollar renovated Driskill Hotel is a sedate, refined, dimly lit space. Presidents, writers, actors and other celebrated faces dine at these tables, presided over by the jowly portraits of former governors. The ever-changing menu is set up in three courses plus dessert, or a nine-course tasting menu with optional wine pairings. Popular menu standards include the pan-roasted duck breast with apple-raisin hollandaise and pistachio-crusted sea scallops with a truffled herb salad.
