Playing the host when you don’t feel like cooking? These Christmas restaurants in Dallas will literally save you from losing it. Along with the obvious advantages, like hosting a stress-free event while making sure everyone is well-fed, you can find a venue that fits your style and mood like a glove. This cultural and historic location has some of the best eateries for a holiday meal, together with classy entertainment options such as ballet or opera. So, if you love an elegant celebration, check out Tagvenue’s curated restaurants for your festive dinner!
If by all-inclusive you mean the starter, the main course, and the dessert, then yes! Most alcoholic beverages will not be included in the Christmas package, though. You may have one bottle of wine or champagne as part of the package, but you will still have to pay for any additional bottles. If you’re hosting a large event, such as a company holiday dinner party, consult the venue manager to assist you with the decor, entertainment, and all the preparation. Dallas offers a range of restaurants with special offers for Christmas dinner, so you'll surely find something for yourself!
If you love nature, think of renting a Christmas restaurant at White Rock Lake, where you can take your guests to the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden after lunch. Downtown and Uptown Dallas also have much to offer, such as Klyde Warren Park, surrounded by the glistening Dallas skyline. Missing the beach? The sandy shores and meadows of Lake Grapevine, located northeast of Fort Worth, will certainly make you feel better!
Alcohol doesn’t come cheap, and while you may be tempted to sneak in a couple of bottles, it’s best to check whether the restaurant accommodates such options. You can use the 'BYO alcohol allowed' filter to find Dallas restaurants for Christmas dinner that offer this option. If you can't find anything fitting, it’s best to simply respect their policy and buy alcohol at the spot.
While alcohol plays a huge part at Christmas gatherings, it can cost a lot. A simple way to cut costs is to select a few affordable options or simply restrict the number of bottles for the event. Consider small but effective changes, like swapping champagne for prosecco.
Good question! Consult your guests to know if they have any dietary restrictions and let the venue manager know at the earliest. Most restaurants will be glad to provide some options for your guests despite the existing Christmas menu. So make sure to communicate openly!
Corrientes 348 Argentinian Steakhouse – Downtown Dallas
This is a refined, meat-forward spot that suits more formal Christmas events—client dinners, team recognition nights, or high-end family meals. The service is polished, and the menu is built for generous, multi-course dining with plenty of wine options to match. You won’t need to do much decorating here; the ambience and table settings do most of the heavy lifting. It's also a good venue if you want to keep speeches short and sweet but still treat guests to a full holiday experience.
3Eleven Kitchen and Cocktails – Downtown Dallas
If you're looking for somewhere that feels occasion-worthy but still relaxed, 3Eleven hits the mark. The interiors are sharp and well laid out, offering separate zones for dinner, drinks, and lounge-style gathering. It's centrally located, making it easy for guests coming from different areas, and the staff are comfortable handling corporate and private holiday events alike. The cocktail menu is a strong point here, and you can often work with them to create a custom drink for your event.
Chet’s – Downtown Dallas
Chet’s brings an upscale, private-club feel without being stuffy, making it a strong pick for office holiday parties or grown-up Christmas gatherings. Located downtown, it’s easy for guests to reach by rideshare or public transport. There’s a large bar area that works well for mingling before a formal meal. You can often customize the menu with seasonal specials or request dietary-specific versions for groups.
Another Round – North Oak Cliff
For something more interactive, Another Round offers mini-golf and casual eats in a setting that naturally gets people talking. It’s an easy win for teams or friend groups who want a Christmas party that isn’t just another dinner. The event space has a bar area, enough tables for food service, and plenty of flexibility for moving between activities and socialising. You can bring in your own caterers or opt for their group-friendly menus.
Longhorn Icehouse – Northwest Dallas
This one’s a favourite for companies and groups that want a classic Texas-style Christmas gathering. The space is flexible enough for dining, games, and music, with plenty of room to shift layouts. You’ll find pool tables, TVs, and bar service—all useful for more relaxed or themed parties. It’s not formal, but it is functional, and the team knows how to handle high-volume service. Think holiday parties with beer towers, BBQ platters, and raffle prizes.
Craftsman House Near Bishop Arts - North Oak Cliff
This homey venue is great for intimate Christmas dinners or niche themed parties. Think DIY cocktail bars, communal-style dinners, or even festive workshops followed by drinks. Quiet neighbourhood, but close enough to walk to bars afterwards, if the party spills over.
