These four restaurants are serving up Thanksgiving in style, taking the delicious but heavy weight off your shoulders.
Al Biernat’s has Thanksgiving meals covered. First on the itinerary is Thanksgiving Eve dinner, a perfect way to welcome holiday guests from out of town. The next day, exclusive Thanksgiving takeout will be available for curbside pickup in limited quantities throughout the day with easy reheating instructions included. Make sure to reserve the to-go holiday spread ahead of time for a delicious athome feast that will save hours in the kitchen. 4217 Oak Lawn Ave.; 5251 Spring Valley Road, N. Dallas Tollway, albiernats.com
Eataly’s marketplace is ready with everything needed to prepare a decadent Thanksgiving meal with a signature Italian edge, whether hosts are looking for delicious fresh ingredients to add to Turkey Day recipes or want to skip the hassle of cooking altogether. Shop its selection of heritage turkeys, fresh pasta, regional wine, housemade confections and even chef-crafted, ready-to-eat dishes to bring to the holiday table. This season, don’t miss Eataly’s prized winter truffles, a pinnacle of savory Italian winters that will be available just in time for Thanksgiving. NorthPark Center, 8687 N. Central Expressway, Ste. 2172, eataly.com
Florida stone crab claws are on the menu at Truluck’s.
On the menu at Truluck’s this Thanksgiving is lasting holiday memories with loved ones and none of the stress of hosting. From 11AM until the last seating at 8PM on the 25th, feast off its usual menu of fresh, sustainably sourced seafood or opt for a traditional Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings: flavorful turkey breast and giblet gravy, cornbread stuffing, savory Parmesan mashed potatoes, broccoli casserole and cranberry apple compote. The meal is also available as a three-course affair with delightful wine pairings. 2401 McKinney Ave., trulucks.com
Delicious carrot cake
Open for lunch and supper on Thanksgiving, Yardbird won’t be able to completely eliminate the holiday stress: Diners will still have to make the very difficult decision of whether to stick to delicious and tempting menu classics like lobster mac and cheese and American wagyu with harissa butter, or choose from exclusive Thanksgiving specials, all using farm-fresh ingredients and inspired by classic American cooking. The good news is that there is no wrong choice. Both the shrimp and grits and the turkey special will be a reason to be thankful this season. 2121 N. Pearl St., Ste. 170, runchickenrun.com
