The Reserve at The Highland: A New Dining Experience
The restaurant replacing the former Knife steakhouse at hotel The Highland Dallas has been announced. The Reserve at The Highland, a “modern American grille,” according to a news release, is now open. It sits within the newly renovated property, which is now part of Hilton’s Curio Collection, at the corner of East Mockingbird Lane and the U.S. Highway 75 frontage road near Southern Methodist University.
Continuation of a Steakhouse Tradition
The concept will continue to operate as a steakhouse and serve up robust happy hours and specials as patrons of Knife were familiar with. The Reserve at The Highland aims to provide a unique dining experience, building on the legacy of its predecessor.

Lunch will include lighter meals, such as a beer tip salad served over spinach, sundried tomato, goat cheese, and balsamic dressing. The Reserve also offers a series of specials during weeknights, including half-off wine on Mondays, Steak Night on Tuesdays, half-off bubbles on Wednesdays, and $10 Aperol Spritzes in the Courtyard on Thursdays.
Leadership and Legacy
The Reserve’s kitchen is run by executive chef Andrew Bell. In March, The Dallas Morning News reported that chef John Tesar would move on from Knife at The Highland, and the restaurant at the hotel would cease using the Knife name on Aug. 31. There are still Knife restaurants across North Texas, including a Knife Steakhouse in Plano and Knife Italian Steakhouse in Irving. Tesar has plans for a “meat omakase” dinner concept in Dallas, which he discussed with The News earlier this year.
Hours of Operation
The Reserve at The Highland is open for lunch Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and for dinner seven days a week from 5 to 10 p.m.
