With a reputation for delivering a diverse menu that caters to both meat enthusiasts and vegetarians alike, Open Palette stands out as a versatile dining option for conference attendees and locals in search of convenient yet quality meals.
As I walked into the restaurant, I was immediately struck by the inviting atmosphere, perfectly balancing modern elegance with a comforting feel. The menu itself is a masterpiece of variety, showcasing seasonal offerings and fan favorites. In particular, you can’t miss the winter salad and the crab cake bites, both of which have received rave reviews for being perfectly suited to the colder months—fresh, flavorful, and uplifting.
During my visit, I noted a mix of experiences reflected in the reviews from fellow diners. While some recognized the inconsistency in service, with comments suggesting some visits felt a bit rushed or inattentive, others celebrated the attentive nature of the staff, such as Sr Sous Chef Ricardo, who personally checks in with guests. This personalized touch adds a sprinkle of warmth to the dining experience.
The food can be a delightful surprise. One diner praised the beef rib as “the most amazing” they’ve ever had—falling off the bone and complemented perfectly by delicious sides. Such highlights demonstrate that when the kitchen is firing on all cylinders, Open Palette truly delivers memorable dishes that make it worth returning for.
Overall, Open Palette serves as a solid choice for a quick meal, especially if you’re in the midst of a conference. However, as some reviews suggest, it might not be the destination dining experience for those seeking culinary adventures outside the hotel. While the restaurant holds promise, the highlights of its menu are what should draw you back—especially on those occasions when you crave comfort and familiarity.
So whether you’re here for a conference, catching up with friends, or simply passing through Dallas, make a stop at Open Palette. With its mix of seasonal favorites and an appealing dining environment, it’s a place that deserves a spot on your dining to-do list.

“ Open Palette - Sheraton Dallas “We tried Open Palette three times during our conference stay, and each visit was a bit of a roll of the dice. Some days, the wait staff was friendly and on it, while other times it felt like we’d been forgotten. The food followed suit—sometimes delicious, other times pretty forgettable. It’s convenient if you need a quick bite between conference sessions, but if there were more options nearby, I’d probably explore those. All in all, Open Palette does the job but isn’t a must-visit.” ”
“ Food was good but not great. Had the ribeye asked for rare and it was almost well done. I’d say eat outside the hotel if you’re here a while. ”
