Groot Hospitality, a Florida-based group, plans to open a Pan-Asian restaurant in Deep Ellum in 2023, D Magazine reports.
The restaurant, Komodo, will be located at The Epic, a mixed-use development on Pacific Avenue. The property is home to dining establishments such as Harper’s, in addition to residences and office spaces. Soon, La Neta Cocina y Lounge will open there.
This will be the second location for Komodo. The other, in Miami, is a three-story, 17,000-square-foot restaurant that seats 300.
Komodo’s menu will include dishes such as salmon tacos, Chilean seabass skewers, and sushi, according to D. There will also be some items unique to the Dallas location, such as Szechuan Texas quail.
It is expected to open at The Epic in March 2023 and will encompass two stories, with a seating capacity of 270 customers.
Groot Hospitality was founded in 2018 by David Grutman. Other than Komodo, its properties include Liv and Story nightclubs, and restaurants Gekko, The Key Club, Papi Steak, Strawberry Moon and Swan. Groot Hospitality also partnered with Pharrell Williams on The Goodtime Hotel.
