When we reached out to update our 2024 spring and summer restaurant preview, we discovered that UNCO Hospitality shifted its strategy for a new space in the Continental Gin Building, where it has the Eater Award-winning best new bar in Dallas for 2023, Tina’s Continental. Back at the start of the year, we reported that it would open a space called Let’s Ask Keith, named after UNCO head Elias Pope’s father, and it would be a sit-down dinner restaurant, but the kind of food was undecided. Well, the plans changed, and by March of this year the company had decided to open a second location of the Culpepper Cattle Co.
According to a press release, that opening is now happening on May 1.
The Culpepper Cattle Co. will serve lunch, brunch, and dinner, with a menu based on it’s original Rockwall location. Pope’s career includes a stint at Saltgrass Steakhouse, and he cites the chain’s ethos of quality ingredients at approachable prices as an inspiration for the menu at Culpepper.
The menu includes a slew of Texas-style favorite dishes, including a double-bone pork chop, a steakhouse burger, chicken fried lobster, and fried green tomatoes. It will also serve Tex-Mex classics, including fajitas, enchiladas, nachos, flautas, and a house queso.
It will feature a covered patio outdoors that seats 60 and is ideal for having a margarita. And in a win for the neighborhood, it offers valet but also has four-hour free on-site parking.
Culpepper Cattle Co. will be at 3309 Elm Street in the Continental Gin Building. It opens on May 1 and will serve lunch and dinner Monday through Friday and adds brunch to lunch and dinner on Saturday and Sunday.
