Four familiar area restaurants will open outposts in the new Hotel Vin as part of a food hall wing, Harvest Hall.

The new food hall will open this summer on South Main Street near the TEXRail station. Here’s a look at the new food hall stands:

The big name: ChIck & Biscuit, serving exactly what the name says. It’s a new venture by Grapevine’s incredibly popular Mason & Dixie, a lunch cafe.

Owner Beth Newman plans more of the same scratch Southern cooking that made Mason & Dixie a hit,

For lunch and dinner, she’ll offer chicken biscuits with pimiento, housemade pickles and herb-buttermilk dressing, with a choice of 14 toppings, including sausage gravy, bacon and whipped honey butter.

There’s also a “Nashville hot” chicken biscuit, a chicken-salad biscuit and brisket or pulled-pork biscuits. Dinners include biscuit bread pudding, “Mississippi mud” chocolate biscuits and churro biscuits.

Four Sisters — A Taste of Vietnam from Fort Worth will bring more of what made the South Main Village location one of Texas Monthly magazine’s “best new restaurants” in Texas for 2019.

Tuan Pham is known for his 18-hour pho broth. The Fort Worth location is updating the menu this spring, adding its own special-blend Vietnamese coffees, stir-fry pho zao rice noodles, a papaya salad and a Pop Bar-made Vietnamese gelato bar .

An Italian stand, Spuntino — Bites of Italy, brings Emilia-Romagna-style cooking from Loveria Caffe, which has survived in the tough Colleyville market.

Loveria is architects Andrea Matteucci’s and Stefania Bartozzi’s “door towards Italy,” serving the best dishes from their Ravenna home.

The menu will include lasagna, street pizza, pollo alla cacciatora and a quinoa salad.

Also in Harvest Hall: Arepa TX — Latin Kitchen, a Dallas arepas restaurant by “Frugal Chef” Mary Ann Allen.

Watch for Harvest Hall to open in midyear along with the Vin; 817-796-9696, harvesthall.com.
