Crisp air, cozy sweaters, and the return of all things spiced. Fall is making it way into Addison! And with it comes a fresh wave of seasonal menus from some of your favorite restaurants. From hearty comfort food to sweet treats and cocktails with a twist, local chefs are leaning into everything we love about autumn.

Ida Claire: Southern Comfort with a Seasonal Twist

Ida Claire always knows how to lean into comfort food, and their fall lineup is no exception. Think crispy chicken in a biscuit smothered in peppered gravy, or crawfish corn beignets that are just as crave-worthy as they sound. Their Ancient Grain & Shrimp Bowl pulls in roasted squash, dried cranberries, and pumpkin seeds, the ultimate nod to autumn flavors. And don’t forget dessert: seasonal pies and bourbon pecan perfection make it hard to leave without something sweet.

Lazy Dog: Cozy Plates for Cool Nights

Lazy Dog is all about comfort with a twist, and their fall menu is basically sweater weather on a plate. Highlights include the pretzel-crusted chicken schnitzel with apple cider slaw and bacon potato salad, a hearty nod to Oktoberfest vibes plus Roadtrip™ bowls filled with wok-fired noodles and seasonal veggies. And when it’s time for dessert? Pumpkin cheesecake topped with whipped cream and toasted pumpkin seeds is calling your name.

La La Land: Pumpkin Cloud Magic

La La Land takes pumpkin spice to a dreamy new level with their Pumpkin Cloud lineup. From pumpkin pie lattes to pumpkin chai, each drink is topped with their signature “cloud foam” that’s as photogenic as it is tasty. Trust us, this is one pumpkin treat that lives up to the hype.

Sweetgreen: Harvest Bowls with Seasonal Twist

This fall, Sweetgreen is leaning into the season with a menu that reinvents classics and adds comforting sides. The Autumn Harvest Bowl brings maple-glazed Brussels sprouts, roasted sweet potatoes, apples, wild rice, blackened chicken, kale, goat cheese, and almonds together with a tangy balsamic vinaigrette.

They’ve also introduced the Autumn Caesar, which features candied pumpkin seeds, roasted tomatoes, garlic breadcrumbs, roasted chicken, and shredded kale for a hearty, seasonal spin on the classic. And if you’re in the mood for something simple, their sides of maple-glazed Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes with hot honey mustard are fall in every bite.

Ascension: Fall Coffee Flight

Coffee lovers, rejoice! Ascension is rolling out fall coffee flights that let you sip through the season. Expect cozy flavors like pumpkin spice, chai, and maple lattes all served side by side so you can taste a little of everything. It’s basically autumn in four cups, and it’s the perfect excuse to slow down and savor.

Astoria Cafe and Wine Bar: The Maple Old Fashioned

When it comes to cocktails, nothing says fall quite like a Maple Old Fashioned. This seasonal twist on the classic blends whiskey with maple syrup and bitters for a smooth, warming drink that’s equal parts cozy and sophisticated. Sip it slowly, and you’ll swear the leaves are changing right in front of you.
