From its humble beginnings as a small, home-based catering business, Angela's Bistro 51 has come a long way over the years. The concept started as Angela's Catering in 1977, and quickly became one of Dallas' premier catering companies. Owned and operated by its namesake, Angela Gordon, the success of the catering service was parlayed into Gordon's vision of opening a bistro, and thus Angela's Bistro 51 was born. Many nights Gordon is on hand to welcome guests at this cozy neighborhood eatery. Polished wood floors, bright modernist paintings, and romantic lighting create a relaxing atmosphere. The menu features an array of classic dishes, each prepared with the delicate attention to detail Gordon has become known for. Pork Tenderloin with red currant glaze, Lobster Ravioli with a wild mushroom crème sauce, and a Bistro Tenderlion with roasted garlic mashed potatoes are all just a few of the breathtaking dishes that grace the menu. If you're looking for the perfect place to unwind after a long day, Angela's Bistro 51 is not to be missed.
