The III Forks Prime Steakhouse you knew is getting a bold new chapter. The iconic steakhouse is reinventing itself with a stunning new flagship location now open in Addison’s Village On The Parkway.

From the moment you step through the oversized golden doors, you’re transported. Think curated wine walls with 1,000+ bottles, dramatic lighting, custom design touches, and a luxe yet modern vibe.

This isn’t your traditional steakhouse. It’s a luxury experience complete with an elegant bar, intimate private dining spaces, and a menu that boasts a rich lobster mac and cheese along side unique offerings like the Snake River Farms American Wagyu NY Strip that is served with flamed Jack Daniel's Bottled-In-Bond and Bourbon Infused Maldon Salt.

Welcome to Addison, III Forks!

Imagine a dance frozen in time—two figures twirling in perfect harmony, their movements reflecting endlessly in polished steel. That’s Tango Fantasia, a 15-foot stainless steel masterpiece by Dallas artist Art Fairchild, commissioned by the Addison Arbor Foundation.

By day, its geometric patterns catch the light. By night, a dazzling lighting program brings it to life, shifting with the seasons and special events. More than a sculpture, Tango Fantasia is an experience—a tribute to movement, connection, and the art of imagination.
