This year’s fall menu at Dancing Marlin was created with the goal of putting unique twists on classic dishes.

The new menu, which features changes or improvements to 18 dishes, debuted on Oct. 9, attracting a large crowd to the restaurant at 20590 S. La Grange Road in Frankfort. Co-owner Tom Kara has seen the restaurant cycle through many seasonal menus, but this was the first one created by new chef and executive director Corey Hageman.

“The Dancing Marlin menu is seasonally inspired,” Kara said. “ I think we knocked this one out of the park.”
