Executive chef Luke Rogers has rebounded from the closing of Savor, the late restaurant at Klyde Warren Park that was a casualty of the pandemic, with his newest venture, Cathedral Italian Bistro in Plano. As reported in the Observer earlier this year prior to the opening, Rogers’ vision was of a combined steakhouse and Italian restaurant: “We're going to have a steakhouse vibe, mixed with Italian food, wagyu steaks and handmade pastas.”

Eager to try out new Italian restaurants and always on the lookout for another steakhouse to add to our rotation, we stopped in the other night for a first look at this relatively new entry on the North Texas food scene.
