Food Scene

This list is some of our personal faves and definitely small business/locally owned. If there’s anything on the list that we don’t have messages and we probably have an answer.
One of our favorite Mexican food restaurants in Fort Worth. It's been family owned since it started and the customer service is the BEST. My fave here are the chicken enchiladas. they are famous for their "flaming margaritas".

They fly in their seafood FRESH everyday. You won't find better seafood in town. It's pricey, so be ready! Worth every penny. Selections change seasonally, but they have fresh oysters and the halibut (if they have it) is the yummiest!

Nice little "hole in the wall" bar. Has a nice outdoor patio if the weather is nice. Happy hour prices Sunday, $5 Old Fashions! :) I'm sure they have other times, that's just the one I know about.
