The small menu here reflects the predominantly fried All-Stars of Texan and Southern cuisine. There’s fried chicken and chicken-fried steak, natch. There’s fried catfish and pot roast. There’s fried chicken tenders and smoked chicken. That’s the entire selection of main dishes at Babe’s Chicken Dinner House. No joke. And that’s a relief to see in […]

Since when did downtown Fort Worth become a European transport? When the Bass Hall opened. This uniquely beautiful concert hall is like nothing else in Dallas or Fort Worth. With five levels of seating, be cautious not to sit too high in the sky (painted ceiling) or you might be airsick.

It’s not easy to put “seafood” and “cheap” into the same sentence, unless you’re talking about fish balls and chum. But Big Fish manages to juggle these terms on the same menu – successfully for the most part. Oysters are good, crab legs are killer, and the shrimp cocktail is brilliant. Yet sometimes things are served […]
Its building was originally an open air barn built over a century ago to hold cattle for the Fort Worth Stock Show. Since then it has served as an airplane factory and department store before arriving at its true calling in 1981, opening its doors at Billy Bob’s Texas, self-billed as “the world’s largest honky […]
Bin 555 has a kids’ lounge–Wii, Xbox, Playstation, Net surfing, kid movies and chicken fingers and mac and cheese and so on (don’t you dare eat it in the lounge).

There are steakhouses for celebrating business deals, steakhouses for wooing lovers and steakhouses where the only imperative is to enjoy a good plate of quality red meat. Bob’s Steak and Chop Shop falls in the latter category. While parties flock to this local favorite, there are few better spots for a single eater to sidle […]

The space is palatial, if a bit banquet-hall-esque, the salad bar is ample and relatively fresh and the skewered meats, served by gauchos with wicked carving knives slipped into their belts, are for the most part juicy and […]
One of Irving’s top places for chaat is Bombay Chowpatty, named after a beach lined with street food vendors. The dining room showcases some of that airy atmosphere, with seats arranged food-hall style around a central open kitchen and many of the walls plastered with beach photos and Bollywood posters. Pav bhaji is a superb […]
