Byblos

If there's a better lunch buffet to be had in Fort Worth, we haven't found it. Byblos lays out a delicious spread of Lebanese and Middle Eastern specialties in the Stockyards, including chicken roasted in lemon juice and herbs; a savory rice dish, Dajaj Bil Riz, with chunks of chicken, finely ground sirloin and a dash of cinnamon; and fall-off-the-bone-tender roasted legs of lamb. All of these items and much more are also available for dinner off the menu, but the inexpensive buffet is a perfect way to get a sampling of Byblos' specialties. The Kataifi (baklava), made with pistachios and delicately flavored rose water, was also superb. If you want to impress your friends, order a hookah at your table.
