Food Scene

BEST enchiladas in Fort Worth. This is a hidden gem, but is growing in popularity. Lunch is the best time to go. I suggest the 'street enchiladas' or 'hatch enchiladas' with brisket. Price = Cheap.

If you're looking for upscale dining in Fort Worth, it doesn't get better than this.

The Elk sliders are to die for! Valet parking. Price = High.

This is a really cool area. Atmosphere, food, drinks, it's all perfect! Huge outdoor patio on the river. If you happen to have a peanut allergy (like I do) you'll be happy to know it's a peanut-free kitchen. Great for kids as there's a ton of space to roam around and play (in sight of parents). Nice place to eat, drink and take a walk. Price = Moderate.

This is my favorite cozy bar in the Stockyards. Live country bands and a lot of famous cowboy/cowgirl hats on the ceiling. A very authentic 'Texas' experience. If you enjoy dancing, there is a raised dance floor in front of the band stage.
