 Mexican and Tex-Mex food |
824 Airport Freeway Fort Worth, TX 76054 United States +1 817 514 9355 |
Abuelo's, which means "grandfather's" in Spanish is located close to the DFW airport. Famous traditional Mexican and Tex-Mex dishes are prepared here in a gourmet style and are elegantly served in generous portions. Delicious entree choices include a huge platter of mesquite-flavored chicken fajita nachos, the enchilada sampler and the pechuga alcaparrada(split breast of chicken stuffed with mushrooms and monterrey jack cheese). The rich desserts such as flan, capirotada-bread pudding with pecans and raisons, and margarita pie rival those at any other gourmet restaurant. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Luxurious penthouse restaurant with panoramic view |
2221 East Lamar Boulevard (Brookhollow II Building, Suite 910) Fort Worth, TX 76006 United States +1 817 640 9981 |
Conde Nast Traveler and Gourmet magazines have recognized Cacharel Restaurant, and the Dallas Morning News and Zagat's have hailed it as a four-star restaurant. This is because the "new French cuisine" here is exquisite. A wide range of entrees, including fish, lamb, quail, duck and chicken, are available on the fixed price menu. Individually priced entrees are also available, including the grilled ostrich omelet, the smoked salmon quesadilla and the lemon-pepper farfalle. To complete your meal, try chef Hans Bergmann's signature dessert, a paper-thin phyllo dough filled with white chocolate mousse and covered with fresh raspberries and sauce. The restaurant's country French-style wood and glass doors, along with the wood flooring and wall trim, add to the romantic ambiance. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Wine bars are rare in Texas, and this one is among the country's best, so visitors to Sundance Square are in for a real treat. Owner Michael Baudouin came up with the idea for this place after living in Paris. More than 80 different vintages are available at Grape Escape, and the inventory changes regularly. Servings are available by the bottle, glass and half glass. Those who wish to increase their wine expertise may order a sampler plate of three, four or five one-ounce servings. Those who want food with their wine can choose from such light fare as cheese, carpaccio and small pizzas. Review © 2007, Wcities |
