Rank 3. Panther City BBQ
Barbecue
A former food truck now settled into a Fort Worth storefront, Panther City barbecues on offset pits in the Central Texas tradition—thick-cut brisket with a peppery bark, tender pulled pork—then folds that smoke into burritos and elote. The sides matter: smoked mac and cheese sharp enough to stand alone, a potato salad studded with cheese and green onion. Arrive early or accept the line.

A casual spot where corridos play and Rogelio Cortez Jr. serves only birria—braised until it shreds at the merest suggestion. Corn tortillas arrive stuffed generous with meat, onion, cilantro, lime; the quesatacos, two tortillas bound with melted cheese and birria crisped at the edges, are a study in restraint and focus. One protein, infinite formats, and no need for anything else.

Rank 17. Goldee’s BAR-B•Q
Barbecue
A modest barbecue shop where young pitmasters work Black Angus brisket over post oak, yielding meat so tender it dissolves on the tongue with a clean, mineral richness. Served on homemade bread with a mustardy sauce or unadorned, it draws hours-long lines for good reason—the real test is whether you can catch them before the day's smoke clears.

Rank 18. Smoke'N Ash BBQ
Tex-Ethiopian Barbecue
An Arlington smoker joint where Tex-Mex barbecue meets Ethiopian spice: brisket and pulled lamb kissed with awaze, a fiery spice sauce that rewrites the regional rulebook. The platters invite grazing across smoked meats and unexpected sides—collard greens, fried okra, lentil stews—that feel like a conversation between two culinary traditions rather than a gimmick.

Rank 63. Lucia
Italian
In the Bishop Arts District, David Uygur works from Italian foundations, building dishes around seasonal Texas produce and house-made pasta with the restraint of someone who trusts his ingredients. The menu turns with the seasons; wine leans Italian. Jennifer's warmth at the door makes the small room feel like it's been waiting for you.

Rank 69. Ayahuasca Cantina
Mezcal Mexican
You enter through a cafe's back hallway into a moody speakeasy where every bottle behind the bar hails from Mexico and cocktails trace the country's drinking history from pre-Columbian fermentations through modern riffs. The kitchen matches that ambition with pre-Hispanic dishes like octopus in ink and stone-cooked broths, prepared with enough authenticity that servers will happily decode the menu.

A narrow slip of a bar in Oak Cliff where bartender Hugo and chef Hugo fuss over cocktails with the same intensity they bring to small plates—the Ron Kon Cafe comes topped with a housemade Mr. Black and Guinness reduction and salted plantain puree. It's the kind of place where you meant to stay for one drink and instead linger through several, nursing oysters and watching two people who clearly love what they do.

Rank 74. Written By The Seasons
Contemporary New American
In the Bishop Arts District, a bright room hums with the rhythm of a kitchen that lets the season dictate its moves. Carrots arrive dusted with dukkah, branzino glazed in harissa, vegetables commanding the plate with the same authority as protein. The cocktail list shifts with the calendar, and the focaccia alone rewards a visit.

Rank 82. Barbara's Pavillion
Dive Bar
Barbara's Pavilion, a low-key Oak Cliff dive that's been around for over 50 years, leans into its retro charm with karaoke nights on Thursdays and Sundays plus burlesque shows the third Wednesday of each month. The kind of unpretentious neighborhood bar where your bartender might already be a regular and the jukebox pulls everything from '70s disco to contemporary hip-hop.

Rank 90. El Carlos Elegante
Mexican
The wood-fired grill anchors a warm dining room where crab cakes give way to pork al pastor and house-made masa for tableside taco assembly. Charred okra and Mexican chocolate pot de crème round out a menu built on grilled meats and shareable plates, paired with a serious tequila and mezcal program.

Rank 93. Fearing's
Southwestern New American
Inside the Ritz-Carlton, Chef Dean Fearing's dining room reads traditional steakhouse but operates by its own rules. A Lone Star mosaic of raw tuna, wagyu, salmon, and barbecued eel arrives like stained glass; baklava s'more pivots toward pistachio marshmallow and burnt rosemary ice cream. American cooking with Southwestern swagger, built on surprise.

Revelers Hall transplants 1920s New Orleans brass-band energy to a corner of Bishop Arts, where Kevin Butler's big band plays with such infectious festivity that the room practically vibrates with the urge to dance. It's a bar with flatbreads, cheese boards, and charcuterie—decidedly not the place for a quiet drink, but exactly right if you want to be swept up in something loud and joyful.
