Fort Worth diners didn’t hold back in 2025. From power-lunch steakhouses to see-and-be-seen Stockyards staples, these restaurants stayed booked all year long — and the reservations prove it.
OpenTable dropped its list of the most-booked spots, and the results read like the greatest hits of Fort Worth dining. Here are six tables that had everyone fighting to snag.
1. Texas de Brazil
Located downtown, this bustling Brazilian steakhouse grills its meat churrasco-style — which roughly translates to “barbecue” in Portuguese — and is famous for its expansive salad bar.
2. 97 West Kitchen + Bar at Hotel Drover
If you’re in the Stockyards, this fine eatery is a must. It serves fresh takes on Southern comfort foods, such as the short-rib grilled cheese and the Texas goat cheese grits.
Don’t lie to yourself — you know you want to try the World’s Coldest Martini.

3. Hudson House
The East Coast-inspired menu contains offerings like sushi rolls and raw oysters. It has one of the most raved about dirty martinis in town, and ask any Fort Worthian — its cheeseburger is “one of the best.”
When you’re here, you’re dining in style.

4. Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse + Del Frisco’s Grille
Named one of the “Best Steakhouses in America” by Business Insider, Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse delivers a classic, upscale night out with USDA Prime beef and a vast wine list.
Prefer something more relaxed? Head to its sister spot, Del Frisco’s Grille, which serves up steak and seafood with a more casual vibe. Either way, this is a reservations-recommended, dress-to-impress kind of dinner.
Did we mention it’s famous?

5. Cattlemen’s Steak House
Since 1947, the legendary Cattlemen’s Steak House has been keeping Fort Worth fed — and fiercely loyal to its Stockyards roots. The menu is a meat lover’s dream, with cuts like tomahawk, porterhouse, and sirloin. Not in the mood for beef? You’ll also find fish and grilled shrimp on the menu.
We recommend trying the tenderloin tamales with a pecan mash.

6. Reata
Experience Southwestern and Texan favorites, including pepper-crusted tenderloin with port wine sauce or chicken chile rellenos served with roasted corn chowder.
