“We were in Ft Worth for my daughter’s bachelorette party Saturday July 13th 2024. We had an email sent to us about large party requirements when we added one xtra person to our reservation we had had for month. The large party requirements were not possible for us we had 12 in our party. We then cancelled our reservation. Decided to stop in to get one of their famous espresso martini. I decided to go to the hostess to ask about our email. She went to get the manager. We told her what happened and that we canceled our reservation also we were so looking forward to this special dinner for my daughter. Emilee the manager listened checked into a few things and explained everything to us. She then told us to be there Saturday at 6:00pm. She wanted to make this right. We arrived at 97 West at 6:00 pm. We were treated with smiles then lead to a private room. The food atmosphere service were out of this world. Emilee and Patricio went out of their way to accommodate and make this night special. Thanks to both for making her night special. Defiantly if your in the area go there. Emilee even gave her a luggage tag with her initials MU. A guy was branding them outside and a congratulations dessert. Definitely went out of their way for us. We will definitely be back if we get to to the stock yards again. ❤️❤️“

“Fixe is a favorite destination!! We sat outside for Sunday brunch, which was lovely. The Frose was perfect!! The salad (and I combined two) were very bland, sadly. Just lettuce and Mancheco (sp??) cheese. It wasn't exciting visually or tasty. Just ‘meh.' However, the deviled eggs were EVERYTHING!!😍We had an amazing server as well! I regret I didn't get her name, but we were on the patio on 10/26 between 11:30AM and 1:30PM. Thank you!?“

“Carpenter’s Cafe & Catering is an amazing restaurant. The food, atmosphere, and service is outstanding. Carpenter’s Cafe & Catering truly is a gem in our Fort Worth community!“

“Hands down one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. The food was flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Can’t wait to come back!”“

“I'm not sure if I'd ever eaten chicken salad before but I'm hooked now. Pimento cheese, poblano chicken soup, the chicken salad is all awesome. The staff is always friendly, I always get takeout but the dine in area looks nice as well. One of our new favorites!“

“I had such a great experience at the Daiquiri Factory! The service was amazing from start to finish. Everyone was so friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was beautiful and really set the vibe, and the music was lit the entire time. I’ll definitely be coming back! 💕 🍹“

“We went early afternoon on a Sunday. It was pretty empty, thus it was nice and quiet. I think the temperature was in the mid 60s but they still had the fire place on which added a nice touch to the cozy feel that the restaurant had. The service was good and the food was good as well. That was our first time going but we liked it and I bet we'll go back again.“

“Amazing service! Fast friendly clean and wonderful service. We came in right as they were closing. Y’all have to understand we had been in line at the Fort Worth stock show for nine hours. They kept the registers open. They took a massive order. They got it all right my kids who are exhausted are now going to bed full and happy and mom and dad are blown away by the amazing service. If you’re ever in Fort Worth check this place out you won’t go wrong.“

“Customer service!! They know how to treat their customers“

“Great drinks and finger food. Even better service from the staff.“

“The Whiskey & Rye was on point. I came in the Monday afternoon right before large convention. The service was attentive without being over whelming. I had a sausage taco and a Redfish taco. They were very good! It was just the right amount to tie me over until dinner. The ambiance is quite alluring also. If you’re in town for a conference you won’t go wrong at the Whiskey and Rye. 👍“

“First time there, I’ll Be Back!!!“

“Good enough for a bite and will return. Prices are affordable especially at the bar. Getting cocktails here and not breaking the bank is reason enough to come here and often. Was late so staff was winding down but they were not on their A game and we were left on an island for awhile. Must have been busy as well as the floor was noticeably covered in debris and tables were sticky. Food was okay. Nothing amazing but none of it was bad. Just a little bland. Regardless, for the price it was solid. You can always add salt.“

“Food good & inexpensive. Staff very friendly.“

“Rochelle or Roseland the waitress was very professional thank you very much for today Debbie and the the crew says great job.“

“One of the best places I’ve ever ordered from. The food is so good.“

“Delicious food and incredible service. Seriously, the folks working here are the nicest! We tried the cranberry chicken salad and a spicy jalapeño one and both were delicious. Clean plates! This was our first time ever trying this place and I definitely plan to be back.“

“Chicken is cooked and seasoned perfectly..crazy that we have so many chicken places in wylie and not a single one is any good(even the cowboy chicken that they are in lol)..until now! Ordered for 6 people and everything was perfect..the bread u see the chicken to keep them from getting soggy is a classy touch…we will be back for sure!“

“This was another attempt at a Cheddars and a much more positive one. The food was very good for the price point. The service was excellent and we would go there again!

Response to the location response: Careful, compliments should be responded accordingly.“

The restaurant is what we all crave for when it comes to cleanliness. For the past three years it’s a pleasure having you in the community, thank you, Elizabeth 🥰🥰“

“I've been a customer since 99' over in North Fort Worth. Always great stuff. Maybe once at the one on Division in Arlington the chicken was too dry, but now I try the one in Arlington off Pioneer and I'm just so happy with their overall service.“

“My family has eaten at this establishment for years now. We do not eat there frequently since we live about 30-40 minutes away but it's my son's favorite chicken place so we go as often as we can. The food is always great, I cannot think of a single time we've ever had an issue. The staff has always been kind and attentive. However, today was a unique day. My son asked to eat there for his 6th birthday. Some hours have passed so I hope I am not misremembering the name but Caleb greeted us at the door and provided the best service I've ever had at a fast food establishment from beginning to end. As someone who has worked in the food industry and knows the workers typically do not get the recognition they deserve, I felt it was important to notify his manager and write this review. We are very grateful to Caleb and to Slims for a wonderful experience and my son especially enjoyed his birthday brownie!“

“Awesome place, ask for ben!!“
