Lonesome Dove Fort Worth

"We chose Lonesome Dove Western Bistro - Fort Worth for our special night out in the Stockyards, and it did not disappoint! We started with the Rattlesnake sausage and Elk Sliders, then most of our group had the Texas Red (chili) and were glad they had ordered that. Beef Tenderloin was the entree we all chose, with many shared sides. Our steaks were cooked to perfection. For dessert, a decadent ancho chile chocolate cake with crunchy almond brittle and house-made vanilla bean ice cream finished the evening on a high note. Our service was exceptional and there was no rush for the table, so we were able to enjoy every minute of our evening. I would highly recommend Lonesome Dove if you are ever visiting the Stockyards!!! Although it is an expensive meal, it will be worth every penny."

"For the prices charged, we expected more. Food was average, service good though. Scary incident: A roach landed on my shoulder, yes, it picked me. Friend sitting next to me jumped and screamed which drew staff attention. Management somewhat apologized and said it's just a water bug, oh well."

"WE HAD THE BEST MEAL/TIME EVER!! Conner was our waiter, he was incredible. We enjoyed every single item we got from the rattlesnake sausage, kangaroo, elk tenderloin, elk sliders, chili, chocolate dessert, rabbit ravioli it was all incredible."

"New Year’s Eve Dinner was a bit underwhelming. We started with the lobster hushpuppies, which were tasty. The beet salad lacked beets and other toppings. It was mostly spinach. The fries were good but most of them were nubs. The redfish was very spicy. It was packed with jalapeño’s, which was unexpected. The presentation was nice. The lamb was ok. I had high hopes for this place. Maybe I should have ordered something more exotic. Our server was nice and the service was good."

"Great food, great experience. However, be prepared to be smoked almost as much as the protein and to be drowned in noise. It has a very loud atmosphere and a constant haze of smoke throughout the evening. The food was excellent. I recommend the kangaroo nacho and the wild boar ribs. My wife had rabbit ravioli that was tasty, but just a little bit too salty. I had the bison, and it was cooked perfectly and delicious. The LD mac&cheese was super rich and flavorful and the Brussel sprouts were caramelized to perfection and the best I've had in a while. The staff was super friendly and attentive, but they did forget to bring our drinks. All in all, it was a great dinner. I will bring the rest of the family next time to share in the experience with us."
