This was a fabulous zoo! We have gone twice this summer and still haven't seen the entire park (the second time we were rained out). I love the exhibits. The tiger exhibit is amazing!!! The waterfalls throughout the park are beautiful. I took an awesome photo of the tiger sitting on the edge of a waterfall. It's breathtaking! It's so easy to see the animals. The exhibits are set up in a way where they can't hide to far. We also enjoyed feeding the birds.
PROS: Exhibits are set up beautifully
CONS: Pricey..but worth it, no rainchecks :(, pay for parking

A little piece of Heaven. I love to come here with a picnic lunch and spend a couple of hours just relaxing in the shade. The ground are well manicured and maintained. You honestly forget that you are in Downtown Ft.Worth.
This is a Fabulous place for Weddings as Well. Don't be surprised during the spring if you see a Bride in all her wedding regala slipping in and out amongst the Rose Gardens.

Joe T. Garcia's is definitely worth finding. The first time I tried to find it I got lost. When we finally found it I was surprised how busy it was. We arrived early enough that we didn't have to wait(though I would and have stood in line for an hour to get in). The two dishes they serve at dinner are great! Don't go to Joe T's looking to order the same thing as you order at every other restaurant. You receive so much food with the enchiladas or the fajitas. The food is so good and so fresh my mouth is watering just thinking about it.
I have heard some complain about the noise and all of the happenings that are going on. Just enjoy it. The atmosphere should be enjoyed and appreciated. It wouldn't be Joe T's without it.
I take all my guests to Joe T. Garcia's when they come to town.

I love Joe Ts. Great Atmosphere. Great Service. Sometimes it has a long wait but it is worth it. I order the enchiladas. I am not too crazy about the fajitas but they are ok. The family style side dishes are excellent. Good Guacamole. Love the beans and rice. Last but not least are the cheese nachos that automatically come with the enchilada plate. (not the fajitas) This is a place you must visit. Though the mixed drinks are seriously great....they are expensive compared to decent price on the food.

Lots of exercise as it is a large zoo with many exhibits. They had the dinoroar which my kids really enjoyed. The parrot haven is amazing. The birds fly and eat off sticks right around you. We have the family membership and it is worth every penny of it. Speaking of pennies they also have various machines located throughout the zoo that smashes and puts imprints of animals. Gives kids something to collect without spending lots of money. Nice souvenier shops.

A little pricey but sooo delicious that my best friend and I split an appetizer or order tortilla soup if we are short on cash. If I miss a Friday night I start to have withdraws. I'm not a fan of quesedillas but cant get enough of Blue Mesa's caramelized onion quesedillas or avocado, pesto and sun dried tomato quesedillas. Even if we don't get food, the margaritas made by Maria are smooth and enlightening. The chips are a variety of fried sweet potatoes, blue and yellow corn with smoked or regular salsa... my mouth is watering!

I love this place! The ambiance is great, the food is tasty and unique. The lunch prices are a fantastic value. I had the molasses quail and jalapeno cheese grits which were out of this world. I also had the fish tacos from here. The fish was very flavorful and the corn salsa was different and inspiring. I came here because my co-workers loved the tortilla soup. It was really good, but I would say skip the soup unless you have a huge appetite, because the main courses are very hearty and filling. You definitely will get your money's worth.
Pros: Great value. Unique menu with great flavor
Cons: A little pricey for dinner. Stick to lunch. And parking stinks.

Outstanding meal! The shrimp were succulent and all of our steaks were cooked perfectly. And seasoned perfectly, which is not done right very often. The wine stewards are a blast, one of them walked me into a Washington cab for $90 and it was terrific. The building is beautiful, the service is fluid and friendly. It's easy to see on my end why I'll be back.
Pros: An experience rather than a meal
Cons: None

The burgers at Kincaid's are awesome! the are big and old fashioned. The restaurant itself is neat also. It has the old grocery shelves leading up to the counter and picnic tables to eat with everybody in the place. Do go here expecting a quiet meal. This is a social place. It is a great place to have a great hamburger and be with friends.
