Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Forest Hill

Lovely Christmas Eve dining experience. Loved eating on the 2nd floor and our waitress was great. Nice variety of food on the menu and we all enjoyed our meals! Merry Christmas!

We love Mister Charles! The food, experience and service was phenomenal. We especially loved the beef wellington and their baked alaska dish. Great special occasion meal.

We LOVED this place!! So beautiful! We ended up sitting at the bar because we started out there. I didn’t get the bartender who waited on us name, but she was awesome. Spent so much time catching up with my friend that we didn’t eat a whole lot, but what we had was incredible. They also have some fun cocktails and a fantastic wine menu. It was super cold, but we still had to check out the view. Beautiful patio!

We eat here two to three times a year. Last night was probably the best food we’ve had in the last five years. The bottle of Moet was great. Opening the evening was a plate of four pastries (gougyure?) filled with salmon mousse and caviar. We followed with a Farmer’s Green Salad. My wife had catch of the day. Me? Fried quail. There was not a hiccup with any of these entrees - all were excellent. The desserts - chocolate mousse and an apple tart with ice cream The chef’s gift to the table was a pumpkin soup with coconut milk. I wished that they would make this a regular menu item. One slight flaw. The recipe for the famous Dean Fearing tortilla soup seems to have changed. All in all - an excellent evening. IF. If I could change one thing? Hire a carpenter. Put in a vestibule ahead of the outside entry door. it was cold outside last night, and the drafts that passed through the restaurant are quite cold. All in all - the $$ were well spent.

Lonesome Dove was excellent, staff was very helpful in selecting food and drinks that paired well (and is within your budget). If you are in Fort Worth, this is a western fine dining experience you must try!
