Inside Flora House: Juan Rodriguez’s New Restaurant at the Fort Worth Botanic Garden

Rock Springs Cafe shut its doors for good on June 30. It had sat inside the Rock Springs Building at the Fort Worth Botanic Garden since 2019, pouring coffee and building lunch plates for a steady stream of garden visitors who wanted something to eat between the rose collection and the Japanese Garden. That building has been standing since 1934, when the Botanic Garden first opened as the oldest one in Texas, and for a few months this fall it’s going to sit quiet while a full renovation happens inside it.

Why Fort Worth’s Vickery Cafe Still Draws a Line Out the Door

Vickery Cafe has been a Fort Worth breakfast fixture for two decades, and this year it made its first real move, relocating from its longtime spot on Vickery Boulevard to 2421 W 7th Street, Suite 109, in the West 7th district. Chef and owner Curtis James still runs the kitchen the same way he always has: old-school diner bones with a Texas-Cajun streak running through nearly everything on the menu. It’s open daily from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., no separate weekday-versus-weekend split, which means brunch here isn’t a special occasion. It’s just what the place does every single day.

Felina Brings Roman-Style Pizza and a Puerto Rico Backstory to Fort Worth

The wood-fired oven at Felina sits where the brew tanks used to be. That’s the detail that tells you the most about how this restaurant came together. Alessandro and Alfonso Salvatore needed a bigger kitchen for a bigger idea, and the old Funky Picnic Brewery & Cafe space on Bryan Avenue in South Main had the bones for it, so they took an industrial shell and warmed it up until it felt like theirs.

A Food Hall Favorite Grows Up: Beren Meze & Grill House Opens

Charlie Unlu spent more than a decade managing expensive dining rooms — steakhouses, luxury hotels, the Dallas Cowboys organization. He understood restaurants from every angle. What none of those jobs let him do was put his wife Leman’s cooking in front of people.

Her family recipes go back generations in Turkey. They started selling her baklava at farmers markets, built a following, and in early 2025 opened a food hall stall at the Funky Town Food Hall under the name Beren — after their youngest daughter. Fort Worth Magazine called it one of the best new restaurants of the year. It had a waiting list on weekends.

Fort Worth’s Nonna Tata is Festive Year Round

Nonna Tata in Fort Worth makes you want to order everything. The kitchen smells like garlic sizzling in olive oil, tomatoes breaking down into thick, sweet sauces, fresh herbs torn by hand, and bread that’s just come out of the oven, crust crackling and interior soft enough to soak up sauce like it’s meant to.

Rodeo Goat Out Burgers the Rest in DFW

Rodeo Goat has turned burger-making into an art form, stacking their creations with wild combinations that somehow always make sense. The foundation is a half-pound house-ground patty, seared just right and served on a soft, toasted bun. From there, things get wild. The “Sugar Burger” mixes grilled peaches with candied bacon, caramelized onions, and jalapeño jam—sweet, smoky, spicy, and rich all in one bite. The “Terlingua” goes full Texas with house-made chili, shredded cheddar, onion, and corn chips for crunch. The “Telluride” is packed with roasted green chiles, poblano goat cheese, and fried onions, giving it a bold, earthy heat.
