Richland High School Class of 1995 recently celebrated our 30th Class Reunion at this incredible restaurant, and I can’t say enough about how amazing the experience was! From the moment we began planning, the staff went above and beyond to help us customize every detail of the event. Their professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made the entire process seamless and enjoyable.

The service was outstanding — attentive without being intrusive, and every team member made our guests feel welcome and cared for. The food was delicious, with a variety of options that pleased over 100 attendees. Everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor.

The venue setup was equally impressive. The ambiance was perfect for a reunion — elegant yet comfortable, with plenty of space for mingling, dining, and celebrating. They even helped tailor the layout and décor to match our class theme, which added a personal touch that everyone appreciated.

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to reconnect and celebrate such a special milestone. Thank you to the entire team for making our reunion unforgettable. Highly recommend for any large gathering or special event!

Best club sandwich in Fort Worth! If you get lucky sit at the bar with Abone! Perfect for watching games and good food! Upscale vibes but plenty of TVs for sports.

Fun spot to watch sports on lots of TVs with friends and family.

Ordered the CFS: thin, tender, easy to cut without a steak knife, it just lacked any flavor. The garlic mashed potatoes were very garlic-y (my fave) but were oh so very salty; the green beans were just too raw for my taste.

My companions ordered lots of different items, the consensus was the main item they ordered was delicious but all the sides were way too salty to eat.

Staff are friendly, it does get loud but we could all hear and talk to each other just fine.

We were a big group and we made a reservation and got seated immediately.

First time here and my hubby and I loved it. We had drinks - beer and Vanilla Royale, Frog Smash, appetizer Spicy Dip Trio -salsa, pimento cheese, queso and we shared a meal recommendation by our server Luis - who was so helpful- the Bayou Pasta with Shrimp- so yummy! Definitely recommend and we will be back! You won’t be disappointed- wish we had room for dessert because they looked delish! Great happy hour!Thanks Luis- ask for him!

One of the best steaks I have had in a while. My waiter recommended the NY Strip and it did not disappoint. The house salad was good and the asparagus was large and perfectly cooked. I didnt like the green beans and didnt eat them. I also ordered a margherita pizza which was on point as well.

I've been here 3 times and loved it more with each visit!

First of all, everything on the menu is fantastic! Definitely get the Korean BBQ wings! They are amazing. The wagyu chicken fried steak was ridiculously good. So savory. I doubled down on my carbs and subbed the green beans out for the mac and cheese and boy was that good!!

This place is an upscale sports bar. Plenty of tvs throughout the place. A massive one on the patio! Also some kid friendly games outside too.

Highly recommend this place to grab a high quality meal or cocktail on its own but if you are looking to check out a sports event as well then look no further!

A diverse range of menu options were on offer, and all the dishes we sampled were superb. In particular, the Italian nachos with shrimp were outstanding, and the short ribs were a standout choice. The cocktail selection was impressive, including top-shelf options. Multiple large TV screens were available for sports viewing, but the dining room also allowed for conversation, making it distinct from your usual sports bar. Joe Lane skillfully curated a welcoming atmosphere and an exciting menu that consistently delivered delicious dishes. Anything associated with Joe Lane never fails to impress.

Just came here for my friend Ana’s birthday dinner. Our server was great, especially as it was pretty hectic since there were 7 of us. We got a bunch of appetizers like the cheese sticks, chicken wings, garlic shrimp, 3 dips, and more. It was all great. For my meal I got the tomahawk pork chop and it was seriously good. I got an old fashioned as well, went great with the pork chop. Love that this has opened up and so close to home. I’ll definitely be back. I met one of the managers Joe as well and he def added to a great experience. All around must try.
