Reata

Fort Worth


The proprietors also own their own cattle ranch, so the sizable steaks are worth their weight. But you might also try the Texas specialties such as tenderloin tamales and jalapeño-cheddar grits. The chicken-fried steak regularly makes bests lists. The rooftop has fabulous views over downtown. The restaurant is named for the ranch at the center of the iconic west Texas movie Giant.
