Came for a pasta making class which i highly recommend cost is $60 per person. Was a great experience. We had an amazing waitress in Annamarie who recommended the best drinks and wine pairings with our pasta we made. It was a great setup to be as intimate or socialize as much as you'd like. They taught us how to make pasta and gnocchi from scratch and also sent us home with our dough and some sauce and noodles to cook later ourselves I highly recommend the calamari and brussel sprouts. The calamari was fried perfectly very light but still had the crunch and the crispy sprouts were crispy and had a phenomenal taste with the Parmesan cheese read more

The food we had was good. We ordered meatballs and calamari as appetizers, unfortunately our waitress forget to ring it in and we waited for our appetizers for a while. She brought us nice bread while we waited for our appetizers. I ordered salmon as my entree and my friend ordered scallops both were very good. It was a cool place but service is lacking at this establishment, but the food quality was very good. read more

I've never had to salt to a pizza before, but I did tonight. Thankfully I had tobasco sauce in my purse so I could add flavor to the flavorless margarita pizza. The cheese just kept pulling off in a huge chunk on every slice with every bite and it became super messy and awkward to eat. I sat at the bar and ordered my pizza and a glass of wine at the same time. The wine never came and the bartender was making cocktails for everyone sitting around me, some who had just walked in, but I continued to wait. My pizza arrived and still no glass of wine. I asked the server who ran the pizza to me to bring my missing glass of wine and she did. When the bill came I was charged for 2 glasses. The bartender looked at me like I might be fibbing when I told him I was charged for 2 but only had 1. He did take it off the bill, at least. I love staying at this hotel, but won't eat at the restaurant again. read more

Incredible. Service was the best, I was at the bar, the bartender was a hoot. Could easily be his own show. The food was stunning. Italian staples but also some dishes with a twist. I got the. Stuffed papadelle. It was soooo good. The flavors were so complex. The asparagus with pistachio was also delicious. read more

Loved it again. This is our second time here. As luck would have it, Patrick was our server again. He's super friendly and knows the menu well. He got our drinks, then a basket of warm bread with a plate of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Yummy! There were three of us tonight. We ordered as follows: - Capellini with Seafood - Branzino with Garlic Spinach (shared) - Il Modo Chopped Salad Wow - the food was amazing tonight. My wife and I shared the Branzino. It was a huge portion and real tasty. My son had the Capellini with Seafood and loved it. I tried it as well. Loved the spicy sauce. Then we ordered dessert. Here's what we shared: - Stratacelli Gelato - Tiramisu - Cannolis Wow - they were all good. I liked the Tiramisu the best. Note: they keep it well air conditioned here. Consider a light jacket or sport coat. We will return to Il Modo. Thank you kitchen team and Patrick for another great dinner. read more

I found this place while looking for a pre-show meal at bass hall. This was some of the best pasta I have had. Our server was super nice and helpful with what we should get. The meatballs were the only thing that were just okay. I honestly am still thinking about that linguine pasta with shrimp. If you need a delicious meal in the area, Il Modo is amazing and worth a try. read more

It's so rare these days to find a great hotel-attached restaurant in a nice hotel that still has an affordable brunch menu. Il Modo at the Kimpton in Downtown Fort Worth is that rare find! Sunday brunch doesn't limit you to just the breakfast menu, so if you want a more substantial meal, go for it. Hubby had the Steak and eggs. It comes with their roasted potatoes, but he was able to substitute avocado. I got their burrata appetizer with sourdough slices and this delicious cherry compote along with their roasted Brussels Sprouts. They roast pearl onions in with the Sprouts and it kicks it up a notch or two. Our server, I believe her name was Faith, was definitely a busy woman, but she always made the time to check in and get us the things we needed. Valet parking is available for $10 with a stamp from the restaurant and they were quick even with us being there at hotel check out time. We'll definitely be back. read more

Food: the calamari was really good with the dipping sauce not sure what the cream sauce was but it was good. The marinara sauce has a kick to it. The arugula and the peppers that it came with were so good. I had the brunch pizza. It wasn't bad but wasn't great a little on the saltier side. Service: they took care of us. Ambience: nice place had a bar more of a lounge vibe. I would try to go back again. read more

The service here is so great! Our server was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu and made this visit a great birthday experience. We got the Tuscan sunset and the il lago for our drinks. Both 10/10. The meatballs were soft and flavorful and the sauce had a nice little kick. We got the sea food capellini which was also great. It came with clams, shrimp, and calamari and made for a great combo. We also got a tiramisu and you could really taste the espresso in it which I loved. It was over all a great experience down to the food and service. This did not affect my experience just adding a tip for parking! If you are doing vallet, tell them 20 minutes before you leave to retrieve the car especially on a weekend because you might have to wait a while. There are also many walkable parking spots near by as well. read more

We only went here for breakfast, as it was included in our room at the hotel that we booked with IHG rewards. It was the best "free breakfast " we've had in a long time, everything was high quality and flavorful and there were so many options! My husband loved the Benedict so much he had it both days. I had steak and eggs one day and another time the full breakfast. The best breakfast potatoes I have ever had! Also excellent service, really pleasant servers all around. read more

Linguine Carbonara! Legit AMAZING. Pasta was SUPER FRESH. The Burrata was delicious. I do prefer it with tomato and basil, but the fruit is an interesting twist. My server was perfect. Very polite and just the right amount of attentive. The interior is chic, clean, modern. Because it's downtown, parking is a challenge. I went on a Monday and parked about a block away at a meter and strolled 6 minutes to the front door. I've added this to my top two Italian restaurants in Fort Worth. read more

Dined for breakfast, the meal was mediocre and the service was so so. I had two eggs anyway, bacon, potatoes and an English muffin.

We ate lunch here after the Cowtown half marathon. What meal could be better than pasta after racing 13.1 miles? We ate meatballs, which were cooked perfectly and had a very tasty marinara sauce with fresh basil and grated parmesan cheese as an appetizer. For our lunch, two of us had rigatoni, which was very good, and I had the linguine carbonara. The pasta is cooked al dente, the sauce is tasty, and none of us could complain. Very good Italian fare. As for service, the staff were attentive and the pacing of the meal was appropriate for a Sunday afternoon. Highly recommend coming here. The atmosphere is upscale, but not stuffy. read more

My lady and I were feeling in the mood for Italian and decided to come here, as it was close to where we live and seemed to have good reviews. We were both very pleasantly surprised. The drinks were very good and the service was top notch. As a New Yorker who has been on the search for a good pizza since moving to Texas several years ago, I think the pizza left much to be desired, but that's okay. The meatballs were excellent and the veal cheek was exceptional. Overall would definitely recommend and we will be back. read more

Il Modo is small but nice and cozy little restaurant. We went on Valentine's Day so both the kitchen and the bar were backed up and slow. The server was very nice and professional. We started with crispy calamari and grilled octopus and they were the stars on the evening. They were delicious. We ordered braised short rib, Pappardelle, and diver scallop risotto. The short rib and Pappardelle were under seasoned. The diver scallop risotto was slightly undercooked. The food was good but just few problems. It was a lovely night out for Valentine's Day. read more

My granddaughter is visiting and I wanted her to see some of Fort Worth so we walked around near Sundance Square. She wanted Italian and found il Modo in the Kimpton Harper hotel. It was a short walk down a lovely street. Lunch on this Saturday wasn't busy so we were seated right away. I tried the Aperol Spritz $11 and it was really nice. We shared some calamari $18 (not real tasty but not overly bland) and Meatballs $16 (larger than I expected and a little too much sauce, which is better than dry). I loved the seating. I prefer to sit in a booth but my granddaughter grabbed it. My seat was so comfortable that I didn't mind it a bit! We could see a bit of the street out the windows, really nice. She ordered a margherita pizza $15 but it seemed each time she tried to pick up a slice, all the toppings came off, so it was a little clumsy to eat but she enjoyed the flavors. We each enjoyed dessert - I had the cannoli $9. It was good and the fruit served with it was fresh. She ordered the creme brulee $10 and I had a taste - yum! The custard was lovely and the topping crusted perfectly. I appreciate a little more attention when a restaurant isn't busy and our server checked on us often. I believe even the manager passed by and asked how everything was. So I have to give this visit 5 stars - they checked all my boxes for good food, good service and a nice atmosphere. I live in Dallas, I need to check if we have an il Modo here! read more

Located on the ground floor of the Kimpton Harper hotel, this restaurant gave me the cafe vibe more than a restaurant. I've only had the chance to have breakfast there but their menu includes brunch items. I ordered the Il Modo Frittata. Was worried about the goat cheese --- if it would have a lot of it, but was assured by the server that it's not overpowering and she was right! I actually liked this dish a lot! It had that sweet taste from the squash and savory from the goat cheese. The goat cheese was served crumbled on top, so you can pick it out if you don't want too much of it (or you could probably ask the kitchen to serve it on the side). All the ingredients worked well together so don't dismiss goat cheese if you haven't tried it. The sage added a nice finishing taste to the frittata. Served with roasted potatoes. Staff were friendly. Service was a bit slow, but I wasn't in a hurry that morning so all good. read more

Went here on a date night. It was in the heart of downtown Fort Worth. The good and the dr drinks did not disappoint. We got the cocktails the Italian and the and the Tuscan sunrise and both dreams were very tasty for an appetizer. We got the meatballs that were very juicy and the sauce had a perfect taste and sweetness to it for the mail. We split the half roast of chicken and got a side of brussels sprouts. This was by far some of the best food. I've eaten here in the United States. Aside from going to Italy. The chicken was very tinder and had a nice compliment of pine nuts and a leafy vegetable underneath that was seasoned perfectly. The sauce on the chicken itself was a mixture of savory and sweet. The brussels sprouts were very tinder and had a delicious balsamic glaze that just melted in your mouth the whole meal It was like heaven in my mouth. It was worth every penny we paid read more

We had an outstanding breakfast at Il Modo. Hubby ordered the Il Modo breakfast and I tried a piece of his bacon. Soooo good. I ordered the shakshuka and Tuscan potatoes. Both were amazing!

I really like the atmosphere and think it would be a great place for date night and dinner. read more

We came here mainly for convenience since we were staying at the Harper which is attached to the restaurant. We started out with the Calamari and Meatballs, we've had better calamari elsewhere, it honestly sounded good, but kind of regretted ordering it. The meatballs on the other had were delicious. The sauce was so fresh and they were so tender! By the time we ready ready to order any entrees, I had already been close to being full, so my husband and I shared the Branzino and got a side of potatoes and some kale which isn't pictured. The fish was good, I enjoyed it a lot, my husband wasn't too keen on it. The potatoes were a little bit of a miss for me, it was overly salty and needed a little more time to cook. I love the side of kale though. We also got some Tiramisu to take back to our room, and just like the calamari, I've had better elsewhere. Plus it just seemed like it was a bit sloppy when it came to boxing it up. read more

Overall our experience was great! The staff was wonderful and our waiter Henry was fabulous! Beautiful space and lovely decor! The espresso martini was very well balanced and smooth!

This was a terrific find in downtown Fort Worth. We went in with our daughter and husband and loved our experience. It is an eclectic interior, very tasteful but simple. Ryan our server was exceptional--we wanted time with our drinks to talk initially and he was very nice to give it to us but check in appropriately from time to time. The food was fantastic! We had salmon, a pasta dish and two orders of the short ribs, which was Ryan's Suggestion. The dishes came out piping hot and all three recipes were wonderful. The short rib dish and its accompanying gravy was as good as I have ever had. The only point that I had was that the restaurant was too cold upon entering. I was bothered enough about it to walk up to Chris the manager and he took steps to adjust immediately. I would highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning soon! read more

This place was delicious! We came in here on a Saturday night no reservations but luckily there were 2 seats at the bar. We ordered the pork belly and mussel to start both were fantastic. The pork belly melted in our mouths and the broth the mussels were in was spicy, but so good. We decided to split the main course so we had the trottole pasta with spicy sausage and spinach, also delicious. The service was good at the bar and our server was helpful, knowledgeable of the menu and nice. Even though it's part of a hotel it felt more like a stand alone restaurant and a great ambiance. We will be coming back. read more

Nestled in the heart of downtown, this Italian restaurant promises an authentic culinary experience. While food largely lived up to expectations, the experience was marred by slow service that tested the limits of our patience. We were greeted by the host and had to wait even though we had a reservation to celebrate my birthday. Upon being seated, we sat well over 12 mins before our server made introductions. We ordered two chopped salads, devoured the bread, share the raviolo and the calabrese pizza. While our server was very nice and continuously updated us and apologized, it was just very slow, and the restaurant wasn't even packed. The table next to us and the table beside it was dirty most of our dining experience and wasn't bussed or flipped for a new party. I was not a fan of the seating at all. I felt like I was dining with a random family instead of a private table. Despite the slow service, the staff's friendly demeanor and the quality of the food somewhat mitigated our frustration. If you're willing to exercise some patience for the sake of a great meal, this downtown spot is worth a visit. read more

CANNOT RECOMMEND. THIS IS YOUR WARNING. My wife & I had dinner 2/21/26. We were staying at the Kimpton Harper, celebrating a wedding anniversary. The dinner was terrible. The food was cheap & very much not fresh. Overpriced big time. And I'm trying hard to be kind. It's clear the management seeks to fleece the tourist crowd because no local would visit more than once. And shame on the Kimpton Harper for promoting this place. I'll also never stay there again. read more

We went to il Modo before seeing a show at Bass Hall. The location is perfect for a nice dinner before going to the theatre. The ambience is really nice and would make for a good date night spot. I ordered the burrata appetizer and a side of brussel sprouts for my entree. The burrata was delicious, but I would not order the sprouts again. They were a little too salty and soggy. Our server was polite and efficient and was happy to offer suggestions, but otherwise gave us space to enjoy our meal. I'd come back to il Modo again! read more

The service was really good which is why I'm giving the overall review 2 stars but I was not impressed with the food or the drinks. We had the meatballs and the sauce on them and the pasta tasted funny and left a weird almost rubbery feeling in my mouth.

Is this place bad? No! It tastes decent. Is this place good? Eh. I paid $42 for an incredibly salty and mid tasting salmon dish that gave me stomach pain. I paid $16 dollars for 3 small sized meatballs that had the equivalent taste of something I could buy at Costco. Service was not bad. Service was eh. Waited 45 min for food with minimal checkups from the waiter. Not bad but not good. The place is not bad. The ambience is decent. Location is great. But at the end of the day, they are charging prices that are a complete joke for the eh quality of food and eh service. Do not come here unless you like paying 50% more for "eh". read more

Surprised to see some lesser stars here because we had a great dinner experience tonight. It started with valet who were prompt and so kind - one of the guys walked me all the way to the door with his umbrella because mine wouldn't open. Pretty quiet around 5 on Friday so we had a peaceful seating. Our hostess was so sweet and our server Ryan really made the entire night. He was so kind and positive, had the best energy and truly the best recommendations. The bread was simple and the olive oil and balsamic glaze were a great way to kick off the meal. We started with the octopus which came with the crispiest potatoes and garnishes. It was charred to perfection and seasoned just as well. For entrees, we split the swordfish and agnolotti. Both were to die for. The fish was so tender and the mushrooms were so flavorful. The pasta - while different sizes - was cooked perfectly al dente and the sauce was so buttery and lemony. We ended the meal with the cannoli and it was absolutely fantastic. Tons of chocolate, berries and sauce to seal the deal. The filling was amazing and included plenty mini chocolate chips. We were so full by this point - we couldn't have another bite. The restrooms weren't stocked with enough paper so that kind of surprised me but the restaurant itself was so beautiful and well decorated - they matched the vibe in every other room as well. Valet took quite a bit longer on our way out as dinner service started to amp up and hotel guests started rolling in to check in. Otherwise, everything was perfect and I cannot wait to come back and try some different things. read more

Dined here on a Thursday, walked in at 730pm without a rez while staying at the Harper Hotel. Greeted and seated immediately. Service was great, as was food. They have a few vegetarian options, which were good. I had the risotto with scallops, which was excellent. Would dine here again. read more

Service is always great! If you're looking for a good snack and a happy hour thing this is yours. If you're looking to dine this is not by all means a quality/value at all. A salad with grilled chicken the side of a side butter plate for 23$ is not by all means something a diner should look for.i feel bad cause I liked this place but they shoot themselves in the leg with a greedy management and a low output!

Best and most friendly service (thank you Jess)! We originally tried the top floor of the Klimpton, but there was very little food, so we went back to Il Modo at street level. The menu has a little of everything Italian, so we ventured in. Wine list has great selection, from ultra top Italian and Spanish to well-priced Malbecs. We ordered the Red Schooner and really enjoyed it! For food, their bread is soft and flavorful, and offered with a balsamic and olive oil dip. We ordered the Gnocci (highly recommended), the maffaldini (came out salty the first time but Jesse immediately took it back and had it re-made.) Also ordered the Brussels Sprouts which are well seasoned and cooked. For dessert Jesse recommended the cannoli and they were perfect! Ask for Jesse by name, and you will have impeccable service! Hoping to come back soon!! read more
