We came in thinking that there were some great specials for Thursday night, only to find out the post I had seen was a fake. Our server took pity on us and gave us the discounted price on my margarita!. We arrived about 5:40 and were about the only customers. The chips were good and the salsa (love the individual bowls!) had just enough bite. Hubby had the chicken fajitas and says they were very good. It came with nice sized sides of rice and beans. I had the sour cream chicken enchiladas with rice and they were REALLY good- the sauce had great taste and the rice was fluffy and flavorful. The frozen margarita initially tasted of mix, but it grew on me the further down the glass I got. Haha! Service was good, but the ambience was a little lacking.

This one of a kind family owned restaurant has everything you would Love in a restaurant. Outdoor patios full bar and great food like grandma used to make. In the heart of downtown Fort Worth located at 1301 E. Bluff St., Fort Worth, TX 76102

Keto Plate 1/2 order - avocados, pico, shrimp

Never had bad food here, although one time the red sauce on cheese enchiladas was a puddle of grease. The margarita mix is sometimes inconsistent on what they charge you, for example every time I go the "large" margarita is in a different cup. Check out my other pic of keto stuffed avocados and the margarita glass was the old school shape. I love schooner margs or I suppose pint glasses. Salsa is amazing here, but service is usually slow, they had 2 waitresses for the entire place last time I went on a weekend. Drink refills will be slow, my friend was charged the same price for a frozen margarita in a tiny clear solo cup as me getting a bigger one on the rocks in a fancy glass. They host Lotería on Saturday nights now. This place is in an old house so the ambience is a house with wooden tables in a converted living room or something, plenty of space on their new patio / deck out front and on the side of the building too! Pretty large seating capacity!

Chicken enchiladas!

Saturday afternoon with the fam and it's National Margarita Day--we need margaritas! Instead of choosing one of the many big, well-known Tex-Mex restaurants, we decided to try Tia's for a first time visit. The restaurant is located in the childhood home of the owner, Linda C across the street from Cowtown Brewery. There's a cute dining area adjacent to the front door. As you enter, to the left there's a bar area with high top tables and chairs. The main dining area feels like you're in Linda's home--comfortable and relaxing. The wait staff are very friendly and attentive. As a matter of fact, Linda was our server for the day. I had the chicken enchiladas verde with the fixings and a cold Modelo. Wife and daughter both had salads--one steak and one chicken. My enchiladas were delicious--just enough cheese and sauce. Cooked to perfection. The salads were described as very good. As a special treat, Linda graciously spoke with us about her family--many that work there with her as well as her memories of growing up in the neighborhood. We really enjoyed her stories as she made us feel like one of the family. We are definitely coming back to enjoy the food and great fellowship! Soon the backyard stage and tequila bar will be in full swing once Spring arrives in the Town of the Cow.

Mother & I at Tia's On The Bluff.  I miss her dearly, she passed away on 10MAY2023.

It is in a terrible location with no parking except on the street. The food and staff were not good. I do not recommend this place.

Walked in around 6ish on a Sunday night. I wish I recalled the name of the bartender that night but…read morehe was very kind and I could tell he prioritized a good experience for each guest that was there. I noticed him making sure each drink he put out was of good quality while still maintaining polite conversation with each guest. I was visiting just for the weekend so wanted to taste the best of Fort Worth before Ieft and I sure did here. I got the El Diablo and it was the perfect aperitif for me- light, bright, and gave me just the right amount of buzz. The library interior really transports you away from what's outside. I would have liked to experience the speakeasy that night but unfortunately it wasn't open on Sunday so just make sure you check in advance if you want to do that.

Came here for the Murder Mystery at Thompson's event, and even though we didn't end up solving the…read morecrime, it made for such a fun, festive night out. The premise of the event was super engaging. We got to mingle with suspects, search for clues, and try to figure out "whodunnit" while exploring the venue. One of the best parts about Thompson's is the venue itself. The experience spans across all four distinct floors (from the main speakeasy level up to the cigar lounge), and each floor has its own unique vibe and personality that made hunting for clues even more entertaining. As for the drinks, the whiskey sour was top-notch. It hit the spot while we were busy playing detective. The bar was kept fairly clean throughout the night. The employees were super friendly, and kept the drinks flowing smoothly despite the event crowd. We were able to grab some street parking nearby, but if you can't find a spot right out front, there are plenty of paid parking lots in the immediate area. I highly recommend keeping an eye out for their special events!

Fiance and i walked were exploring and walked past an oddly placed and weirdly small laundromat…read morebefore realizing that there is no way this just a tiny random laundromat. We poke our heads in (accidentally going through the exit door. the front door is well camouflaged) and just found a wonderful very chilled out bar. Haven't been to a speakeasy in a long time. It was dark lighting with ambient black lights and string lights to keep it dim but you wont struggle to see through. Music was not super loud and the chairs were incredibly comfortable and the whole place was laid out to just have drinks and lounge while talking with friends. No food, which is fine. You have plenty of options on the same block for that. This place is just for drinks and conversation. The seasonal menu was awesome. It iss a bar so they of course can make anything you request if you don't want a specialty cocktail. I got my favorite, a moscow mule but they had a brazilian mule on the specialty menu. I never had that before and ordered it on the spot. It was grapefruit vodka with lime, lots of fine pellett nugget ice (the really good kind) with ginger beer and condensed milk. My god it was great, they told me how they made it because i never saw milk added to this before. It was a delicious limeade that almost was slushy like, creamy and with tangy vodka. Plus they actually served it in a proper copper mug. Best mixed drink ive had period and a cool twist on my favorite standard moscow mule. The place is now going to become a frequent haunt for us. Its very laid back, relaxed, with fantastic ambiance. It doesn't get jammed packed and is not meant to get wild in. We went there around 7pm on a friday night with about 8 or so others already there with their drinks. It did pick up later with 15-20 people in there but still spacious and comfortable. It genuinely was just a nice bar to have drinks and conversations with friends. Nice music that isn't too loud so you can talk with normal voice levels. The bartenders we had were super nice and charismatic. The drinks were not expensive, a respectable 13 bucks for my mule. If you have a bill over 40 dollars they automatically add 20% gratuity to it so keep that in mind when you are tipping. And after 8pm everything had 20% gratuity added to the bill. But the service is so damn good that you will probably still want to tip on top of that anyways. I loved it so much i actually made a yelp account just to post a review. TLDR super cool speakeasy type joint, cool aesthetics and laundry theme. Not loud, good for drinks and chit chat, cool well crafted specialty cocktails that don't break the bank. Good bartenders. Good times. Cozy seats that encourage you to hang out and talk even with folks you haven't met before and dim without being dark lighting. Clean bathroom too and quick charismatic service. Hit this place up for sure even just for the novelty of it. It was a wonderful surprise bar for a date night. Pro tip for this area in general. all paid parking, some place validates some do not, i am unsure if they do here but there is paid parking right out front and also a paid lot literally across the street. But i don't even bother. About a block and a half away northeast is a big shopping complex with a target. i just park there for free and walk. its a short nice walk and doesn't cost 20 bucks.

Super late review as it's been quite some time since I visited Dirty Laundry, but it's still a spot…read morethat stands out. Highlights: Super fun speakeasy-style entrance Small interior, but the seating is arranged really well for different group sizes and feels surprisingly comfortable I don't recall them offering food during my visit, but the bartenders were friendly and were able to make a great mocktail Surrounded by different eateries, so it's easy to grab food nearby before or after drinks Easy parking, which is always a plus (street or parking garage nearby)
