A great place to have home cooked meals' home town people and atmosphere. It's my favorite place to when I am in Fort Worth.

This is such a cute little spot!!! I am so happy I stopped in here on my way through Dallas. To start you walk in and are greeted by a very nice lady and older man. They immediately sat me and asked me what I wanted to drink. Then my very friendly waitress Luisa came and gave me the full run down on the menu. I decided to do the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and the broccoli and rice casserole. My favorite thing was the broccoli and rice casserole. It was so yummy and the corn bread was incredibly moist!! Everything was a 5/5. The service. The food. The ambiance. I will 100% be back if I come through the area and would highly recommend it! read more

~02-08-26~Ft Worth, TX Came here with family and luckily someone in the group called in for reservations. Once we all arrived outside the restaurant, we were welcomed in by a very kind gentleman. After we were all seated, the sweetest server Olga quickly took our drink orders and returned for our food orders. It took a minute for everyone in our group to decide. This place was packed and booming. The majority of our group went with Chicken Fried Steak, mashed potatoes, and numerous different sides. I had a side salad with ranch. It's was huge and I shared it with the GRANDdaughters. This place was serving both breakfast and lunch, and seems to have a great following with the locals. Olga took amazing care of us and was very attentive to all her tables. The food was a hit with everyone. Enormous plates full of food we definitely needed to-go boxes. Do not leave because the parking lot is full, there is plenty of ample parking with a waiting area inside. It's a long drive from Oklahoma, lol, but I hope to return soon. #FtWorthTexas #TarrantCounty read more

Been a long time since I've been here. I was shocked when I walked in and saw the renovation that was done inside. I had mixed feelings walking in. Was kind of sad to see that the original inside had been updated to today's current country style but the decor was done tastefully. There were a lot of pictures taken off all the walls and you could still see the screws were they had not put them back but there are still a lot of old photos. Now onto the food. To start I wanted to try the new sampler they had on the menu. For 12 dollars, I don't feel like I paid for the cost. It came with 2 mozzarella sticks, 2 tater keg bites, 4 small onion rings, and 2 mac and cheese balls. The mozzarella sticks were the best on the sampler. Wish I had just had an order of those honestly. For my entree, I got breakfest #3. That consisted of 3 eggs i got scrambled, 4 slices of bacon, and pancakes. Oh was I in the mood for some good pancakes and they were delicious. I also ordered a side of sourdough toast and biscuits with gravy. I was kind of disappointed with the biscuits and gravy. Was a tiny biscuit and thought it would have been home made but could totally tell it was a Pillsbury biscuit. Not sure if they ran out and had that as a back up but the biscuit was dry and thin. The rest of my breakfest good was delightful. Service was also really friendly and she stayed on top of the drinks. I knkw I'll be back to get there breakfast again. read more

Westside Cafe is amazing! They have never compromised on old-fashioned value and service. Their food is always cooked to order and absolutely delicious! The staff are always on top of their game in making sure each table feels special, regardless of how busy the restaurant is. The ambiance is of a diner from years gone by...a pocket of time from the good old days. Yesterday I dropped off two military pictures of family to be hung on their wall of honor. In wanting to make full use of the trip out there, I stayed for a late breakfast. The three buttermilk pancakes were huge! The syrup bottles are kept warm and made a great addition to the butter already applied. The biscuits and gravy were a nice way to complete the meal. Wow! I waddled out to the car after finishing all my food. Alicia, my server, was a joy to have take care of me. Please support Westside Cafe! read more

Bring your grandma and go have some home cooked food. Make sure you try this long time staple of the west side of Fort Worth. It was bought by a company after some struggles the previous owner had but they kept up the decor, which makes the place what it is. No lie, his place is like coming home. The memories here warms my heart. I think my favorite is the grilled pork chops or the liver and onions. Back when I could eat bread I'd get the club sandwich. The ranch is homemade. Don't forget to try the desserts. The wait staff will keep up with all you need and have all the answers. There is always someone around and I'm pretty sure they all help one another. LOVE HIS PLACE. read more

Stopped in here for breakfast today. This is the first time I've walked into a restaurant and said "This place has had a deep cleaning and you can tell." The food was fantastic! The place was really busy for 8am too. Had with a #1 and then smoked sausage, biscuit, 3 scrambled eggs and a pancake. The eggs were perfectly cooked and the biscuit was fantastic! The smoked sausage was also delicious and had a great smokey flavor. This was a fantastic experience and can't wait to try this place again. read more

I've been a customer here for 15 years. Just what I thought it couldn't get any better, it took a giant step forward. I believe, since the new ownership took over, this restaurant has gone from great to perfect in its class. Nice, clean building with good, efficient service. The decor is now updated and fresh. The daily lunch specials are not to be overlooked! Today, I'm feasting on the Friday deal: my choice of sides includes turnip greens and squash casserole, two of my favorites. Beef tips and noodles are made with real prime beef and absolutely just like your grandma would've made! Finish that with cornbread, and you are off to the races! Unsweet Arnold Palmer, and I am a happy camper! read more

Perfect and quintessential diner experience! Great coffee and pancakes and bacon cooked as per my request extra crispy!

The restaurant was very busy but the wait was only like 5 minutes! The employees were more than just workers... they actually put off the family vibe. You don't get just one server there... they are all for one and one for all there, total teamwork here!! Now let's get down to the food!! It was absolutely freaking delicious and amazing!! Their chicken from steak and their scrambled eggs were the best that we ever had!!( and I'm a VERY picky eater foodie the same cooks have been there for over 20 years so the food is consistently good. Definitely recommend them!! We plan on making this a regular place!! And Monica was so precious!! read more

I have lived in the Fort Worth area for over 15 years. Not sure why we have never been to West Side Cafe before now. We have really missed out not coming sooner. On entering the restaurant you are greeted with a wall of pictures honoring those who have served in the military. What a nice tribute. It appears the restaurant interior has recently gone through a remodel. The new look is modern and inviting. Everyone working was warm and friendly. I immediately liked the place. The food was excellent. My husband had the chicken fried steak and eggs breakfast. Cooked perfectly. I wasn't in the mood for breakfast and asked if I could get the "Big Ol' Bowl of Pinto Beans" and cornbread. Definitely big and really delicious. Most lunch items are not available until 10:45, but if you ask, some items are available earlier. I also asked for a side of fruit. This is not on their menu as it is a new addition. Surprisingly nice mix of fresh fruit all with good flavor. When in need of a great meal, nice atmosphere, and friendly people, West Side Cafe is a great option. read more

This is a cute cafe on the west side of Fort Worth. The parking is decent since it is in a shopping center. This place looks like it was built back in the 70s, but it is very spacious. They serve brunch and lunch, and everything that we saw looked great, and everything we ate was delicious. When we walked in, we were greeted. Make sure if you are meeting someone there, they are on time because they won't seat you until your whole party is there. As we were shown to our table all the staff spoke and welcomed us and even some of the regular customers said hello. Our waitress came and got our drink orders and answered our questions about the menu. I got the pancakes, they are huge and tasty. The syrup was watery to me, and the pancakes soaked them up, but once I added enough, I got some in every bite. I got the hashbrowns. They had lots of butter in them, probably why they tasted so good. I also got a side of bacon, and you get 4 pieces, so you will be full when you leave, but you will have some money left in your pocket because the prices were very reasonable. Go check them out! read more

What a great diner! I hope that's ok to use that term, it is used affectionately! Great service, a varied menu and some oatmeal cake that is intriguing and delicious! read more

The food's great no matter what you order, and everyone inside is incredibly nice. I feel like I'm dopamine maxing by being there.

For the best meatloaf in the Metroplex you need to visit Westside Cafe in Fort Worth for lunch on any Tuesday, Thursday, or Saturday. Meatloaf is spiced just enough to add wonderful flavor. The sauce is an actual tomato and onion sauce that adds even more flavor. Don't be afraid of the onion. Not overpowering. The mashed potatoes are real potatoes like your mother made. I always ask for sauce on the potatoes. The greens are as good as my grandmother served. The cornbread may be better than any down south cornbread. You can't miss eating here. It don't wait too long. They close at 3:00 pm and it's not unusual for them to run out of meatloaf .... it's that good. One more thing. Don't forget dessert. You won't be disappointed. read more

It was Saturday morning and there were no cartoons to watch. Lol. My neighbor wanted a good breakfast from this place and I've have not been for breakfast so, I decided to go with him. I drove into the Parking lot and it was already packed. I walked in and there was already a crowd waiting for there table. Also, you cannot reserve a table if you party is unavailable. We were seated very quickly despite the crowd. We had a great waitress. She wore a Pink West Side Tshirt. She said, a girl that used to work there made them. She said, she loved it because, she didn't have to wear so much Black and White. She was so nice, after she delivered are food, she said, " Can I get y'all anything else?" in a cute Texas accent. She was on top of her game. She always came to our table to check on drinks. I ordered a Biscuit and gravy . I added a piece of Sausage. My biscuit was Fluffy, soft and fell apart quickly. Gravy was warm with lots of Black Pepper.The Sausage was piping hot and small. Overall, it was a humble breakfast. In Conclusion, the breakfast was something you can make yourself but, the service was spectacular! You will have to see for yourself when you eat here. read more

The food was mediocre at best. Chicken fried steak had a hard crust and no flavor. The white gravy was probably a package mix as it too had limited flavor. The salad with ranch dressing was good. Service was good. Overpriced for packaged run of the mill food. Second time I've had bland food, not sure if I'll try again. It use to be good diner food. read more

West Side Cafe is a step back in time and we were very pleased. We were warmly greeted at the door, seated quickly (even though we were busy), and had our order taken within a few minutes. The portions were nice, prices were reasonable, and the wait staff was attentive. We sat at the counter and were very impressed with how all staff interacted. They were polite, smiling, and helping one another- something that was so noticeable that I thought about it after we left. It would be harder to get a table for a larger group if you came during peak times but worth the wait if you want the old fashioned diner experience. A good spot for a homemade meal! read more

Came from Cali to visit my son and new Grandson. Found this place and thought I would give it a try. Was amazed on the amount of cars in the lot. It was Sun am so it was expected. As a party of three we didn't even have to wait 5 min. The menu has everything so choices were open. We ordered AND received our food extremely fast. I went with the country fried steak and eggs with biscuit and gravy. Next time I will go with the regular steak (med-rare) and eggs. Now for my only complaint. The gravy was ok but a little bland but maybe it was the batch? Will I go back oh heck yeah. You have to hand it to all the people working there. They were all moving with the speed of light and the nicest people. I wonder how their pancakes are? I dunno but will find out this week. To the owners. Your workers here are fantastic so don't let them go. read more

Everyone was super polite and very friendly. The food was fast and super hot. My waitress was amazing!! I will say it's a bit pricey for what I got. I think my bill for a standard chicken fried steak breakfast and coffee was $22.00 no tip added. Also they have this amazing tribute for the military and veterans when you walk in. There was a lot of older veterans there eating when I came in. However they offer No Military Discount? Not sure the why when it's so close to a base and a large amount of Customers are Veterans. read more

Been coming here for a long time. I really like everything about this place. The staff is friendly, the decor is homey, and the food is great. It also travels really well if you want to get a take-out order. I used to come here with my last girlfriend before we split up. We loved getting their breakfast foods for dinner. Now I tend to only come here for take-out because my mom likes their catfish and I really enjoy the chicken fried steak. If you're in this part of town, West Side should be on your rotation of great diners to visit often. Good food, priced fairly, from good people. What's not to like? read more

I didn't see Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs on the menu so I asked. My waitress was nice enough to tell me she could make that happen. The eggs also came out as soft scrambled. I had failed to tell her that when I ordered. She must have read my mind because they came out just like I prefer them!! No complaints from me. I had read about this place in the Fort Worth Star Telegram. Since I was in the area I decided to give it a try. I'll have to try Lucille's next. It was in the same article. I've been driving by it for years. I'll stop by soon. I'm usually on my way to Kincaid's and it's difficult to stop by Lucille's. I'll have to look away from Kincaid's !! read more
