"When people think of long-standing institutions in Fort Worth, Joe T. Garcia’s is always at the top of the list. This iconic eatery is renowned for its outdoor patio spaces, overall atmosphere, and authentic Tex-Mex cuisine. Joe T. Garcia’s has been open for over a century, which means multiple generations of Fort Worth families have gathered together here to share pitchers of margaritas and choose between the family-style enchiladas and fajitas. Pro-tip for any newcomers: While waiting on a table, send someone to grab a pitcher of margaritas." - Michael Ellington
