Wonderful resturants experience! The food and drinks were delicious! The atmosphere is fun, but it is very loud in there. We still had a great meal and conversation though.

Living in Fort Worth I’ve probably said other favorite restaurants have the best steaks, but the bone in Rib Eye at 97 West is my new favorite. My wife also thought her Prime Rib end cut was tops along with the Cesar Salad. My steak will be two more meals. The host and hostesses were nice and our server Lacey was tops. What a great dining experience.

97 West is conveniently located about one block from the Stockyards Exchange Avenue. Food and service are outstanding. However on a recent visit, the noise level was some where between State Fair and Bus Station level. It was impossible to hear others at a table for four. We saw other couples depart before ordering which is what we should have done. A large party was seated in the middle of one of the dining rooms and the noise level was atrocious. After our dinner was served we were offered an opportunity to move but at that point we only wanted to leave the restaurant. We get an "I am sorry" from the manager. My last visit.

12 years in service industry its rare to receive the level of service my family received from our server Christy (forgive the spelling) but definitely with a C. Anyway she was fantastic on every level. Had us return every morning of our trip. Had other servers but overall she was the best. Food was next level but would love to see the ribeye and eggs on weekend menu. Thank you for being one of the culinary highlights and best service of our trip.

Had a great experience around 97 West Kitchen & Bar and the Hotel Drover area in the Fort Worth Stockyards. The entire area has an amazing Texas cowboy atmosphere, with beautiful Western-style architecture and a really unique vibe. One of my favorite parts was the four-horse statue just a short walk from 97 West — such a great photo spot and definitely worth stopping for pictures. 🐎📸 The location is especially nice for experiencing the historic Stockyards atmosphere. If you're visiting Fort Worth and want some memorable Texas-themed photos and a taste of the cowboy culture, this area is definitely worth visiting! Great location, beautiful surroundings, and excellent photo opportunities. Highly recommended!

Ridiculous policies and plain insufferable staff. Visiting the stockyards for some family fun and brunch. The place had some good reviews but these kind of actions are really backwards and plain discriminatory. We stood in line and waited to get a table just to be told they were holding back and only giving out tables to guests of the hotel. If that’s the case then don’t advertise as a public restaurant and make people waste their time. Spoke to a lady who claimed to be the director of the place and boy did she have an attitude and no will whatsoever to help or reason. Y’all gotta understand it’s called the service industry for a reason. You don’t want non-guests walking in then close the doors and get off the restaurant options on google.

One of my absolute favorite places to have lunch with a friend. Great weekday lunch spot! The atmosphere is always perfect for some good conversation and catching up. The ambiance is really set by the intentional decor of the place. The decor is so well done. The attention to detail with everything they’ve selected is so appreciated. From the reclaimed wood ceiling, to colorful tiled floors, the etched glass drink-ware, and even the bespoke bill holder when they bring you the bill are just beautifully done. Food is always on point. Excellent flavors and attractive presentation. The flavorful variety of options in both the bar and food menu are very unique. Yesterday I enjoyed a a nice cocktail called The Bluebonnet which was a nice refreshing vodka cocktail with blueberries and citrus for a hot day and I got the 97 West burger. My favorite parts of this burger, besides the delicious meat patty, are the pimento cheese and pickled red onions as well as the brioche bun! It’s the best burger I’ve ever eaten! The service is always so fantastic. Yesterday we had Mandi as our waitress and she went over and above to help us with our unique requests for an appetizer. She was attentive and very kind. We enjoyed having her so much! Every time I come here I feel like I’m on a vacation, even though I live about 45 minutes away. They just do such an exceptional job to make their patrons feel seen, cared for, and appreciated. I will continue to visit and bring new friends when I can.

Atmosphere was amazing, food was incredible, and the margarita was one of the best I’ve ever had. Our waitress was very punctual and attentive to our needs. I would recommend this restaurant to anybody visiting in the stockyards for a girls trip, party, or for any other occasion.

Wilson our server was AMAZING and great at his craft. We recommend the fried oysters, steaks, and the burger. Due to coursing out the dishes some of our food did come out cold, which was unfortunate. There was also a service mistake causing an incorrect menu item to be served, again keeping us waiting on the correct dish = cold food.

This meal blew my mind! Starting with the cocktails, the apps, and the entree not one single thing disappointed! Our server was well versed on the menu and made fantastic recommendations that everyone tried and loved! The atmosphere is great, I caught myself looking around at all the different details in the decorations. 10/10 recommend!

The food here is perfect. I had the bison tenderloin. It's the best steak I've ever had. I sampled the mac and cheese. It was amazing. I've also had the brussel sprouts. They were amazing. Our group had a few other appetizers I forgot the name of but they were all amazing.

Had dinner Jan 25, celebrated my dad's 80th and my parents 60th anniversary. Our server was Dolce. Food was great, service was outstanding. One thing we noticed was the lady cooking at the grill never took a break. 2 hours, cooking steaks. Our experience was fantastic!

The service was awful and they treated me poorly. I tried to patronize this place and to have a good dining experience, but it is obvious that they don’t specialize in customer service and they jump to conclusions. It is as if they take pleasure in under serving their customers.

Great experience! The food was absolutely amazing and the staff were super friendly. We got the chips and dips to start with. Great salsa, queso, and guacamole. I got the burger and it was phenomenal! My husband got the chicken fried steak and said it’s among the best he’s had. Highly recommend a reservation as it started getting more crowded through the night!

My absolute favorite place to dine in the Ft Worth, Tx area. The food here is consistently good. The service is great. The staff really offers southern hospitality. The restaurant is beautiful and gives you a true feel of the cowboy/country environment. The red fish is so good, as are the sweet tea marinated fried green tomatoes and cauliflower soup. Even the grilled bread that they serve is so tasty! I've literally never had a dish here that I didn't like. They also make the best pecan pie that I've ever had in my life!! Even if I am too full for dessert, I must get the pecan pie to go! Between dining and parking, you'll spend a pretty penny, but it'll be worth every cent!

Nancy helped us to a delicious brunch… you *cannot* miss the pork belly bacon and jalapeño corn bread with maple syrup. A memorable dish! We also had the hash and the fried chicken that were delicious. Come with a big appetite!

We enjoyed brunch here on a Saturday, mainly because we wanted to check out the Drover Hotel and grounds. It is a lovely place! The restaurant has indoor and patio seating, both with a nice view. We had the chicken and biscuits and the stockyards hash, and we liked both very much. Service was friendly and pleasant. We would definitely dine here again.

I came with my family for Christmas brunch and the food was fantastic, atmosphere was awesome, but the service was the best. Taylor was our server and she straight knocked of out of the park. So sweet, funny as heck, genuine with recommendations. Excellent service!
