We felt like we were in a Mexican hacienda. Several fountains throughout the place give it a very welcoming atmosphere. Food is plentiful. Had to take the rest of my fajitas home today. Great service. Great food. Lots of people for a lunch crowd. Very lively and great decorations. Clean bathrooms too.

Isabella was my server and she was amazing. Attentive, kind, and personable. Several people told me to try this place, and I’m glad I listened. JTG on the servers’ uniforms caught my eye right away. Simple Mexican food, but it’s done right.
The salsa has a tiny kick, which is perfect for me since I’m a total wuss with spice. It’s super mild, but still has enough flavor to be delicious. The nacho came as cheese on a tortilla, and even that was great.
I honestly thought the little building I walked into was the whole restaurant. Nope. There’s a huge garden area outside and an entire second building for indoor seating. The place is massive. Fantastic spot all around

If you are in Fort Worth and want to have some great Mexican food – you should definitely try this place. It looks like you enter the different country it looks so nice outdoor with little fountain. Food is great! I had street tacos and meat was so tender and delicious. Definitely coming back here in the future

The pitcher of margaritas was way more than I was expecting! Food was good but did tale about 50mins to come out. The singer was great and knew the song we requested. Waiter was super helpful and nice. Great atmosphere and wonderful date night. 10min walk to thr stockyards. Also of there is a line, go around the side to the back and sit on the patio. No line and they have heaters. So nice! Also also this is cash only, but they have 3-4 atm on site.

Visiting Fort Worth. Went there on a Thursday afternoon.
Already ate, but still decided to pay a visit for their infamous Garden because my Gemini AI told me to — and was not disappointed!
The Garden is indeed gorgeous — felt like I stepped in time and into another country.
Already had a Salisbury Stake at Paris Coffee Shop half an hour ago; I just couldn’t eat anymore. So I decided to try their desserts with their house coffee instead.
Had 3 of their desserts: Sopapillas, Parlines, Leche Quemada. All amazing. My favorite was their Leche Quemada — soft, moist and chocolatty.
The atmosphere, the servers and all of the staffs are amazing! Especially their hospitality — out of this world.
I wanna take a moment to talk about my server, DANIELLA, for a second — amazing young lady: attentive; very fast and efficient but not rushing; clearly loves her job and very good at it. She checked-in with me multiple times, asked me how I like it and if I need anything. Topped up my coffee.
When I ordered my third dessert, she also brought me a little bag and said “here’s a bag to take it with you if you can’t finish it”.
Well. She was right; I couldn’t finish it indeed.
I don’t even know myself that well; somehow she did.
Being able to know your customers at this level is a gift.

This place is phenomenal! This restaurant has been open for 90 years. The food, service and atmosphere was awesome. It looks like a little restaurant from the front but you walk-through and find yourself in a beautiful botanical garden in the back. I was here for a late breakfast, but can only imagine the atmosphere on an evening. I highly recommend checking this place out. You will not be disappointed.

The food that we ordered was the beef fajitas and cheese enchilada. We also ordered a margarita. The beef fajitas were the best I’ve ever had. The refried beans are so creamy and the rice was fresh. The cheese enchilada were alright, but the red sauce reminded me of chef boyard. The nachos were amazing, and the chips and salsa were so fresh. The guacamole was the best I’ve ever had. I would come back in a heartbeat.

Visited for the first time a week ago and was pleasantly surprised. The patio at night was beautiful. Even ate at Esperanza and pleased there as well. Both with be my Fort Worth spot from now on.

You are welcomed to a very large courtyard with outside seating. Being october the weather was perfect for outdoor dining. They had mariachi performers playing music. That was a nice touch. To the food. You only had two choices. Well three. Chicken or beef fajitas and an enchilada plate. I got the beef fijatas. They provide a generous side of guacamole, sourcream,pico and cheese. A heavy prlortion of steak, beans and rice. The steak was alittle salty for my taste alone but fixed up in a taco it was delicious. I hear they have a line to get in but we got lucky on a Wednesday at 6:30. Just walked in. But it was packed once inside.

This was my first visit to Joe T’s since the blackout drunk nights of my youth when someone else was paying for drinks. Joe T’s was always the fancy Mexican food place that aside from the patio, never seemed fancy at all. When I was younger…I didn’t get it. Coming back this past Friday as a 41 year old with an appreciation for simple beautiful creations that withstand the test of time I can now tell you that…I get it! Enchiladas or Fajitas…don’t ask questions…just pick which one you want more that night. Don’t ask why they come and throw 6 or 7 tostadas with gooey melted cheese and perfectly spiced and diced jalapeno relish on your table and don’t you dare say you didn’t order em…just eat! Have a Pacifico or a Maragarita of any flavor, they use fine salt and it’s a little different so be mindful if you’re a margarita snob and that’s a dealbreaker for you but they are…NICE AND EASY! The food is simple because it’s cooked to perfection with consistency, quality, and a sense of urgency night in and night out! They serve 1000+ people a night on busy nights…don’t ask why their menu is so simple…just enjoy the that it is served quickly, hot, fresh, and a heart warming, memory-drawing sampling of Tex-Mex cuisine. This is comfort food in the most comfortable and beautiful ambiance and they don’t rush you out the door, they allow you to enjoy your time on the patio at night under the stars by the fire! I never understood what the fuss was all about but Joe T’s isn’t a fancy restaurant, it is an entire social comfort food experience completely dialed in on guest satisfaction. The staff is professional, prompt courteous and they keep the “on stage” and “of-service” mentalities approachable, friendly, and warm. The food, the atmosphere, the ambiance, and the team all work beautifully together making Joe T’s a wonderful and unique experience not just dinner! Thank you so much for opening my eyes!
