Visitors looking for quick, inexpensive dining will find a number of restaurants within walking distance to the Convention Center. Here are a few favorites of the Central Texas Conference Host Committee:

Corner Bakery Cafe (615 Main St. • 817-870-4991) and La Madeleine Bakery Café (305 Main St. • 817-332-3639) offer a good assortment of soups, sandwiches, salads and more at reasonable prices.

Despite the noisy atmosphere, Billy Miner’s (150 W. 3rd St. • 817-877-3301) serves up really tasty hamburgers, hot dogs and what some say are the best chili French fries. It’s a fun place to be — very casual. J’s Burgers N’ More (905 Throckmorton • 817-332-5609) is small but convenient to the Convention Center and locals enjoy their reliable burgers and sandwiches as well as some fast Asian selections.

Barbeque is almost required eating in Fort Worth. For the best downtown location try Riscky’s Bar-B-Q (300 Main St. • 817-877-3306) for the traditional variety in a nice casual restaurant. Other favorites are farther west of the downtown area: Angelo’s (2533 White Settlement Rd. • 817-332-0357) and Railhead Smokehouse (2900 Montgomery St. • 817-738-9808).

The next most favored food for anyone visiting Fort Worth is Mexican, called Tex-Mex in this part of the U.S. Try Mi Cocina-Sundance (509 Main St. • 817-877-3600) for its variety of offerings, including some vegetarian dishes plus the newer Cabo Grande (115 W. 2nd St. • 817-348-8226) and Cantina Lareda (500 Throckmorton • 817-810-0773). Sushi is growing in popularity in Fort Worth, but it can be somewhat pricey, depending on what you order. Try Mikado Sushi (299 W. 5th St. & • 817-336-9100), and Piranha Killer Sushi (335 W. 3rd St. • 817-348-0200).

For some old familiar dining choices, there are several popular chain restaurants. Chili’s (515 Main St. • 817-885-8680) has a variety of foods, Razzoo’s Cajun Café (318 Main St. • 817-338-2866) offers a selection of spicy Cajun favorites, and Uno Chicago Grill (300 Houston St. • 817-885-8667) has good pizza and a variety of other foods. And Soda Grill (911 Houston • 817-877-3939) is a little, home-style restaurant, offering inexpensive selections served quickly.

Dining at your hotel can be convenient, but if you want to step out for a nice dining experience there are a number of good choices. Among the finer downtown dining places are some more favorites recommended by your Fort Worth hosts. Caution — they can be expensive and reservations are recommended (required at some) for these selections.

Reata Restaurant (310 Houston St. • 817-336-1009) is a true favorite of the locals for a lovely dinner experience. The food is great and the setting authentic Texas rustic with a stylish twist. Try the rooftop view while you’re while you’re waiting to be seated. Prices are moderate to expensive.

Daddy Jack’s Lobster & Chowder House (353 Throckmorton • 817-332-2477) is a nice seafood lunch and dinner place, moderate to expensive prices depending on selections.

Del Frisco’s Double Eagle (812 Main St. • 817-877-3999) is some of the best beef you’ll ever eat along with some wonderful a la carte sides. Save up for this one; it’s expensive! Expensive, but good, are the Fort Worth Chop House (301 Main St. • 817-336-4129) and Texas de Brazil (101 N. Houston • 817-882-9500).

Two relatively new Italian restaurants to the area, both moderately priced, are Ferre (215 E. 4th St. • 817-332-0033) and Taverna (450 Throckmorton • 817-885-7502). Fizzi (500 Commerce St. • 817-336-3499) serves Mediterranean selections in the expensive price range. P.F. Chang’s (400 Throckmorton • 817-840-2450) is the popular Asian restaurant chain, moderately priced, with many selections. They graciously accommodate special dietary restrictions.
