I want to say it was behind the Risky’s on Camp Bowie West in that weird strip center near Denny’s & the blue glass Hickman building. May be like a fucking dance studio now or some shit.

  • Ugh. When I first moved here in 2010 they used to have an old Expedition that neighbors would volunteer to drive around the neighborhood all weekend with a "SECURITY" sticker on it. Fucking stupid.

Since we had fun with the old Park Central hotel bar the other day... Wasn’t there a Clique’s or something around here back in the day? Not the pool hall spelled Clicks. 


Yeah, I’ve never had a problem with them. I guess living in NYC and Chicago made me immune to noticing them...or like you said, everyone else is pussies.

I’m glad the fucking gunman is dead. Fucking pieces of shit.

I think you are correct.  I vaguely remember going there sometime around 2001-2002.

Was this it? Riscky's on the left.

Yeah, maybe to the left of that white rectangle sign in the corner slot. Only reason it popped into my head was Bar Rescue did a Clique's in another state, thought we used to have one too.  

Two more for you, if any of you get the second one you're real good. 

First one was a pool hall in that strip center between Electric Cowboy & Spring Creek (closer to EC). It was actually pretty fucking nice once you got inside, bar right there in front, plenty of TVs, then a shitload of pool tables going back in a rectangle a lot farther than you would expect from the outside. They were just never gonna make enough $ in that location to sustain their overhead. 

Second was in the complex by Chili's on Hulen, down in the corner spot past Play It Again Sports. Bar on the right, one or two pool tables in the front, then a fucking dance floor of some type with fucking black & white checkerboard tile. Only went once cause I saw an ad in the Weekly, don't think it even lasted 3 months. No fucking clue what it was called. 

Gameday at TCU, someone has a "FIX BLUEBONNET CIRCLE" sign.

Went to Tricky Fish. the chips and fish was really good. server said it was cod. i expected it to come in planks like long john silver. it was a big fried filet.  

We went last weekend and really enjoyed it.

For appetizer we had the Calamari. It had banana peppers and okra as well. Great remoulade sauce for dipping. Probably the best fried okra I’ve ever had.

Dinner for me was blackened redfish topped with crawfish ettouffee. Came with dirty rice and more okra. Absolutely 0 complaints there. Portion was huge but I’m a man so I ate it all. Wife(no pics) had fried crawfish tails. They seemed bigger than average and were also great.

We shared a banana pudding for desert and once again had no complaints at all. It was also great.

Will definitely be returning.

Watching the game with the bartender I know from Corsets, she said the three fine gentlemen were supposed to help her move yesterday in exchange for booze. They were occupied though.

Wife had this on Tuesday while I had crawfish etoufee-solid on both counts.  Service was attentive but not intrusive, dessert was excellent.  Our first time there will not be our last.

 

Why the hell do billy bobs shows start at 1030? Is there an actual reason? 

Went to the new BBQ place in Montgomery Plaza.  Reminded me a lot of Red Hot and Blue.    The brisket was very average but everything else was pretty damn good (ribs and sides).  The management seems to be way better than the previous two dozen restaurants that were in that spot.

It is not a sports bar.  They have tv's but they are not catering to that type of atmosphere.

Anyone checked out the oyster place?

Don't think that's opening for a few wks

That is correct.  Menu looks good though. 

Anyone been/heard about Daynes craft bbq? I've missed every pop up event for one reason or another.

Might have had the worst smoked turkey breast I’ve ever had today at Heim. Couldn’t even be offset by the $8/oz pours of Elmer T Lee.

If I'm doing BBQ in FW it's that trailer where heim originated. I've learned my lesson with heim

a couple of guys I went to high school with are Boozefighters. What is wrong with that club? I have no dog in the fight, just wondering?

Good news on restaurant front... a casual fare seafood based place is opening in a few weeks in the former salsa limon by tcu. 

And buffalo bros is opening a second location by Sundance square so there'll be a real sports bar, article says 2019 opening

Pretty basic bar fare but decent sports bar setup tv wise and they have solid deals/promos

I like it, they have an Italian sausage sandwich with capicola & provolone that is pretty damn good. Little pricy, but that’s getting to be everywhere these days. 

i ike it. I always get the 15 wings medium with fries. My daughter gets a slice of pizza and is happy. 

I have always enjoyed it. It has been a while but I remember them having decent daily specials.

I remember Buffalo Bros being pretty good but relatively expensive.

The foot-long sub & fries I mentioned above is like $16, that’s a little excessive. And the fries are the definition of average. 

Anyone had the new sub shop on camp Bowie? Cuban looks great but it also looks like an only meal of the day kind of place.

camp bowie and horne? if so, tried going there a few weeks back at 1PM, i was one of 4-5 ppl in there including a couple ahead of me in line. I get up to the front and fire my order off and get a "sorry, we're out of pulled pork"..... HOW THE F! It was 1PM on a weekday and they obviously weren't that busy. Reading up on yelp it seems that similar stuff has happened. It'll be a while before I give them another shot

Doubt they make it. Concept from out of state that probably doesn’t give their franchisees much direction on running a fast food joint. Thanks for the heads up. 

And a weird fucking location. 

Edited by spystud13
At least they’ll have the Colonial crowd.

I know it's historic landmark or w/e but how much damn money does the city spend on maintaining camp Bowie bricks? At any point there's at least one spot getting repaired with another 2-3 in desperate need

And the drivers who can't properly use the median to make a turn, so they block traffic in the left lane.

I like Camp Bowie and the bricks.

I'm staying in downtown Ft. Worth for one night this weekend. Where should I go to dinner in your stupid little cow town.
