J.D. Granger to transform old house into new restaurant in this Fort Worth neighborhood

J.D. Granger, who pushed for Fort Worth to become a more river-focused city, plans to open a restaurant in the Riverbend area next year.

The restaurant will be called Crystal Springs Hideaway and will be located at 113 Roberts Cutoff Road near Heim Barbecue and Salsa Limon.

The current building is a house with a water tower in the backyard. Granger said he plans to convert the house into the restaurant, incorporating the water tower in the design.

Granger plans for Crystal Springs Hideaway to have an affordable, casual dining vibe with a beer garden and dog-friendly patio.

Expected completion date is spring 2024.

J.D. Granger, son of U.S. Rep. Kay Granger, previously served as executive director of the Trinity River Vision Authority for 16 years before stepping down last year.
