Eight steakhouses have opened or are planned to open in Tarrant County this year
As we know, Texans love their beef. And the Tarrant County restaurant scene notices that.
Despite the rising beef prices, steakhouses are popping up like crazy across Fort Worth and Arlington. Just this year, three new restaurants serving steaks have opened. And five more are on the docket.
They are not just all the classic steakhouse with wedge salads and martinis. There is an Italian-focused steakhouse, a steak frites concept, a steakhouse with Tex-Mex menu items and a Brazilian rodizio-style steakhouse.
Here are what steakhouses have newly opened, and which ones to watch out for.
