Yes, the Paris Coffee Shop will open nights for dinner and cocktails. Here’s when
Paris Coffee Shop to open for dinner
Hey, Bud! I thought the Paris Coffee Shop was going to open for dinner?
—Brian, Fort Worth
The remodeled Paris, 704 W. Magnolia Ave., will resume dinner hours Sept. 1 after operating mostly as a lunch cafe since 1926.
It’ll serve southside diners until 9 p.m. Thursdays and 10 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, offering the same chicken-fried steaks and daily platters plus a nightly special and cocktails.
(If you haven’t found a favorite there yet, the breakfasts are similar to the old Paris, and they’re now served seven days. Daily lunch and dinner menus add more salads.)
Fiesta Mexican reopens in Fort Worth
Hey, Bud! Did you see where Fiesta Mexican Restaurant reopened?
—Reader who always asked about Fiesta
One of Fort Worth’s favorite old-school Tex-Mex restaurants, Fiesta, is open again at 3233 Hemphill St. south of West Berry Street.
Breakfast from 10 a.m. weekdays, earlier weekends, plus lunch specials and dinners.
Deep sadness over deep-dish pizza
Hey, Bud! Gino’s East closed. Where do we go for deep-dish pizza?
—Chicagoan in Arlington
Gino’s in Arlington couldn’t survive COVID, diets and the Rangers’ slump. It has now gone the way of Pizzeria Uno — meaning out of Texas.
BJ’s Brewhouse and Old Chicago both serve a deep-dish pizza, along with Uno Dué Go at DFW Airport. But they won’t satisfy a Gino’s fan.
