Gone: Italian restaurant in Fort Worth, Parker County burger grill-bar both closed

Tre Mogli, an ambitious Italian restaurant in South Main Village, has closed, according to a post Monday on the restaurant’s Facebook page.

A corporate cousin, Parker County Ice House in Willow Park, also closed, according to social media photos and comments. The phone went unanswered Monday night.

“We deeply regret to announce that Tre Mogli will be closing its doors permanently as of today,” the Fort Worth restaurant’s social media post read.

“We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all our loyal patrons and amazing employees who’ve been a part of our journey over the last year and a half. Your support has meant the world to us, and we will cherish the memories. Thank you once again for your unwavering support and understanding.”

Exactly the same note was photographed at Parker County Ice House, 210 Willow Bend Circle, changing only the restaurant name.

The Willow Park restaurant had been the target last year of noise complaints from neighbors and went through a protracted negotiation with that city.

Parker County Ice House relocated there in 2021 from its beginnings as Berry St. Ice House, 2000 W. Berry St. in Fort Worth.

Tre Mogli, 401 S. Main St., opened back-to-back with survivor Wishbone & Flynt, which remains open..

The restaurants were all owned by Fort Worth-based Trident Restaurant Group.

Founding chef Stefon Rishel said he remains with Wishbone & Flynt. He is mostly focused on opening a dumplings restaurant, Teddy Wong’s Dumplings & Wine, 812 W. Rosedale St.
