Immerse yourself in the culinary scene showcased in the acclaimed TV series Landman, which has prominently featured numerous restaurants and bars across North Texas, particularly in Fort Worth. As the show became a staple during last week’s snowstorm, a local exploration of these dining spots seemed like a perfect way to connect with the series.
1. 61 Osteria (500 W 7th St, Ste 100, Fort Worth, 817-953-3271) takes center stage in a tense lunch scene from Season 1, Episode 4. This establishment highlights “Texas ingredients, the Italian way,” but keep in mind that it operates exclusively for dinner from 4:30 PM to 9 PM, Monday through Saturday.
Cattlemen’s Fort Worth Steak House (2458 N Main St, Fort Worth, 817-624-3945) is a historic eatery and saloon-style bar established in the Stockyards in 1947. After featuring in Season 3, Episode 3, show creator Taylor Sheridan, along with partners David Glasser and Dan Schryer, acquired the property in June 2025. The team has since renovated this iconic venue to include event spaces and a private, members-only section known as the “Cattlemen’s Club.”
Don Artemio Mexican Heritage (3268 W 7th St, Fort Worth, 817-470-1439), which appears in Season 2, Episode 7, specializes in the modern flavors of Northeast Mexico. In celebration of the annual stock show and rodeo, the restaurant is offering a Three-Course Rodeo Special for $69, featuring options like taco de lengua, salmon in green mole, and a choice of desserts including tres leches cake or chocolate cake.
The Chumley House (3230 Camp Bowie Blvd, Ste 150, Fort Worth, 469-960-6541) is depicted in Season 2, Episode 10 as an “European-inspired steakhouse with a British flair.” In this episode, Angela has a pivotal lunch with Bella, where shocking news about Tommy’s firing is revealed. Bella humorously claims, “There is nobody in the U.S. that can make a beef Wellington even edible, but here it is, mamma mia.”
Almost every episode of Landman features characters visiting the fictional bar and grill The Patch Cafe, with filming conducted at the former Dayne’s Craft Barbecue (9840 Camp Bowie West). If you decide to visit, nearby options include JD’s Hamburgers (9901 Camp Bowie West, Fort Worth, 817-888-8914) and Margie’s Italian Gardens (9805 Camp Bowie West, Fort Worth, 817-244-4301), both of which appear in the background of scenes set at The Patch.
For those seeking an exclusive dining experience, consider The Petroleum Club of Fort Worth (777 Main St, Fort Worth, 817-335-7571). Although primarily a private members-only establishment, it occasionally opens its doors to nonmembers through its “Member for a Night” program. During these events, nonmembers can access the Skyline Room and Bar 40 (featured in Season 1, Episode 1) for a $20 entry fee, plus a 24% service charge, provided reservations are made and a business-casual dress code is observed.
Featured in Season 1, Episode 8, Toro Toro (200 Main St, Fort Worth, 817-975-9895), overseen by Chef Richard Sandoval, offers a pan-Latin dining experience with an array of daily rotating salads, chilled appetizers, and the chef’s signature parrilla plate. Currently, they provide a lunch buffet priced at $18.
Lastly, don’t miss The White Elephant Saloon (106 E Exchange Av, Fort Worth, 817-624-8273), the city’s oldest saloon, which appears in Season 1, Episode 6. Although it primarily serves as a bar, this Stockyards landmark features a Chili Parlor that offers traditional Texas-style chili and cornbread.
In conclusion, why not play tourist in your own city? With the growing popularity of this column, consider making reservations soon at these featured establishments. Moreover, purchasing gift cards in advance can be a great way to support local businesses, especially after the challenges posed by recent weather closures.
