Bankhead was as awesome as usual. Food is always outstanding. The Godfather pizza is one of my favorite pizzas of all time. Not to mention the PHENOMENAL brussel sprouts appetizer. Outstanding! And the service is always top notch. Music is great. Love to go with a group of friends.

It was my first time at Bankhead. There were 9 of us. The food was great! Everyone loved their food. Our server was excellent! It was her third day on the job and she did a great job. An add plus was it wasn’t loud so we could talk and hear each other. That’s so nice. I can’t wait to go back!

Their pizzas are wonderful! We’ve ordered the Godfather, pepperoni, and fig pizza. The pretzel is huge. I had the lobster risotto and you cannot see the lobster but the taste is superb. Try the house wines, both red and white are very good.

Long wait to be acknowledged and served. They had no waiters and that's not our girls fault but it did suck for date night with a sitter when you Steve an hour waiting for service.

Good afternoon, This is disappointing to hear, I apologize we were not able to meet expectations. I would have been equally as frustrated had I been in the same situation. It is a top priority for us that we provide exceptional service to each and every guest and we dropped the ball with your visit. We sincerely appreciate the feedback and hope that we can prove we are much better than this upon your next visit.

Great pizza! Wonderful service! Band was too loud! Furthermore, when the band was NOT playing, we were blasted with canned music which was also too loud. Btw, the band was very good otherwise.

The restaurant was able to easily accommodate our last minute brunch reservation for party of 10. Ambiance was great (as expected) and our waitress was attentive. Our party arrived at different times but we were able to get seated immediately and order appetizers and some cocktails. Our cocktails and mimosas were good and the appetizers, especially the prosciutto wrapped jalapeños, were delicious. Our meals, however, were extremely disappointing. Those that ordered the omelet said they were all undercooked. I had the chicken and waffles which was dry and the waffles were like eggos. Also I think I was shorted a chicken breast, but considering it was not good anyway, I didn’t make a fuss. Another in our party ordered the roasted chicken quarter which was completely undercooked. If you are stopping through to grab some appetizers and cocktails, this is a great option. Do not expect anything more beyond that.

Good afternoon. Thank you for the feedback, it is absolutely necessary in order to stay on top of our game. This is very disappointing to hear, we pride ourselves on fresh, delicious, chef-driven dishes and we clearly missed the mark with you and your group. I have had the opportunity to discuss this with our chef and we will continue to push ourselves to ensure each and every guest leaves here feeling they had a great experience. Please come back and see us, you won't be disappointed!

First time at Bankhead Brewing, husband had WTF burger and it was massive with tons of tasty truffle fries and he said it was delicious! I had the meatloaf which was so good, tender with a good crust on the outside and the bbq sauce was amazing! Live music was good, We will be back!

Great food, great service and fun decor. We had the hot pretzel appetizer, which was great. Their beers are also wonderful with a very broad selection on tap. Definitely will be back whenever I am in Fort Worth! Cuban sandwich was great, half chicken was great as were the brussels sprouts appetizer!

We set up a reservation for 12. The morning of the event we received a call confirming the reservation and they looked forward to seeing us. When we arrived, they sat all of us immediately. Service was quick and often even though she had a large group and several other tables. A live band was playing and it was a bit loud, but they were very good. Food took a bit to arrive, but was well worth the wait. I had the shrimp pasta with huge shrimp and a great tasting sauce. Others had pizza, salad, and the Cuban sandwich. All said the food was really good. Wide selection of beers and drinks. I had the DIPA and it was good and not overpowering. Overall it was a great experience and we look forward to coming back.

The menu had a good selection of options to choose from. We made a reservation for a Saturday night at 6:30 and our table was waiting for us. There was a good sized group at the bar enjoying the live band. Unfortunately, it was so loud that we were not able to talk or hear one another until the band took a break. If we had known about the loud band, we would have tried a different night of the week. We ordered the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich, Cuban Press sandwich, and the Godfather Pizza. The sandwiches all come with french fries which were ok, not great. The Nashville Chicken sandwich was supposed to have a chipotle mayo/aoli on it, but when served it was missing. Other than that the sandwich was very good...nice spice. The Cuban Press was good, not the best ever, but good. The flavors of the Godfather Pizza were fantastic, but most of the crust was not cooked at all. It appeared to be barely cooked dough. I'm not sure if it's because the toppings were wet (garlic marinara, ricotta, mozzarella) or what, but it was not a good crust at all. Service was very good and we'll probably go back and give it another try on a different night of the week.

We had a group of 10, none of which had been here before, with a 5:30 reservation and were seated promptly. It took a while for things to get started. We got drinks but had to wait quite a while to order appetizers and then even longer for entrees (over 45 minutes after we sat). The appetizers were each really good (BLTA dip, Pootine, fried pickles and nachos) and of good size. We ordered a variety of entrees. My wife and I shared a pizza and meatloaf. Pizza was unique and quite tasty. Meatloaf was good but got a little dry with so little sauce put on it. Everyone spoke highly of their other entrees. There was live music that was nice to listen to and was at a volume which allowed conversations to continue at normal volume. Once we got started ordering, things flowed but it was a little slow at the beginning. Overall, it was a really good first experience and a place we would return to, especially with a group.

While there is music, you’re not able to hear it unless you sit at the bar. With a table of 4 we were put in the back. Food was average at best. Eventually moved to the bar and saw the bartender once. Would have ordered more drinks but no one was there to ask. Not worth it

We were 10 minutes late to our reservations, something that has literally never happened with us before, but were glad to see the “15 minute grace period” notice. When we walked in, the hostess told us that because we were late, they gave our table away and it would be a few more minutes. I told her that we didn’t call due to the notice on OpenTable and she just said, “Yeah, well…” We waited 15 more minutes until a table opened up. The food was very tasty, but was dripping with grease. The beers were awesome and a fantastic price. The service took a bit of time as they were busy. All of that being said, both the hostess and the server were very nice and it’s not their fault we were late. It was just frustrating to be told our table was given away when there is a notice about a grace period on the app. Then when we were sat we were grateful we didn’t have anywhere to be immediately. Overall, I recommend visiting as long as grease doesn’t bother you and you have some time on your hands.
