First time visiting ! It was busy but not too overly crowded. Delicious cocktails and reasonably priced. Ordered the burger with brisket and sausage . Was very difficult to find the brisket and sausage. Burger its self was cooked perfectly and delicious ! Being right next to the river was amazing

We wanted to eat dinner before the concert. Since hubby absolutely loves BBQ, Woodshed Smokehouse seemed the perfect place. It was a great choice!! We chose the pretzel and hummus as appetizers with steamed veggies. My daughter didn't want to share the pretzel at all because it was just so mouth wateringly yummy!! The hummus had a lovely smoked flavor to it. We honestly were pretty full by the time our entrees arrived. The loaded potatoes were the best we've ever had!! The atmosphere was fun and lively. It's definitely a perfect place to hang out with friends while eating delicious BBQ.

Tim Love did it again with this one 👏 Menu featuring smokehouse BBQ and breakfast options. Adding to my list as one of my all-time favorite local patios. The Woodshed Smokehouse Fort Worth, TX. Wood-fired BBQ by Chef Tim Love. Dog-friendly. Trinity River views. Live music & events. Saturday morning breakfast in Funky Town with family on this beautiful Texas Fall day. Location on the Trinity River near the Clear Fork trailhead + perfect patio weather + quality time with loved ones. We enjoyed our time so much that I didn't get the group photo. Menu selections for our group: poutine, Tim Love style breakfast sandwich, campfire biscuits with brisket gravy, avocado toast, and of course chicken and waffles. Highly recommend the chicken and waffles and the Kremlin coffee. Tim Love did it again with this one. I'm a fan. 👏

Fabulous breakfast in a beautiful setting. Our server was friendly and attentive. We ordered the Campfire biscuits, 6 biscuits with a bowl of sausage gravy, jam, butter, and maple syrup. The sausage gravy was the best I'd ever had. We also ordered the strawberry shortcakes, 3 large pancakes with butter, whipped cream, syrup, and strawberry. The biscuits and brisket sausage gravy was amazing. Poutine with crispy potatoes (not fries) with beer cheese sauce, chopped brisket, and a sunny side egg, was super. Chicken and waffles is served sweet or savory. We had the sweet version with powdered sugar and maple syrup. Crispy fried chicken breast on a fluffy waffle was delicious. The fresh fruit crepes wete light and tasty filled with a fruit compote and served with whipped cream. We can't wait to go back for lunch!

Very good food and treatment. The fan went out while eating manager tried fixing it. The waitress was very tentative as well. Definitely recommend this place! My husband and I had a great time!

Followed my nose here from my hotel down the street. Thought it was going to be a basic BBQ place and at my own fault I should've researched the menu before visiting. 95% of options on the menu just had way to many ingredients for my taste. It was way over complicated when all I really wanted was some southern BBQ. I wound up getting a side of pulled pork and some type of potatoes wedge as the side. The potatoes were good & salty, the pulled pork was just fatty as can be (not in a good way). I left hungry. My service from the server was not great. I asked for my check and he completely forgot about me for 20ish mins or so until he happened to walk past me for another table. The atmosphere was great and would be a totally fun place to have some drinks with friends & vibe to music. That's why I would go back, not for the food but for the vibe itself.

Born and raised in Fort Worth, but have spent my adult life in Austin. Came back to Fort Worth to visit family and checked out this restaurant. Fantastic food and vibes. Definitely recommend!

We had a large group… I was a server before and know that can be overwhelming and there’s only so much you can control. But… my drink didn’t show up for 30 minutes (others did- so it wasn’t a bartender mistake or being backed up)… my kids food was clearly forgotten. Yet both a manager and the server never acknowledged they screwed up. Even though it was obvious when another person in our group ordered food 20 minutes after we ordered, and she got hers first… Zero was offered to make up for their mistakes. Food was preordered for our large group and the portion size was laughable. The music and atmosphere overall seemed nice. Definitely not a place I would try again as a large party. Servers and management could use some improvement in customer service.
