The Chumley House - Fort Worth (TX)

5 /5 Mayra: Came twice within a week! It’s so good! Surprisingly smaller than I imagined so definitely recommend a reservation, we got lucky at the bar twice. I’m obsessed with the complimentary scones and tea, how could something so good be free? I’m here for it. We had the crab pot pie, beef Wellington, beignets, Artichoke & Caramelized Onion Dip with chips, and I would give them all a 9/10. The Pimm’s Cup Spritz was a 10/10! I definitely see myself on their patio this summer having a few. Loved the matches and all the small details from decorations to presentation, one of my new favorites.

5 /5 Robert Ortiz: Solid dining experience. The service is what you expect from a place like this. Food is incredible. It’s clear every detail has been thought through and executed to precision. It’s become the new favorite spot in Fort Worth! The place is surprising small, perhaps due to being connected to a hotel. It can feel stuffy and crowded on a busy night. I haven’t tried showing up without a reservation, so can’t speak to wait times for walk ins.

5 /5 Nghiem Duong: Being a fan of Duro Hospitality, I had to round out their list of restaurants by checking off The Chumley House for my birthday. Amazing, amazing. From the moment we stepped in to finish, everything was wonderful, and our server, Sara, was so kind and attentive. On to the good stuff - The applewood pork belly was a savory hit, with balances of sweet, salty and spicy. We were given a cute little amuse of the regal potato with crème fraiche and caviar, and the potato was crunchy and soft. I admired this bite for a little bit, and thought this needs to be on the menu. Next, was the tenderloin stroganoff…y’all the ricotta dumplings were melt in your mouth goodness. Then out came the star of the show, the beef Wellington and let me just say, you’ve been beat, Mister Charles. With each bite you got a perfectly cooked soft tenderloin with a delightfully crunchy pastry. What more do you need in life? It was wonderful. If you’re looking for fantastic food and thoughtful service, The Chumley House needs to be your next destination. You’ve knocked it out of the ballpark (yet again) with this one, Duro.

5 /5 Shelby Griesinger: An absolute standout in Fort Worth. From the moment we sat down, everything felt thoughtful and intentional. We started with the beef stroganoff for an appetizer (even though it’s technically an entree), it was rich, comforting, and beautifully balanced. It set the bar immediately. I ordered the NY strip, and I do not say this lightly. It was the best steak I have ever had. Perfectly cooked, flavorful, and genuinely memorable. One of those dishes you keep thinking about afterward. We ordered one of every dessert and there was not a single weak link. The sticky toffee pudding was my favorite, followed closely by the tiramisu, but honestly everything was a 10 out of 10. The super cute English-style decor deserves its own mention. Cozy, charming, and elevated without trying too hard. Add excellent service and you have a place that feels special start to finish. We will absolutely be back and will be bringing friends.

5 /5 Kelso Bamburg: Walking into The Chumley House feels like walking into a Bond Movie. Its elegant, moody and cinematic. Sam and Liz have mastered both an impeccable attention to detail and an efforless sense of cool. The whole place has this cozy, London-inspired charm that makes you want to linger over every course. The garam masala scones were a standout. Buttery, fragrant, and perfectly balanced. The Tikka pie was excellent. Rich, comforting, and full of flavor. Regal potatoes were both soft and pillowy in the center while crisp on the outside. The steaks are delicious but the Applewood Pork Belly stole the show. Absolutely phenomenal. Between the incredible food, warm atmosphere, and thoughtful service, this spot easily earned a top spot on our favorites list.
