Emilia's Fort Worth

Nestled within the historic Crescent Hotel on Camp Bowie Boulevard, Emilia’s Fort Worth delivers a coastal Mediterranean experience that blends farm‑to‑table freshness with elegant fine‑dining. Guests are welcomed into the vaulted main dining room, where white‑washed walls, reclaimed‑wood accents, and soft amber lighting create an intimate atmosphere. Signature dishes such as the charcoal‑grilled octopus with preserved lemon, slow‑braised lamb shoulder tagine, and saffron‑infused risotto with seasonal vegetables showcase Chef Marco Rossi’s dedication to Mediterranean flavors sourced from Texas farms and local fisheries. The Blue Room, a secluded private‑dining space, offers an exclusive nine‑course tasting menu paired with curated wines, perfect for celebrations. For daytime visitors, the Kentucky Derby Brunch features Southern‑inspired mezzes, fresh figs, and a mimosa bar, served Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The on‑site Circle Bar, located near Dickies Arena, serves inventive cocktails like the “Blue Moon” made with blue curaçao, fresh rosemary, and house‑made tonic. Opening hours are Monday‑Saturday 5 p.m.–10 p.m. and Sunday 12 p.m.–9 p.m., with a price range of $30–$80 per entrée. Easy parking is available at the hotel’s valet, and the venue is a short walk from the Fort Worth Stockyards and the Cultural District, making it ideal for both locals and tourists seeking a refined yet relaxed dining experience.
