I loved this place. This place is undoubtedly what made me like Fort Worth because the food was that good. I'm not even sure how to describe the level of tasty from the brisket, sausage, mac and cheese. And don't forget the cute panthers everywhere. Oh my goodness, they were ferocious cartoons but they were adorable and I loved the aesthetic. You could tell this place was good, because the bar was hounded by locals and people from town just stopping by to eat. Everyone seemed to know each other and was happy. Service was really quick for a place that was packed and squished, with people still coming in. I imagine this is a daily popular spot. No one on staff seemed overwhelmed or rude even when being slammed. I hate that it's in Forth Worth, because the sides, the meats, everything was perfection. They even had cane sugar soda. Like we need a Panther City BBQ in Houston. I would be there everyday and forget that I want to look cute, because that's how good this place is; so I guess it's a good thing it's in Forth Worth as my health couldn't sustain eating here everyday. It's contributing to the obesity epidemic good and you don't feel any shame eating it good. Just go. Eat. Be happy and look at cute panther picture while you are at it. read more

2026 - Yelp Review #11 Panther Creek BBQ offers smoked meats, sandwiches, tacos, poppers, smoked Mac n cheese, dill potato salad, and creamed corn to name a few. You order and then find seating either indoor or outdoor. Place your table number so it can be seen and your meal will be bought to your table. Everything was delicious and I will be returning to try their tacos. My least favorite menu item was their dill potato salad. Is was to much dill for my liking.

Long story short, we won't be going back. The employees have terrible attitudes, both the guy at the register and the one who handed us our order to go. Unfortunately for the guy who handed over our order, he happened to be in the back of one of the photos I snapped - he yelled our name out for the order and he rolled his eyes as we were thanking him and had terrible body language / attitude. No napkins and no forks either which is expected when it's so expensive and messy to eat. Food was okay, I really liked the brisket elote, but the potato salad was nothing special and frankly the bbq itself wasn't either. The sauce wasn't for me. If the employees were more pleasant we probably would come back but they really rubbed us wrong after we spent almost $100 and were treated poorly. read more

What's there to say. Amazing, top notch Texas BBQ. Now it did somewhat lack a bit of the intense smokified bbq flavor you'd come to expect and synonymous with Texas barbecue but not in a bad way. Amazing juicy brisket, and an even better top 5 burger I've ever had - anywhere. As good as Texas barbecue gets. read more

Okay! So! I definitely got food poisoning here but it was worth it. The food is delicious. I don't like fat on my brisket but it didn't matter here - it was still that good. The barbecue sauce on the tables is very good and not overwhelming. Just a totally good meal. The Mac and cheese was underwhelming, but let's be honest... you don't come to a place like this for the sides. read more

Hands down the best ribs I've ever had! They were tender, flavorful, and cooked to absolute perfection. The brisket was moist, juicy, and packed with that rich smoky flavor you hope for but don't always get. The rib tips were the real surprise though. Perfectly balance of sweet and savory. The sitting area was very clean, which I always appreciate, and the cashiers answered all my questions with a smile. There's outdoor seating available, which is perfect when the weather's nice, and they offer nightly specials. read more

First off - the parking sucks in these parts - so either get a ride there or prepare to walk a bit from wherever you managed to find a space. However, once you are there - the BBQ is amazing! We ordered the "cowtown platter" with additional order of ribs plus an extra "flaco taco" for our party of four and we still went home with leftovers. Our order was perfect for us to try all the menu offerings in one sitting and we were all hard pressed to choose our fave option. On a side note, the flaco taco is probably the best version of the combo of brisket and cheese that I've ever tasted and I am going to feebly attempt to recreate it at home as it it now the only way I want it! Lol Beer was cold, tasty and plentiful - I did notice the cocktail menu on the table BUT it is a BBQ joint - and beer and meat is a solid winning combination so why argue! read more

I've been to a lot of the BBQ spots in the Fort Worth area. Panther was highly recommended and suggested to be the top. I went there on a Thursday night for dinner at 5:30. The dinner and service was ok. A lot of the menu was not available which was disappointing. Maybe more would be available at lunch versus early dinner . I went with the brisket and flacos tacos. The brisket was a little dry and lukewarm to cool when it was served. The flacos tacos was a good twist with a cheese crust around the flour tortilla that housed a brisket taco. I had a tab at the bar and after one beer the tap was already dry and they no longer had clean glasses. In all a little disappointing with availability of food and beer. From my experience it is far behind hard eight and Terry Blacks. Hutchins is also much better. read more

If you're anywhere near Southside Fort Worth and haven't been to Panther City BBQ, you're missing out. This is the best BBQ I've ever had in DFW. I went on a Sunday around 11:45 and there was hardly any wait, which was awesome. The vibes inside were great too. Laid back, welcoming, and just an all around cool spot to hang out and eat. First off, Desiree behind the bar is the best. She's friendly, quick, and makes you feel welcome right away. The margaritas she makes are flat out incredible. Perfect balance, strong but smooth, and honestly some of the best I've had in Fort Worth. Now the food. The pork belly burnt ends were the best I've ever had and it wasn't even close. Perfectly cooked, tender, packed with flavor, and caramelized just right. I would go back for those alone. The brisket was exactly what Texas brisket should be. Great bark, juicy, and full of flavor in every bite. The brisket cream corn was unreal. Creamy with that smoky kick mixed in. The collard greens were seasoned perfectly and actually had depth of flavor, not just heat. The mac and cheese was rich, cheesy, and done right. And I can't forget the banana pudding. Some of the best I've ever had. The perfect way to finish everything off. Every single thing I tried was amazing. It really doesn't get much better in Fort Worth. Between the food and Desiree taking care of the bar, Panther City BBQ is top tier. I will absolutely be going back. read more

Incredible barbecue! Michelin recognized and one taste tells you why. I've eaten a lot of BBQ from many restaurants and this one might be untouchable. First thing to know is parking is a huge challenge. The food is the reason people overlook the Issues. The restaurant is well laid out and the adjacent outdoors covered dining is good. The line out the door is your first hint of greatness awaiting the patient. The two cashiers are quick and move customers efficiently, Not since Li'l Bob's BBQ at the State Fair of Texas have I found an equal to smoked bologna sandwiches! The cut was thick and cooked perfectly. Sides were Mac n cheese and dill potato salad Pictures below . Every bite of these choices was soul satisfying. The menu has so many traditional dishes common to BBQ fare. At my table, plates included brisket, ribs, chicken and wonderful sides. If you are near I -35 / I - 30 area on Hattie St Do yourself a favor- Eat here Soon I highly recommend this restaurant See you there! read more

The bbq was amazing Smokey and juicy. It fell apart under a fork and melted in your mouth. The monster stack is enough for two and the small sides are splittable too. Inside is counter service for ordering. The bar is separate. Splitting up to order will save you from getting your food in the bar line. The vibe is hipster Texas barbecue on a patio. Outside seating was nice a 7pm on a mild Feb. night. read more

I am in a food coma writing this review. We sampled the brisket, sausage, turkey, barbacoa, and ribs. We got the Mac and cheese as a side. Everything was 10/10. The brisket was awesome. I recommend giving the Mac and cheese a stir once you get it so some of the cheesy goodness that settles to the bottom can be redistributed to the top. They had a great outdoor seating area. Half is shaded under a structure. The other half is under some trees in a turf area. Great spot to sit on a nice day! They had ample high chairs which is always nice when eating out with kiddos! The only con was lack of dairy free side options for our son with a diary allergy. This doesn't impact 99.9% of patrons but something to note if you are visiting with a dairy allergy. read more

I've had multiple excellent experiences at Panther City BBQ, and it has never missed. Everything is packed with flavor--tender, smoky, and exactly what great Texas BBQ should be. My personal favorite so far is the Southside Slammer. If you want a little bit of everything in one glorious bite, do yourself a favor and order this massive sandwich. It's a game-changer. Indoor seating is limited, but they make up for it with a spacious covered patio that's perfect for enjoying your meal. Definitely check out Panther City BBQ. You won't be disappointed. read more

We were staying nearby at the Sheraton and had heard great things, so of course we were going to stop by and check out a Texas Monthly Top 50 spot that had also gotten some level of consideration from Michelin. The place is small, right off an intersection, with very limited parking. Of course, you have to go inside and wait in line before you get to the front and see the signage letting you know that if you park in the empty lot across the street that you'd get towed. Questionable choice there. The restaurant interior itself is crowded and LOUD. It's a mix of the music and the people. I'll give them credit, though, everyone is having an excellent time. We saw the patio out to the side and it seemed crowded and loud in it's own right, but we were heading back to the hotel to eat. My wife opted for the brisket and smoked mac & cheese. To change things up, I went with the garlic beef sausage and the creamed corn. Naturally, we mixed and matched to create a full meal. The brisket was good, but not anywhere near "best I'd ever had." There was a good bark, but it was a bit dry and unevenly cut. The sausage, on the other hand, was right up there with some of the best I've ever had. I'd come back here for that alone. The mac & cheese was amazing, but the creamed corn was missing something-- maybe some seasoning or jalapeno to give it the kick it needed. Aside from the parking, my only complaint was that for a to-go order, they didn't provide any plastic ware or napkins. That seems like a basic level of service that was completely missed. read more

Great BBQ spot... the brisket is top 5 I've ever eaten and I've had the greats. Bologna was decent, sausage was fine but the whole experience was tops. Great outside seating, great decorations, friendly staff but the best part... the portions seemed larger than the rest. Must try! read more

One of the best BBQ I've ever had. Brisket, pulled pork, sausage were awesome. Collard greens were righteous. A must visit

I wanted BBQ. What I got was... well, meat that looked the part but didn't sing the song. I ordered the ribs, smoked turkey, chopped brisket, potato salad, and spicy vinegar slaw. The atmosphere was great, the place was clean, and the service was friendly. Prices were comparable to other BBQ spots in Fort Worth. So far so good. But y'all... the Q was bland. No smoke flavor, no depth. Honestly, it tasted more like meat cooked in an oven than on a pit. The tenderness was there, but the soul of barbecue was missing. * Ribs/Turkey/Brisket: Tender but flavorless. I couldn't tell it was BBQ. * Potato Salad: Just potatoes with mustard -- no "wow" factor at all. * Slaw: Spicy kick but that's about it. I wouldn't make this my go-to when in Fort Worth and craving BBQ ...Not even for a margarita. Still searching for that smoky, unforgettable bite. read more

My favorite BBQ in DFW! The BBQ landscape in DFW is so competitive, but Panther City never disappoints, and I also love the Mexican fusion in their dishes. My typical go-to's are the brisket (always so good, and I'm picky with my brisket), the elote (a must get - perfection and topped with chopped brisket), and their mac and cheese. This is a super popular spot, so lines can typically be pretty long. Trust me that it's worth the wait, so bring your patience and appetite. Parking is available on the street, and there's indoor/outdoor seating, which even on a busy day I've never had trouble getting a table. Highly recommend! read more

Stopped by Panther City BBQ for lunch and it did not disappoint. When you arrive there is plenty of parking on the street or in the lot across the street. We somehow missed the line as we showed up close to 1 pm on Saturday and didn't have to wait too long. When you walk in you'll need to wait in line and order at the counter. I ordered the brisket elote and a cheddar jalapeño sausage. The brisket elote was so good as usual and I couldn't stop eating it. The sausage was good but had a bit of a hot dog consistency. I definitely recommend eating outside after placing your order as we were treated with good vibes and there was also a dj outside. If you are in the area you'll definitely need to stop by panther city bbq. read more

Unfortunately, we did not have the experience as we expected based on everyone else's stellar reviews on this place. We came at 11:50 AM on a Sunday and they were already out of all pork ribs which we were eager to try. It seems like we got the last few servings of Mac and cheese as well. My honest opinion - The sides were just okay. The cream corn was more of a bland elote corn that was neither sweet nor tangy. The smoked spicy mac and cheese just had soggy jalapeño bits on top and the cheese was quite thicker than expected. The pork belly poppers were sadly very dry. A plus was the brisket which was cooked very well. A tad on the dryer side compared to other competing BBQ places, but it was the best part of the spread by far. Wish we could have tried the pork ribs but not sure if it's worth coming back just to satisfy a curiosity. The environment - Very friendly staff and plenty of outdoor tables for seating and entertainment of large parties. There is also plenty of street parking. read more

This location was in a sketchy part of town. There was not enough parking to accommodate the seating. The cashiers could have had a personality. The menu was clear to read and understand. The special was the half smoked chicken . It was perfectly smoked and juicy. The dill potato salad was OK, not bad. I was just expecting to taste the dill. I felt like it was more of a mustard potato salad than dill. The jalapeño mac & cheese was a little different. It was good. I enjoyed it. It was awkward, ordering my food at one location and then having to order my beer and pay for it separately at a different location in a restaurant. This configuration was not optimal, considering the inside of the restaurant is very crowded and cramped. The other patrons commented on their food as well. They were enjoying the ribs and the two other patrons were also having some adult beverages, which looked good and apparently tasted good. The marinated cabbage coleslaw left something to be desired. The banana pudding was ordinary. The Borracho beans were common also. The brisket was slightly on the dry side. The dining room space is very limited. But the outside space is half covered half not covered is quite large and since this was a beautiful and pleasant evening, I ate outside at the tables and visited with the other patrons. I cannot comment enough on how bad the parking circumstances was. Everywhere you looked it was don't park here. Don't park there. At least the parking was not being charged for. Unlike the Deep Ellum District in Dallas, which charges for everything having to do with parking. I feel like this should've been an optimal night of service because 96.3 the radio station was there, but it just didn't come off that way. And again the cashiers at the front were very offputting and didn't really act like they wanted to be there. I do not believe these cashiers reflect the owners interest in a business. I don't really feel that the restaurant quality is up to the Texas monthly top 50 yet. Perhaps I will visit again soon and see if they have some employees at the front end. read more

I was in the area just the other day running some errands, and I had a weird craving for some BBQ. I live in the Austin area so as such I had to try out one of the highly regarded places in the DFW area. What is the verdict? Atmosphere: Nice quaint spot with a good amount of space. Small bar inside, places to sit, and just this dimmed red lighting. Wooden table tops around with a few higher tables, along with a drink dispenser station that has some utensils that can be grabbed right across from the bathrooms. Straight forward layout. You walk in and turn left, and just walk straight up to the counter. The walls are decored with some pictures and awards, along with some articles. Food: I ordered what I would think would be the trifecta in BBQ (3 different meats on the plate). I ordered the Spicy Smoked Mac and Cheese also along with the Nutter Butter Cheesecake Pudding. The meats I got? Jalapeño cheese sausage, brisket, and smoked turkey. They had sold out of their pork belly which I wanted to try, but all good! The consensus? The presentation was very nice. Some pickled onions and pickles, the meats laid out, and the side dishes to the side of the tray. I ate the turkey first as I normally am not a big fan of BBQ poultry as in the back of my mind, I'm always thinking that it's dry. In this case, the turkey was decent. It was thicker than what I think would be best for the cut. It felt like I was eating a ham. Flavor wise, it just wasn't enough smoke to the flavor so it was lacking slightly. I had to get sauce. Not bad, but texturally--I think thinner with more slices would better work. I ate a few bites without sauce at first. Then I ate with the sauce, and it helped a bit. After I had the jalapeño cheese sausage. Incredible. A tad bit spicy, but this was flavorful, a little gritty, and it tasted nice. I loved the flavor. With the sauce, it pronounced the spice even more. I liked that. Lastly the brisket. This was where I was more disappointed because I heard great things about the brisket. Where I live, almost every spot will ask if you want a lean cut or a moist cut. Here? Just threw it on without any question. It's a first for me out of the bigger name spots I had been to. I had a mix of the two cuts with the cut with the lean side and the moist being fattier pretty much on 2 cuts of brisket. The lean side was a bit dry and felt like if it were smoked just like 30 minutes more that it would be just jerky. I think it rested too long or that it was smoked a bit longer than it needed to be smoked. The fatty side was decent and the bark was decent. I had to sauce this brisket up because I just couldn't eat it on its own. The spicy smoked mac and cheese? Incredible. One of the best mac and cheeses I've had. It was creamy, cheesy, and tasty. The Nutter Butter cheesecake pudding? Also amazing. I loved it. A little sweeter than what I would have liked, but I thoroughly enjoyed it nonetheless. I really liked the pickles and the pickled onions. The customer service here was great. They pretty much picked up after me when I got done eating while I was just sitting there digesting about a pound of BBQ and some heavy sides. My rating? Out of 5 stars with decimals... I think a 4.1 is fair. I think if the brisket gets dialed in along with the turkey, it would be a higher score. I would recommend this spot for anyone stopping by. read more

I have a whole list of bookmarked BBQ places in DFW. We maybe hit two or three a month, though I seem to add more than I cross off, so the list just keeps growing. I think this place won some "Best BBQ in DFW" award in 2021, or something like that, and I can definitely see why. We got lucky and stopped by around 1 p.m. on a Thursday. There was no line, and we found parking right behind the restaurant on the street. I imagine that when it gets busy, parking could be a challenge. We ordered the following: a pork belly popper, a quarter pound of pork ribs, a medium mac and cheese, an order of flacodillas (which is huge and comes with two), and the brisket elote. It was definitely too much food, but we wanted to try a variety of things. It is tough to pick a favorite, but the elote might take the crown for me, followed closely by the flacodilla and the popper. A helpful tip is to always size UP on the sides, For just a couple dollars more, the medium portions are a much better value. The meat in everything was smoky, flavorful, and had just the right amount of tender chew. These guys really know their barbecue. I wish I had saved room for dessert, but I was completely full. read more

Panther City BBQ feels like a restaurant and bar that happens to have really good, but not great BBQ. The line moves extremely fast thanks to the cashier sending orders to the full service kitchen. You don't interact with the meats at all and don't see anybody cutting them unlike most other BBQ establishments. So you miss the fun, but get the speed - a fair trade. For context, I visited on a Saturday at 1130 and had food by 1200. The brisket is very good and their best meat followed closely by the pulled pork. The turkey was dry and borderline bad because of it. The pork ribs reminded me of spare ribs from an Asian restaurant which was fun, but unexpected in a bad way. Everything else was pretty mid. You should visit with a friend or two and get hells half acre to get a sample of everything. The sides are all very good and earn their menu space. Eat in house if you can because it's a fun venue. Theirs indoor and outdoor seating, plus a full bar named Republic Bar. Is this a Michelin worthy BBQ spot? Definitely no. Is it a top 10 in TX? Probably not. It's just a solid tier 2 ish BBQ spot that's worth a visit if you're nearby. Don't go out of your way for it unless you truly hate waiting in lines. read more

Came here on a Saturday afternoon for lunch. We waited about 15 minutes in line and another 35 minutes for the food to arrive. Fortunately, we grabbed an outdoor table and the weather was perfect, which made the wait more enjoyable. All the workers were pleasant and assisted us well in ordering. I ordered the Hell's Half Acre with an extra serving of smoked bologna--highly recommend! For sides, we had the creamed corn, collard greens, mac and cheese, and potato salad.

Went around afternoon and it seems like we beat the rush just in time. The whole time we were there the line was wrapped outside which I think is a testament for how popular this place is. The inside feels rustic, with lots of tvs, neon lights, stickers, and art. There's plenty outdoor seating as well. They take the order for you in the front, and what's unique about this place is they don't prepare your tray while you're ordering, but they take your name and bring it out to you. We were originally planning to order the cowtown platter, but doing the math, it's actually 5 dollars cheaper to order individually. Not sure why. But that's what we ended up doing and ordered more dishes. Our favorite was the spicy smoked mac & cheese. You can really taste the smokiness and the slight kick they put in, and it was cheesy. The jalapeño cheese sausage wasn't too salty, just perfect in my opinion. The pork ribs we ordered were so soft you could even chew on the bone without much work. Normally I've had elotes that are usually sweet, but the one at the restaurant wasn't. Which I don't think is a bad thing, but something to note. If you drizzle some of their bbq sauce I think it adds a nice smoky sweet flavor to it. Pulled pork was also soft and well seasoned, and the brisket was also tender. I think this is a solid traditional bbq place to check out while you're in DFW. read more

Today we went to Panther City to check out Texas BBQ in Fort Worth. We arrived around 1:30pm. No line thank goodness. I heard they often have a line. We ordered at the walk up counter: 1/2 lbs of brisket, pork belly burnt ends, jalapeno cheddar sausage, and their medium Elote corn dish with brisket on top. All in about $65. All 4 items were good. The brisket was tender and moist (my wife's favorite). The burnt ends were caramelized and a little crispy from the BBQ sauce cooked on, the sausage was cheesy and had snap to it, and the elote corn dish was real tasty. I see why Yelpers were recommending this. You can get the elote without the added brisket, but I think the brisket 'shavings' on the top added to the dish. The cashier was Debbie downer and never smiled. Not a good 1st impression. The support staff was also kind of moping around with no energy. The restaurant had this weird vibe. BBQ should be fun and happy, right? Unfortunately, not this shift of employees. Besides the low energy atmosphere, the barbecue was tasty and solid. read more

I'm not saying we are experts but we try to hit all the BBQ joints that get a good bit of recognition and win awards. The ribs at Panther City were everyone's favorite and the brisket was pretty good. We got Mac and cheese and greens as sides. Both were okay but everything in general seemed salty. Panther City was good but not go back good. BBQ is a tough game in TX and I don't envy them. I do like that they have later hours and the live music was nice. Parking is tough and most seating is outdoors so check the weather before you go. read more

4.5 really. The line moved pretty quick, but still took about 20 minutes. I'm my experience, if you don't have a line, something isn't right with the que. You have plenty of time to game plan your order. We went for the smoked brisket, poppers, bologna, elotes, and collards. All were amazing. The brisket tasted like a top ten in the state. Room for improvement based on my taste, but really hit the notes of great Texas bbq. Slightly under salted and the bark was really thick, but only on one side. The elotes are where it's at. I can still taste it in my mind. Such a great balance of flavors. We will be back for a double order next time. The bologna was the only thing i was disappointed with. It was fine at face value, but I have a poultry allergy. I couldn't find out what meats it was, but by my bodies reaction, it's definitely poultry based. I wish they had that listed somewhere. read more
