Guide to the Best Restaurants in Lake Worth, TX

Lake Worth is a beautiful body of water and a charming community surrounded on three sides by the lake's coast. Here, you will find a community rich with history and local culture, as well as a thriving suburb of Forth Worth. Whether you're living in Lake Worth for the majestic natural beauty or the convenient commute, it should come as no surprise that the restaurant landscape is superb.
Here, you will find an excellent selection of familiar chain restaurants. But the real gems are the local restaurants sprinkled into the mix. While you don't need us to tell you whether you'll enjoy Outback Steakhouse or IHOP, we are excited to share our favorite local restaurants that have made a name for themselves among the hundreds of restaurants on the West side of the Metroplex.

Navajo Burger

Navajo Burger is one of those gems that are hidden in every community. Located just off the exit for Ahoba Drive on the far end of the peninsula, you'll be glad you stopped. We absolutely love the juicy, loaded burgers and everything that goes with them. 

Will you get the thick classic curly fries or the amazing sweet potato fries? An everything burger with all your favorite toppings or a catfish platter with a side of homemade chili? The portions are Texas-sized, the flavors are always perfect, and you'll be making plans to come back before you finish your first lunch.

Ginger Brown's Old Tyme Restaurant & Bakery

Looking for country cooking and a classic Texas diner experience? Head on over to Ginger Brown's Old Tyme Restaurant & Bakery. This is by far the best spot for Texas-sized brunch, with everything from pancake stacks and French toast to fajita omelets. Not to mention the burgers, steaks, biscuits drenched in white pepper gravy, fried chicken, chicken fried steak, crispy catfish, and anything else your country heart desires.

What about the bakery? Like many diners of this style, Ginger Brown's specializes in giant cookies, delicious pies, and cinnamon rolls that you can take home in a box.

Arizola's Mexican Restaurant

Every Texas city needs at least one great Mexican restaurant. For Lake Worth, that Arizola's. You won't find finer TexMex this side of Fort Worth with warm plates bigger than your head overflowing with beans, rice, guac, or flooded enchiladas just the way we like them. Swing by in the morning for the brunch buffet, come through for a lunch that will energize you all day, or bring your entire family for dinner. This cozy family restaurant always has fresh ingredients, beautifully cooked fajitas, and family-sized meals at low prices.

Jimmy's Big Burgers

When you want a really, really big burger, Lake Worth has got you covered. Stop at Jimmy's Big Burgers for a burger as big as your head loaded with all manner of toppings that are tasty on a burger, from avocado to chili cheese. These burgers are huge, greasy, and delicious. You can choose a premade style or build your own with a long list of possible toppings. Sides include spicy fries, sweet potato fries, onion rings, and tater tots. They also have meal deals for parties of 4, 6, and 8 to make ordering that much easier. 

Galilee Falafel & Shawarma

For Mediterranean food, check out Galilee Falafel & Shawarma. You can stock up on your favorite Shawarma, Kufta, Falafel, and grilled meats in a pita wrap or a build-your-own bowl.  Everything is beautifully fresh and prepared to order, with a delicious burst of flavor in every bite. The portions are large and filling with classic dishes that you may already love or will soon mark as new favorites after you explore the entire menu. Desserts include warbat, cheesecake, lazy cake, and occasional specials.

While the venue is small, the vibe is warm and cheerful. There are a few tables to sit and eat, along with comfortable bar seating near the kitchen. But you can always get your order to go. It will still be perfect when you get home.

Mulan Japanese Kitchen

Craving fresh sushi and a friendly vibe? You'll find it at Mulan Japanese Kitchen. While the location is understated, locals know that this is where the best sushi, sashimi, traditional ramen, and classic Japanese cuisine can be found. Not to mention, it's the best place to find authentic Ramune Japanese soda with the little marble in the neck that jingles when you take a sip.

The flavors are always rich and perfectly balanced, and the staff of this family-owned restaurant is always friendly and welcoming. No matter what you order, you're sure to mark Mulan as one of your new favorite spots for lunch or dinner.

Bosses Pizza

Last but never least, it is a good local pizza place. In Lake Worth, that's Bosses Pizza. This charming little brick building really does have boss pizza. With thick crusts and rich cheese that goes almost to the edge, as well as generous toppings, you'll be eating like a boss whether you're ordering pizza solo or throwing a party with your friends.

They also have spicy wings, chili cheese fries, giant calzones, juicy burgers, and fresh salads, so there's something for everyone. If you stop by instead of ordering delivery, you'll love the lunch buffet and the 5-machine arcade, including Midway racing, Galaga, Phoenix, Ms. Pac-Man, and Marvel vs Capcom.
