Little Red Wasp

We love Little Red Wasp! Their comfort food is superbly prepared, always with a flavorful twist. Cocktails are fun, great beer and wine selections, too. The servers are knowledgeable and attentive. All in a fun, casual atmosphere at very reasonable prices.

Cool atmosphere service was good. In my opinion the Shrimp and Grits was average in flavor. At $18 I believe overpriced by 2 dollars. I would have liked to see more shrimp.

Found Little Red Wasp right across the street from the Fort Worth Hilton. The ambiance is up beat and comfortable. The servers were fun, friendly and fast. The beer selection is extensive and the food is on point.I had a chicken ceasar salad that was really well flavorful. The tomato basil soup was excellent and perfect for a chilly February night. The brisket potstickers are unique and crazy tasty. I'd go back just for the potstickers.

This was my 2nd visit and everytime it is just as amazing as the last. Today we were served by Corey. He was very knowledgeable about the drink selection. He was able to engage everyone at our table. He had a conversation with my son about the old school Pat's shirt he was wearing. He spoke with my sis about his grandma retiring from CFWC. We also spoke about how much we loved Strawberries. He was an all around great server. Your standards are impeccable and I will be visiting again. Oh and the star of the show was the food! French Toast, Brisket Potstickers and Crispy Chicken was nothing short of amazing!

If this review is helpful, please LIKE below. OMG! Recommended by the concierge at the Hilton across the street and he was right! Fried chicken is at least one thing awesome on the menu. I had the Nashville chicken which is crazy spicy. Yum. Great beer and wine list. Homemade potato chips and dip. All good .

We loved this place. Such a unique menu and everything was yummy. Had chicken biscuit and chicken sandwich - both there delicious. The staff is great and explained how everything was made. We will be back!

This restaurant is absolutely beautiful. There is a wide range of options on both the food and the beer/wine/liquor menu. They source a wide variety of items from them menus locally (see attached photo). The team knows their menus and were very helpful and informative. We caught the tail end of brunch and decided to try a bunch of appetizers and soup. The Deviled Eggs. Wow! The best I have ever had in a restaurant setting. They are made with local spicy Best Maid pickles. The ratio of stuffing to egg is perfect and you also get a bottle of Crystal hot sauce! We had the Brisket Potstickers and Charred Shishito Peppers which were also excellent! We tried the Tomato Basil and Cream of Mushroom soups which both were thick and had the most amazing herb croutons that were crunchy and paired perfectly with the soups!

Had an appetizer and drink with my wife. Wife and I had a weekend getaway and went to Little Red Wasp for an app and drink. The food was great. We had the dumplings and chips and dip. Great food. Restaurant was relatively empty. We showed up at 5 PM Friday the last weekend of stock show. Staff was very friendly and drinks were good also. Will go back.

Good Lord! The Nashville Hot chicken name definitely undersells the level of heat. But best damn chicken you will ever have!

I celebrated my PhD today in this fine place. happy to tell that we passed a tremendous evening and the restaurant was certainly the reason for that outstanding gathering. The stuff contributed in a pleasant style, the meals were great and my guests were so cheerful. We shall no dout return for more events. Thank you very much.

Little Red Wasp is one of those establishments that comes out out left field and really makes a town shine. Easily the best place in Fort Worth that I've visited, hands down. EXCELLENT happy hour. EXCELLENT food. EXCELLENT guy by the name of Greg running the bar.

Best service in Fort Worth by far. The food is perfect. Right portion size, amazing taste.The beer menu is fun.This is the place to go if you want a taste of Texas.

Great beer selection and an even better wine selection. However, the service was horrible and the food was abysmal. Great ideas but the chef needs to improve upon the recipes and attempt to bring out warm food.

I went in for an extremely quick bite before meeting colleagues for a convention. The manager sat me quickly and had a water and menu in front of me within a few seconds... I ordered the egg salad sandwich, and it was delicious. The entire experience from when I entered until leaving had to of taken no more than 15 - 18 minutes. Would definitely recommend!

Very professional and personable staff! Great food, and the manager tony made our experience awesome!! Host was a great gal too :)

Great atmosphere and delicious food. Some of the best deviled eggs I’ve ever had! The corn beef hash and my wife’s chicken sandwich was huge. While I don’t not partake they appear to have a good drink selection too!

Does in for a quick bite before catching or train. Service was excellent, quick, and accurate. Or server was delightful. One of the best waitresses I have met.

Busy lunch spot obviously popular with the locals. Prompt service and tasty food.

Brunch here is so good! I ordered the chilaquiles and my DH got the French Toast. The service was very attentive, important side note, restrooms here are super clean. This place has a cozy bistro feel to it. Waitstaff are very friendly. The chilaquiles is a Must Try. Smooth scrambled eggs sauteed with house made tortilla chips, fresh pico and warm salsa verde. Just delicious. French Toast is deep fried and has the flavor of a funnel cake topped with syrup and fresh berries. Good basic cup of coffee and my cup was NEVER empty. They have a great selection of cocktails on the menu. This was only my first visit so I can't speak to the other dishes but super impressed this time. Decent brunch hours if you've overslept. Just overall really good, clean, and pleasant. Highly recommended. P.S. they DO have a pear mimosa. I wanted one but I got too full to order it.

I have no problem when a big party arrives and the kitchen gets backed up, I do have a problem with a vegetable so salty it was inedible. We pointed it out to the waitress, she says oh that's how it is due to the bacon. Like it is trendy now. It was INEDIBLE. Okay so you served inedible food and justify it?! Now you're making it worse. I was not looking looking for a freebee, i led to politely mention it to the kitchen if you notice others leaving it on their plate. But now on reflection, I think for 26 bucks a plate, it needs to be right. This is only my second complaint ever on the web. My third not right experience at red wasp. I never leave food and we left food on two. On my boyfriends dish, he left some of the roast and then had a stomach ache for the next 2 hours I think due to meat tenderizer.

We rode the train from Grapevine to enjoy Red Wasp. Came because of Bud Kennedy's newspaper mentions. Delicious portobello burger! Also good burger, made exactly to my request. It was well done, but I prefer M.R., wish I'd asked. Our delightful waitress Misha is very professional. Clean & pleasant. Excellent Texas Bourbon, too! 4pm Happy hour.

Great service! John was very helpful and told us about several items off menu.Thanks!

I admire this venue very much. It has a happy ambiance. The kitcen is tasty. the service is powerful and the stuff is trained. The cost is fair. very much recommend.

This spot is my favorite. I go to a lot of restaurants but to this place I go the most. The crew is very professional and the cooking they serve is so fresh and tasty. I never miss an opportunity to have a nice meal here. Highly recommended.

Stopped in for lunch and really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. There were several options not on the menu, including a Cuban sandwich, which was one of the best I've ever had. Drink menu is Texas-focused, with liquor and beer sourced from Texas breweries and distilleries.

I stopped in just to grab a drink while I walked around the city. The bartender was very friendly and helpful. He suggested this great whiskey drink that came in cool glass. I greatly enjoyed the drink and service was excellent as well. The person beside me had a burger and it looked really good.

Love this place! Great food, ambiance & service. Portions are big-be hungry. Anything you order is a win, including appetizers.

We went there for brunch this morning and enjoyed every bit of our experience there! Valet out front, good food, kind + knowledgeable staff, nice atmosphere. Seats were a little tight as we bumped knees a couple times with those sitting across from us, but all-in-all it was a very good experience. We'll be returning someday!

Great food, slow service.

Menu isn't big, but it looked like a good range of choices. I got the Reuben and it was big and messy. One of the best I've had anywhere. Also, their Dr. Pepper was small bottle with real sugar.

The pear mimosa was crisp and the Blooming Mimosa was beautifully presented. The chicken biscuit was tender with a flaky crust. Even the gravy was perfect.

I'll start with the positives...the local beer and the wine list were solid. I would almost recommend it if you were going for just a happy hour. However, the service was atrocious. As our server hadn't stopped by for a while since apps were served, my party stopped the next server and asked to assist in clearing the table and was told no. ? Huh? They know that service is a part of the gig, right? It didn't get better with the food.

It is a very nice little place, very cozy.

Horrible. Way too much for small portions. Kids meal over priced. Chicken dry and mac and cheese taste like its from a box. Do not waste your money

It is a very enjoyable restaurant with a small but good menu. Great for small groups.

Wings were ok but the happy hour beer flight was good and the loaded fries were good. The menue is great of you love sandwiches. I would suggest going during happy hour if possible.

Food surprisingly amazing. But even more amazing is the drink prices not at happy hour. Right across the street from the Fort Worth Hilton made the Wasp a special treat every day. More than that...... a must!

Ask for Monica, best server there. Deviled eggs and the cocktail I had was phenomenal. They make homemade chips that aren't too thick. Good lunch spot.

We are there last night. They were very busy and shoving people in very tightly. Our waiter was flustered and hardly paid attention to us. The food was expensive and not all the great. I had their chicken dish and it was the driest chicken I’ve ever had. Daughters fried chicken was soggy. I would have returned my food for something different but the waiter didn’t return until my family had finished all their food. Our water wasn’t refilled and we never had the chance to order another drink. Would maybe be better at another time but we won’t be trying it again.

This is a restaurant located right in front of the Hilton hotel on Main St. The place is very modern and the dishes are quite unique. I am not adventurous when it comes to food and love to get something I know I will like. Reading their menu, I was not completely sold with the items listed, but I kept it safe with a chicken sandwich. I was pleasantly surprised and the homemade chips were a nice addition. It's a little pricey.

Just yum! This place checks all the boxes. The dumplings appetizer was real good. Wish this was closer to Dallas.

Staff were great, food was expensive but amazing

The crispy chicken sandwich is phenomenal. Popeyes and chic fil a have nothing on this sandwich. The Reuben is an equally delicious sandwich. It was so good the first night, I’ve eaten there two more times! Their beer, and spirit selections are expansive for those that are picky. You are bound to find something that fits your pallet or try something new. Great place!!!!

Little Red Wasp is a nice place to take a group. I think the menu has something to offer for everyone. There are a few options that are a little more "out there" and a few that are more conservative to suit different palates. We love the brisket potstickers and the crispy chicken sandwich.

This was our second visit, and they've exceeded our expectations both times. The place has a relaxing atmosphere, with friendly, and knowledgeable staff. The food was served hot and fresh, and the drinks were great. We will definitely return the next time we are in town. Always tip well.

I go with my wife to this lovely spot from time to time! This is my favorite place to dine. I go to this spot routinely. The cooking is excellent, the staff is helpful and the price is reasonable. I like being in this place over a nice dinner.

Nice atmosphere. Good food. The chips and dip are my fave. The brunch is pretty hearty. Menu is a bit pricey but I guess average for a restaurant downtown. No close parking, but i think there is valet. Cocktails are always pretty good.

Kinda small food menu, but overall high quality and very delicious. So many beers to choose from, which was really nice. Was not disappointed with that as I had the chance to try multiple new local beers. I probably wouldn't come here for the food again with the limited options, but the beer choices were great.

Wait staff was great. The appetizers were ok. But the entrees are lacking. One person in our party got the hamburger. I've had better at McDonald's.

5 years and we've just found you! Oh so glad. Comfy atmosphere, delicious food and spot on service. (Thanks Mark!) Definitely return.
