Bachelor Party Downtown Ft Worth/W 7th... Where to eat?

So I'm organizing a Bachelor Party a week from Saturday. I lived in Fort Worth years ago, but haven't been recently. I do know about the old mainstays like Lonesome Dove, Reata, Joe T's, etc. We will likely end up partying down W 7th late night, but does anyone have any recs for dinner in Downtown/Stockyards/W 7th for a group of guys? Would like something that's not too $$$ for a group of young pro's, students, etc.

Thanks!

    La Familia is on Foch, reasonably priced, and although I've only eaten there a few times everything has been good.

      There's Tillman's Roadhouse (West 7th) ... the quality/service has been a bit uneven in my experience though. Love Shack has both stockyards & W 7th locations--that may be more casual than what you're looking for. Bonnell's is probably too far out of your way, but what about Lambert's? (Not W 7th proper but very close.)

        West 7th (Just past the river) has recently boomed with lots of "young professional" type places (Barcadia, etc.) There's the 8.0 Emporium and the Flying Saucer on Sundance Square.

        *Not a Ft. Worth resident, just get drug there from time to time.

          I don't know about the food at either 8.0 or the flying saucer, but I HIGHLY recommend The Flying Saucer for beers, and LOTS of BEERS. I hope you enjoy, and if it's your batchelor party, I guarentee you will if you start there.

          I usually end up stumbling around The Library after the Flying Saucer. Good places with a lot of people, and good drinks.

          Who needs dinner? Go with the liquid diet :)

            I know about the food at the Flying Saucer ... minimal and German. Used to get dragged there after work all the time ... for someone who doesn't drink beer or like German food, non-ideal ;) The Library is in Dallas, right?

              I don't know if there's one in Dallas or not, but I have been to one in downtown Fort Wroth, grant it, it was a couple of years ago. It was right next door to the dueling piano bar? Just a short walk from The Flying Saucer.

              I heard the piano bar is pretty cool too, never been though.
