Looks like Fort Worthology is reporting that Palermo’s on Magnolia is closing and will be replaced by a second location of one of our favorite Fort Worth Italian eateries, Mamma Mia (which first opened northeast of downtown in the Six Points neighborhood). Guess we’ll have to update our listing. We’re sad to see Palermo’s leave, but Mamma Mia has some great veggie stuff.
Uno Chicago Grill
300 Houston St.

UNO’s menu is ridiculously huge, and spans far further than just pizza. But if you’re craving deep-dish Chicago-style pizza, this is the place to go. They have three or four vegetarian deep dishes, as well as two vegetarian flat-bread pizza. Their non-pizza items include a roasted veggie soup, grilled vegetarian sandwich, veggie burger, and salads. UNO also has a gluten-free menu, which includes a gluten-free tomato and mozzarella flatbread pizza.
Sidewalk or patio dining: No
Pedestrian Access: Excellent
Bicycle Access: Downtown is quite bikeable, but two things to watch out for: high car traffic on weekends from suburbanites who might not know what to do about a bike on the street, and typically skimpy Fort Worth bike rack selection.
Transit access: Downtown is the convergence of all of The T’s bus routes – the system map can help in untangling them. Also, Molly the Trolley (a bus made up to look like an old trolley that runs a simple circulator route through Downtown) is extremely easy to use. Ride it and you’ll be helping get us a real streetcar.
Car access: Parking on street and nearby garages
