Westover Hills is one of the Fort Worth area’s most distinctive small communities — incorporated, quiet, and set apart from the surrounding city in ways that go beyond just the city limits sign. Its residents know what they want, and when the occasion calls for a proper Italian dinner, Joe’s Pizza Italian Cuisine & Bar in Southwest Fort Worth has become the answer that Westover Hills households rely on: a scratch kitchen, a full bar, and a catering option for when dinner comes home.
Westover Hills: A Town With Distinct Standards
Westover Hills is a small incorporated municipality entirely surrounded by Fort Worth — its own community with its own governance and a character that distinguishes it from the neighborhoods next door. The people who live here tend to be particular about quality, whether that’s in how the property is kept or where they go for dinner. Chain Italian restaurants on I-30 handle convenience without handling quality. Joe’s Pizza Italian Cuisine & Bar handles both.
Quality Italian Without Compromise
Joe’s operates a scratch kitchen. The pasta sauces — marinara, Bolognese, Alfredo, vodka pink cream, pesto — are made in-house, and the difference between a plate at Joe’s and a plate at a chain restaurant is the kind of difference that stays with you. The pizza dough is hand-tossed New York style. The dinner specials push well beyond the basics: the Chicken Luigi ($22.00) stuffed with shrimp, spinach, and crab in vodka pink sauce; the Italian Sampler ($18.00) covering four preparations on one plate; the Salmon Arrabiata ($22.00) for anyone who wants seafood done with restraint.
The full menu runs from pizza to baked pasta, chicken, calzones, salads, and desserts. A full bar completes the dine-in picture for adults who want the meal to last longer than the food itself.
Private events and catering: Joe’s Pizza Italian Cuisine & Bar offers catering for gatherings, birthday dinners, and private events. Westover Hills residents, call (817) 945-1765 to discuss your event needs.
